Read messageProverbs 23:7 tells us that what we think about is generally what we are: “As he thinketh in his heart, so is he.” Jesus was surely in agreement with this, and gave us just a bit more detail on it: “A good man out of the…
Read messageEvery religion claims its God or gods, and of course that includes Christianity as well. There is obviously a stark difference between the God that Christianity claims, as opposed to every other religion. That difference…
Read messageIf I’ve seen it once, I’ve seen it a hundred times. Well, actually a whole lot more than that unfortunately. God’s dear people are sheep without shepherds. I couldn’t count the times that I’ve seen precious souls in the…
Read messageToday I would like to start my post with a question. What is the record that God has left here with us, that shows that he indeed sent his Son to die for our sins, and that he did surely raise from the dead? If you just…

Read messageI just want to say a few words about the sabbath today. There is a sabbath to be kept, but it is not the one that most religious folks think it is. “Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of a…
Read messageIt has long intrigued me how the Jews tried to demand of Jesus to show them some sign to confirm who he claimed to be: “Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from…
Read messageJust a few words here today on how people are in opposition to themselves so oftentimes. “And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus was Ch…

Read messageJust a short post today, but to the point nonetheless: “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lus…

Read messageYou can run but you can’t hide. Nowhere and in nothing is this more true than with God. The froward and frivolous of today are the broken and lowly of tomorrow. You can hide behind deceit, be it playfully or maliciously,…
Read message"Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not love, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and…

Read message"And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house. And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the…
Read messageAlmost a year ago I had occasion to meet and speak with a certain denominational Christian minister. As soon as he realized I was a minister he asked me, “So what does it take to get to heaven?” I liked that because he w…
Read messageThe question today is, Are you of the letter, or of the spirit? You cannot be of both. It is quite an important question to be able to answer accurately and honestly, seeing that the scripture plainly states, “But now we…
Read messageWhat is the kingdom of God, or the kingdom of heaven, whichever way you may prefer to say it? This is an all important question, because the Gospel of Christ, according to John the Baptist, Jesus, his twelve apostles, an…
Read message"A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity" (Prov. 17:17). This one verse can really sum up our calling as children of God, as pertains to relationships that we have among ourselves. The apostle P…

Read messageJust a few words today on something that the Lord let me understand many years ago, which becomes more significant to me every day. It has to do with the first type of soil in the parable that Jesus told about the sower…
