"Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have b…
Read messageIt just is not possible for someone to walk away from the presence of pure truth and not be affected by it. It has never happened in the history of the world. When pure truth that comes from heaven is spoken, things happ…
Read messageI continue to see it all the time. Too many people just don’t get it. Either do the will of God or go find something else to do altogether. There just isn’t any peace, fulfillment, or satisfaction of soul in being religi…
Read message"Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name" (Psm. 100:4). "Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving l…
Read messageIt is tried, true, and proven; and it is invariable. You simply cannot resist or refuse something that comes from God without paying a serious price for doing so. Whether it be a word of prophecy, a truth of doctrine, a…
Read messageToday I would like to just make a point concerning a couple of topics that have appeared on this page a few times in the past few weeks. If you were to ask a hundred people who profess faith in Christ what the word of Go…
Read messageIt's been said that "a man is only as good as his word." That is a true saying, and nobody exemplifies that like God. Jesus Christ is called "the Word of God," and we know that he is infallibly good. Jesus was and is wit…
Read message"For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because…
Read messageWhile having a discussion with a man a couple of weeks ago, he said something that I’ve heard for a long time from a lot of people. He said that we have to be water baptized because Jesus was water baptized. The mentalit…
Read message"Thou art wearied in the greatness of thy way; yet saidst thou not, There is no hope: thou hast found the life of thine hand; therefore thou wast not grieved. And of whom hast thou been afraid or feared, that thou hast l…
Read messageToday I would like to just focus on a really integral passage of scripture that really brings home the truth about when a believer receives salvation. I had a discussion recently with someone who told me that “the Bible…
Read message"Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble. He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not" (Job 14:1,2). Do you think that maybe Job was being pessim…
Read message"Then said he also to him that bade him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen, nor thy rich neighbours; lest they also bid thee again, and a recompence be mad…
Read messageI often have people who try to impose the modern traditional 'new birth' doctrines on me or on someone who is in my care in the Lord. Of course I’m talking about “getting saved,” “accepting the Lord as your personal savi…
Read messageIn today’s age of information with the internet and other sources, we see the scriptures fulfilled that said in the last days “many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased” (Dan. 12:4). Make no mistake my…
Read message"It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting: for that is the end of all men; and the living will lay it to his heart. Sorrow is better than laughter: for by the sadness of the counte…
Read messageMost people who come to this page and read the articles that are written here daily know that I am very persistent on exhorting Gods’ people who are baptized with his Spirit to forsake the traditions and doctrines of mod…
Read messageIt’s really strange how the traditions and doctrines of men that populate modern Christianity have trained those who are under them, including God’s Spirit baptized children, to have a zeal for defending sin. I received…
Read messageIt seems that just about everyone loves this saying of Jesus: "Judge not, that ye be not judged" (Mat. 7:1). The problem is a whole lot of the people who love that saying love it for their own wickedness sake. What am I…
Read messageIt never ceases to amaze me. The devil ALWAYS turns everything around backward when you are warring against him. ALWAYS!! Actually he can do nothing else, “Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not sub…
Read messageI am still thinking today about the Bible and about the word of God. I would like to explain in just a little more detail exactly what the difference between the two are. The fact that the Bible is not the word of God, a…
Read messageI've long known that the fear of God is the main ingredient missing in the modern 'Christian Gospel.' In fact I've preached more times than I can remember that the biggest problem in this nation is a lack of faith in God…
Read messageI write rather often about certain topics that are of great significance to the faith of God’s people. I put up a post on “Bible Idolatry” sometime around a couple of weeks ago, and I have some more on that topic today.…
Read message"And king Zedekiah the son of Josiah reigned instead of Coniah the son of Jehoiakim, whom Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon made king in the land of Judah. But neither he, nor his servants, nor the people of the land, did h…
Read messageI have just a couple of words today on how the devil manages to become some people’s interpreter for what they hear and for what they are doing in their lives. In the parable of the sower and the seed, Jesus describes fo…
Read message"O LORD God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee: Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine ear unto my cry; For my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh unto the grave. I am counted w…
Read messageJust a few thoughts today on idolatry. Why did the people in ancient times make idols to themselves, and worship these false dieties? I mean it really doesn't make much sense in any way, on the surface at least. Well, ac…
Read messageI’ve seen it time and time and time again through the years. The traditions and doctrines of men in modern Christianity have severely warped the thinking of God’s people and caused the ancient prophesy of Hosea to be ful…
Read messageToday I want to get down to the “ONE hope” of the Gospel, and see exactly what it is (Eph. 4:5). It’s what it’s all about when it’s all said and done, so let’s see what the scriptures show us about this one hope. The apo…
Read messageJust a short follow up on the post from yesterday about the parable of the good Samaritan. Today I just have a simple question: What would have happened to the man who was beaten, robbed, and left for dead, if the Samari…
