"The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall come out of trouble" (Prov. 12:13). It never ceases to amaze me. People think that because they have a mouth to talk with, that their words mean…
If you hold to the ceremonial law of the old covenant you are denying what Jesus suffered, died, and rose again to establish: "But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterw…
There were three kinds of laws within 'the law' of the old testament. One being the moral laws, secondly the civil laws, and thirdly the ceremonial laws. Moral laws applied to the manner in which people are required to l…
I would like to take a short but meaningful look at a vastly overlooked scripture today: "Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life" (Prov. 4:13). Most people probably look at this scri…
Yesterday’s post was on the subject of “judge not,” so it may seem strange to some that today’s post is on “judge righteously.” But the fact is, everyone judges all the time, whether about situations, people, or any myri…
I just can't seem to write enough articles about this particular subject. It must be that a whole lot of folks need to give these things some serious consideration. I'm talking about hiding. Anyone who is hiding somethin…
Are you on a journey today my friend? Well, once a long, long time ago, a lot of folks were on a journey as well. Many were coming from throughout Israel to come to Bethlehem to pay their taxes (Lk. 2:1-5). It so happens…
The earmark of a self righteous, religious spirit is to condemn others for their faults, or for their supposed faults. The Pharisees of Jesus' day continually manifested this trait, magnifying the sins of others and accu…
"Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again" (Mat. 7:1,2). If you want to fend off as much undue woe as possibl…
"I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not ca…
The prophet Micah asked a really good question that many folks today should be asking, regarding what it is that God is looking for from his people. He also gave us the all important answer to this question: “Wherewith s…
I have just a few notes today on the relevance and importance of studying the old testament scriptures. First of all, did you know that Jesus and the apostles after him preached Jesus Christ exclusively from the old test…
Ever since sin entered into the world in the garden of Eden man has been hiding from God. After Adam followed Eve’s lead on disobeying God’s commandment, the scripture says, “And they heard the voice of the LORD God walk…
I have just a few Bible quotes to look at today. These aren't of the cheery nature, but they're sure as heck of the true nature. If you want it straight and if you want it real, here they are; and note the first and the…
I would like to look at some scriptures today, which in themselves tell a very big story, regarding doing what is right in the sight of God, or doing what is wrong. And after all, those really are the only two choices we…
So many folks have this major hangup with speaking in tongues. They'll go right along with everything you have to say, and then balk like a big-dog when the sign of speaking in tongues comes into the discussion. Truth is…
People simply have no ideal just how much they are continually being manipulated and domineered by demons. The truth is, if you are not presently walking in the Spirit of God, and being taught by the same, then you are u…
The state of being truly and completely hopeless is indeed a very real thing. Same goes for having done too much evil to be redeemed. And being worthy and certain of eternal damnation is also a very real state. And not b…
There is a great conflict that almost all of God's people are dealing with today, some more so than others. That conflict is between the heart and the mind. The erroneous traditions and doctrines of modern Christianity h…
It is wise to always keep in remembrance something that God spoke to the ancient prophet and judge, Samuel: "for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the hea…
After healing a blind man, and after the Pharisees were much displeased by it, Jesus told them a hard saying: "Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin rem…
God is preparing to do some very big things in the earth. In fact he's preparing to do the biggest things that he has EVER done in the earth. The best quote I can give from the Bible about this last move of God that is s…
I want to set forth some truth and reality today about what it means to be 'redeemed,' and also what it does NOT mean. In the old testament, if someone became poor and had to sell themselves into servitude to someone els…
