What do you think of others? Do you size-them-up: know their sins and think less of them, or think they are great because you like how they look or like how much they have? Remember that God does not wait for us to be perfect. He wants us to come to Him just as we are, now. Even so, even as Christ, no matter the sin – we love the sinner. There is no excuse for us to put-down another. There is no sin too great – nothing that God cannot forgive.
Don’t Be An Idiot
It really IS quite plain to see: this world and all of us creatures – could not possibly ever have come to be – without an intelligent designer, God, making us. Don’t be an idiot! An idiot is someone who does something or says something (believes something) that is moronic. Don’t be a moron. A […]
Creating a Space for Communication
Have you ever found yourself at a stalemate in communication with your spouse? Used with Permission. Source: http://www.fathershouseoc.org/ You both seem to be talking at each other, but nothing is getting accomplished. Maybe this then escalates to higher emotions and further division in unity. At our retreat we discussed a process we can go through […]
IF You Follow Me
Scripture says IF we follow Christ, then we are worthy of Him. The very real reverse implication is – if we are NOT following Him in our daily living… then we are not worthy to stand in His presence on That Day. Scary thought.
Shortest Conversion in the Bible
39 One of the criminals who were hanged there was hurling abuse at Him, saying, “Are You not the Christ? Save Yourself and us!” 40 But the other answered, and rebuking him said, “Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? 41 And we indeed are suffering justly, […]
Are You Seeking God?
Satan blinds the eyes of seekers, those who want to know more about the Creator, those who wonder, “Could it be God who made all this?” But God is greater than Satan. Ask God to reveal Himself to you. “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.” (James 4:8)
Logs
My 3 year old grandson, Levi, was busily building log contraptions on the floor of our living room after Christmas. Two little older cousins were also there playing. We adults were chatting at the dining table nearby. Out of the blue Levi says, “Hey guys, did you know that Jesus died on a cross for […]
Brand New Creature
I so totally love the truth taught by the Apostle Paul – about becoming “a brand new creature”. Read for yourself 2 Corinthians 5:17 ¨Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.¨ – 2 Corinthians 5:17 This is what happens when a […]
Creation Is Important
God did not have to create us, you know? And when man chose to oppose Him, God could have eliminated all mankind. But He chose instead to make a way to keep man forever alive. Within His perfect justice system, God established a legal immigration path for sinners to enter His Kingdom! How incredibly valuable […]
Me, When I Die, forgiven
Do you know what will stand in the Court of God in His Holy Kingdom? What will not? God shows us in the Bible – what’s what. What we think, well, how can that count for much in His infinite knowledge?
Me, When I Die, still in sin
What difference does it make – who I am when I die? An eternal difference!

If You Are a Jew
If you are a Jew, you MUST be looking for your Messiah, still… unless you believe already that Jesus was the Christ. So, my question is: Have you seriously considered the claims of the NEW TESTAMENT about your Messiah?
Evidence. What Evidence?
God has provided us with plenty of evidence to show Himself to us, to show us the truth of the resurrection of Jesus after His crucifixion, to show us the Truth and reliability of His Word, the Bible, and so much more. Evidence is clear and speaks truth. Believe it.
The Name of God
The use of the word “Allah” Resources available fromTHE PEOPLE OF THE BOOK: http://www.thepeopleofthebook.org This missionary organization is “following Isa along the straight path”. We desire to share the Good News of ‘Isa al-Masih‘ (Jesus the Messiah) with the growing Muslim community in the world. To know the only true God, honor and obey Him, […]
Faith and Works
Without faith it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6), but faith is incomplete without works.It is true: faith alone is the requirement for salvation. But faith without works is dead. Works alone cannot save (Ephesians 2:8-9). Turn to Jesus with all that you are, all that you do.
Oh what a day that will be!
Wow! To enter into the Kingdom of God – freely as His redeemed child. No cringing in shame, no shaking knees, sweating in fear, no burden of sinfulness before a Holy God. I can only imagine.
Proof for the Resurrection
As we celebrate Easter, I believe it is important to reflect on what we are really celebrating. We are celebrating the event that literally changed history. Jesus Christ’s death and resurrection sparked a change in the history of the world. All of this brings us to this one question: What are you going to do with the resurrection?
Humbleness Before God
One might ask: What might the Church have done that could have slowed down today’s relativism and our entitlement culture? The answer: Nothing. God set His Church in motion, right behind Christ’s death, right? So everything was optimal for us. The Holy Spirit now indwelt the believer. All the teachings were there for us. All […]
God Damned On Earth
Being God damned on earth is to be simply living your life – without Christ, living in rebellion against God….
Being God Damned
What will it be like to be God damned in hell?
The Damning God
These days everyone has their own idea of what life is and what we are doing here. We sing “what’s it all about?” Have you stopped, in the whirlwind of your life, to think about God? God has spoken to man – through the Bible. And He is the One that made it all happen. Doesn’t that sort of trump us all? Shouldn’t the Truths of God take precedence over whatever it is that we play around with in our minds? The damning God …and the forgiving God: One God. Have you been forgiven by God?
Ravi Zacharias
Dr. Ravi Zacharias Source:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjpokXUpL1o Zacharias was born in Madras, India. Zacharias claims descent from a woman of the Nambudiri Brahmin caste and Boatman caste. Swiss German missionaries spoke to one of his ancestors about Christianity and his family was converted. Zacharias grew up in a nominal Anglican household, and was an atheist until the age […]
No Sin – No Problem
Want to have sin when you go before The Judge? What the Hell? Don’t you want to go to Heaven? Only Jesus Messiah was “without sin”. Me, you… not a chance. We need His pure forgiveness!
Let God Damn – Not You
The first place to start teaching about any sin is with kindness, love, and a non-condemning attitude… sort of as close to Jesus’ way as possible, like when he confronted the adulterer and the crowd condemning her. The first thing Jesus did was get the harshness off the sinner – by getting rid of the […]
Add the True Redeemer to Avatar
Add the True Redeemer to Avatar. Watch a Wycliffe presentation on a primitive tribe somewhere, or a Nate Saint “Auca” movie, and you get the basic story-line of Avatar’s Na’vi tribe on the planet Pandora. The only thing missing in Avatar, of course, is the Wycliffe biblical producer, who would have added the redeeming element […]
The Justice of God
The justice of God is seen throughout the Bible. And it all points to Jesus.
Look at the Life of Jesus
It is interesting when we look at the life of Jesus. We learn several things about Him: He was God. Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1; Revelation 1:8; 22:13, 16; John 8:58. He was the Creator of the Universe. John 1:3, 10; Colossians 1:16; 1 Corinthians 8:6; Hebrews 1:2. He became a man. John 1:14. But He […]
This Is It
THIS is it! This is my life. God gave it to me. Every moment. I can do with it whatever I choose. Not every moment is stellar, but… this moment is part of it all. Put it all together, and it makes up — my life. There’s no sense in waiting for something else to come along! What else!? This is it! THIS is my life.
