Live in peace with one another. 14 We urge you, brethren, admonish the unruly, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with everyone. 15 See that no one repays another with evil for evil, but always seek after that which is good for one another and for all people. 16 Rejoice always; 17 pray without ceasing; 18 in everything […]
Forgiveness By God
Anyone at anytime with sincerity and truth – can find forgiveness in Jesus for anything. The key word there? Sincerity. God sees the thoughts and intents of our heart. No foolin’ with God.
Patterns of Evidence
A debate rages over the credibility of the Bible. Most archaeologists today have concluded that there’s no evidence that the Exodus of Israelite slaves from Egypt ever happened. Filmmaker Timothy Mahoney faces a crisis of faith, “Is this foundational event of the Bible really just a myth?” He embarks on a 12-year journey around the world to search for answers. -A 2 hour presentation from the site: www.rightnow.org
Sinners, versus living in sin
For as long as we are in this body of flesh, beset with its weaknesses and predilections, we believers struggle with sinning. But we will not live in a lifestyle of sin. We are all “sinners”. All of us are failing God in many ways – disobedient, time and time again. However, the born again believer does not accept sin in their life. They fight it!
Opting Out
37 And He [Christ] said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ – Matthew 22:37 Are you opting-out from loving God with all you are? Do you think that if you opt-out in any way… you are still really truly […]
The Sower and the Seed
The Sower and the Seed 18 “Hear then the parable of the sower. 19 When anyone hears the [i]word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. This is the one on whom seed was sown beside the road. 20 The one on whom […]
Enlightened Folks
Are you one of those? The many “enlightened” folks who have tasted what God does in Christians, maybe even liked it… but you haven’t really yielded to God, you haven’t truly choosen to follow Him? Have you fallen away?
Ambition and Humility
Leaders have AMBITION—a passion for accomplishment and a drive to make a difference. But Christians are called to be HUMBLE. In a cultural and political context where winning, success, and narcissism are all rewarded, how can we balance ambition and humility? How can we achieve and seek excellence while practicing low concern for ourselves? – […]
Philippians 2:3
“3 Do nothing [a]from [b]selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves;” – Philippians 2:3 Footnotes: Philippians 2:3 Lit according to Philippians 2:3 Or contentiousness
Windows Into Heaven
Jesus taught that there is a physical place called “heaven”, or “paradise”. It is actually way beyond what we know as “physical”. Imagine heaven. See it from Bible “windows”, the perspective of what He told us Heaven is…
Legally Damned – Legally Forgiven
Are you still legally condemned before God? Or have you been legally set free forever?
The Scariest Verse In The Bible
Scripture says it loud and clear: It is not what you SAY, but what you DO, that counts with God. Read it here: Matthew 7:21-23 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. Many […]
Following Someone
Are you ready to meet your Maker? Have you considered the possibility that someday God might reject you? Do you truly “follow” Him?
Genuine Or False
Are you genuine? “The real thing?” If Jesus put you on trial, would there be enough evidence to prove you guilty of being a born again Christian?!
God’s Normal
There are several lists in Scripture showing us what IS part of the normal Christian life. We each must search “our inner self”. Do you know that God indeed sees you in this way? Do you truly “walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called…?” (Ephesians 4: verse 1). God knows. Here are four passages of what “normal” looks like:
Practicing Sin, Not Following Christ
Are you practicing sin? Is there sin you constantly practice? Have you grown accustomed to accepting [“your” sin] as okay with God? Are you okay with the practices of your life? Scripture teaches us very clearly what is obviously …NOT following Christ. In fact, we are warned that “that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.” You are not following Christ if this is characteristic of you: Galatians 5:16-21.
Following
Where’ you going? Are you truly “following” Christ? This is what it means to be “a follower” of the real Jesus Christ…
The Roman Road
The “Roman Road” to Salvation is simply a compilation of verses in the book of Romans that clearly explains the message of salvation in Christ. Quite a help in understanding how to get born again.
Children of God
Erroneous beliefs abound. One says: since God created us all – then all of us are his children, right? Wrong. The Bible says Jesus “gives the right” to become children of God.
Prayer of Repentance
What is a “Prayer of Repentance To Christ”? Here is an example.

Matthew 7:21-23
Works. Sincerity. 21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out […]

Romans 8:38
Secure In Him 38 For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. –Romans […]
