Ever thought about this?…how “for salvation in Christ — hating is life changing”? Part of Jesus’ message says: 1 John 3:14 We know that we have passed out of death into Life, because we love the brothers and sisters. He who does not love remains in [spiritual] death. Hate is “eternal-life-changing”. Scary thought. Are you […]
How then should we live now… believing the Rapture is just around the corner?
The Rapture is coming! In my heart I am leaping with joy! So now what? How should we go about with living our daily life — now that we believe the Rapture is just around the corner?
Are you one of the 18 percenters?
What is the “worldview” of Jesus, according to the Bible? Is Jesus’ worldview your worldview?
Following Jesus is not fascism
Jesus was not a fascist, and neither are His followers. Of course some fakes, the fake faith so-called Christian types may be whatever catches their fancy, but not any genuine Christian (absolutely none). Christian theology and practice in America today is somewhere very far from the fascism spectrum. This should be obvious to the world, […]
Is Jesus’ worldview your worldview?
Jesus shared His worldview throughout the entire Bible. So we know what Jesus believes. Then the question must be asked: Is Jesus’ worldview actually your worldview?
Fearing God with awe-filled reverence
For those of us who have a heart 100% given-over to Jesus – it is natural to “fear” God, in the sense of: we have a heart full of “awe-filled reverence”. How we speak to others should be filled with respect and awe of God. You seeing that in you?
Snatched by God
The word Rapture means “to snatch up or seize” unexpectedly. In Old Testament times two individuals were seized by God, or “snatched up”. Both Enoch (Genesis 5:24) and Elijah (2 Kings 2) were walking along one day and – suddenly they were gone, snatched-up by God! So we know it is not unprecedented. God will do it again. Jesus, and the Apostle Paul, and several others (Luke 21:36) – have prophecied that a “Rapture” will take place in the End Times.
What’s living rent-free inside your head?
There’s a whole bunch of ornery characters taking up space inside ya’lls head. Are you feeding them?
Works of the flesh
Galatians 5:19-21 Now the practices of the sinful nature are clearly evident: they are sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality (total irresponsibility, lack of self-control), idolatry, sorcery, hostility, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions [that promote heresies], envy, drunkenness, riotous behavior, and other things like these. I warn you beforehand, just as I did previously, […]
He who raised the Lord Jesus will also raise us with Jesus
do not get discouraged nor lose your motivation In these troubled times, God is urging His followers to not become discouraged. With all that is happening in these end times (COVID 19 pandemic, sickness, riots and violence, the increase of evil, financial woes, job loss, mental health, difficult relationships), we have to make a concerted […]
Why “not kneeling” is the correct Christian response, this time
You don’t always want to kneel – just because “the whole world” is kneeling, not now at stadiums during the singing of our national anthem — and certainly NOT when the Antichrist is asking you to kneel during The Great Tribulation (which is coming to the entire planet sooner than you think). Nowadays there’s a […]
God hates divorce but does He allow it anyway?
Someone recently said to me: “Evangelicals must make the biblical case against divorce. God Hates Divorce.” Agreed. The preferred sentiment is to always err on the side of preserving the sanctity of marriage. Divorce, in the case of adultery, is God’s permissive will – not an obligation or mandate. If one can find the inner […]
Voting Dichotomously
Are you living a dichotomous life… serving two masters?
Trophimus I left sick at Miletus
Sometimes we get sick. And sometimes prayer, as earnest as you can be, leaves us not-healed. What’s with that?
Pleasure and bad behaviors we love to fall for
We love simple pleasures. Don’t we? Life is good. God is good. The problem with pleasure is: Not all pleasure is of God. Jesus said we need to clean our insides – so that our outsides can then live-out worthy behavior. Pick a sin – any sin – and discern where you are at. Judge yourself all day long. Romans 12:2.
We are pressured in every way, but not crushed
The Apostle Paul wrote that the normal Christian life is full of uncomfortableness. Every day modernity seeks evasive Garden of Eden lifestyles of bliss. Heaven will be that good! But here — not so much. Sin has destroyed that for us, for now. We should not be surprised by pain and sorrows. As believers we […]
I would rather stand with God and be judged by the world. Yes!
I really liked this comment by Robert Burns – a good little twist of words on J.D. Farag‘s YouTube: What the future holds: (Read comments at end of this article. I have copied some to the FOR MORE section below.) robert burns 1 month ago: I would rather stand with God and be judged […]
This is natural for us so put it on
Because the true believer is enabled by God through the Holy Spirit (He resides in all who are born again) there is a lot of what is “natural” to us now. But we must “put it on” (verse 12 of Colossians 3:12-17).
Today’s “perilous times” right out of Bible prophecy
We are living in the midst of days foretold by prophets of long ago. Today’s “perilous times” are right out of the prophecies by Jesus Christ, and, the Apostle Paul, Isaiah, Daniel…. Read it and weep – joyfully: for what the Lord Jesus predicted… is happening right in front of our eyes. We are living […]
God takes care of sinners
We all sin. The allurements of the enemies of our soul entrap us with sin, saying, go that way. The message of Christ says, repent, turn this way. “I am the way, the truth, and the life….” We struggle not to sin. So, what kind of sinner are you?
Being wise in a very unwise world during these End Times
Have you noticed how very unwise the people of the world are becoming? James contrasts earthly wisdom with wisdom that comes from God. Where are you at? Earthly Superficial Wisdom: James 3: verses 14-16 “[superficial] wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly (secular), natural (unspiritual), even demonic“: 14 But if you […]
Exposing a dichotomous heart
You do not have to get sinless to get saved, but God does require a fully committed heart. A dichotomous heart is a divided heart – not sold-out to Jesus. A “this-way-that-way-two-sided-heart” cannot be saved. What kind of commitment do you have to Jesus?
Yes I can – I can stand strong
I can stand strong. Yes. “God is my refuge and strength, an ever present help in times of trouble.” – Psalm 46:1
Perilous times are here
Technologies are like putting a blow torch to a fire! Our evil quotient is increasing almost daily, just as Jesus predicted.
The Christian’s mission of love every day
Sharing the blessed hope we have in Christ – THAT is our mission, every day, all day, anywhere, however we can, in love.
Act in love towards all peoples
Based on 1 Corinthians 13:4-7; Matthew 25:41-46; Hebrews 13:2; 3 John 1:5. Acts of love I can do… in Christ: I will be friendly, cordial, and gracious to all people, in all circumstances, even if I am miffed, or feel wronged. I will look-out for anyone being overlooked or ignored, and be gracious and loving […]
Concurring with the Devil
Scary thought: Have you thought of this possibility… that you might be agreeing with the Devil himself? According to the Bible, there are only two major players in the entire universe: God Almighty and Lucifer, God’s mightiest created angel, who wanted to be God, and fell from God’s grace, often called “the Devil”. Are you […]
Why do church
The local church is full of both (1) bible believing, born again believers and also (2) God-damned believers. Both the wheat and the tares are in the mix of those who identify with the Church. But one is not really of Christ. Which are you?
When I find myself in times of trouble, I turn to Jesus
Jesus is our answer in times of trouble. I am learning to cast it all on Him — knowing He cares about me.
Require Justice
Take the pledge for yourself: I will require justice. I will challenge injustice. I will examine myself. And if injustice is in me, I will confess it, repent of it, and change my ways. I will discern right from wrong – make judgements only by Scripture. If injustice is in my family, my neighborhood, my […]
