Only God can determine spiritual Truth and error, right and wrong, good and bad, righteousness and evil. Those who embrace this Scriptural Truth believe Deuteronomy 13:3,4 where we are told that we must not only love the Truth Decider with our total being, but must PROVE OUR LOVE FOR HIM. Which raises the question: How […]

Perhaps the major problem within professing Christendom stems from the fact that church people judge a minister’s standing with God by his personality, charm, speaking voice, congregation size, miracles, signs, wonders, etc., and not by his strict adherence to God’s Word. It is commonly assumed that the larger the crowds, the greater the miracles, the […]

The all-important question for those who seek to spend eternity with the Lord is: “Does He know me?” Obviously He knows every soul ever born in a general sense. But the question concerns His knowing us intimately. It is said in Genesis 4:1 that Adam “knew” his wife and she conceived. Obviously, he knew her […]

In 1 Corinthians 8:2 the Apostle Paul addressed those in the congregation who preferred their own version of Truth over God’s version, telling them that they did not know what they thought they knew (spiritual Truth), and that in fact they knew nothing about the ways of the Lord. THESE WERE PEOPLE IN GOD’S TRUE […]

IDOL: An image of a god.                                                                                                   […]

Concerning the supposed “last minute salvation” of the thief on the cross, some might point out that he had not done any of the things one is commanded to do in order to qualify for salvation, none, that is, that has been recorded. But let us recall the man who arrived at the vineyard an […]

It has been assumed for almost 2000 years that the thief on the cross knew nothing about Jesus of Nazareth, what He taught, His works, etc., before being crucified with Him. That this is a false assumption based on wishful thinking and the teachings of Satan’s false prophets will become clear as we study this […]

There are a surprising number of Scriptural passages that Satan has edited, repackaged and sold to those within professing Christendom a “new and improved” version of “thus says the Lord.” A good example of the devil playing his “Bate and Switch” game is found in Acts 16:31. See the series by that name. In Acts […]

In the previous posting I listed a number of things the original apostles had done while being with Jesus for 3 1/2 years, living and ministering in His name (Mat. 7:22). These men, through their writings, have told future converts what they must do in order to qualify for eternal life. Yet we are not […]

Considering all that the 12 disciples had learned from Jesus and all they had done in terms of ministry, one would assume that they were one with their Maker. However, this was not the case according to Christ’s Words to the Apostle Peter during a conversation the two had concerning his and the other disciples’ […]
