I recently listened to a Muslim terrorist who spoke for all such terrorists. His words hit me in the face like a right cross. He said that Muslim terrorists fervently wish for HARDSHIP. Why? BECAUSE IT KEEPS THEIR MINDS FOCUSED ON THEIR GOD. This is why they destroy everything they win in war. This is […]

Having established the FAITH/WORD/WORK connection, let us see how God values the foundation upon which all Biblical faith and work rest–His Word/Truth (Jn. 17:17). The goal, the focus, the ultimate outcome of the saints “walk” (life work) is to OVERCOME Satan–to WORK/OBEY God’s Word, thereby robbing the devil of a place in the saint’s life. […]

Faith is believing God’s Word. But faith alone is not enough to affect salvation. Faith must be exhibited, else faith is dead. How can one have dead faith? God tells us. One of the favorite names by which man has labeled his religious organizations involves the word “Faith.” Yet approximately 90% of the foundation upon […]

Today the Pope visited a prison where he was met by criminals of every sort whose acts are declared to be sins by the God of the Bible. When asked how the Catholic Church should approach them he replied: “Don’t hand them a rule book; engage them.” In other words, don’t tell them about God’s […]

Biblical faith is believing God’s Word, which is His Truth, His will and His way. With that in mind let us look at Second Timothy chapter three for one of the most plainly expressed statements of God concerning His attitude toward His Word. “But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come […]

Having established the fact that faith is believing God’s Word (Rom. 10:17), let us see how essential that Word is in regard to sanctification, which is necessary for eventual salvation. “Sanctification” is the process by which God “sets aside” a believer for holy living. The “ekklesia” (church–“called out ones”) is “called out” of both the […]

What is true, Biblical, God-commanded faith that must be lived in order to receive eternal life upon the return of Jesus Christ? Upon what is that faith based? In the Garden of Eden Adam and Eve based their faith on what Satan told them rather than on what their Maker had told them. Why? Because […]

Why is the Institutional Church the Lord’s primary mission field? Why not the unchurched? Because the unchurched make no pretense to being His people–the world knows them for what they are. Not so with those in the church, who claim to be followers of the Biblical God while loudly and repeatedly asserting their right to […]

For hundreds of years the Institutional Church system (Catholicism/Protestantism) has been sending people throughout the world in concerted missionary efforts to win the lost to Jesus. They have been very successful in their religious endeavors. Millions have been brought into the system and indoctrinated into one of the hundreds of religious bodies that calls itself […]

Many Americans, including those in the various churches, faiths, denominations, etc. that litter our spiritual countryside, revel in the fact that we are a pantheistic society, welcoming any and all religions no matter how Satanic they may be. “Freedom of religion” has become the mantra of those who believe that our nation was founded on […]
