To the Truth-hungry student of the Holy Bible one thing becomes apparent upon reading Genesis 1:26-31, Leviticus 26:1-13 and Deuteronomy 28:1-14: GOD LOVES HIS MOST PRIZED CREATION (MAN) AND WANTS TO BLESS HIM WITH ALL MANNER OF BLESSINGS COVERING EVERY ASPECT OF HIS LIFE. This has been His desire from the moment He formed Adam […]

God does not change: “In Him there is no variation, no shadow of turning”/ “He is the same yesterday, today and forever”/ “I am the Lord, I change not” (Jam. 1:17/ Heb. 13:8/ Mal. 3:6). He is also “no respecter of persons” (Acts 10:34)–what He does for (or to) one He will do for (or […]

In his epistle to the Church at Ephesus the Apostle Paul told the congregation (and us) that there is “one Lord (Jesus Christ) … (and) one God and Father of all ….” This epistle was written sometime in the mid-50’s A.D. to a church system that was already in the process of moving away from […]

I prepare to write this series with a heavy heart. Though I have written about this subject a number of times, I am compelled once again to do so, this time bearing a sense of urgency I am sure has been brought on by the Lord’s reminding me of the disaster that my beloved nation […]

The Prophet Elijah went to heaven, we are told by the religious masses. But is what “everyone knows is true” in fact, true? First, we must understand that “heaven” is all space above ground and sea level. Genesis 1:20 and Jeremiah 4:25 tell us that birds fly and build their nests in heaven. There is […]

An ancient church hymn that I have sung many times in the past proclaims, “When we all get to heaven, what a day of rejoicing that will be. When we all get to heaven we will sing and shout the victory.” I believed those words and later preached them. I was “alive” then. But when […]

I have been where some of you probably are right now. After hearing a perverted version of God’s Gospel for many years, things changed drastically when I learned the truth. I could not wait to share the true Gospel with members of my family. Big mistake. What I thought would be embraced with open hearts […]

I once had a seminary student explain Christ’s mission on earth in this way: JESUS KNEW THAT SALVATION SEEKERS HAVE NO CONTROL OVER SIN, THAT, BECAUSE OF ADAM’S BLUNDER, SIN BECAME PART OF MAN’S SPIRITUAL INHERITANCE. THEREFORE, JESUS DIED SO THAT MAN COULD DO WHAT WAS “NATURAL” WITHOUT SUFFERING THE CONSEQUENCES LIKE NON-CHRISTIANS WILL HAVE […]

General Sherman knew what was needed to defeat the enemy during the American Civil War. In Texas terms, his army had to follow the following directive: “If it moves, kill it; if it stands, level it.” Harsh? Yes. Necessary for victory on the battlefield? Yes. The same mind-set is necessary when it comes to spiritual […]

“Obeying God is just too much trouble.” That is a quote spoken to me by an ex-summer missionary who, as a teenager, “served the Lord” as a student missionary. At the time of the statement she was approximately 60 years old and was still “a good Christian” because she did not drink, smoke, go to […]
