The Challenge of Our Generation

“Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses” (1 Timothy 6:12). Believe it or not, Satan isn’t fighting against God. Somehow, at one time in my thinking, way in the back of my mind,Continue reading “The Challenge of Our Generation”

Jesus Never Promised To Take Us To Heaven When He Returns!

That’s probably the first time many of you have heard that or even considered it. But it’s true. Nowhere in the New Testament are we told that when Jesus returns He will whisk us off to Heaven. The scriptures tell us “the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remainContinue reading “Jesus Never Promised To Take Us To Heaven When He Returns!”

Ambassadors of His Name

“You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain” (Genesis 20:7).

Really, What Is New Testament Worship? (2)

Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where one ought to worship.”Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worshipContinue reading “Really, What Is New Testament Worship? (2)”

Biblical Healing (5): The Works of God Revealed

“Now as Jesus passed by, He saw a man who was blind from birth. And His disciples asked Him, saying, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”Jesus answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but that the works of God should be revealed in him.
