Like many young boys of my era growing up, I smoked my first full cigarette at around ten years of age and I loved it. By the time I was fifteen they were very much part of my life and remained so until I was almost forty. Especially did I love them when drinking alcohol. Just a few months before I met the Lord Jesus, however, I began to take a serious look at my alcoholic consumption, plus behavior and made the Continue reading
A young man recently informed me that I was, “doing a good job presenting your religious (radio) program every Sunday.” Upon thanking him, I asked him if he was a Christian. Quickly he responded, “Of course. I am a Catholic!” I then asked him if he personally knew the Lord Jesus for himself and going by the strange look I was now receiving, I decided to re-phrase the question. I asked him, “Have you ever personally received the Lord Jesus into your life as the Savior of your soul?” With a 
The month of November is springtime in our part of the world and although it is a most popular season for young people to celebrate their wedding, one can not always be sure on the day that the weather will deliver what is desired. For most of us that includes no rain, a comfortable temperature, coupled with a fine, sunny sky. I’m not so sure that this was the greatest desire for my youngest daughter on her November day, but 
The moment I first experienced the reality and power of the Lord Jesus Christ in my life I knew that He was nothing at all like the Jesus I had imagined for over thirty years. Until that encounter, the Jesus of my imagination was very religious, joyless, still suffering for my sins, intolerant of freedom, rules based, demanding and commanding. But when He healed my body that night, I knew those 
Back in the days when I was a gospel messenger out on the streets of my local community, rarely would too much time pass before I would get to experience the practical reality, revelations and power of the Lord Jesus Christ as He ministered in some-one’s life. It was always an awesome thing for me to experience - so much so, that I regularly could not wait to share with my fellow church members what it was that the Lord said or did. In that church, we had an early-morning men’s prayer meeting every Wednesday. It was a time when men were 
A friend made a comment on one of my blog posts recently, highlighting that, “Fear not is one of, if not THE most commonly used phrase in God’s word.” Not having thought of it like that, I decided to get my concordance out and check. My friend is right. Using them in their correct context, the words “fear not” “do not fear” “do not be afraid” “you shall not fear” can be found 
Sitting with a friend discussing Christianity over dinner recently, he asked me why I was using the phrases, “biblical Christianity” and the “biblical Lord Jesus Christ” when explaining some of my beliefs to him with regards our subject. He said, “I thought all Christian practice was based on the Bible.” If only it was that simple. Once again I was reminded of the time many years earlier when, as 
Imagine yourself sitting with a friend having coffee or lunch enjoying each other’s company and he then mentions the name of a mutual friend that he caught up with recently. But as he begins to describe the nature and character of that person, you are wondering if he is talking about the same one, because what you are hearing is totally 
In the last institutionalised church system I was associated with, among the various rosters we had was the Communion or Lord’s Supper speaker’s roster. A half-dozen people were on it, the idea being that before we partook of the elements each week, the speaker would bring a five to ten-minute message in order to prepare us for the relevance of why and what it was we 
Back in March 1987 when I first began to do systematic Bibles studies I was simply amazed to be learning of the nature and character of God Almighty, Who was revealing Himself to me in the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ using a book – or sixty-six books, known as the Bible. No greater miracle is there in all the world, so far as I am concerned. Before I met the Lord, I was many things not good, but especially was What’s This?
