All glory to God! Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus Philippians 2:5. How gracious of God Almighty that He should grant His redeemed ones the mind of the Lord. Whenever I’m asked to give the difference between what it is Bible Christians believe verses those of other religious people, my response …

Stop Getting Run Over by People who don’t Know God
“God doesn’t expect us to get run over by people who don’t know Him.” – Lester Sumrall. This post is dedicated to my fellow Christians who are getting run over by people who don’t know God. Certainly, we are called to turn the other cheek Matthew 5:39, when insulted and persecuted for righteousness’ sake, but it is wise too …

God-sent Strong Delusion
A 30’s something 5′ 9″ white male interviewed individually some US University students about how they view identity in America. His questions to each: “If I told you I was a woman ….. a Chinese woman….. a 7 year old…. 6′ 5″ tall, what would your response be?” For someone brought up in an era when mental …
Hypocrites in the Church
“And now, my dear friends, let me counsel you. The grand thing the church needs at this time is God’s Holy Spirit.” – Charles H. Spurgeon. I wonder how many “amen”s he received from his people the morning he made that statement nearly 160 years ago. Not many, I suspect, for he was referring to the need …
Not Just a Jewish Peasant!
Like all Protestant churches built long years ago, no doubt the congregants of this one in my town would have confessed, proclaimed and sung, The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my strength, in whom I will trust….. Psalm 18:2. In sermons and songs they would have had zero doubts as …
Satan Goes to Church
And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake…… Matthew 10:22. In my 30-plus years as a Christian, that Scripture has not been among the favorites of preachers, teachers or evangelists I’ve sat under, unless they relegated it back to the apostles of Christ’s day, the martyrs of Foxe’s book or other persecuted Christians of yesteryear in …
Religious Child Abuse
I see atheist and Jesus Christ-denier Richard Dawkins’ claim that, “Teaching children to accept their families’ religious beliefs is child abuse,” is gathering support among like-minded atheists and Christ-deniers. Apart from knowing he is an atheist and Jesus Christ-denier, I know little else about Mr Dawkins. Many such people have come and gone before him with others waiting in the wings to take …
Keep Trampling!
Said the seventy disciples of Jesus to Jesus upon their return from ministry, Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name Luke 10:17. When was the last time you heard your church leaders tell you demons are subject to you in Jesus name? Better still, when was the last time you actively confirmed that …
Siding with Immorality
Quote: “The meaning of the Scripture is the Scripture and if you don’t get the meaning right you don’t have the revelation.” – John MacArthur. If every Christian approached the Scriptures of the Bible with the truth of that statement in mind there would be far less confusion for all both in the church and …
Limit Yourself to the Bible
The Protestant Bible theologian asked the Roman Catholic priest, “Do you feel that a person can go to heaven apart from a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ?” The priest replied, “Definitely.” Handing him a Roman Catholic translation of the Bible, the theologian then asked the priest to cite a book or a chapter or …
