Five Reasons Why People Will Go Through The Great Tribulation

I’ve been giving attention to some Scriptures  declaring God’s forthcoming wrath, one day soon to be poured out upon all haters of God in what Jesus calls, great tribulation such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. Matthew 24:21. It’s not a pretty picture! Neither should it be when one …

It Lacks a Man like Sir Winston Churchill

Over the Christmas and New Year break I was greatly blessed to read a biography written well over sixty years ago on the life and work of British politician and statesman Sir Winston Churchill. I was also greatly blessed to discover the biographer to be a man of humility, honesty and integrity. Originally he had made it his aim …

The Spirit of Might not Mice

The old pastor told a business leader that he would like to meet with him and four or five of his colleagues. The business leader said he would like to do the same, but his colleagues were reluctant to do so, “they’re scared of you, they don’t want to sit in the same room with you.” The old …

The Existence of Evil and the Reality of Satan

In discussing the existence of evil and the reality of Satan the devil, an associate professor of a New Testament School of Theology is quoted as saying, “For the most part, you don’t hear mainline Protestants talking about Satan, the devil or the demonic; I think we’ve handed that kind of language over to the fundamentalists.” There’s no …

Disobedient Christians Who’ve Lost Their Authority In God

A pastor told his church recently that when Adam disobeyed God he lost his authority in God and everything turned against him. In thinking about this, I’m asking myself how come Adam allowed himself to get to that point. What happened to the man who walked with God and was told by Him to have dominion over …

Master or Teacher – Which One Commands More Respect From You?

Most of my Bible reading this year has been from the Authorized KJV rather than the usual NKJV or NIV. I’m not a die-hard ‘King James only’ Christian, but I am very glad to have one in my possession, having been greatly blessed by studying or meditating on some words not used in the other versions. But in reference to the …

So, What Price Freedom of Speech?

In reference to Hurricane Sandy and the devastation it did to the Northeastern region of the USA, I noted the comments of Christian writer and TV presenter, Hal Lindsey, “Perhaps the most critical and immediate effect of the storm is the loss of electrical power,” and it, “serves as a warning about for which we are unprepared.” As he spoke, …

The “no such thing” Thing

I was sharing with a fellow Christian that I had been receiving private emails and phone calls from people who had left a fellowship because of false doctrine taught within, plus manipulative tactics used by the leadership to control current members as well as bad-mouth those who had left. He gave me what I now consider to be the classic Christian response, “There’s no such …

They’ve Kicked Jesus to the Curb!

I was closing the driveway gate the other day when a man walked along, stopped and introduced himself. Shaking my hand he said, “Hello I’m Jim (not real name). I’m the pastor of the church just down the street.” Knowing the church and the denomination, I mentioned to him that twenty years ago I was a …

Why Don’t “Believers” Become Believers?

I praise God for the Bible teacher who once asked his class, “What is one of the evidences of being baptized in the Holy Spirit?” His message was on a cassette tape so I was unable to see facial expressions. I heard laughter though, when he answered the question, “War!” He went on to teach spiritual warfare …
