In recent days on social media, a Christian man with a prophetic gifting put out a suggestion regarding the Bible, “We don’t have the whole picture.” He made it clear he’s not coming against the Bible; but by way of an archeological finding, he said he believes there are, “more books coming.” He said he’s …

God Has No Grandchildren
The other day my wife and I went for a coffee in a building that was once a church. The coffee shop is situated where the foyer used to be and the rest of the building is now converted into apartments. That night on TV we watched a home renovation program, with one of the …
The “too simple” Gospel Message of Jesus Christ
Question: Why don’t people believe the gospel message of Jesus Christ? One answer only, today: It’s too simple. Did I get that answer from a book? Not at all. I got it (and get it) as a response to my sharing it with people. A common response: “There has got to be more to it …

Holy Spirit Baptism
“If the Holy Spirit were taken out of the world today, 95% of all Christianity would continue undisturbed.” WA Criswell. A sad but true statement, I believe. If the apostle Paul were around today he would be in danger of getting the same response he received from the new disciples of Christ at Ephesus when he asked …
If you’re in Christ you’re an Overcomer
As the beheadings, bombings, shootings and slaughters of all kinds continue upon our brothers and sisters in Christ in the Middle East and elsewhere, many Christians in the West see these things headed our way so they’re now wondering if we’ve entered the period known in the Book of Revelation as the Great Tribulation. Others say we have entered it, …
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 …

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 …
Christians (so-called)
Pope Francis released a video recently, calling for people of all religions to work together for peace. Predictably, interfaith unity is his way of seeing it come to pass, not faith in the Prince of Peace Himself, the Lord Jesus Christ Isaiah 9:6. His video features a Jewish Rabbi, “I believe in God,” a Muslim leader, “I …
Jailed For our Stand in Christ
Jesus said, Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you? John 8:10. If He asked the adulterous woman that question today, her response might be, “No Lord. They’ve gone off to Kentucky, USA, to accuse Kim Davis instead.” Have you heard the accusing sodomites? “How many times have you been married, Kim?” How about …
The Classical God
One of our best known and highly respected TV journalists died of cancer a few days ago. In response to a question about mortality he said, “I believe very strongly in the classical God and Jesus Christ. I went to a Anglican boarding school who came very close to driving any concern or respect for religion out …
