“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 …

No wonder we’re Mocked and Ridiculed for our Beliefs
Why are Bible Christians mocked and ridiculed for their beliefs but people of other beliefs are not mocked or ridiculed for theirs? Answer: The Bible is the only Book to accurately reveal and proclaim the nature and character of Jesus Christ. We stand on that alone, thereby rejecting all extra-biblical writings and religious traditions. Why …

Invoking the Name of Jesus Christ in Prayer
Approximately 500 Christians gathered in front of the New Zealand Parliament recently, to pray for the Speaker to bring back references to Jesus Christ in the Parliamentary prayer. Late last year the Country changed Government and the new Speaker removed mention of Jesus Christ from the prayer. It appears he did so not for malicious …

Reject These 3 Lies of Satan!
Asked why he was no longer serving the Lord Jesus with his ministry gift, the first reason the Christian man gave, was the lack of appreciation given to him by the people he had been ministering to. I suspect in one way or another that’s the reason why multitudes of Christian men and women are no …
The Arresting Officer
Common Christian-speak, in the form of a question asks, “If you were arrested for being a Christian, would there be enough evidence to convict you?” Given the moral state of Western society and its ever-increasing overt hatred of all things Christian these days, getting arrested for identifying one’s self with Jesus Christ may well soon be …
Illegitimate Guilt
I asked the Jehovah’s Witness man at my door, “How do you handle guilt?” Clearly taken aback with the question, he replied, “I don’t have any guilt?” I said, “Yes you do. Everyone has guilt; you’re no exception. What do you do with your guilt?” Religious or not, I like to ask people that question; …
Fear-filled Appeasers
“Each one hopes that if he feeds the crocodile enough, the crocodile will eat him last. All of them hope that the storm will pass before their turn comes to be devoured.” – Winston Churchill. It was fear-filled appeasers of Hitler and Nazism he was referring to, but how accurately this fits fear-filled appeasers of Islam …
They Tossed Away the Foundation
Here in Melbourne, Australia, home invasions, car hijackings, armed robberies plus riots at public events are almost daily occurrences it seems. They are certainly every-weekend occurrences and the powers that be are powerless to stop them. And although the politically correct among the powers seem super reluctant to identify the nationalities of the culprits, very rare but courageous members of …
Think of the Lord as Reality
Nearly thirty years ago I wrote a letter to a very dear friend testifying of my new-found faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. Fourteen years later when we met again, he remained the same dear friend, but no mention was made of the letter. Five years after that we met again. This time he …
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 …
