Yes there is suffering.

There is a reality coming that supersedes by all conception and imagination, this temporal life of exceeding sorrows and fleeting pleasures. Yes, there is suffering involved in resisting the momentary pleasure or the temptations of the flesh. To deny the flesh or the present pleasure is to guarantee more fully the eternal pleasure, which can start today by the way.

Paul said, “The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs-heirs of… Continue

Take Heed

Now these things happened as examples for us, that we should not crave evil things, as they also craved. And do not be idolaters as some of them were; as it is written, "THE PEOPLE SAT DOWN TO EAT AND DRINK, AND STOOD UP TO PLAY." Nor let us act immorally, as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in one day. Nor let us try the Lord, as some of them did, and were destroyed by the serpents. Nor grumble, as some of them did, and were destroyed by the destroyer.

Now these things… Continue

FORGIVEN BY GOD, BUT NOT BY MYSELF

I do not know anyone who has not resurrected a previous sin and found

themselves caught in a downward spiral of depression or a feeling of

being trapped by being unable to forget what past wrong they have

committed. We state we believe God has forgiven our sins, but somehow we

carry a self condemning inability to forget and forgive ourselves for

what we have confessed.

The Bible repeatedly confirms God's role in forgiving and forgetting our

sins.… Continue

Know Him for Life

If God suddenly appeared at your front door and revealed that He wishes to meet with your wife or husband for some unarticulated reason, how would you respond? Allow me. The following represents two most common reactions in an unexpected visitor scenario. You would probably do one of these two:

1. Stunned and unfamiliar, softly close the door and stumble through the house to fetch the requested member. Or,

2. Excitedly and…

True Repentance Will Lead to Salvation PART 1

1. True Repentance Will Lead to Salvation “For godly sorrow produces repentance to salvation …

(2 Corinthians 7:10) Notice two things. The word “repentance” is linked to the word “salvation” – “repentance to salvation.” In other words, you cannot get truly saved unless you are willing to repent. To repent means that you are willing to turn from the sins you have been living in. It means to have a change of heart and a change of mind. However, you…

What is Bible Obedience?

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." Genesis 1: 1. Not only did God create the heaven and the earth, God also, "created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him, male and female created he them". Genesis 1: 27.

Every person of the whole human race is loved mightily and tenderly by God our Creator. Whatever God has ever done for the human race, he has done out of genuine love, and with an intense desire to see man happy. In the Book, the Bible, our…

I HAVE GOD'S LOVE

I - I have God's love.

It came from up above.

And it's free - as free

As the flight of a dove.

So, from you, Satan,

I will have no fear

Because Jesus is here.

He's standing right here.

You're no equal,

For Jesus is so precious

and, oh, so very dear.

I will never give my life to you

No matter what you say or do.

I'm going with the proud,

While you have your…

Break - Sunday, August 1, 2010

Good Day~

Last week, as I was writing about Paul's words that "Christ's love compels us"--I began realizing some things about myself, and my own relationship with the Lord. I picked a book

off my shelf, The Return of the Prodigal Son by Henri Nouwen, and began reading it as collaborative material to expound on God's great love for us.

I came to the realization that has somewhat…

Happy Sunday!

So, today in church the pastor made a wonderful point.

Have you ever read something in the Bible that just immediately lifts you up and makes you go, "Yeah... hey, yeah! That's right!" A quick spirit pick me up.

Ever realized that the devil will immediately interfere and take that good feeling away? How often had you read your Bible to the devil in a rebuttal against his attacks?

We often relax when we read something in the Bible that lifts our spirit up. We… Continue
