Same Old Same Old

In the modern world, there is a tendency to get bored with things very quickly, especially anything stale or old. It is more tempting than ever before to give up on anything traditional or "tried and true" because we have access to so many new things all the time.

In the business world, there is a constant trend toward innovation and change. There is a whole field of work to manage that concept - called "Change Management", which helps ease a company through all of the impact of any… Continue

He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver

Malachi 3:3 says: ‘He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver ‘

This verse puzzled some women in a Bible study and they wondered what this statement meant about the character and nature of God.

One of the women offered to find out the process of refining silver and get back to the group at their Bible study.

That week, the womon called a silversmith and made an appointment to watch him at work. She didn’t mention anything about the reason for her interest beyond… Continue

Need people to pray

Please pray for my friend Darla. She has been sick with acute bronchitis and the medicines don't seem to be helping her. She's been to the doctor several times and even the emergency room. They did swine flu tests and they came back negative. She has been running a fever of 102.

Later, Dude

Acts 24.22-27 - Then Felix, who was well acquainted with the Way, adjourned the proceedings. ☗ "When Lysias the commander comes," he said, "I will decide your case."☗ He ordered the centurion to keep Paul under guard but to give him some freedom and permit his friends to take care of his needs. Several days later Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was a Jewess. He sent for Paul and listened to him as he spoke about faith in Christ Jesus. As Paul discoursed on righteousness, self-control and… Continue

A TEMPLE OF GOD FILLED WITH IDOLS?????

"Every Christian is a living temple of the living God. God dwelt in the Jewish temple, took possession of it, and resided in it, by that glorious cloud that was the token of His presence with that people. So Christ by His Spirit dwells in all true believers. The temple was devoted and consecrated to God, and set apart from every common to a holy use, to the immediate service of God. So all Christians are separated from common uses, and set apart for God and his service." - Matthew… Continue

My King

MY KING!

author unknown

The Bible says my King is a seven way King. He's the King of the Jews, that’s a racial King. He's the King of Israel, that’s a national King. He's the King of Righteousness. He's the King of the ages. He's the King of the Heavens. He's the King of Glory. He's the King of Kings, and He's the Lord of lords. That’s My King! I wonder do you know Him?

David said the Heavens declare the Glory of God and the firmament shows of His handiwork. My King is a… Continue

The Greatest Commandments

A real Christian Loves God and Loves people in Jesus name. I do not debate what sin is, the book of Revelation, or

what the devil is up to. There are things I know and things I believe. Jesus said Love God with all your heart, mind, soul,

and strength, and love others as yourself. There are other commandments in the Bible and those all fulfill Love.

I can watch the Simpsons as long as I love God and love people.

I heard a man at my church the other day say, "How can… Continue

" The Word of God is like a Lion" -- Charles Spurgeon

The Word of God is like a lion. You don’t have to defend a lion. All you have to do is let the lion loose, and the lion will defend itself.” – Charles Spurgeon

Study The Scripture Like The Bereans

Anyone can make a claim about God or the Bible, but that does not mean they spoke the truth! As Christians, we need to learn how to study the Bible from the Bereans and become students of the Bible, searching and investigating the various claims that are spoken of… Continue

THE LION THAT SAID " BAA" By- Jack Klumpenhower

The Lion That Said “Baa”

by Jack Klumpenhower

7/3/2006

I admire certain world leaders and sports heroes, and I’ve had some bosses I respected and worked hard for. But few of these people are approachable. Greatness and authority breed distance. I’m more comfortable with ordinary people.

Jesus, of course, is anything but ordinary, as the symbolic images in the book of Revelation show.

The Lion

In chapter 5, all of heaven is looking for… Continue

Abiding in the Vine.....

.Abiding in the Vine

By Lahry Sibley

Jesus said in…..

John 15:5 I am the vine, ye [are] the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

What a statement to make and what does it tell us? First of all, Jesus says that “I am the vine”, “I” being Himself. There are not many vines, not many ways, not many plans for salvation, only one. Jesus the Christ (Messiah, Anointed One). Anything… Continue

Keep away from the SLOW FADE!!!

Every now and then a song comes around that is a clear indication that the Holy Spirit is guiding the work of those that have surrendered their lives as an offering to our Lord Jesus Christ. As I listen to this song and as I review the lyrics, I see powerful written statements. The lyrics remind me of the wisdom that King Solomon shared with us in the inspired scripture of Proverbs. One point that is emphasized in the Casting Crowns song is that the path to destruction is a slow "step-by-step"… Continue

Conscience. . . 'got one?

Today's passage - Acts 24.1-21 - Five days later the high priest Ananias went down to Caesarea with some of the elders and a lawyer named Tertullus, and they brought their charges against Paul before the governor. When Paul was called in, Tertullus presented his case before Felix: "We have enjoyed a long period of peace under you, and your foresight has brought about reforms in this nation. Everywhere and in every way, most excellent Felix, we acknowledge this with profound gratitude. But in… Continue

Jesus Under Our Noses

JESUS UNDER OUR NOSES

Has anyone ever considered that Jesus may be around us all the time? When Jesus came 2000 years ago, most did not recognize Him. Have you considered that what you are looking for is all around you every day? Do you see Him? Have you seen Him?

I'm not talking about some smoked filled room with flashing lights and thunder rolling, beloved. I'm talking about Jesus. He is often right under our noses, and we esteem Him not.

"What do you mean, Lahry"?… Continue

Count Your Blessings

Count Your Blessings

If you own just one Bible, you are abundantly blessed. One-third of all the world does not have access to even one.

If you woke up this morning with more health than illness, you are more blessed than the million who will not survive this week.

If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation, you are ahead of 500 million people in the… Continue

God's love!

This blog is written for only Christians who are saved through the name and the blood of Jesus.

Have you ever gotten something you did not deserve :) and then wondered, what happened here ? This happened to me.

Going back to when I was 20 years old and I was looking for a job. Here I was sitting in the office of the boss of this company where I applied, I was being interviewed and was asked so many different questions including my political idiology. One of the questions… Continue

AN UNHALLOWED COMPROMISE

What is "an unhallowed compromise"? Barnes' Notes defines it as "an attempt to blend things together which could not be united. One must really displace the other."

The question is - are you trying to blend something into your life which God is telling you to renounce? You know that you cannot hold onto this belief much longer, but you are afraid of persecution or what it will cost you in the end. It's time to let go! It's time to embrace the "cross of Christ" and allow God to take… Continue
