GOD KEEPS HIS PROMISES

"The New Testament records that the Lord Jesus said, 'Heaven and earth shall pass away; but My words shall not pass away' (Luke 21:33). The promises of God will be kept..." - Plain Talk On Isaiah

There is a powerful promise found in Isaiah 54:10 which says - "For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but My kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of My peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee."

This is what God is… Continue

The Evidence of being Born Again.....

The Evidence of being Born Again…….

By Lahry Sibley

A common phrase among those churches that refer to themselves as “Pentecostal” is the saying “baptized in the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in other tongues”. Whether you are Pentecostal or not, if you are active in a church or watch so called “Christian TV”, you have probably heard this term.

The validity of this statement or phrase is scripturally argumentative in and of itself. But that is not… Continue

RAMBLING: THE CITY

RAMBLING: THE CITY

I live in a city and I don't like it! In fact I don't like any city and I have lived in several both here in Canada and in the USA. What is it about cities I don't like? I find most cities are dirty (except of course those areas designated as tourist attractions), noisy, polluted, crime, corruption, prostitutes, johns, drugs, drunks, smelly, rudeness, traffic, construction, streets in need of repair,....well you get the picture. I would prefer to live in the… Continue

Spirits. . . Holy vs. Evil

Acts 19.8-20 8Paul entered the synagogue and spoke boldly there for three months, arguing persuasively about the kingdom of God. But some of them became obstinate; they refused to believe and publicly maligned the Way. So Paul left them. He took the disciples with him and had discussions daily in the lecture hall of Tyrannus. This went on for two years, so that all the Jews and Greeks who lived in the province of Asia heard the word of the Lord. God did extraordinary miracles through Paul, so… Continue

False Professors

Dear Friends,

One of the most difficult things for “believers” to do, is to take an honest look within. It’s easy to “examine” others, but what about us? After all, on judgment day, our own personal account will be under very close scrutiny, without deception, nothing hidden. Everything will be laid open and bare. So I would think it better to take a look now, than later.

I’m going to ask you to do something that will take a lot of courage on your part. I’m going to ask you to read… Continue

The Center....

The CENTER...

The center chapter of the BIBLE is Psalm 118.. there are 594 chapters before and after Psalm 118

And if we will add this we will get 1188... in which the center verse of the BIBLE is PSALM 118:8

What is the significant of Psalm 118:8 in God's perfect will for our lives?

It is better to trust in the LORD, than to put confidence in man.-- Psalm 118:8

I Can Do No Other

Matthew 7: 22, “Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast our devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.”

The typical church in America today has abandoned the Bible as the only measure of truth. We have prostituted ourselves by welcoming the world and its ways into our daily lives and into our churches. Where holiness… Continue

One Of The Hated

I Chronicles 16: 9, “Give unto the Lord the glory due His name: bring an offering and come before Him: worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.”

Life isn’t about us, it’s about God. Although God created this world for us to inhabit and enjoy, it isn’t about us. The heavens declare His glory, not ours. This world shows forth His handiwork. The ultimate point of our life on earth isn’t to have fun but to know God. There is no other reason to exist. The sad thing is that most people… Continue

IS THERE A DOCTOR IN THE HOUSE?

Has there ever been a time when evil was so rampant? It seems that many are crying out - "Can it get any worse than this?"

People are sin-sick. Their hearts are hardened and more wicked than ever. Never in the history of mankind have there been such bizarre acts of crime and violence

The sad commentary is that there is as much wickedness in the Church as in the world. The Preachers are playing "Brain Surgeon" when what is so desperately needed is for a "Heart Specialist"… Continue

Our God will meet all our needs

Our God will meet all our needs

“God clothes the grass in the field, which is alive today but tomorrow is thrown into the fire. So you can be even more sure that God will clothe you.

Don't have so little faith! Don't worry ( to be anxious, distracted ) and say, 'What will we eat?' or 'What will we drink?' or 'What will we wear?'

The people who don't know God keep trying to get these things, and your Father in… Continue

The Personhood of the Unborn

The pro-abortion side of the abortion debate has won in the past, not because their arguments were logical or well-founded, but because of emotional appeals. They kept telling us that abortion promotes equal rights, that those who oppose abortions are intolerant, and that abortions heal women who have been raped. Meanwhile, they were allowed to get away with arguments like, "the fetus is just a blob of tissue," "the fetus is not a human being," "the fetus is just part of the woman's body," and… Continue

How Christianity Fulfills The Law of Moses

CURRENTLY, THIS DOCUMENT IS FOR DISCUSSION ONLY AND DOES NOT REPRESENT ANY CURRENT DOCTRINAL OPINIONS OF ITS AUTHOR.

One of the most problematic Scriptures for me is found in Matthew 5:17-20 (all verses from the English Standard Version):

“Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will…

THE HOPE OF THE SONS OF GOD & NOT OF THE HYPOCRITES

"It is the hope of hypocrites and not of the sons of God, that makes an allowance for the gratification of impure desires and lusts." - Matthew Henry

"...the hope of being like Christ, and being permitted to dwell with Him, will lead a man to earnest efforts to become holy, and will be actually followed by such a result." - Barnes' Notes

Every Christian should be striving to be holy. In fact, every Born Again believer can be holy and is expected to be… Continue
