Satan's obstacles

For a few years now, I've had in the back of head an idea. An idea I have no doubt originated from God. This idea was to help people understand prophesy. As I have already many times before pointed out: I am not an expert in prophesy. I just want to convey to people what was made clear to me by God. Finally the Lord guided me here, to this group and suddenly I saw my way clear to a platform, a method of obeying His command to me. On Monday morning I started a group called "prophesy" to begin… Continue

IS GOD AGANIST SEX AND A GOOD TIME?

Is God Against Sex, Fun and Pleasure?

1 Corinthians 7:1-7:7

Last week we concluded from Scripture that God isn’t the bogeyman some people make Him out to be. (“Does God Punish Us When We Sin?”)

Instead of being inclined to punish us when we sin He is actually more inclined to show us mercy. He loves us so much that Jesus suffered our punishment. When He does punish is not in vindictiveness. His punishment is just because it stems from His perfect nature… Continue

DEALING WITH OFFENSES

DEALING WITH OFFENSES“

An offended brother is more [resistant]than a strong city, and disputes are like the locked gate of a castle tower.” ( Proverbs 18:19 GWT )

And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void to offense toward God, and toward men.” ( Acts 24:16 KJV )

“That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offense till the day of Christ.” (… Continue

The Maker of all human beings (GOD) is recalling all units manufactured, regardless of make or year, due to a serious defect in the primary and central component of the heart. This is due to a malfunction in the original prototype units code named Adam and Eve, resulting in the reproduction of the same defect in all subsequent units. This defect has been technically termed 'Sub-sequential Internal Non-Morality, ' or more commonly known as S.I.N., as it is primarily expressed.. Some of the… Continue

He lifted me up

He lifted me up from the deep miry clay
He planted my feet on the King's Highway
And this is the reason I sing and I shout
My Jesus has come and lifted me up.

(A chorus we used to sing in the church where I grew up)

Bang, Bang,Your Dead.

Bang, Bang,Your Dead.

Zechariah 14:1-14:12

Bang, Bang,Your Dead.

Preaching the Gospel is an exciting adventure into the past, present and future. Many believe that humanity will continue at its present rate and eventually come together in peace and love. I’m sorry to say that this is just another lie from the father of all lies, Satan. Man is destined to die, no matter what, age, race, color, weather they be rich or poor. Death will not be denighed. As a child, I… Continue

Choose First, Then Think

You've probably been told throughout your life that you should think before you make an important decision. However, consider what is at the root of a thought. How do we know what to think? We must first make a choice. We choose what kind of thought we would like to engage, such as something positive or something negative. Therefore, it might prove equally important, or even more important to practice choosing before we think. So how might we be able to make a choice before we make a thought?… Continue

Butchers For Hire

From My Perspective - - -

The news was terse and shocking: “George Tiller a Kansas doctor was shot and killed on Sunday as he entered his church congregation. Tiller has been one of four U.S. physicians who performed late-term abortions, making him a target of anti-abortion protesters. He testified that he and his family have suffered years of harassment and threats. His clinic was the site of protests in 1991 which were marked by mass demonstration and arrests. The clinic has… Continue

I Thank You Lord For Every Thorn

I thank you, Lord, for every thorn,

Each heavy burden I have born.

The darkest moments of despair,

And every cross I've had to bear.

I'm glad I've suffered grief and pain,

Those seasons of distress and strain,

That stunned my pride and humbled me,

And turned my stubborn heart to Thee.

And thank You Lord, for every tear,

I've shed for those I hold so dear.

For 'tho I trusted you before,

Each crisis made me love you… Continue

Vinegar and Oil Relationships

For many years I lived in New Jersey where we were blessed with a heavy dose of Italy. With so many Italians in our area, it should come as no surprise that we had so many Italian restaurants. And what's their favorite dressing on a dinner salad? Of course, Italian dressing. Actually, I didn't know what Italian dressing was for much of my life. I always heard it called by the ingredients that make it up - vinegar and oil. And frankly, I'm sure glad they put them together. Can you imagine a… Continue

So Much Depends On You

So Much Depends on You

"I got two A's," the small boy said.

His voice was filled with glee!

His father, very bluntly, said,

"Why didn't you get three?"

"Mom, I've got the dishes done,"

The girl called from the door.

Her mother, very calmly, said,

"Did you sweep the floor?"

"I mowed the grass," the tall boy said,

"And put the mower away."

His father asked him, with a shrug,

"Did you clean off the clay?"

The… Continue

Gods Dresser

God's Dresser

author unknown

I hope the following story will minister to you if you are having trouble

forgiving yourself, or feel as if God will never forgive you of your past

mistakes.

A woman is dying of Aids. A minister is summoned. He attempts to comfort her, but to no avail.

"I am lost," she said. "I have ruined my life and every life around me. Now

I'm going painfully to hell. There is no hope for me."

The minister saw a framed picture of a… Continue

Magnolias

MAGNOLIAS

By Edna Ellison

I spent the week before my daughter's June wedding running last-minute trips to the caterer, florist, tuxedo shop, and the church about forty miles away. As happy as I was that Patsy was marrying a good Christian young man, I felt laden with responsibilities as I watched my budget dwindle . . So many details, so many bills, and so little time. My son Jack was away at college, but he said he would be there to walk his younger sister down the aisle,… Continue

When You Worry

When You Worry

You've been on my mind and heart.

I see you struggling and planning,

worrying and sweating, crying and running, at a furious pace.

You're trying to move that mountain by yourself again, huh?

God asks that we cast all our cares on Him because He cares.

Think about what your worrying says to… Continue

YOUR JOURNEY TOWARD CHRIST

NEIL ANDERSON'S DAILY IN CHRIST

from Freedom in Christ Ministries

YOUR JOURNEY TOWARD CHRIST

The thief comes only to steal, and kill, and destroy (John

10:10).

How do evil spirits interfere with our lives? Let me answer with

a simple illustration. Imagine that you are standing at one end

of a long, narrow street lined on both sides with two-story row

houses. At the other end of the street stands Jesus Christ, and

your Christian life… Continue

Text: I Thess. 5:9 “For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

I have been wanting to speak on this topic for many years. In fact, waaay back in the beginning of my ministry I created a sermon on this topic and then was advised against preaching it. “Accentuate the positive” I was told, “when people know the good God has for them now and eternally, they will naturally want to follow Him.” I bought that philosophy… Continue

Ouch!! Pruning Hurts!!

This is a shot of my once busy-blossom (grevillea) tree near our front step. This is the tree where I got many bee and lorikeet photos from.

Sadly, this past summer, our tree hasn't had many blossoms, and the branches and limbs were looking pretty sad...

Time for a pruning!!

Now it has lots of new shoots coming up, and I'm looking forward to more great shots when it flowers again in a couple of months.

As I… Continue

"Why do you show those sickening, bloody pictures?"

Many people ask us,

"Why do you show those sickening, bloody pictures?"

Let us briefly explain our purpose for displaying the photographs:

Ending Censorship

We display these photographs because the media has censored the preborn child from the "abortion debate.” The American press refuses to show the American people what these babies look like who are dying in the womb. We are simply attempting to bypass that media blackout by going to the streets and displaying… Continue
