Dead Works
“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven” (Matthew 5:16 NKJV). The airwaves are filled with news of the death of the artist Prince; so much so that the 2016 Presidential campaign seems a distant past at the moment and nothing else going…

Upsetting The Apple Cart
“To the pure all things are pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but even their mind and conscience are defiled. They profess to know God, but in works they deny Him, being abominable, disobedient, and disqualified for every good work” (Titus 1: 15-16). Last year sometime I called in…

Idle Talk
“Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. But shun profane and idle babbling, for they will increase to more ungodliness” (2 Timothy 2:15-16). I don’t have to tell you that the meaning of words seems to have changed quite…

What Is At Stake?
” All day long I have stretched out My hands to a disobedient and contrary people” (Romans 10:21, NKJV) I recently sent an email talking about faith, salvation, and obedience and I acknowledge, these are topics that cannot be truly expounded in its fullness via email; for it is a sensitive subject that has been…

Life Through Death
Who is your king? How will you set aside your own life in a frail attempt to pacify your position? The Jews cried out, “We have not king but Caesar” simply because they were afraid of losing their position. They saw their fame being challenged by someone they considered to be a peasant carpenter from…

They Come In His Name?
“Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel, and not in any way terrified by your adversaries, which…

The Exclusionary Gospel
And He said to them, “You are from beneath; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. Therefore, I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins” (John 8: 23-24…

Catastrophy in South Carolina
Blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in My holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble; for the day of the LORD is coming, for it is at hand; “Now, therefore,” says the LORD, “Turn to Me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning.” So rend…

The Oracles of God
If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen (1 Peter 4:11). You may have heard…

Misguided Confidence & Unholy Alliances
The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day. Sever yourselves from such a man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for of what account is he? (Isaiah 2:11,22). The snow storm that swept through states up the east coast over the weekend…

Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. (Proverbs 16:18 ESV) What comes to your mind when you hear the words “American Exceptionalism”? I admit, to me, the these words, when used by today’s politicians, echo a sense of pride; a destructive kind of pride neatly disguised to represent patriotism. Hey, I

But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,

Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; for you I wait all the day long. (Psalm 25:5 ESV) Life! It so often takes some pretty sharp turns. There are times when we see them coming and sometimes we don’t but most of the time there is

Commit your works to the Lord and your thoughts will be established (Proverbs 16:3). Are you seeking the will of God for you; His direction and purposes for you? Well, you are not alone, which I’m sure is not the most comforting words you have heard today. In fact, it may cause some to wonder

The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love (Psalm 103:8). The world seems to think words like this and others that talk about the mercy and love of God makes Him week; inept even. We are so caught up in the notion of “manliness” and science that the thought

When Joshua was by Jericho, he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, a man was standing before him with his drawn sword in his hand. And Joshua went to him and said to him, “Are you for us, or for our adversaries?”. And he said, “No; but I am the commander of the

Why do you boast in evil, O mighty man? The goodness of God endures continually. Your tongue devises destruction, like a sharp razor, working deceitfully. You love evil more than good, lying rather than speaking righteousness. You love all devouring words, you deceitful tongue. God shall likewise destroy you forever; He shall take you away

The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the LORD has anointed me to bring good news to the poor; He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound; to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor (Isaiah
