A Better Way

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. ~2 Corinthians 5:17 In the last century, salvation has been watered down to a simple "pray-this-prayer-and-you're-saved" technique. Gone are the...

If You Can’t Say Something Nice …

If you are on social media, you are no doubt aware of the discussions that are taking place concerning how irresponsible people are with their words. The saying "sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me" is rubbish. Take it from someone who...

Faithful vs. Famous

I was recently talking with a young man whose aspiration at this point in his life is to become famous. His reason stated is so he can reach more people with the Gospel but, while that may be true, I feel like it is as hard for a famous person to enter the Kingdom of...

Love Well

Happy New Year! It's hard to believe we are over a quarter of the way through this century. Those who are old enough remember Y2K and how some thought the world would end. But here we are, closer to the Lord's return and yet still here with work to do until He calls...

A Slippery Slope

And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and your descendants after you. (Genesis 17:7) In the Book of Genesis, God created a covenant with Abraham, that He...

Loving God’s Law

Oh, how I love your law! It is my meditation all the day. ~Psalm 119:97 I wonder how many Christians can honestly say they love God's law, let alone meditate on it. A love for God's law begins with a love for His Word, yet many struggle to read the Bible, as they...

The Way of Escape

No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it. ~1 Corinthians 10:13 A man...

A Time for Hope

For there is hope for a tree, If it is cut down, that it will sprout again, And that its tender shoots will not cease. Though its root may grow old in the earth, And its stump may die in the ground, Yet at the scent of water it will bud And bring forth branches like a...
