It's amazing how vicious and cold we can be as a people. Thank the Lord that he has remedied all that! Unfortunately, Satan is still coming after us, and he uses other people (even Christians) to do his dirty work. This is the case for me. I'm surrounded by my enemies. They've closed off all...

It's so funny. Every time I log on to post a prayer request for myself, I end up reading other peoples' requests for prayer. Then, my problems don't seem all that bad. Today, I had this great story in my head to tell everyone. It was how a former friend hates me so bad that they've become my...

Are We Sending Newborns To Be Slaughtered by Doing This? Picture this: A shepherd is in the field and witnesses a newborn sheep being born. He starts dancing around the shivering little animal, singing and praising God. He throws out a few crumbs he has on hand for just such an occasion...

Jerry Jenkins, the co-author of the Left Behind series, states that as Christians, we are "called to excellence." While I am a student of Jerry's, I disagree with his assertion, especially in the context he says it. He often laments to new authors how difficult it is to get published...

Please join me today in thanking God for all the blessings He bestows upon us daily. Thank you, Lord!

God spoke to me through this passage today: Although he was a son, he learned obedience through the things he suffered. And by being perfected in this way, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him, and he was designated by God as high priest in the order of Melchizedek...

The One Word That Can Shred Your Family to Pieces The other day, I was led in prayer by a ministry leader with several other people in attendance. The focus was on our commitment to the Lord, a worthy subject, no doubt. However, there was one part of the prayer that I was not in agreement...

Is repentance a condition for salvation? If so, what does repentance look like in relation to being saved? Comments backed by scripture are always appreciated. Thanks.

Today I learned that according to Romans 8:1, there is no condemnation for me as a follower of Christ. I knew that already, but it was nice to be reminded of that fact. However, the commentator brought up another scripture that has always frightened me: For we must all appear before the...

What, you ask? Berating men. Enough, already. We understand that the guy watching football on his couch instead of attending your Sunday services is hurting your bottom line. But please, just stop. You are not going to get him there by telling him it's okay if his wife leaves him and that...

Hello, everyone. I have a good friend whose wife divorced him a few years ago and took their children. She has since remarried and they all live in the same town. It really is quite awkward for everyone involved, especially since he knows the new hubby. Anyway, this guy is already insisting...

Is There Not One Godly Man Left? I heard the familiar, soothing voice of Pastor Alistair Begg come over my car's speakers last night. The sermon was titled "Asking God for Wisdom," and it was part of a series called "Faith That Works." The key takeaways were: Wisdom comes from God, not...

Hello all, I am a bit confused about the site rules, so I thought I would ask you, site veterans. I have a few questions: 1. The last post I submitted was approved, but all my outbound links were removed. Does that mean they are not allowed or was it because they were linking to websites that...

Are You a Spiritual Infant? Dr. Tony Evans, pastor of Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship in Dallas, broadcast a sermon last Wednesday on CSN Radio. It was titled Time to Grow Up. In it, he posed the question, "Are you a spiritual infant?" And while this is a valid question for all of us who gave...

Fox News' Ainsley Earhardt proclaims her faith in Christ on national television this morning. Take a look at the last minute of this video: Any other network and she would have been fired. As it is, her ability to work in any other news organization is now severely diminished. I don't know...

Anytime we as Christians allow others to be silenced just because we don't fully agree with them, we become no better than the Marxists we claim to oppose. Agree, or disagree?

When was the last time your pastor sent you an email that looked like this: From Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the command of God our Savior and of Christ Jesus our hope, to Timothy, my genuine child in the faith. Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord...
