Love is Simple to Understand But Really Hard to Do.

Why Don’t Christians Immediately Go To Heaven?
Psalm 67.2 proclaims, may Your ways be known throughout the earth, Your saving power among
people everywhere.
Whenever we attend a funeral someone invariably says, ‘they are in a better place.’ It is said to comfort the grieving but if we thought about it very long we would ask ourselves, ‘if the next life is better, why does God leave us in this one?’ (more…)

Reading the Bible is Essential for Passing Life’s Final Exam
Ezekiel 3.10 commands, son of man, let all my words sink deep into your own heart first. Listen to
them carefully for yourself.
I am always amazed by the disregard people have for the Bible. In our arrogance we believe that what we think about God defines God.
That logic has never made sense to me because its untrue in every other realm of life. What I think about a person doesn’t define that person. My experience defines that person but even then, without more experience, I could still be wrong about the nature and character of a person despite what I think. (more…)

The Fools Will Win the Culture War
1 Corinthians 3.18 commands we stop deceiving yourselves. If you think you are wise by this world’s
standards, you need to become a fool to be truly wise.
The cultural war around us is a war of ideas. The battle lines have been drawn between God and science and between the Bible and public opinion.
The war analogy is meaningful because there is much hostility brewing among those who oppose God and the Bible toward those who believe in God and the Bible. (more…)

Measuring our Work
Romans 12.11 commands us to never be lazy, but work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically.
Most men over 40 are pretty committed to working hard. We were raised that way. We remember buying our own school clothes, buying our first car and paying for college. Our parents didn’t have a lot and even if they did they required us to work for what we wanted as well.
Overall I would say we are the better for it. (more…)

What God Wants From Us
Acts 26.20 simplifies the gospel to the Gentiles: that they should repent and turn to God, performing
deeds consistent with repentance. So what does God want from us?
The Apostle Paul says three things are expected: repent, turn to God and perform good deeds. This is a much better message than we have heard from the televangelist or the people who knock on our doors with religious information.
The message from the Church to the Gentile over the past 50 or so years has been that God wants people to believe in Him and by believing in Him they will be saved. (more…)

Are YOU Willing to Commit Treason?
Acts 17.7 records, they are all guilty of treason against Caesar, for they profess allegiance to another
king, named Jesus.
Would you commit treason against your culture to identify personally with Jesus Christ? Have you committed treason against Jesus by denying Him before others? What about with your actions and lack of words? (more…)

Our Focus Must Change
Mark 4.19 observes, all too quickly the message is crowded out by the worries of this life, the lure of
wealth, and the desire for other things, so no fruit is produced.
The problem in America isn’t God but His people not obeying God. The will of God is for the people of God to love Him first and most resulting in their working for Him to establish His Kingdom on earth as it is in heaven. (more…)

What Cost For Change Will We Pay?
Acts 5.41 observes, the apostles left the high council rejoicing that God had counted them worthy to
suffer disgrace for the name of Jesus.
When the Church started it was considered a badge of honor to suffer for being a Christian. Today, we cower at being maligned for Jesus’ sake.
This fear of man has become greater than our fear of God with the result that most have not heard from Christians that all people must repent and be born again if they are to enter into eternal life. (more…)

The Church Needs to Reclaim it’s Voice
Jeremiah 9.3 observes, they refuse to stand up for the truth. They only go from bad to worse. They do
not know me, says the LORD.
What is truth? Since at least 1960 the rhetoric has been that there is no truth. This belief has allowed social changes to occur by sweeping away thinking that previously held to certain belief’s about what is right and what is wrong. The result of this myth has been increasing societal chaos.
If we applied this belief to engineering or medicine we would have bridges collapsing, planes crashing, and surgery’s going horribly awry. Math and science depend upon truth so that they can reach conclusions upon which they can base further premises. (more…)
