Galatians 1.10 asks, am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of 
God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.
Why is it that man pleasers and God pleasers are not synonymous? How is it that pleasing men keeps us from serving Christ? Relational evangelism has led many Christians to believe they are at least closely related. In trying to win people to Christ we try to become friends with men. Indeed, Jesus was a friend of sinners! So it seems Paul’s words conflicts with Jesus’ work. (more…)
1 Corinthians 9.25,27 observes, everyone who competes in the games goes into 
strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever….No, I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.
Too many Christian men fail to see themselves running a race. They do not see themselves in a cosmic battle for the souls of men of whom they are the Lord’s army to be fighting for the freedom, capture and security from sin and death those currently under the dominion of ignorance to Jesus as Savior.

Psalms 34.14 command, turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.
What should we do in these divisive times? How should we treat one another when opinions about what is right and wrong are so different? (more…)
Psalms 91.14-16, explains, because he loves Me, says the Lord, I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges My Name. He will call on Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him and show him My salvation.
The blessing of the Lord, who does not want that in their life? I know I certainly do. How then do we receive God’s favor? (more…)
1 Corinthians 4.10-13 observes, we are fools for Christ, but you are so wise in Christ! We are weak, but you are strong! You are honored, we are dishonored! To…
1 John 3.18, commands, let us not love in word or speech, but in action and in truth.
Too much talk, to little action. Everyone wants world peace and for all people to get along yet we see little evidence of this wish coming true. God wills for it to be so and has provided all we need for making it happen. (more…)
James 2.26 observes, just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith
without works is dead.
There is too much faith without works in our churches today. The people of God expect the hirelings to do the work when the Scripture commands the hirelings to equip the people for works of service to God. Why is this to be the case? (more…)
2 Corinthians 5.6 observes, we are always confident and know that while we are at home in the body
we are away from the Lord.
Paul is speaking about our physical body though he is encouraging us about our future body. Paul reminds us that while we live on earth we are not at home with the Lord. Our true destiny, our true residence, our true happiness, is with Jesus where He is living bodily; with Him forever. (more…)
