The Gospel Of Repentance

  T he answer to this question unfortunately is a resounding yes. Why do I make this assertion? Because many people take what their Pastor says hook, line and sinker instead of being like the Bereans in Acts 17:11 where it says that they received the Word with all readiness of mind and searched the scriptures daily whether these things were so. The Bereans didn't even take Paul's and Silas' word as true until they examined it; and these men received direct revelation from the Spirit of God! We have an obligation to study to show ourselves approved unto God, a workman who is not ashamed - rightly dividing the Word of truth (2 Timothy 2:15).  If you're not diligent in study, you will be duped by these numerous false teachers, wolves in sheep's clothing. Here's what these charlatans do: They love to say that "God told me to tell you..." Putting God's name on your falsehood clearly implies dogmatism does it not? This is where the hypnotism begins in ...

If you're not diligent in study, you will be duped by these numerous false teachers, wolves in sheep's clothing. Here's what these charlatans do: They love to say that "God told me to tell you..." Putting God's name on their falsehood clearly implies dogmatism does it not? This is where the hypnotism begins in these social gospel centers (I can't in good conscience call them churches). To make their "prophecy" appear authentic, they will take a Bible verse(s) out of context. What they are doing is claiming they have received "divine revelation", and they want the Bible to bow its knee to their divination. Once they get the foolish churchian [1]   riled up and ear-tickled, they go in for the kill - the money grab!  Mission accomplished. You've been played.  I would love to say that the victim (i.e. church-goer) has been freed from their hypnotic trance, but most return the following week to receive the same abuse from the same wolf i...

There are several ways I could answer this question. If you ask the average person Is God fair, they would say no. Now what do I mean by average? In this PC culture someone may think that I am belittling someone's intelligence by calling someone average but I am not. I am using the word average as a rule or barometer on how most likely people think about God - the God of the Bible; the One and Only True God by the way. Declaring God is not fair is a statement of ignorance on those who know Him very little or not at all. Being ignorant of something does not mean a person is unintelligent, rather it means they lack knowledge about a matter. But, of all of things to be ignorant about, the absolute worst person to be ignorant about is the nature of God. If one does not understand God's nature, you will NEVER fully understand your own nature; its absolutely impossible. Can we know God's nature? Yes. How? Only through His self revelation, the scriptures. Now at this point there w...

 L ately I wondered if Christians have been too harsh and critical of other Christians regarding their doctrine. Let me explain what I mean. I follow several YouTube Christian Content Creators that are solid Biblical Expositors. They have no problem pointing out doctrinal error in the pulpit of Pastors when they come across it. I agree them with more than I disagree because I share a kindred spirit with them. They are Biblically astute. Those that filter what they see and hear through a Biblical lens are being led by the Holy Spirit and do not habitually fall into error. Those that are emotive more than doctrinal often fall into serious error. Performance based “Pastors” are only interested in arousing the emotions of their congregations; it’s the blind leading the blind. Seeker sensitive “Pastors” love to “Decree and Declare” things to their congregations; God is going to bless you with a new house this year! There’s a healing with your name on it! I prophesy that you’re not going...

  Why should we be so passionate about God’s word? Simple, it is the Truth! The world has no problem championing their lies. We have to counter their lies with the Truth. If we keep silent, we are in sin and the following will be the result. This is what Paul commanded Timothy to do: 2 Timothy 4:2-5 - preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and teaching. For the time will come when they will not endure sound (or healthy) doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears from hearing the truth and be turned aside to fables. But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry. If you’re a Pastor and you’re not up to the task of doing what Paul commands above, do yourself and your congregation a favor and step down from the pulpit. Teaching and preaching God’s wo...

I just heard from a YouTuber that I follow two and a half months ago said CNN reported that 69% of black people are casting their votes for Kamala Harris. Twenty three percent are for Trump, and 8% are undecided. The vice president has picked up the torch of Joe Biden in that she is for womb assassination, or as they call it reproductive freedom, and ongoing support for the LGBQTIA+ community; i.e. the homosexual revolution amongst a myriad of other destructive policies. I do not care if you are a Democrat, Republican, Independent, Libertarian, etc. What policies as a Christian do you promote? What I find most egregious is that Black people continue to spew rhetoric about coming together and being unified. Why are so many willing to kill their babies and call it health care, pro-choice, my body my choice? No. The life growing inside of the mother is not her body. The baby is a separate life with its own heart, lungs, limbs, eyes, mouth, ears etc. Why are so many willing to allow their ...

  This is a thought provoking question for me and I’m sure for many others. How do we have peace in the middle of the ongoing storms of life? Is Peace even possible? And if it is, what does it look like? If you were to ask several people, you would get different answers. Some would say peace is good health, prosperity, solid relationships with family, friends and neighbors. Others may find their peace through meditation, yoga and exercise to relieve stress. And then there are others that find peace through entertainment like sporting events and parties. All these things are from the outside, but can we have inner peace? And if so, how long does it last? Jesus told His disciples before His suffering and death in John 14:27 that My peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives give I to you. So, there are two kinds of peace, worldly peace and heavenly peace. The world’s peace I just described above. God’s peace is nothing like the world’s. We need to examin...
