No One Can Serve Two Masters

Know this, YOU can’t walk with God and hold hands with Satan at the same time. Matthew 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Mammon refers…

God Is Concerned About You

God is concerned about each of us, for it was He who has brought each “born again” believer out of the kingdom of darkness and into His kingdom of Light. We were in bondage. Yes, we were once slaves to sin. But God allowed His Son, Jesus, to come; And now, all we need do…

Man In Turmoil

God created man and placed him in a beautiful garden to enjoy perfect peace, joy, and happiness. But when Adam and Eve disobeyed, they were at once stricken with guilt. Where before they had longed for the presence of God, they now hid themselves with shame. Guilt and fear replaced the peace and happiness they…

Check Those Attachments

Last Fall, I had an opportunity to mentor a young man, whom we will call Jordan for confidentiality purposes. After completing four years of college, Jordan had recently reconnected with a young woman, from his high school years, and they’d been dating for five months. Jordan’s parents were very concerned about how fast the relationship…

Racism

God makes it clear that no man or woman is superior to another. Racism – prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one’s own race is superior. The civil rights movement happened over 50 years ago, yet we still have a lack of understanding about how…

Our Bad Habit Of Bad Habits

Malachi 3:7 Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the Lord of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return? The history of Israel is not a record of increasing obedience. It is…

How We Handle the Journey Will Determine the Destination

Brothers and sisters, death cannot be avoided by exercise, diet, meditation, pills, surgery, or the next genetic discovery, or anything else. Today many are uncertain (some don’t care) about their eternal destination. Some speculate that because that they have not committed a major crime, (murder, robbery, etc),they are good enough for Heaven. Sadly, I tell…

Are You Free From Indwelling Sin?

Romans 8:5-11 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. (6) For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. (7) Because the carnal mind is…

It’s A Lifestyle

Attending church every Sunday does not make you a Christian. How you live your life outside the walls and off the pews tells the whole story. It’s a lifestyle. Brothers and sisters, as Christians ,we are witnesses for the Lord, so it’s vital that we lead a lifestyle that is good in the eyes of…

God Will Not Tolerate Sin Among His People

Can a Christian get away with sin? Some people seem to think so. However, a closer look points to another answer. God is always opposed to sin. He is never deceived and cannot be outwitted. He may allow sin to continue for a time, but there will come a time and will be a day…
