    The scientific world has been bamboozled into believing that evolution has been proved.

    Herbert Schlossberg, in his book Idols for Destruction, astutely observed: “Western society, in turning away from the Christian faith, has turned to other things.

    Will is the whole man active. I cannot give up my will; I must exercise it. I must will to obey. When God gives a command or a vision of truth, it is never a question of what He will do, but what we will do. To be successful in God’s work is to fall in line with His will and to do it His way. All ...read more

    As noted by Fred Smith, "Michael N. Hart, the historian, says that Christianity enjoys its greatest uniqueness in this, for no other great religion tells its adherents to love their enemies.

    Many times when my wife and I are asked how can we keep going, country after country for almost 45 years. I tell them it is the joy of the Lord that gives strength.

    Irenaeus [130-200 AD]: And instead of the tithes which the law commanded, the Lord said to divide everthing we have with the poor.

    Like a horse has to be saddle broke to submit to the rider, you have to be broken before God, admitting that you are powerless to bring down your Jericho. Being good doesn’t make it happen, it’s God’s battle, but being submitted will. The fact is, we need an army to do it and God has one. A ...read more

    As Joel Preston says: -Sheep are stubborn. Sheep can get easily lost because they tend to go their own way. Like sheep, believers have a tendency to go their own direction rather than follow the divine Shepherd's plan. So Ps 119:176 says, "I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for ...read more

    KNOWING THE FATHER'S LOVE Consider an illustration of two children and two fathers. One child feels like he’s just a tenant in the house, a servant doing what he’s commanded to do. He doesn’t know his father very well or his father’s love. He just knows what he’s been commanded to do. The other ...read more
