    We are to love and live the truth.

    There is something about brevity that makes a message all that more emphatic. I was pacing up and down a hallway outside a delivery room on April 16, 1976. I was trying to be calm and collected, but I acted more like a caged lion. Suddenly a big door swung open and a gowned nurse was holding ...read more

    Some people will change when they see the light. Others change only when they feel the heat. Change is an odd thing - everyone wants to change, but few actually do.

    “Ch.Ch.Ch.Ch.Changes” 3 John After watching sales falling off for three straight months at Kentucky Fried Chicken, the Colonel called the Pope and asked a favor. ''I need you to change the daily prayer from, 'Give us this day our daily bread' to 'Give us this day our daily ...read more

    Diotrephes was a trouble maker trying to run the church. Paul tells Gaius he will deal with him when he comes. Peace is possible in spite of those who love to be first.

     | 3,011 views

    If Jesus is not in control of your church it is not a church. It is a religious club often managed by a Diotrephes.

    3 John 1:9 I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not. 10 Wherefore, if I come, I will remember his deeds which he doeth, prating against us with malicious words: and not content therewith, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, ...read more

    Be careful of the “Just Us Club!” Be careful of any ministry that is designed for “Just Us.” We must welcome the Christian stranger, not welcome weird doctrine but believers with genuine hospitality!

    God has poured immeasurable grace on his church. This grace should not be abused by church leaders. Pride in the house of God has led many to pervert the grace of God. God is not pleased.

    February 26, 2022 Today we are combining 2nd and 3rd JOHN and JUDE.

    Again, I want to bring to your attention the fact that second and third John are very small books,

    but to say they were insignificant would be like saying a person who is short is not significant. We know that size does not have anything to do with significance. However, there is a contrast between second and third John. For example, Remember, we mentioned in the previous message that some ...read more

    Can you picture a contrast of testimonies in your mind? A situation where there was a believer with a good testimony and one with a bad testimony. John contrasts two church leaders and mentions their testimonies that are complete opposites.
