    We live in a world where what is good and what is evil are determined by what suits us. In this passage James outlines the truth about good and evil.

    The Truth About Evil and Good INTRODUCTION We live in a world where what is good and what is evil are determined by what suits us. We see it all around us. Our generation does evil and we call it good and we avoid good as if it was evil. For example it’s almost impossible to find someone who ...read more

    Don’t Look Back!

    Why should Christians remember Lot’s wife? Just like Sodom and Gomorrah, before Christ’s return, the world will be saturated with evil. Christians are warned to come out of the world and not be a part of it.

    Opening illustration: If a person sees a house on fire and does everything he can to rescue the occupants, he is heralded as a hero. And that’s the way it should be. Why is it, then, that a Christian who accepts what God says in the Bible about hell and tries to warn people is ridiculed as an ...read more

    Excess is our problem.

    A familiar scene for us in scripture came early in Jesus’ ministry when a teacher of the law came to talk with Jesus by night. No one would see. And in that conversation Jesus said this to teacher, this man, you must be born again. There is to be a renewal, a change in each of us. I saw a ...read more

    God may abandon any man in his hour of trouble if he abandons God in his hour of prosperity. (Many people don’t want to hear or preach this message!)

    Through union with Christ’s death and resurrection, believers receive a new identity, freedom from sin, and the power to live transformed lives.

    Friend, take a deep breath. The God who raised Jesus Christ from the dead is nearer than your next heartbeat. He is not reluctant. He is not distant.

    Weeds In My Garden

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 8, 2003

     | 11,539 views

    The arrest of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane shows us what sin is like: it is ordinary, it is out of place, it is pervasive. Jesus is the master gardener who can eradicate our "weeds".

    No gardener wants weeds in his garden. But every gardener has them. Weeds are inevitable. Weeds cannot be avoided. So the question is, what will the gardener do to rid his garden of the weeds? I love to walk around other people’s gardens. In other people’s gardens I don’t feel guilty about ...read more
