    I am sharing this message as I prepare to speak in the Philippines to celebrate the anniversary of Don Stewart. During my preparations, I had several open visions where the Lord asked me to write about His humanity. He said tell them I am a high priest who can be touched; I was once human like them.

    Progress became a secular god, a new form of hope for secular man in the 19th century, a progress that would lead to freedom. It was not to be.

    Monday of 2nd Week in Lent The call of Jesus in Matthew, which we heard at Mass on Saturday, was to “be perfect, as the heavenly Father.” In Luke’s redaction we heard today, the call is to “be merciful, as the heavenly Father.” If we understand that the root meaning of perfection is ...read more

    Independence Day: In God we find the basis for national freedom, or physical freedom; however, we also find in the Lord the basis for our spiritual freedom. God’s provision for our spiritual freedom is found in His one and only Son, Jesus Christ.

    According to Mark Parsec, Independence Day “celebrates America’s Declaration of Independence from the tyranny of England under King George the III.”(1) The signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, he says, was not intended to declare war with England, nor did it procure our country’s ...read more

    You are the body of Christ. You are created and designed to carry out God’s plan. This is the responsibility that God has given to the church: to pray, to fast, to give, to nurture, and raise up the next generation of the body of Christ.

    Christ and the Church Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it. (Ephesians 5:25) Genesis lays out God's blueprint. It lays out His pattern for His design of both male and female. We meditated on this topic last week. In the modern era today, ...read more

    A commercialized, materialistic Christmas often leaves out the greatest Christmas gift of all. How did John the Baptist prepare for our Savior? Let’s look at John’s preparation for Jesus in Matthew 3:1-12.

    Just as in Adam all die, so in Christ all are made alive.

    CHRIST THE FIRSTFRUITS. 1 Corinthians 15:19-26. Without the resurrection of Jesus Christ, there is no gospel at all (1 Corinthians 15:12-13), and we are of all men most vain and miserable (1 Corinthians 15:14-19).

    When a believer dies, others are not to grieve like those who have no hope in Christ. But for believers we are grieving for ourselves and our loss, not for the person that died. This assurance believers have is because of the hope we have in Christ.

    Do we know the exact time of the return of the Lord? Yes, we do! But didn’t Jesus say, “that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven” (Mathew 24:36). Yes, He did say that. Then how do we know the day and hour of the return of Christ? It is when the trumpet sounds. It is just ...read more

    Notice, this verse starts off with the word, “Beware.” Any time we see the word “Beware” we need to pay attention!

    Illus: If you are an insurance salesman and you drive up to a home that has a large sign on the gate of the fence that says, “Beware of bad dog”, you can not blame the owner if this vicious dog tries to eat your leg off before you get to the car. Life is filled with many things to BEWARE ...read more

    A college boy was explaining the reason he flunked out in college was because he had a clinker in his thinker.

    Did you know that about ninety-nine-and-nine-tenths of the problems that confront people is because they have that same problem--they have a clinker in their thinkers? We laugh this off as not being important, but God sees the way people think as being very important. Illus: We see this in the ...read more

    We have looked at our REDEMPTION, and praise the Lord for this. In this message we will look at our REVELATION. (And, in the following message we will look at our REWARDS.)

    In verse 3 we are told that God wants to bless us. Then Paul gives us a grocery list of things in the next few verses that God has blessed us with. Illus: One of the biggest days of the church year should be Thanksgiving Day. Why? It is obvious. Because we all have so much to be thankful ...read more
