    Modesty in women’s dress is no accident. It is the result of training and adherence to biblical standards of decency in order to strengthen the witness of women.

    “Women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire, but with what is proper for women who profess godliness—with good works.”[1] A 54-year-old British woman tried to pet a lion in the El Arca wild animal ...read more

    Muscular Christianity

    The Faith which Paul taught is the Faith that is needed for Christianity to thrive in our day. That Faith is nothing less than muscular Christianity.

    Christianity has been feminised in our day. I don’t mean that men are unwelcome among the churches or that there is overt feminist anger toward men. What I do mean is that acting manly—accepting responsibility to provide guidance and to build up the penitent, maintaining vigilance while standing ...read more

    Spirit-Filled Living Text: Eph.5: 18-19; Gal.5: 16-17 Intro: Too often we Baptist tend to shy away from the term “Spirit-filled.” This is perhaps largely due to some of the wild and weird things perpetrated and practiced under the guise of being filled with the Holy Spirit, such as “taking up ...read more
