    Jesus warned about the problems associated with criticizing others, and of the need to do some spiritual self-examination before passing judgement. He then said that we need to use discernment when dealing with some people.

    This morning, we are going to look at the problem of judging others. The definition for the word “judge” that applies to our passage means, “to form a judgment or opinion” and to “decide upon critically.”(1) The key word here is “critically,” for when we judge others we are often being “critical” ...read more

    As we pass through this world on our way to heaven, witnessing should be a priority for the Christian.

    As Paul speaks about the Christian’s walk in this world, he tells us we need to walk wisely. We do this, he says, by taking advantage of every opportunity to give a verbal witness for Jesus. Why should witnessing be a priority for believers as we are living in this world? Two reasons: Reason #1: ...read more

    He That Winneth Souls Is Wise

    One of the things the devil has been very successful at, is getting the church completely sidetracked from the mission God intended the church to do.

    To see that this is the case, all you have to do is observe what people seem to want from the church. For example, some see the church as: • A drug center to reach an emotional high. They get depressed and they want to come to church for a “Fix” • A social club where they can socialize with ...read more

    Atheism is on the rise in America. That is a fact that cannot be rebutted. However, in its claim to be wiser and more "enlightened" that those of us who believe in God, atheism has dragged America into a sewer of ignorance.

    Current statistics tell us that when asked about their religious affiliation or practice, 38% of Americans who were surveyed replied, "None". The category of "None" when it comes to basic beliefs about God and the Bible are rising higher each year. For those of us who are ...read more

None of them said that any of their belongings were their own, but they all shared with one another everything they had.” (GNB) Those of us who have been born again as children of God, and have the ...read more
