    Our Traditions Make The Gospel Of No Effect

    Contributed by Wayne Barnes on Nov 27, 2016
     | 4,111 views

    Condemnation through traditions of men stifles the true gospel and destroys the Christian Life

    If a billionaire was to enter almost any church he would be especially honored, same way a swashbuckling movie star hunk. But when a LGBT or prostitute walks in, suddenly a crisis has arisen, even if both sets have truly turned their hearts to God through Christ. In other churches, it would be ...read more

    What if an alien could read the Bible and see what God desires, then drives past our church (mosque, temple)? Whose God is the true God? Who’s worth it? (No wonder the world doesn’t know Him!)

    Worship, true worship, is the quality a Father looks for in His children. Man’s chief end is to glorify God, to honor Him, and to worship Him. Worship means to show worth and/or value. What is God worth to you? (see John 4:19-24, Hebrews 10:19-25) 1. WORSHIP IS: Posturing Myself before ...read more

    One of the sad truths is that we Christians will sin. No matter how diligently we devote ourselves to practicing righteousness, we are going to miss the mark and sin. When we realize that we have disobeyed God, in some fashion, what should be our response

    True Confessions Proverbs 28:13 The Apostle John proclaims an unfortunate truth, in 1 John 1:8, 10, when he says, “If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us…If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.” One of the ...read more

    Our Lord reveals that love is the proof of discipleship. Without love, our titles, gifts, and spiritual activities are meaningless.

    I honestly don’t know if Jesus is glorified through crackers and grape juice. And I wonder what he must think when we come together, go through our little religious ritual and leave with the same me-first mentality that we came in with.

    Today I want to look at the different viewpoints of the last supper from the 4 gospels. Traditionally only 3 of the gospels are credited with recognizing the last supper, Matthew, Mark and Luke. Let’s look at those: Matthew 26:20-30 20When it was evening, Jesus sat down at the table with the ...read more

    A True Friend

    These are the words of God spoken regarding two men Joshua and Caleb, both of whom were good friends. The question we need to ask ourselves is, ‘Do we have such true and good friends in our lives?’ Often, we don’t take time to choose these good friends.

    Today’s meditation is based on Numbers 14:30, “You will not enter and occupy the land I swore to give you. The only exceptions will be Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.” (NLT) These are the words of God spoken regarding two men Joshua and Caleb, both of whom were good friends.
