     | 2,013 views

    Sinners and the government are not the real problem. We are our own worse enemies refusing to clean ourselves up so sinners will want to be clean.

    Romans 13:1  Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.  2  Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves ...read more

    We who follow Christ are responsible to present the message of grace at every opportunity. Many will dismiss our message as foolish talk. We must honestly present the truth to such people, refusing to give up our stand for the truth.

    “As [Paul] was saying these things in his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, ‘Paul, you are out of your mind; your great learning is driving you out of your mind.’ But Paul said, ‘I am not out of my mind, most excellent Festus, but I am speaking true and rational words.

    In Hebrews 10:35-36, the writer speaks to a group of weary believers, who are tempted to throw in the towel and give up their faith in the face of persecution and hardship. Instead of encouraging them to quit, the author urges them to press on, to hold tightly to their confidence in God’s promises.

    Persevering in Faith: Holding On to God’s Promises Hebrews 10:35-36 (NLT) – “So do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord. Remember the great reward it brings you! Patient endurance is what you need now, so that you will continue to do God’s will. Then you will receive all that he has ...read more

    What does it mean for us to "take up your cross" and deny ourselves. I signed up for the benefits! I didn’t sign up to die.

    OPEN: I recently read the true story about a preacher who was standing at the door shaking hands as the congregation departed. He grabbed one man by the hand and pulled him aside.

     | 4,700 views

    I have seen in my own life and in the life of other Christians, something that disturbs me; it’s that we are often more concerned about the things of this life than we are about the things of the life to come.

    When everything is theoretical,everyone loves to coexist, everyone celebrates diversity. Interfere with their lifestyle and you become part of the problem, not part of the solution.

    To say that there is one God hinders social harmony. To claim that there is only one way to salvation is an affront to our diversity. To allege that a belief is wrong is the ultimate bigotry. Christians are the problem - Christians not part of the solution. Paul and his companions run into ...read more

    On Saturday, May 21, 1927, a New York evening paper contained an expert’s elaborate demonstration of the impossibility of flight across the Atlantic Ocean.

    There is little hope of revival or a large harvest of souls until we clean up our own backyard.

    I believe there are too many dictators among the cessationists and too many false prophets and con artists in the Charismatic movement because people do not read the Word in context. Their hermeneutic is experience, not sound doctrine. In the Cessationist groups if you question a pastor you get ...read more

    El Misterio De Goshen

    La Tierra de Gosén tenía tantos misterios que solo Dios podía desentrañar. "Cuanto más afligían a los israelitas, más se multiplicaban". Cada vez que Dios bendijo a Israel, maldijo a Egipto. Que Dios proteja a los cristianos perseguidos en todo el mundo.

    EL MISTERIO DE GOSHEN Entonces el faraón habló a José, diciendo: "Tu padre y tus hermanos han venido a ti. La tierra de Egipto está ante ti. Deja que tu padre y tus hermanos habiten en lo mejor de la tierra; que habiten en la tierra de Gosén. Y si conoces a ...read more

    Le pays de Gosen avait tant de mystères que seul Dieu pouvait les démêler. "Plus les Égyptiens affligeaient les Israélites, plus ils se multipliaient." Que Dieu protège tous les chrétiens persécutés.

    LE MYSTÈRE DE GOSHEN Pharaon parla à Joseph et dit : "Ton père et tes frères sont venus vers toi. Le pays d'Égypte est devant toi. Que ton père et tes frères habitent dans le meilleur des pays, qu'ils habitent dans le pays de Gosen. Et si tu connais ...read more

    Ang Lupain ng Goshen ay may napakaraming misteryo na tanging Diyos lamang ang makakalutas. "Habang inaapi nila ang mga Israelita, lalo silang dumami." Nawa'y protektahan ng Diyos ang mga inuusig na Kristiyano sa buong mundo.

    ANG MISTERYO NG GOSHEN Nang magkagayo'y nagsalita si Faraon kay Jose, na sinasabi, Ang iyong ama at ang iyong mga kapatid ay dumating sa iyo. Ang lupain ng Egypt ay nasa harap mo. Hayaan ang iyong ama at mga kapatid na tumira sa abot ng lupain; hayaan silang manirahan sa lupain ng Goshen. At ...read more
