Marriage and family are of monumental importance to God. Satan and his devotees are attacking this sacred institution as never before. Souls are being lost and homes destroyed by deceptive devices of the devil. When a man marries he is to leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife. Jesus said the two
The church has no higher authority than Jesus and His word. He said “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth” (Mt 28:18). There are no official positions, powers or persons in His church possessing any authority to alter what He said or to order any person to submit to their
Conviction and commitment are scorned by postmodernists. To them nothing is so disgusting as the man who is unyielding in his faith, who “hates every false way” (Psa 119:104). The word “tolerance” is a key word for liberal politicians and liberal theologians. Tolerance is here defined as weakness or compromise. In other ways it is
Man’s law approves homosexual marriage. God’s law says marriage is one man and one woman till death separates them, and that the sexually immoral shall not go to heaven (Gen 2:18-24; Eph 5:20-33). Man’s law says do not preach the gospel, but wait for others to ask you about it. God’s law says “go preach
Acts chapter two records the first conversions to Christ after His resurrection. Jesus earlier prayed for himself, his apostles and all believers (John 17), then his suffering and death followed as he had predicted, saying that “repentance and forgiveness of sins” would be preached to all nations beginning in Jerusalem (Lk 24:46-48). All arrows point
Jesus did not surround himself with spiritual people. He always welcomed common people, outcasts and notorious sinners. A particular scandal arose from his association with tax collectors Zachaeus and Matthew (Lk19:1-9). He outraged religious leaders when he reached out to such people. He even ate with them and sat at their tables. The spiritually elite
“There is a time and a place for everything” (Eccl 3:1). While vacationing, you may have heard a concert pianist playing beautiful music in the lobby of a hotel. That would have been a blessing from God, and appreciation of it is from Him. This is entertainment; not worship. As such, as the song ended,
Our merciful Father has given forceful warnings in all ages concerning dangers ahead. For the most part, warnings are ignored, resulting in disastrous consequences. There are always stubborn unbelievers who will not listen but refuse to evacuate and thousands have perished. We can trace Bible history in at least seven eras of how God has
Jesus was given “all authority” from the Father (Mt 28:18). Even though He was “in the beginning with the Father” and Himself “was God” (John 1:1,14), He still was subject to the Father and did “nothing on His own” but “just what the Father taught” Him to do (John 8:28). This is also stated in
In today’s world, the politically correct thing is to either keep quiet, or to agree to disagree. But what about God’s Holy Word? Should we not be bold and not ashamed when our Bibles plainly speak the truth? We all want to go to heaven. Paul wrote, “I am not ashamed of the gospel for
