2 Cor 13:5: Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, of course, you fail the test? To the one who stands on his own performance, this is a frightening verse.... we aren't to examine ourselves to see if we are [...]

Response to Covid-19!
Simple truth.... When He died - YOU died When He was buried - YOU were buried When He rose - YOU rose When He ascended - YOU ascended AND where He is seated - YOU are seated!! SPOILER ALERT -- where He is seated there is no Covid-19!!! Likewise where YOU are seated is NO [...]
Woe unto you…..
When Jesus said "WOE" to the Pharisees and the religious leaders of His day, it wasn't a stern warning to them or a harsh rebuke. In Greek it is a word uttered in grief. In Hebrew it is the word oy which means a lamentation (a passionate expression of grief; weeping), it is a crying [...]
Christ IN you
Galatians 1:16 (God was pleased v.15) to reveal His Son IN (en) me, that I might preach Him IN (en) the gentiles.... Romans 10:20: Isaiah is very bold (courageously laying it all on the line) and says: I (God) was found IN (en) those not seeking (Hebraism meaning worshipping) Me; I manifest Myself IN those [...]
Ungodly
How it must grieve God when we refer to anyone as ungodly Genesis 1:26: And God said let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness.... When man left the garden he continued to be like God, he just lost his understanding of it. But he was still created in God's image according [...]

Branches NOT bearing fruit….
John 15:1-2: "I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. (2) Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away...." takes away in the Greek is to lift up; to bear; to carry Every branch not bearing fruit He lifts up and carries. He bears them up. He doesn't cut [...]
Faith understands….
Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. ~ Hebrews 11:3 I love this verse! First it tells us that faith understands. We know through Paul's teachings that the faith we live by is not [...]
Is God Too Holy? A Look At Isaiah 59:2
Today we preach a gospel that says our sin separates us from God.... and that only those not in sin have a relationship or fellowship with God. We categorize believers as those not in sin and unbelievers as those still in sin. The problem with that is that there are plenty of believers who sin [...]
