“Who Are You To Judge Me?” How many times have we heard someone say that, whether it was directed to us or to someone else? It’s easy for most of us to get offended when others express disapproval of our actions. By nature, most of us are very private. We resent outsiders intruding uninvited into […]

Saul Knew Who He Was
Saul(who became the Apostle Paul) was a zealous Jew who was taught at the feet of Gamaliel he knew how serious it was to take the name of the Lord in vain. He hated the early church in that persecuted them for preaching Jesus. But on the road to Damascus when the light shone about […]
Therefore God Exalted Him to the Highest Place
“Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Phil 2:9-11) […]
Jesus Christ is the Almighty God
Jesus Christ is the Almighty God. Rev. 1:8 He is declared to be the IMAGE of the Invisible God. Col. 1:15 In Him alone is the fullness of the Godhead dwelling bodily. Col. 2:9 He is Jehovah of the OT. Isa. 40:3 John declared Him to be God. Jn. 1:1 Thomas declared Him to be […]
A Wondrous Display of the Love of God
The question, “What think ye of Christ?” presents a dilemma to any thinking person. If Jesus Christ was not all that He claimed to be, He was the greatest deceiver of all time. Either we must accept Him as God made manifest in the flesh or reject him as the one who claimed to be […]

Scripture explains thoroughly the meaning of the word it used in the first verse of Hebrews 11:1 (faith) in the rest of the chapter when it repeatedly demands faith be accompanied by action and since that faith from a human standpoint is always defined as faith toward God, what action can be made toward God […]
Why the Old Men Wept
And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of the LORD, they set the priests in their apparel with trumpets, and the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise the LORD, after the ordinance of David king of Israel. And they sang together by course in praising and giving thanks unto […]
Seared Instead of Sacred!
1Ti 4:1-2 “Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;” Far too many people have an unconscious conscience. Most people seem to think that their conscience […]
