Wise For Salvation Through Faith… When we look around in this world we can see two very distinct situations unfolding. On the one hand we see precisely, to the letter, what Timothy describes in his brilliant second letter… But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a…

Escape The Snare Of The Devil… What is it that we want from this life? What is it that we want during our time in this world? As Ambassadors to the Kingdom of God we should want to glorify Jesus Christ, honor His Miracles and Wonders and praise the mighty Works He does using the vessels that belong to Him and Him alone. We should desire to always be better servants of the Kingdom of God and while we will fall short we should turn back to God as quickly…

I Am In The Father… Jesus is Lord. Jesus is God and God is Jesus and They are us and we are Them. What Jesus teaches us as He tells the world that we are all One and the Father dwells in Jesus and Jesus dwells in the Father. Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. ~ John 14:10 KJB…

They Shall Call His Name Emmanuel… If God is ever our enemy this means we must – we must – protect ourselves from God. Could this be true? Is God ever, at any point in time, our enemy? Is God a vengeful God? If God is a vengeful God, what does that make Jesus Christ, Emmanuel? Emmanuel translates to God with us. That means that Jesus is God. Right? If Emmanuel translates to God with us. Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, And…

What Shall A Man Give In Exchange… What does it mean to take up your cross and follow Jesus Christ? For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. ~ Matthew 16:25 KJB What are we willing to lose to follow Jesus Christ? What are we willing to let-go to follow Jesus Christ? It is not uncommon to see wealthy benefactors in the buildings called church that give generously to support a Pastor and the work the Pastor…

Unto Them Which Are Called… Those that think themselves wise will be made foolish. Those that think themselves first will be last. For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. ~ 1 Corinthians 1:18-19 KJB All we have is because of Jesus Christ and His willingness to lay down His life for…

Pray That You May Not Enter Into Temptation… When we walk with Jesus Christ we are in our Christ identity. Why would it be that we should leave from His side? To stay close, keep our eyes upon Jesus is to stay away from temptation. We are in the flesh of sin, that will not change until it does. Before it changes our eyes need to be locked on Jesus Christ, walking in our Christ identity that we may remain prayerful, grateful and humble so temptations are easily recognizable and…

At Thy Word I Will Let Down The Net… Sometimes we see things that never existed. Sometimes we hear things that were never spoken. We must search our hearts to find the Truth. We must seek the Kingdom of God, first, to have the path of Truth cleared for us to see. Then He got into one of the boats, which was Simon’s, and asked him to put out a little from the land. And He sat down and taught the multitudes from the boat. ~ Luke 5:3 NKJB The…

With Their Mouth They Show Much Love… We attend Sunday morning services – worship, prayer and reading of the Word – as we find solace in worshiping and praying with others of the Way. Throughout the week there is much time spent in prayer, either solo in secret or with family and, other times, with friends. Staying in the Word, breathing in the Word and putting a great effort into living by the Word is our goal. Seek first the Kingdom of God, ask for Jesus’ direction and knock upon…

Individually Members Of One Another… Doing the wrong thing is easy. There is no thought, simply doing. On the other hand, doing the right thing requires thought – requires right thought, followed by action. In order for us to accomplish the right thing we must seek the Kingdom of God, first, with every thought before there is action. We must transform out mind and bind our mind to the Mind of Christ with each thought that we are charged to take into captivity. Every thought. Doing the wrong thing is…
