Whosoever Loveth And Maketh A Lie

Revelation 22:15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. The above should be a sOBering thought for all who read it. It should be a challenge for all to "think before you speak," and to "look before you leap." One group teaches that there is not a verse in the entire Bible where God commands Gentile Converts to faith in Christ to tithe their money. Another group teaches that God's Word commands Gentile Conv

Whose Image And Superscription?

“Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s, and unto God that which is God’s.” Matthew 12:21 The above statement made by Jesus to the scribes and Pharisees is often taken out of its context and used by pastors and laymen alike, in an attempt to prove that God requires tithe of money from the Church member today. But, when read in context with the entire discourse, and rightly dividing the Word of Truth, it is easy to see that Jesus was not endorsing a monetary tithe at all. Nor was He saying

Who turned on the lights?

Hello Family of God, "No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light. For [NOTHING IS SECRET], that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, [THAT SHALL NOT BE KNOWN] and come abroad." (Luke 8:16-17) Words contained within [brackets] are used to expound on/place emphasis on certain words or phrases; there may also be grammatical errors, such as: punctuatio

Who is Like God?

Hello Family of God, There has been so much humanism attributed to God, and much of the Bible concerning the nature of God has been misinterpreted by scholars and theologians as a result of applying the faculties of the limited mind of man in determining the eternal mind of God; especially when God Himself "decides" to respond or react according to His Divine Nature and Immutable Attributes. We see examples of this in Scripture where God seemingly acts in a way which appears contrary to His

Understanding and Knowing the One True and Living God

Hello Family of God, I will be sharing some FACTS regarding the Triune God of Scripture and His Immutable Attributes. It seems as if the God of Holy Scripture has been accused and slandered among many, even those who profess to belong to Christ and God. I will begin with . . .  [Why God must be Triune in BEING]: Simple Answer: God is Love; and what I mean by that is the Divine/Perfect Love shared within the Triune Godhead from Eternity past (cf. Matt. 17:2; Jn. 17:24; 2 Pet. 1:17)

UNASHAMED: Romans 1:16-17

This is my first sermon and would like some feedback. I am looking for feedback on the content of the sermon i.e. were there any error's in my teaching, doctrinal issues, etc. I am more concerned with preaching truth than how I look and sound. My pastor was pleased with the content and so was my grandfather who has been an independent baptist pastor for 50 years. I take them at their word but I would like feedback from other folks. https://youtu.be/X_ygaJ-Mf8E?t=2441

Trust in the Lord

Psalms 37:1-5, “Trust in the Lord.”   Verse 1 – 5, “Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust

Transparent Inscrutability

Hello Family of God, What God has revealed to His chosen people is contained in Holy Scripture; However, there are mysteries hidden in secret which God Himself will not disclose at this present time (Deut. 29:29; Dan. 2:22; Mk. 13:32; Lk. 8:17; 1 Cor. 4:5; 13:12; Eph. 1:9; Col. 1:26; 1 Tim. 5:24-25; Rev. 10:4). We want to make absolutely certain that if anyone claims to have "hidden or secretive" knowledge that is NOT revealed in the Word of God, that we are to examine such claims utilizing

Our Lord led this blind man out of town, put spit on his eyes and asked him if he saw ought. the blind man said "I see men as trees walking". now I have read many sermons and commentaries on this subject and it seems they all have one thing in agreement , that for many different reasons given our Lord was unable to accomplish the task when he first attempted it. some say because of their unbelief,others because of the area he was in......etc.If you all would bear with me a little in my folly, I

Titus 3

“This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.” (v. 8) Good works do not come by osmosis. Because we are flesh, many times we have to work at producing good works. When we want to lash out with out tongues at someone, we have to learn to bite our tongue; when we would strike them in anger, we need to restrain ourselves; good works

Titus 2

“But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:” (v. 1) I am afraid we are “losing it” in the church today, as well as in our country. As our inalienable rights seem to flee away by political subtly and avarice, our churches are also losing their influence and the old ways are falling by the wayside. Our “roots” have been severed and we are dying on the vine. Sound doctrine, at the time of Paul, did not need defining as it does today. If we admonish men to hold to sound doctr

Quick devotions for those on the move. “Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake.” (v. 11) I feel a need to focus on the first line of this verse, “Whose mouths must be stopped”. We do not realize the danger of those who oppose the truth and spread their deceit as a plague and infect the hearts and minds of young Christians, and even seek to beguile the older and more mature believers who really want to do rig

Three Abominations

Three Abominations Prov. 15 “The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight.” (v. 8) The wicked offer many sacrifices to the Lord, but they do it not in the sincerity of their heart. Many use their so-called sacrifices as bargaining power; they seem to think they can bargain with the Lord, and yet, Christians find themselves doing the very same thing at times! When troubles and trials come our way, don’t we cry unto the Lord an

Thoughts On Psalms 119 ALEPH

Psalms 119:1-8                                         Sep. 5 - Oct. 2, 2019 1 ALEPH. Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD. 2 Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart. 3 They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways. 4 Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently. 5 O that my ways were directed to keep thy statutes! 6 Then shall I not be ashamed, when I have respect unto all thy commandments. 7 I

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature

Old things are passed away . . . I was on the broad way (road) leading to destruction (Matthew 7:13). I was lost (Luke 19:10; 2 Corinthians 4:3). I was condemned already because of my unbelief (John 3:18; compare 1 Corinthians 11:32). I was a lover of darkness (John 3:19). I was under God's abiding wrath (John 3:36) awaiting God's coming wrath (Luke 3:7; Ephesians 5:6; Colossians 3:6). I was an ignorant worshiper (John 4:22). I was an evildoer deserving judgment (John 5:29; comp

The Sacrifice of the Lord Jesus

  1 John 4:10, “The Propitiation for Our sins.”   “Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.” 1 John 4:10   The word propitiation means, “an atoning sacrifice.” An atoning sacrifice is a sacrifice that atones for sins.

The Mystery of the Triune Godhead

Hello Family of God, (Parentheses) within Bible passages cited are used to expound on the word/s in [brackets] which precede the parentheses. ALL CAPS are used for double emphasis; this is my way of saying, "It says what it says, and it means what it means." The Bible is self-explanatory (i.e., "the best defense of Scripture is Scripture itself") in its interpretation (i.e., "the perspicuity of Scripture"), but even to this day, we find unnecessary criticism from Biblical "scholars" and the

The Divine Love of God our Father

Hello Family of God,  The Love of God has been distorted with the influence of false ideologies, theories, speculations, philosophies, and erroneous deceptions and lies from none other than Satan himself. The god of this age has blinded the minds of the unregenerate as if they were taken captive by the Devil's Will and imprisoned (Gen. 3:1; Jn. 8:44; 2 Cor. 4:4; 10:3–5; 2 Thess. 2:9; Rev. 20:7–8).

The Characteristics Of Love

The Characteristics of Love 1. Love desires reciprocation. A one-sided love promotes frustration and discontent. Love desires company (companionship). 1 John 4:19. 2. Love is unbiased, without prejudice. It is unconditional; Conditioned love is mock love. 3. Love is eternal. There is no “falling out of love”; Nothing can replace true love, as it has no end. 4. Love cannot be described. No words adequate enough to describe love. (“so much” as in John
