“And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them. And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them: but his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.” Luke 20:50-51 Mary’s heart must have stored a whole lot. First, Angel Gabriel’s annunciation to the young virgin girl. […]

During my lifetime there have been about 100 false predictions regarding the Lord’s return, and every one of them was made by someone who sincerely believed they were living in last of the last days. The end times, in other words (although the phrase “end times” is found nowhere in scripture). Every time Halley’s Comet […]

Hebrews 12:1-4 “Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who […]

In this world of anxiety and fear, it is a radical thing to proclaim the eternal security of the believer: One with the Lord, your future is the same as his. No one can snatch you from his hand; nothing can separate you from his love. Yet every time I say things like this, someone […]
Continue Reading“God Without Religion” by Andrew Farley
The problem with religion is that it comes naturally to us. Ever since our ancestors chomped on the forbidden fruit, we’ve had an innate sense of right and wrong that informs everything we do. Instead of trusting our heavenly Father, we trust our own religious instincts. Instead of walking by the spirit, we rely on […]

2 Tim 3:12 “Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.” The discussions about persecution regarding the believer is not an ‘if’, but a ‘when’. For it shall surely come. It is a natural consequence of living godly in this present world. In the light of the above, the believer […]

Without an understanding of what I have to share today, it would look like you are going around begging people to do something for you. John 6:13-15. One of the truths the Holy Spirit guides you into is the truth concerning the ANOINTING. GOD HATH ALREADY ANOINTED US. 2 Corinthians 1:20-22. The anointing is not […]

I once asked the Lord, “What does it mean to live under grace?” and this was His response, “When you are conscious of My constant supply to you, you are living under grace.” Sometimes, though, we can’t help but be more conscious of the daily demands placed on us. Perhaps yours look like this: Providing […]
Continue ReadingJesus, the Perfect Sacrificial Lamb
The old way had a glory but this glory ultimately led to death. Moses’ face shone with this glory even though it was already fading away. Now, if this old way was considered glorious, how much glorious is the new way which makes us right with God. As a matter of fact, the first glory […]
Continue ReadingIs Preaching of Unconditional Grace (Hyper-Grace) “Dangerous”?
Is Hyper-Grace “dangerous” or “imbalanced”? In recent times, a label has surfaced regarding what some view as a “dangerous” or “imbalanced” teaching of the grace of God. “Hyper-Grace” is now a term being used to suggest that there are some folks (such as myself) who “take God’s grace too far” and in so doing either […]
