“A GOOD DEED IS A STEP TOWARD GOD” The above words were on a marquee in front of one of the largest churches here in town a while back. Evidently these supposed “words of wisdom” were intended to give directions to earth’s struggling anthropoids in their evolutionary ascension to paradise. They convey an idea which, […]
What Is The Gospel? After all the logic, after all the reasoning, when the smoke blows away and the dust settles we are left finally with this piercing question. We know that, “The gospel is the [only] power of God unto salvation to everyone that believes …” “Neither is there salvation in any other: for […]
The Pillar and Ground of the Truth The church of the living God as she is seen in her local assemblies is the pillar and ground of the truth. Though these assemblies are few and far between they alone have the light of the gospel of Jesus Christ. They stand wherever God has gathered them […]
Betraying Christ with a kiss Judas betrayed his Master with a KISS! He came to the Lord with evil in his heart, the price of a compromise in his hand, religious devils at his side, and said, “Hail Master”, as he planted a KISS on the Lord’s cheek! This is how most apostates and compromisers […]
God has made this same Jesus Acts 2:36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. I hear people speak of a Jesus who is trying his best to save everyone, for it is contrary to his will for […]
Throughout the book of Romans, when Paul refers to those who walk after the flesh and those who walk after the Spirit he is speaking of religious folks, not immoral folks.

The Bible is filled with illustrations of this truth – Mt 7:22-23; Mt 23:27; Mt 25:32; John 14:21; 1John 3:14. This discernible difference is characterized from an inward presence of the indwelling Spirit of God which […]
Why Are We Persecuted? Matthew 5: 10-12 Persecution means to push away. It includes everything from words of rejection to being tortured unto death. Matthew 5: 3 By grace, the believer confesses the utter sin he is in the flesh. Those who think they possess some good or some strength or are deserving of God’s […]
Not ashamed of the Gospel. Paul the apostle declares (by divine revelation) that he is not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ. This Gospel, the message concerning the person of Christ, is the power of God unto salvation. It is the message alone by which the Holy Ghost calls men effectually out of spiritual darkness […]
“The son of the bondwoman SHALL NOT be heir with the son of the freewoman” Don’t do it my friend, oil and water don’t mix, neither do works and grace! So much of what is called worship, good doctrine and church growth is just that old bondwoman trying to force her way into the kingdom […]
