When People Will Not Listen

Have you ever tried to tell someone something important, but for what ever reason, the person seemed uninterested? If you have, then you can understand the frustration that comes with such. For generations, God had been telling the Israelites/Jews what would happen to them if they lived sinfully. Yet, time after time it seemed that

Learning When And When Not To Judge

I imagine that many of the ones that will read this article have heard something similar to the following: “You are not my judge”, or “We are not to judge”. Sadly, this exposes the ignorance of many of those who say such things. More than likely, the idea that all judging is wrong comes from

Dual Citizenship

For the child of God, he is in a unique situation. While physically he is a citizen of his city, county, state, and nation, he is also a spiritual citizen of Heaven. Paul wrote to the Philippians instructing them, “For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord

Marriage

In the recent past of mankind, there have been some who have worked to change the way man thinks about marriage. Even though some have heeded to the calls of change, the definition of marriage still remains the same. After the creation of man, there was a statement made by God that showed His understanding

What Are We Seeking?

The Bible makes it clear that there are two different types of life that a man can choose to live. One is a righteous life that is demonstrated by living in obedience to God’s Word. The other is a wicked life that is lived in rejection of God’s Word. Each person must choose his own

It does not take long for one to read the writings of Paul and see his great love for the souls of men. On one occasion, Paul gave a strong warning to the Christians in Ephesus. He wrote, “For this we know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater,

No Atheists on Judgment Day

It was not that long ago that atheism was only marginally embraced. Now it seems that more and more people are adopting the view that God is not real. Seemingly educated individuals have forsaken logic and evidence to embrace man’s theories. Instead of accepting the truth that God exists, some have become militant-like in their

He Did It Anyway

It is incredibly disappointing to know that so many people are either ignorant, or have been taught incorrectly about the death of Jesus. Believe it or not, you might even encounter some who claim that Jesus did not realize why He came to Earth. Let me state, before I go any further, that Jesus knew

What Day Is The Lord’s Day?

I will begin by stating that each day is a gift of God. “This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it” (Psm. 118:24). However, there is a certain day that has been given the designation “the Lord’s day”. John wrote, “I was in the Spirit on

Lord, Are There Few That Be Saved?

While working during His earthly ministry, Jesus was asked a question that might have crossed your mind at some time. “Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved…” (Luke 13:23)? It is has been the concern of many whether or not they will get to Heaven. The answer that Jesus gave
