Salvation

Wanting Jesus

If you don’t want Jesus in the valley, you also won’t want Him on the mountaintop.

Love is a Choice

The Lord’s offer of love requires a choice because we are entering a marriage.

Only Jesus

His desire is to fill you with a love like you’ve never known, yet has been available this entire time.

Because of Christmas…

Because of Christmas … we can hope for the impossible and we can trust the good, good Father.

Holy, Holy, Holy

So celebrate not only this season but sit daily with Him face-to-face.

Saved By Grace

Frivolous treatment of grace gives Satan reason to grin and rub his hands in glee.

On Religious Futility

Prior to second birth, the internal reality of a man or woman–even those who are religious–is sadly predictable. 

Message in a Bottle

The message in the “bottle” that had come straight from heaven was all about redemption–Christ lifted up on the cross.

Captured

My life was distorted and full of compromise before I captured the fullness of life in Christ.

The Altar of the Lord

The Lord has made us His temple, His holy priests, and His sacrifices to offer at His altar.

Paths

By our actions, we determine the road that we will find ourselves on—paths to goodness and greatness or paths to a chaotic existence.

Is All Sin the Same?

Yes, we are still sinners, and yes, we will still sin. But when we trust in the Lord, He frees us from the PENALTY of sin.

Available Help

God is always there and available to help in any way that a person needs, not just physical needs but mental and spiritual needs.

The Joy of Jesus

In His obedience, Jesus lived a sinless life and carried our sins in His body on the cross as a ransom for every person who would believe and receive.

The Last Enemy

While His cross dealt with our sins, His resurrection spoke directly to the death element filling us and looming over our future.

Is it a Formula Or an Encounter?

We have an open door into personal relationship with the King of Kings, not just to observe, but to learn Who He really is and His Way.

Fountain Of Life

The true fountain of life springs up in the believer as one sees the light of God in Jesus.

Why Are You Here?

We continually go back to the dead places looking for comfort and peace.

You Decide

If Jesus is your King, don’t cower to the crowd of accusers.

The Redeemed Life

He bought us back from our grime-filled life, and we are now forever His.

I Am

Salvation of soul is Messiah’s reward for those who respond to His Call.

God’s Family – Coming Home

The birth of Jesus Christ speaks of reconciliation, it speaks of God’s love, and it speaks of a hope that bonds us back together in God’s family.

On Offensive Theology

The most staid, logical person will suffer IQ reduction when emotions get involved.  

Never Before

The first disciples were forerunners for millions who would follow their example.

Chosen Instrument

As snakes shed their covering to produce new growth, scales fell from his eyes, and he was filled with the Holy Ghost.

Called to Faith

We’re called to enter into a faith that’s abstract and yet so very concrete and solid!

Transformed

Jesus is the Savior and the Lover of our souls!

Guiding Light

The Light of the World has come to give us new life and He sends the Holy Spirit as our guiding light.

Spiritual Suicide

Deception started in the Garden and is still at work today. The one who was cunning then still leads mankind astray.

Choices

A life of choice to follow our Savior.

I Fell Asleep

I have been awakened by the power of the Resurrection . . . awakened to live a life devoted to the way of Christ. So yea — I’m woke, won’t you join me?

Christianity is Easy

There will be challenges in this life and there will always be a cost associated with being a true disciple of Christ.

The Trading Post

Jesus sacrificed His holiness to be the offering to cleanse our soul.

A New Kind of Prodigal

Those who greet these returning ones with the heart of the Father, not the shame and judgment of the older brother, will enter a collaborative Kingdom relationship.

O Come Let Us Adore Him

O come let us adore Him sing praises to the King, daily He gives you all of Him, what will to Him you bring?

Giving Yourself Away

Because we were made in his image, by design our existence can only find its true orientation when we are in harmony with him.

I Came for You

God came for you, You are good enough, you are wanted, cared for, important to Him, and you never have to earn your Savior’s love.

Perfection Not Required

What God looks for is someone who is willing, someone who leans on His strength, and does things His way.

The Boy with No Name

“Out of control”, “monster”, “destructive” were stuck to him every day… but none of them was his name.

The Person of Our Salvation

For the last 2,000 years, the uncompromising truth of Jesus as the only way to God has caused men and women to lay down their lives to bring others to Christ.

Triune Evangelism

What should we be telling someone when God is moving upon them to move them to salvation?

In the Belly of the Whale

When God’s love truly dwells within, we will find it easier to extend grace to those
who don’t think like us, worship like us, pray like us, or vote like us — even within the Church.

A Rapture Study: One Taken, One Left

Here I’ll continue to take a look at the differences between the rapture and the second coming,
this time by heading to Matthew 24:40-41, a section that is often attributed to being the rapture of the church.

The Day the World Broke

There was a moment when the world passed from the idyllic and perfect, to the ironic and tragic.

Our Sweet Lord Jesus

Kingdom rule is with the open heart. This is why you must love your enemies. It is also why you must stay close.
