God’s Grace Has Spiritual Standards

Titus 2:11-12 (KJB) For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, 12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world.

God’s grace is not just a “spiritual throw blanket” for use in covering our sin.  Or to allow us to do anything we want.  Putting on God’s grace comes with a choice, a cost, His standards, and holy expectations.

God’s ...

David was to Attack the Philistines from Behind

One God, Not Many

1 Timothy 2:5-6 (KJB) For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

There is a significant difference between a God who is alive and a multitude of dead and dormant gods.

First, notice the little “g” and the capital “G” in the spelling.  This capitalization is of great importance for it implies His position above ...

Up Close and Personal with the Apostle Paul Series

Romans 1:1 (KJB)   Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God.

Awestruck by His Word

Awestruck by His Word

Psalm 119:161 (KJB) SCHIN. Princes have persecuted me without a cause: but my heart standeth in awe of thy word.

It is a sad fact today that many hearts have failed to stand in awe of the power and presence of God, or His Word.  Today we are spiritually privileged to have the entire sacred inspired recordings of God to hold in our hand.  In ancient times a man could only reflect upon words of God ...

God Personally Showed Up

2 Chronicles 5:13-14 (KJB) It came even to pass, as the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of musick, and praised the LORD, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of the ...

When I Saw Him

Revelation 1:17-18 (KJB) And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: 18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.

Imagine a face to face meeting with God.  His face would shine with such light ...

Evil Waxing Worse and Worse

2 Timothy 3:13 (KJB) But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.

 This world is filled with evil men.

As time winds down, there is no doubt that the presence of evil is becoming worse and worse.

This truth should not surprise any person who is familiar with the rise and reign of evil or its final fall as recorded in God’s Word.  God spared no truth in telling mankind that ...

God Did Not Hide His Utter Distaste for Sodom

Genesis 13:12-13 (KJB) Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and pitched his tent toward Sodom. 13 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly.

The men of Sodom, or the Sodomites, whom God declared as exceedingly wicked sinners before Him.

God had separated both Abram and Lot from living among these flagrant sins of Sodom.  God moved ...

Singing About the Lord in Captivity

Psalm 137:3-4 (KJB) For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion. 4 How shall we sing the LORD’S song in a strange land?

These scripture verses are speaking of a time when the Israelite’s, God’s chosen people, were taken captive for seventy years.  This captivity was a result of their repeated ...
