Grief About Sin is Necessary

Grief About Sin is Necessary

November 13th, 2019

Proverbs 15:13 (KJB) A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.

I find it quite sad when professing Christians spend all their time making light of current situations with satire.  Sarcasm is not suitable in every circumstance of life.  God did not call us to make others laugh by making a mockery of this lost world but rather to sow seeds of the gospel message.

God’s Word tells us that It is by sorrow in the heart that ...

Sin Comes Under the Cover of Darkness

Sin Comes Under the Cover of Darkness

Sin Comes Under the Cover of Darkness

Proverbs 4:18-19 (KJB) But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. 19 The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble.

Sin is associated with darkness while God is The Light of the world.

There is no way that a person can dress up evil into anything other than what it is- darkness.  While it is ...

More Conviction Less Being Offended

2 Corinthians 7:9-10 (KJB) Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing. 10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

Sometimes it seems that conviction is a dying word and a lost spiritual action in this world.  ...

The Old Nature is Crucified

The Old Nature is Crucified

The Old Nature is Crucified

Galatians 5:24 (KJB) And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

Here is a key verse in living the Christian life.  Those who genuinely belong to Christ have died to self and the calling of the flesh.   Anotherwards what they want and desire in their life is set aside to serve and savor God and to follow His will for their life.

Life becomes all about Him rather than us ...

Atoned for All Sin

Atoned for All Sin

Atoned for All Sin

Isaiah 53:6 (KJB) All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

This Old Testament prophecy examined the sin problem of every heart and the coming supernatural prescription, through Jesus Christ, to atone for sin.  These first few verses of chapter fifty-three in the book of Isaiah, including verse six above, are essential verses to understand about ...

Sin is Never A Bargain

Sin is Never A Bargain

Sin is Never A Bargain

1 Peter 2:24 (KJB) Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

Sin is expensive to the sinner.

Sin is expensive to everyone; strangers, friends, acquaintances and family members around a person choosing to sin.  An individual is always affected by second-hand consequences of sin.

Sin is expensive for every spiritually lost soul.

Sin was never ...

Satan Is the Great Manipulator

Satan Is the Great Manipulator

Satan Is the Great Manipulator

Genesis 3:1 (KJB) Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

Satan is the original dark angel who thoroughly enjoys manipulating God’s Truth into what he desires it to say.  Satan enjoys changing truth into lies and is just waiting to trip unsuspecting people, like ...

Out of Fellowship with God

Out of Fellowship with God

February 12, 2019

Out of Fellowship with God

Genesis 3:8 (KJB) And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.

This day was different.

Why?

God was walking in the garden alone.  He was there, but they were no longer walking with Him.

Adam and Eve ordinarily walked in sweet fellowship with God.  However, they were ...

Spiritual Conflict Naturally Lies Within Ourselves

Romans 8:3-5 (KJB) For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: 4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the ...
