This world is corrupt with sin and sickness and it’s bringing fear upon people everywhere. The Ten Commandments are being replaced with “rights” and with “privilege” to those with money and power, making God’s law of no effect. The time we’re living in is bringing sorrows and hardships and now more than ever before, we need to obey God and keep the peace. Continue reading
What is the Reward of my Faith?
The subject of faith is a very controversial one in the religious realm and few truly understand what faith is, why we need it and how our lives are blessed because of it.

Yes, God Hates Some Things!
The impression of God in this new age is that His only character is love. He loves everyone, accepts everything and has made a home in Heaven for all of us. We’re led to believe that if we are a real Christian then we, too, will love everyone and accept everyone as equally loved by God; after all, God is our Heavenly Father and we are all His creation. We’re told that the real “god” doesn’t’ hate Continue reading
Christianity is not about ME!
The best decision anyone will make in their lifetime is to receive the salvation of Christ. Unfortunately, many people think that now, with Jesus on their side to ward off the evils of this world, they can be all they want to be and have all they desire. But they have it all backwards. Christianity is not about “me”! Continue reading
Who are the Children of God?
There’s an attitude spreading across the globe today that wants us to put our differences aside and live as one big multi-cultural family under God. It says that regardless of what we call Him, we are all God’s children. Well, God does love everyone, but we are not all His children. Continue reading
The Joy of the Lord
Have you ever wondered how some people can be so happy and carefree one minute, and then become totally ticked and angry at the slightest dispute the next?

‘Twas the Night Before Christmas
‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Every creature was praising, even the mouse.
The Bibles were open to the pages with care
And showed us so clearly that Jesus was near.
The children were singing and clapping their hands
With visions of a baby being born in the land. Continue reading
Let’s Celebrate Christmas!
The Christmas season is upon us and it’s truly the most wonderful time of year! Not counting the bah-humbug groups, most people everywhere are happy and friendly and filled with the seasonal joy.

The Cost of Telling the Truth
Recently, a family friend, who’s always claimed to be a Christian, asked me why some of his family didn’t accept his “male” spouse as part of the family. It was a moment of deliberation for me. Do I tell him that he’s actually sinning against God by engaging in this lifestyle? Continue reading
To Jesus We Give Thanks!
The season of Thanksgiving is a cherished day. We prepare our delicious feasts and wait for family and friends to arrive and share in the joy of it all! It’s a special day for a reason—we are thankful! And we want to celebrate our blessings! We want to give Jesus our thanks! Continue reading
Prayer Can Delay Judgment!
There has never been such a need for Christians to pray as there is today! Our lives are literally hanging on a thread and if that thread snaps, then the plunge we take will be deadly. But if we can secure that thread in time, we will prevent the fall. And there’s still time to call upon God in this 2016 presidential election! Continue reading

How to Tell if a Christian is Real or Fake
Today there are many denominations of “Christianity” that appease the different emotions and lifestyles. And there are many diverse doctrines, yet they all proclaim to know God. Jesus tells us that not everyone who says they are a Christian is a Christian, so how can we tell if someone is a real Christian or a fake? Continue reading
Where are the Peacemakers?
America has become totally absorbed with the presidential campaign. “Trump”—”Clinton”; that’s all we hear about lately. Media sites are being flooded with the latest information that’s been dug up on the candidates, and whether it’s true or a rumor, it doesn’t matter; it’s dirty and juicy and people want to spread it. Continue reading
Lasting Impressions
As Christians, most of us want to leave a lasting impression on others through our testimony. And most people—especially zealous and ambitious newbies—tend to use words to demonstrate their religious fervor. Yet, words alone can be deceiving because they don’t always reflect the actual character of the person. Continue reading
Misguided Treasures
Many Christians look for the confirmation of God’s love in the big things in life; things such as cars, financial freedom, material blessings, a great job and even social status. But we will never see God when we have to look through “things” to find Him. Continue reading
