Regardless of what we face today or of what goes on around us, we must keep ourselves focused on the love of God. Jesus came and died on the cross for us and took away our sins so that we could be redeemed back to God, our Father. When we study the Bible, we live … Continue reading Saturday Blessings

Have a Blessed Good Friday!
This is the day that we honor the fulfillment of God's promise to us, that through His Son Jesus, every person on earth could be cleansed of their sins. There is no gift more precious than the gift of life that Jesus became for us on the cross, and no love greater than the love … Continue reading Have a Blessed Good Friday!
Tell People the Truth
God tells us to love everyone regardless of culture, status or lifestyle because His Spirit lives in us and God loves everyone—so we need to love everyone, as well. New Age Christianity says that loving people means accepting their actions and lifestyles because we are all one big family to God. However, we are not … Continue reading Tell People the Truth
Itching Ears
This New Age Society is bold and aggressive because people don't want to be ruled by the old laws (of God) anymore. Now they are free to enjoy a life of sin and not be condemned for their choice of idolatry and immorality. Perhaps the greatest tragedy in this legalized Godless society, though, is … Continue reading Itching Ears
What are You Doing With God’s Grace?
When Adam and Eve ate from the tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, they fell from the grace of God. Their eyes were opened to the existence of sin and they chose to follow it instead of God. Ever since that day, every person ever born has been given that same choice and … Continue reading What are You Doing With God’s Grace?
Come to the Cross!
This weekend many people will celebrate Easter. Most will exalt the Easter bunny and the gifts of chocolate that he supposedly brings. But Christians will exalt Christ Jesus because the gift He brings is salvation. Let's come to the cross and celebrate together! The greatest act of love that this world has ever witnessed happened … Continue reading Come to the Cross!
Isaiah 53: The Epitome of Love
Who hath believed our report? And to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? —He is revealed by the Spirit of God to those who hunger for God. 2 For He shall grow up before Him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: He hath no form nor comeliness; … Continue reading Isaiah 53: The Epitome of Love
Gratitude or Love
As Christians, we are supposed to love God, but how many of us actually know why we love God? Sometimes we get confused between the gift and the giver and we tend to value the gifts and the promises more than we value the actual One who gives them to us. So we need to … Continue reading Gratitude or Love
From the Cross to King!
Most Christians know that our sins were nailed to the cross with Jesus on that dark day many years ago. But do they realize the full impact of what actually happened that day? The destiny of mankind was forever changed as Jesus rose from the Cross to be King. When God—Yeshua—created the garden in Eden, He … Continue reading From the Cross to King!
Truth or Comfort Zone
Much of “Christianity” today has digressed from a commitment to follow Christ to an “everything goes” attitude that gives false spiritual security. It’s a “new age religion” that says we can do our own thing and know that God loves and accepts each one of us just as we are now. It’s no wonder that this deception … Continue reading Truth or Comfort Zone
The Object of the Cross
As Christians, we all know that Jesus is the Christ who came to take away the sins of the world. But did you know that salvation is not just a general observation— that it’s really personal? Did you know that YOU are the reason He came—and that YOU were the object of the cross? Jesus came … Continue reading The Object of the Cross
There Are No Shortcuts to the Cross
Our world is quickly racing toward convenience and short cuts in almost every facet of life. The things that used to require time and effort can now be accomplished online in seconds—things such as banking, paying bills, shopping, ordering a meal and even securing lucrative employment. These conveniences require little effort and almost no thought … Continue reading There Are No Shortcuts to the Cross
Jesus is Our Only Hope!
We all have days when everything goes well and we feel happy and free, and then there are other days when it seems as if Murphy’s Law just takes over. We get frustrated and stressed, and we feel that everything we’re going for in life is just not going to happen. We take our eyes … Continue reading Jesus is Our Only Hope!
Being Thankful Just One Day a Year
Like most other Canadians, I joined in with the traditional celebration of Thanksgiving this past weekend and there was so much that I had to be thankful for. I have so many wonderful blessings from God and I’m grateful for every one of them. I have to pinch myself sometimes to realize that I’m alive … Continue reading Being Thankful Just One Day a Year
God is Still in Control
The world today is in great turmoil and there’s a path of doom spreading across every nation as the media persistently blasts news of global adversity. It's plagued with economic failure, political deception, global warming, devastating wars, horrendous crimes, deadly diseases and recurrences of destructive natural disasters. People everywhere are asking if God is still … Continue reading God is Still in Control
Can We Earn God’s Forgiveness?
Many religions will have us believe that we can “earn” God’s forgiveness through works - give financial aid, support those who come to us for help, and pray for those in need. And these good deeds for this purpose should stay with that religion because it is NOT a prerequisite from the Lord for forgiveness, … Continue reading Can We Earn God’s Forgiveness?
Let Faith Arise!
Faith is not a virtue that we are born with or that we just inherit one day. It is something that we have to seek out and work at to keep. When we accept Jesus as our Lord and Saviour we enter God’s world, and the hopes and dreams that it holds are endless. They … Continue reading Let Faith Arise!
Who Will You Choose to be Your Healer?
I have lost many friends to cancer in the last few years, and I know so many more who are currently stricken with this horrendous disease and who are battling it with their very lives. It grieves me beyond words that so many people - so many Christians - will turn to the world of … Continue reading Who Will You Choose to be Your Healer?
What is love?
The Bible is all about love and it tells us that God is the epitome of love. John 3:16 says that He gave His own Son as a sacrifice for us, and although this shows what the essence of love is, it gets lost in the modern world. Even in the Christian realm love has … Continue reading What is love?
Love and Forgiveness
Many Christians think that we only need to forgive the people we love and that it's not necessary to forgive the ones who have offended us that are just acquaintances or people we really don't like anyway. Or we think that because we're King's kids we don't have to lower ourselves to forgive the people of world, after … Continue reading Love and Forgiveness
The Beginning of Love
God is love and everything God does is initiated in love and because of love. He created us because He wanted to have a family and He gave us everything to keep us healthy, happy and content. This is the beginning of the Love of God. God walked in the Garden of Eden with Adam … Continue reading The Beginning of Love
Faith Isn’t Always About “Me”
Often when we're standing in faith and believing God for something, be it healing, finances, a relationship, a job, whatever it is our focus is on us because it's our need. Our every thought is directed to strengthening our own faith and trust in God for the answer, but we need to step outside of our own little … Continue reading Faith Isn’t Always About “Me”
God’s promise
"And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me."...John 12:32 As Good Friday approaches, we are reminded that Christ was lifted up from the earth as He made Himself a sacrifice for our sins. What can be more rewarding than knowing that because we honor what Christ has … Continue reading God’s promise
