The Day That Will Solve Everything
Many people believe Revelation 11:15 – 16 describes the moment of the return of Christ… Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign forever and ever.” And the twenty-four… Continue reading

The Word of God: Sweet and Bitter
So I went to the angel and told him to give me the little scroll. And he said to me, “Take and eat it; it will make your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be sweet as honey.” And I took the little scroll from the hand of the angel and ate it.… Continue reading

The Difference Between the Saved and Unsaved
I know a man who has recently been released from prison. Understandably, his life is in a sad state of affairs. However, he does have something going for him – he is being ministered to by a number of Christians.

The Smell That God Loves
Perhaps you’ve heard before that if you want to sell your house, when someone is coming for a showing, you should have fresh bread baking in the oven. If the scent of delightfulness is strong enough, people will pay full price without a counter offer. Well, okay, I doubt that is really true, but I’ll bet that… Continue reading

I’m a big fan of weddings, for a number of different reasons, but one stands out: like everyone else, I love it when the bride comes down the aisle toward her adoring groom in a beautiful gown of white.

For instance… They cried out… Continue reading

The Ultimate Reason We Must Weep
There is much weeping going on in our nation and in the world lately. There is pain all around. John the beloved Apostle wept too, but he wept for a reason that others don’t often consider… And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the scroll and… Continue reading

Why Does God Ask Us To Praise Him?
The twenty-four elders fall down before him who is seated on the throne and worship him who lives forever and ever. They cast their crowns before the throne, saying, “Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they existed and… Continue reading

How To Become A Lukewarm Christian
“I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were either cold or hot! So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth.” Revelation 3:15-16 (ESV) Steamy water cools off. Icy water warms up. Likewise, it is the natural tendency of men… Continue reading

What Did Jesus Say About Sexual Sin?
There seems to be a line of thought in the church that says sex outside of marriage is a small thing, just a peccadillo. It’s almost as if people think, “Yeah, it’s wrong, but God’s not that concerned about it – He’s got bigger fish to fry.” I’m not sure where this idea comes from. Perhaps people think that this… Continue reading
