Today is our Judgment; Today We Meet God

Today is our Judgment; Today We Meet God Our mindset as humans is constrained within time.  We are dependent upon consecutive moments in time that lead us to our aspirations, out of trials, through afflictions, etc.  When we pray to God, we often imagine Him as living within our world of time, and thereby, being [...]

The Trinity Since Creation

The Trinity Since Creation Too many Christians attempt to evolve Christian theology as science evolves.  For example, the theories of Pangaea and evolution tell a story of an Earth that is millions of years old.  Non-coincidentally, a cult within Christianity arises that accepts what scientific theory tells them and maintains their Christian views by adding [...]

God’s Will – The “Open Door” Theory

Open Doors Let’s face it, in this day and age, Christians, all sorts of them, are concerned with what the will of God is for their life.  I heard it said many times that the number one question people ask there pastor is “What is the will of God in my life.”  Many teachings, sermons [...]

Grace and Mercy

Churchianity vs. Christianity

Churchianity vs. Christianity I’ve been to some churches over the past few years – mostly due to relocating or visiting a friend’s church.  I’ve been to Presbyterian, Baptist, Pentecostal, and non-denominational churches.  Recently, a friend of mine was talking to me about her experience as a worship leader for quite some time at a non-denominational [...]

Spiritual Warfare In Our Relationships With Others

Spiritual Warfare In Our Relationships With Others “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rules, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.” Ephesians 6:12 Let’s face it, in this particular verse Paul isn’t saying that we enter [...]

The Seven Things God Hates

The Seven Things God Hates “There are six things the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies and a man who stirs up [...]
