Daniel chapter seven opens with a vision of four beasts, each more terrifying than the one before, but the Ancient of Days eclipses them all. The first beast was like a lion with eagle's wings, but its wings had been plucked off. It was lifted from the ground and made to stand on two feet … Continue reading Four Beasts and the Ancient of Days
I recently had the privilege of joining the Kurt and Kate Morning Show on Moody Radio, Florida, where we delved into two distinct topics regarding the Christian experience. The first discussion centered around the Lord providing us with strength during challenging times. We explored the article "Walking in God's Strength" and shared personal experiences and … Continue reading Exploring the Christian Experience
I recently celebrated my fiftieth birthday. I have had four other birthdays that ended in zero, but this one feels more significant—half a century. So much time has passed, and so much has changed, yet in all of that time and change, some things have remained the same. For fifty years, I have had wonderful … Continue reading Fifty Years of Grace
We look to Christ’s life for our salvation and righteousness, but do we also look to His story to define our own? Or do we think Christ merely gets us into heaven, yet it’s our job to ensure our lives are up to par? While we know only He can save us, we often think … Continue reading 3 Responses to Falling Short
Many people think they have peace with God. Instead, their inner peace flows from a deceptive heart. There is a peace that passes all understanding, and it is one of the most blessed aspects of the Christian life. The foundation of this peace is the cross of Jesus, where our sins find forgiveness, and the … Continue reading 5 Signs Our Inner Peace Might Be a Deceptive Calm
I am having one of those days—one of those days when my mind is cloudy, and I desire to meditate on God’s Word but cannot seem to focus. I need to be productive. I need to write a blog post, but my heart and mind do not seem to have what it takes. I have … Continue reading The Antidote to a Sluggish Soul
I once encountered a professing Christian who boldly declared he had not sinned in over ten years. The Apostle John's words resound: "He has deceived himself, and the truth is not in him." False teachings occasionally surface, suggesting that individuals can rise above the struggle with sin entirely in this life, but the Word of … Continue reading If We Say We Have No Sin
Reflect on the unimaginable weight of God's anger! When we speak of God's anger, it's essential to understand that it's not driven by human-like emotions but rather expressed through His righteous actions against those who provoke His displeasure. Consider God's wrath as it is evident in the world today. The world itself bears the marks … Continue reading Expressions of God’s Anger
There is a key difference between sermons and lectures. If a pastor speaks about a passage from the pulpit on Sunday in the same way a professor speaks, there is a problem. A professor’s primary job is to relay information. Good ones attempt to move the heart, but that is not their primary goal. The … Continue reading Revelation is a Sermon, Not a Lecture
This article will seek to clarify the current Pope’s recent endorsement of blessing to those who are in same-sex marriages. For many protestants, this move is difficult to understand since the Vatican has simultaneously claimed that the “Declaration remains firm on the traditional doctrine of the Church about marriage” (see under “Declaration, Presentation”). How could … Continue reading Pope Francis, LGBTQ, and Semi-Pelagianism
