The silent and unseen killer of the Spirit of Christ

1 Samuel 20:1-2.

The Evangelism Crew, where are they Now?

Romans 16:21-27 I think it would be great to be able to surround myself with people whose purpose is to bring others to Jesus Christ. It would feel like the Church I was brought up in through the 60's and early 70's. Church was all about "grounding" people in the Bible, to be familiar with …

Alone in a World of Obstacles

Romans 16:17-20 If I was looking for an answer to why I am alone in life, this explains it, "I urge you, brothers and sisters, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them." Romans 16:17 The world …

I’m Particular Who I Say Hi To

Romans 16:1-16 I read this part of Romans years ago and I thought about the "woke" speakers accepting an award at the Oscars. They go on and on thanking this person, thanking that person, etc. Very boring. But I kept reading these verses throughout the years and now it is very meaningful to me. The …

The Desire to Help in a Struggling Society

Romans 15:30-33 Trying to help others through their struggles is always a choice between living by the Spirit of Jesus Christ and doing contrary to the internal government of the mark of the beast. That's because the society of those who live by the mark of the beast do not want help given to those …

A Salvation Desert. Help the Faithful Few

Romans 15:23-29 The internal government dominates thoughts and feelings, and nobody is really interested in the Bible anymore. Unless it's the older generation of the Baby Boomers, like me. Even then, there will always be those with the testimony of Jesus Christ until He returns. Meanwhile, the younger generation are brought up to live by …

When the Church was Saving Souls

Romans 15:14-22 I grew up in a Church that was all about bringing people to God through Jesus Christ. The Church attendance in the 11:00am meeting was about fifty people on a real good Sunday. Anyone who had a decent understanding of the Bible, and were able, were put into the ministry to save souls. …

Fidelity to the Body of Christ

Romans 15:7-13 When I consider how Jesus Christ accepted me, it makes me wonder how I could ever be like Him. Today in this year 2022, I suffer affliction for choosing Jesus Christ over the mark of the beast, but as the days progress where will I be? Will I be able to embrace other …

Enduring Insults when Helping Others

Romans 15:1-6 The community where I live don't give a hoot about helping people become a better human being. The only thing they care about is conforming people to the internal government. They are flat out hostile to human sentimentality and especially if that humanness is absorbed into the Spirit of Jesus Christ. It's only …

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall

Romans 13:8-10 I could sit in front of a mirror and repeat everything that I've said to another person. The time when I said, "You're an idiot," doesn't sound very good when I see myself saying it to myself. The time when I said, "Jesus loves you," sounds acceptable when I see myself saying it …
