Ministries that are truly God-ordained
will not need to beg and plead for
money. They will not need to entice
people to give or use worldly
methods to raise funds. Instead, those
ministries know that as they walk by
faith, God will provide for the vision
which He initiated.
When Jesus...
In Ezekiel 28:12-18 you will find God
describing him: “Thus says the Lord
GOD, You had the seal of perfection,
Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
You were in Eden, the garden of God;
Every precious stone was your
covering: The ruby, the topaz, and the
diamond; The beryl, the onyx, and...
Tithing is worship. It has always
been more than just a tax. Tithing is
recognition and worship of the One
Who created and actually owns all.
Worshiping God in a prescribed
manner has existed since the
Garden of Eden. Cain and Abel knew
the correct way to worship God, but
one of them...
One argument raised by homosexuals
concerning this verse is to focus on
what is "suitable" for someone.
Where a woman is a suitable
"partner" for most men, that is not
the case for "gay" men. For them,
another man would be a suitable
"partner."
The problem with this argument is
that it...
Giving involves your time, your
treasure, and your talents. The Apostle
Paul linked generous giving with
spiritual benefits: the more one gives,
the more one benefits (II Corinthians
9:6-11). We, as believers, are constant
recipients of God's generous grace.
He promises that if we...
This is expressed in one word,
"Revelation." A Revelation is
something revealed or made known,
not something hidden and concealed.
Moses tells that "the secret things
belong unto the Lord our God: but
those things which are revealed
belong unto us and to our children
forever."...
If a biological basis is found, and
if a prenatal test is then
developed, and if a successful
treatment to reverse the sexual
orientation to heterosexual is ever
developed, we would support its use
as we should unapologetically
support the use of any appropriate
means to avoid sexual...
Our society is filled with
runaways, dropouts, and quitters.
The epidemic of walking away has hit
our land with effects as devastating as
the bubonic plague, and it has
destroyed millions of effective lives
and relationships. We are so self-
centred that we have ceased to lay
down our...
If I can remember ,one day unexpected dog appeared to our compound from nowhere .The dog seemed friendly and in need of benevolent caretaker.
Well, at first ,I had no worries for I thought it was from neighbours'vicinities and she'll eventually go back to her home .
But this did not happen...
If you belong to the Kingdom of God,
you are a prime target for the attacks
of the world , your own flesh , and the
devil . True, these foes have been
defeated by our Lord Jesus Christ, but
until the Lord's return, Christians will
continue to face rage and violent
warfare from these...
An evil spirit (or demon) is not the
same as a fallen angel; it is actually
the offspring of a fallen angel. When
fallen angels took to themselves
human wives (Genesis 6:1-2), the
children born to them became mighty
giants, corrupting the human race
and accelerating wickedness to such a...

When God baptizes you into Christ,
you become a new creation in your
spirit , not in your body (flesh). Your
body remains corruptible until the
Resurrection (see John 6:39-40), but
something inside changes. Your heart
is washed clean by the blood of Jesus,
and your spirit is quickened...
Within the Body of Christ, we often
focus a lot on receiving. While we
certainly do receive abundantly from
God, far too often we are more
interested in what God can do for us
physically rather than spiritually. This
ought not to be. We should be more
concerned with that which is eternal...
Religion, we’re told, should primarily
be concerned with protecting the
vulnerable and helping us stay pure in
a sinful world. I’ll be the first to admit
that if unprodded I rarely practice the
first two (well, all three if I’m being
honest). I’d much rather leave the
messy business of...
If children live with criticism,
They learn to condemn.
If children live with hostility,
They learn to fight.
If children live with ridicule,
They learn to be shy.
If children live with shame,
They learn to feel guilty.
If children live with encouragement,
They learn confidence.
If...
If you tune into enough Christian
television nowadays, you might be
prone to think that we can buy our
way to health, wealth, happiness, and
success. Listening to the many TV
preachers, it would appear that Jesus
is the key to being set free from all
that is difficult and hard about...
At this very moment there is a vast
supernatural reality all around you.
Although you cannot see it, this other
realm encompasses angelic beings
and spiritual powers. Does the Bible
have anything to say about this other
reality and how it involves us? Yes, it
does!
Who are these...
Vows are voluntary expressions of
devotion usually fulfilled after some
condition had been met. Vows in the
Old Testament usually were
confidential. A common formula for
vows was the "if..then.." phrase.
The one making the religious vow
proposed that if God did something
(such as give...
The state has a certain stake in
individuals' consciences: this is part
of the point of legislation, which
should be both a reflection and a
guide for public conscience. So then,
for example, to the extent that the
state approves gay “marriage,” it is
telling its people that men and...
