Walk As Jesus Walked

Many today make the claim to be a Christian (like-Christ), yet they are trees without good fruit. Jesus warned us of these false believers who make the claim, but it is all talk. “Beware of false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. By their...

The Lord has commissioned His true disciples to go into the whole world to share the good news of the kingdom of heaven. John the Baptist was an ambassador for Jesus proclaiming, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near.” (Matthew 3:2). Then Jesus proclaimed, as an ambassador of heaven...

Surrendering all to follow Jesus, contrary to popular beliefs, is much more than repeating some version of the “sinners pray,” joining and attending some local church, reading the bible, and spending time with others who do the same. Jesus did not tell us to do these things, instead what He did...

This past weekend while pondering shortfalls in my relationship with the heavenly Father I began to realize how many hours of each day I simply live my life WITH Him and fail to live FOR Him as He has called me to do. The gospels clearly illustrate the difference between “living for” and “living...

“But understand this: In the last days terrible times will come. For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, without love of good...

Throughout Jesus’ ministry He taught us a great deal about the kingdom of heaven. Yet, are we really listening or are we simply hearing what He said. Take for instance the parable of the sheep and the goats. On the surface, we know that on the day of final judgement Jesus, the King, will...

Questions: What is the most important day of the week when it comes to serving the kingdom of heaven? Answer: Today! Yesterday is gone and tomorrow is not a given; therefore, today is the only sure day we have to allow the Father to do His will in our lives as we serve His kingdom. Be careful...

It is human nature to ask for something that we need or want. At birth, a baby will cry out when they are hungry or uncomfortable. As we age, we learn to ask for things more directly. Some learn the art of getting what they want while others simply ask for what they need. These patterns often...

As the Spirit moved on me to write this message, I could not help but think about how I hope the Lord keeps it short because many have told me, “These messages are just too long,” “It is too much information for me to scroll through on my phone,” and so on. Yet, I could only smile as I thought...

The Lord spoke plainly about how true Christians must live their lives if they wish to be part of His kingdom. “Then Jesus told His disciples, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever...

Most have prayed or at least heard what is commonly referred to as the “Lord’s Prayer”: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name, Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our...

“You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden” (Matthew 5:14). Each day we who are true Christians make a choice between surrendering our own will to serve the kingdom of heaven or obliviously fulfill the desires of our flesh and those of spirit of this world. However...

Most have heard the expression “beware of false prophets” and yet I wonder if everyone who has heard this warning really understands what it means. Jesus said, “Beware of false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves” (Matthew 7:15). Since the time...

Today's "Christian Religion" would want us all to think the church is a place we go to for fellowship and worship. However, that is not what Jesus taught us about the Church. It is fact that true followers of Christ find fellowship with other true believes all around the world on a daily basis...

Anyone who keeps up with the news today can easily see how the world has ramped up their hatred toward both Christians and Jews. From religious extremists to liberal atheists the attacks on those with Judeo-Christian values have grown in number and in intensity. Death threats have become actual...

“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the way that leads to life, and only a few find it.” (Matthew 7:13-14). The spirit of this world has convinced so many into believing...

"This is the message you have heard from the beginning: We should love one another. Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he slay him? Because his own deeds were evil, while those of his brother were righteous. So do not be surprised, brothers...

Recently, I have been corresponding with a few fellow Christian’s to include here on Christian Forums who have stated that they have had enough of trying to fit in with other’s who claim to be Christians in modern “church” venues and yet do most everything in a way that conforms to this world...

The Gospel of Jesus Christ tells us that the kingdom of heaven is already here: “When asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The kingdom of God will not come with observable signs. Nor will people say, ‘Look, here it is,’ or ‘There it is.’ For you see, the...

I recently received an email from someone who said they were contemplating meaning from Malachi chapter three as it pertains to today’s Christians. I read and reread this chapter repeatedly and the Spirit opened my eyes to a great truth of this passage in scripture pertaining to His people...
