    The Cost of True Discipleship—Count the Cost

    Being Jesus’ disciple requires total commitment (Luke 14:25-33; Luke 9:57-62). This involves prioritising Him above family, our possessions, and even our own life, using the strong word “hate” (Luke 14:26) to show how great the difference must be between our allegiance to Jesus and our...

    Has God made clean the unclean?

    Tony, the wisdom of the world is foolishness before God.

    Has God made clean the unclean?

    Let's not take this out of context, Tony, by applying it to clean and unclean meats. The meaning of Peter's vision is that God had now opened the door of salvation to the gentiles. Isaiah 66:15-24 describes Christ’s return and in verse 17 the LORD declares that those “eating pig’s flesh and the...

    A call to repentance—God is patient, but His patience does not abide forever.

    This parable is an illustration of God’s patience toward the unrepentant, but also a warning that God’s patience does not abide forever. A day of judgement is coming. We must “bear fruit in keeping with repentance” (Matthew 3:8). God has fixed a day on which He will judge the world in...

    “I can deliberately sin because we are under grace” - a prevalent new-age doctrine.

    Today, a very prevalent doctrine that I have seen spreading throughout churches and in online forums is: “Since we are under grace, we are no longer required to come to genuine repentance of our sins, nor are we required to keep the commandments of God”. I would like to stress that this is a...

    “We are all fundamentally good ... the heart itself is good,” says Pope Francis

    And as he was setting out on his journey, a man ran up and knelt before him and asked him, "Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?" And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone. (Mark 10:17-18 ESV) I'll add that Jesus isn't directly commenting...

    Beware of false prophets, teachers, and brethren

    We do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the present darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. The devil, who is called Satan, and all his angels, which are also referred to as demons, have been cast...

    The Ten Commandments are all reiterated in the New Testament

    Catechism of the Catholic Church – II. The Lord’s Day: “We all gather on the day of the sun, …” Then he said to me, "Have you seen this, O son of man? You will see still greater abominations than these." And he brought me into the inner court of the house of the LORD. And behold, at the...

    The Ten Commandments are all reiterated in the New Testament

    I thought the Sabbath was on Sunday? The key to this one can be found in the very name… [Sun]day. From the beginning to the end of the Bible there is not a single passage that warrants the transfer of the Sabbath from the seventh day of the week to the first. True Christians have always...

    The Ten Commandments are all reiterated in the New Testament

    The seventh day Sabbath is God’s gift to humanity. It was blessed and sanctified by God after He had created the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them. It was written into the Ten Commandments by His finger, was kept, and taught by Jesus Christ, and was observed by the apostolic...

    The Ten Commandments are all reiterated in the New Testament

    The Ten Commandments were known and obeyed by God’s faithful people, presumably even before the Law was given at Sinai. Later incorporated into the new covenant, they constitute the basic moral code for humanity (as further explained by Jesus) and are obeyed to demonstrate the believer’s love...

    A call for endurance: The Christian life is a marathon, not a sprint.

    “Here is a call for the endurance of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God and their faith in Jesus.” (Revelation 14:12 ESV) Remember, brothers and sisters, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will face persecution. It will be a hard struggle, and we will face many...

    “We are all fundamentally good ... the heart itself is good,” says Pope Francis

    “We are all fundamentally good. Yes, there are some rogues and sinners, but the heart itself is good,” says Pope Francis. But what does God’s word say? “… None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands; no one seeks for God. All have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no...

    The Sabbath – the fourth of the Ten Commandments

    Amen. Lately i've been working to try to keep my thoughts, words and actions on the things of God during the entirety of each Sabbath, in line with this passage. Also eliminating idle talk, as my wife and I so commonly partake in. It is a challenge to say the least! I hope that as the...

    The way, the truth, and the life – Jesus Christ

    There is only one God, one saviour, one mediator, one faith, one Lord, one true religion, one holy book, one gospel and one way of salvation that leads to eternal life. Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Him. There is salvation in no one...

    Are you ready for the return of Jesus Christ? Have you been cleansed by His blood?

    Amen. Yes, we must be diligent to be found by Him without spot or blemish, and at peace. Counting the patience of our Lord as salvation. Otherwise, woe to us on that day.
