    A Great Fall!

    When I was a child, a long, long time ago, here in the United States of America, someone read to me, or I read what were called “Nursery Rhymes.” Honestly, I don’t know why these stories (rhymes) were read to young children, for most all of them were about something bad that happened to...

    Spotlight on Heresy

    Imagine a forum where those who are washed in the Blood of the Lamb, and who have God's Righteousness imputed to them, could celebrate together the Joy of Salvation, the Joy of the Lord, and find deep teaching for their spirit and rest for their soul. Imagine a forum where Grace rules in the...

    Your WORKS won't do it.

    There are NO verses in the Bible, both Testaments included... that say Jesus, once in you, will leave you if you are a bad Christian, etc. He is sealed in there, along with the Holy Spirit, unless the bible is lying. Jesus does promise you Eternal Life, and this promise has NO CONDITIONS, once...

    Stable and Steadfast

    And you, who once were alienated and hostile in mind, doing evil deeds, he has now reconciled in his body of flesh by his death, in order to present you holy and blameless and above reproach before him, if indeed you continue in the faith, stable and steadfast, not shifting from the hope of the...

    God's Plans for Us

    Within the church today, at least here in America, we have people who are preaching “feel good” messages to the people, telling them that they can “believe” in Jesus, that nothing is required of them, and that heaven is guaranteed them when they die, and that nothing bad will happen to them, and...

    Hope That Heals

    Life has its ups and downs. Some things are minor, and some things are major. But, even the minor things sometimes can be upsetting. And, this is especially true if there are a lot of them in rapid succession, one after another after another. Sometimes when they come like this we don’t even have...

    What We Hope For Keeps Us Going

    Hope Is A Critical Factor in Life Several years ago, I went through suicide intervention training. We learned how to identify people who were suicidal and get them the help they needed. We learned that one reason people reach this point of thinking about taking their own life is they have no...

    Finding The Strength To Go On video, Fr. Anthony Messeh

    Over the years, actually decades I've used and collected various Christian resources that have helped me with my various troubles and issues. This one sermon I've recommenced a number of times to people going through tough times and it is preached from a "rising star" (so to speak) of the...

    In This Hope

    Romans 8:24-25 ESV For in this hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience. God’s plan of salvation for us is that we should die with Christ to sin and live with him to righteousness...

    Serving The Kingdom

    As servants of the kingdom of heaven we are called to surrender our lives in this world to include wealth, fame, etc. to serve the will of the Father. There are far too many who make the claim to know Christ and yet in the end He (Christ) will tell, "Depart from Me, I never knew you!"

    Keep Hoping and Praying

    Psalm 42:1-4 ESV As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God? My tears have been my food day and night, while they say to me all the day long, “Where is your God?”...

    God Is Sovereign..

    I am a firm believer in the sovereignty of God in the salvation of the sinner. This for two reasons. First, there are many Biblical evidences for it (Deuteronomy 7:6-8; John 1:12-13; John 6:37-45; Romans 8-9, etc.). Second, it alone is, and can be, anyone’s certain hope of eternal life. The word...

    Numbering Our Days

    Psalm 90:1-2 ESV Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. For those of us who have trusted in Jesus Christ to be Lord and Savior...
