“Amazing Grace”
Grace is always amazing, but the deeper the spiritual abyss from which one is rescued, the more appreciation he or she is likely to feel. After the death of his spiritually minded mother, when he was just seven years old, John Newton never seemed to recover. He ended up living a life so engulfed by […]
Jesus and the Law
Jesus never disrespected the Law, but rather, He honored it. He knew the law was divine because He was Himself divine. In Matthew 5, Jesus reminds us that He did not come to destroy the law. Matthew 5:17 (NKJV) 17 “Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did […]
Our Inheritance
God gives us life, both now in Christ and eternally in heaven. This being the case, we do not owe anything to the flesh. Romans 8:12–13 (ESV) 12 So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. 13 For if you live according to the flesh you will […]
Unity in Diversity
The desire of every child of God should be religious unity. “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity” (Psalms 133:1).

Contending for the Faith (The Lord’s Day)
In the realm of denominational, man-made religion, no doctrinal truth or biblical practice is untouchable. When ordinary men and women are given the authority to establish what is preached and practiced by God’s people (or those viewed as God’s people), instead of men guided by the Holy Spirit, namely the apostles of Christ, anything goes. […]
Contending for the Faith (Once Delivered)
One of the biggest attacks upon “the faith” for which we must contend is that it is incomplete. While I have never heard someone directly say that “the faith” is incomplete, that is what is being taught by anyone who claims they are receiving new revelations from God. There are far too many modern-day preachers […]
