Being “Christian” does not guarantee your entrance to Heaven. Believing that Jesus is alive and that He is the creator of all things does not make Him your Lord. Confessing that you are a sinner and need His blood to wash you clean does not mean you are one of His redeemed people… On that judgement day it’s clear that He will turn away more people than we seem to think… Continue reading “Who Will God Turn Away?”

Good teaching that has helped me in my search for more of Jesus and in seeking to please Him.
The Nature Of Man.
The natural course of life is to decay. Nature degenerates. One thing is certain above all else in life, we will all die! It is impossible for anything in this life to live forever! From all perspectives, in every example life dies.
A man may start out with a high standard, a goodly goal and wonderful aim but in time, if indeed he can keep these, he himself will pass away and in time the standards he set will fall, his goal will be ditched for an easier one and His wonderful aim will be turned to greed and bad intent. This is evidently a Historical trend of human endeavor. This is natural life leading its own course. We can trust men but in time they will let us down or pass on. We can trust ideologies but in time they will become irrelevant. We can trust in traditions but in time we will find that they are empty and powerless.
I Am His Sheep.
Psalm 23
1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of min
e enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
“The Lord is my shepherd” – I am His sheep. Continue reading “I Am His Sheep.”
What Do People Think Of Christ?
Galations 5
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law
“against such there is is no law” – There is no law against these things. There will be be no law against these things. When Christ was on the earth His message was offensive to an established church, the world(gentiles) on the other hand, flocked to hear him… Continue reading “What Do People Think Of Christ?”
The Way, The Truth, The Life…
John 14
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
“the way” – I am your purpose. I am your ambition. I am your direction, your goal. I am your path. I am your gate, your door. I am your mediator.
“the truth” – I am the source of all your knowledge. I am the giver of wisdom. I am the understanding of life. I am the revealer of mystery. I am the solid foundation. I am the unchanging, unchangeable fact.
“the life” – I am your life source. I am your beginning. I am your end. I am your creator. I am your maintainer. I am your provider. Continue reading “The Way, The Truth, The Life…”
