Heaven (An In-Depth Study)

Webmaster’s Note: A deeper understanding of both God and the Living Word comes not only from accurate Bible study materials and proper instruction, but also from you. When you take your time, meditate upon key points, and look up given verses for yourself, in your very own Bible, your walk with the Lord takes on a whole new meaning. We…

Legalizing Grace is “Illegal”

If you do not believe in Eternal Security, you are legalizing the Grace of God and that… is “illegal.” Just as you cannot work for salvation, you cannot work to keep yourself saved (Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans Chapter 8; Romans 11:5-6,33,36). God saved us through Christ and God keeps us saved through the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:35-39). Notice I said God…

Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord (Part Sixty-Seven)

READ, LINGER, PROCESS…   My emotional need for poetry, epic and tragedy, fill me with hypnotic charm and dazzling life that may somehow have existed in a world closer to whom we really are… there we believe. Tales of enchantment offer escape without drugs. Perhaps if and when people learn to take the time to appreciate folklore in every culture,…

Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord (Part Sixty-Six)

READ, LINGER, PROCESS…   There is no such thing as a complete failure because failure is never complete. We are all complete sinners, completely helpless and completely hopeless. In Christ we are completely justified, completely forgiven, completely righteous and I am eternally grateful. It is interesting that fire somehow consumes itself and must find new victims or die. If sin…

Words of Stone

WORDS OF STONE Where do we find happiness or peace of mind? Is the answer in alcohol and wine? Is it just out of reach ? Is it at the beach? Where do we find happiness or peace of mind? Is the answer in fortune we all seek to find ? Is it with some little honey? Is it really…

Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord (Part Sixty-Four)

READ, LINGER, PROCESS…   God, who created life in us, can certainly be trusted with the details of our lives. We just don’t realize the omnipotence of God – God is so far beyond us. Christ made God personable and knowable while still remaining incomprehensible. God is love, justice, and mercy – God is grace-oriented because Christ was cross-oriented. Thank…

When Satan Applauds

When Satan Applauds By C. S. Craig Written To My Children March 29, 2001 – Revised June 12, 2001 (yet applicable to all). I guess I never really thought about or fully understood the implications of the phrase “we live in the devil’s world.” There are two worlds (realities): God’s world in Heaven – His dwelling place (1 Kings 8:30;…

Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord (Part Sixty-One)

READ, LINGER, PROCESS…   I find fascinating the words which contain essence, as in the essence of God, or man, or a thing. There is also the quintessence – the fifth essence. But the quintessence I find most fascinating – the hundredth essence. Satan is a sinister codologist of the super-kind – “chief of hoaxers.” Webmaster’s Note: (Codologist: Noun. Irish…

Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord (Part Fifty-Eight)

READ, LINGER, PROCESS…   The power of the Holy Spirit, by and through the cross, breaks the chains of sin and death. Every noble ideal is empty apart from Christ. When the still small voice of God becomes a thundering judgment, then intellectuals will realize their own stupidity and arrogance, but it will be too late. The edge of knowledge…

Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord (Part Fifty-Seven)

READ, LINGER, PROCESS…   If the universe “came from nothing,” then why couldn’t it have come from God? Which theory requires more faith? Which is more probable? (P.S. Stephen Hawking (evolution’s own ‘god’) once said, “The universe willed itself into existence.” Do with that one what you will, dear reader.) Even if we ask, “Who made God?” or “Where did…

Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord (Part Fifty-Five)

READ, LINGER, PROCESS…   Every human begins life in bondage. By faith in Christ, we rise in courage into the liberty of Bible doctrine, where we find peace, joy, love, and true, lasting inner happiness. Interesting how we attempt to live each day’s comfort with the counterfeits of illusion. The corpse, thought dead, continues its advance in corruption. The day…

Relativism

Relativism: “Truth for you, not for me. My truth is what matters.” This mindset leads to, “It’s true for me, so I will make it true for you,” and “You will participate in my truth.” Truth is not relative, it is an absolute. The plan of satan is whitewashing God’s Word. Merchandising the gospel is whitewashing grace. Activism by believers…
