The Only Way to Achieve Perfection in God’s Sight
Omigosh! I can’t believe some of the behavior I have made God and Christ watch during the past 50+ years since I got serious about being a Christian. You can thank God you didn’t have to watch it. Anyway, I know you’ve been busy putting on your own show for Him. Yes, the good I’ve done far outweighs the bad, …
Is God Ever “Out of Luck”?
The prevailing fallacy in Christianity today is that God is in control, He can do whatever He wants whenever He wants to, and that nothing happens that is not somehow within the purview of His “sovereign” will. The truth is that God almost always needs human cooperation in order to bring to pass His will on the earth. His Word …
The Politics of Christianity
In our most recent USA presidential election, many “conservative,” “evangelical,” “Bible believing” Christians voted for Donald Trump, some enthusiastically, and some because they saw him only as the lesser of two evils. Since his inauguration, he has been at the center of a maelstrom of controversy, some would say due to malevolent forces bent on taking him out of his …
Have You Ever Gotten Stoned?
No, we are not taking a drug-use survey. The Book of Acts is an ACTion and Adventure thriller.

Join us for …
How Do You Know You Love Chocolate?
Because you decided to TRY IT! Likewise, how can you know whether or not you love The One True God, the Creator of the universe, unless you choose to come to His Word and see for yourself how much HE LOVES YOU and what He desires to do for you? Psalm 34:8 encourages us to, “Taste and see that the …
Get Naked Before The Lord
In the Church Epistles, the ”Lord” always refers to Jesus. What the Lord Jesus desires is that you be his friend, to the degree that he can teach you how to be like him. Intimacy with Jesus Christ is the key to a successful spiritual life. To achieve that kind of sweet relationship, we must choose to look to his …
Is My Christianity Contagious?
Back in the 1990s I amassed a collection of NO FEAR brand T-shirts. Here are some of the sayings on them: You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take. Life is a contact sport. You’ll never steal second with your foot on first. If you’re not living on the edge, you’re taking up too much space. Nothing is more …
The Greatest Cause of Both Unity and Division
Happy New Year! Fasten your seat belt, here comes 2017! Actually, your seat belt has already been fastened—permanently—by the Lord Jesus Christ, who has seated you in the heavenlies, figuratively speaking, and sealed you in his salvation, thus guaranteeing you safe travel from here to eternity. Meanwhile, we still have a calendar, and it seems that this particular new year …
