The problem behind all problems in Christianity
So many sincere Christians are in religious spiritual bondage while they suppose they more ardently champion the name of Christ. They are spiritually sick while they wonder why more people do not want the remedy they suppose they offer – that remedy being their rendition of the Christian faith. Although out of one side of their mouth, they may claim to more accurately follow Christ, and possess the solution the world desperately needs, in moments of honesty, some Christians of conscience and insight will note discrepancies between what the Bible calls for and what is. Signs of things not right include disunity, lack of love equal to the Lord’s love,…

It is a major mistake to distrust the Apostle Paul
Nearly 2000 years after the apostle Paul wrote his many epistles, there are those today who have been calling doubt on whether he was someone who we should listen to so much. Their reasoning may be a variation of the argument that Jesus was the sinless Master, Paul a mere fallible student. Paul was not even one of the original 12 who knew Jesus prior to the Cross. Critics suggest Paul, being fallible, passed along tainted views. To be pure, they say, it is best just to focus on the words of Jesus.

Most Christians are dominated by their religious ‘fleshly minds’
A religious fleshly mind produces the perfect clone of a fruitful and authentic Christian life and most Christians have no idea how much they are affected by it. Religious flesh is the root common denominator responsible for sinfulness and division, and, really, all that is and has ever been wrongly approved of by those who name the name of Christ.

The religious flesh is why many who took the…

6 Ways the Church disastrously disobeyed Jesus Christ – and the unintended consequences
Just as the Old Testament Jews disobeyed God, so also did the Christians of the New Covenant disobey commands, and vitally critical aspects of the faith He expected and needed them to keep. This message discusses six major non-negotiable dealbreakers that shaped what is known as the public face of “the church” since the death of the last apostle John, circa 100 AD, until now. What is said is easily verifiable and absolutely true, and in keeping with the scriptures. The effects of what this will outline are deeper, broader, and wider than many imagine. No one, not even you, is unaffected, and you likely are more so than you…

Christians are to be the citizens of heaven on earth
Christians may be residents of any nation of this world, but their first allegiance and identity is they are the eternal citizens of heaven on earth. This is the express will of God, as written all over the place in the New Testament. It is the entire thrust of what God and the first apostles wanted to see accomplished. Jesus Christ gave His life in the hope that those who truly love Him would recognize it, go through a series of healthy godly responses, and choose to give their lives in return. Here is an overview of some of these points. More could be said. May the Lord bless you.
