     Most Christians are not aware of how serious it is to add to what Jesus Christ has finished!  It is the difference between whether or not a person is saved.  It is the difference between heaven and hell.     The salvation that God has provided through Jesus Christ is by grace.  “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and […]

     The Bible presents Jesus Christ as having three offices of Prophet, Priest, and King.  Many times we don't focus in on the person of the Lord Jesus Christ as He serves as Prophet, Priest, and King.  The prophet is God's representative with the people.  The priest is the people's representative with God.  The king is God's ruler over the

     Every Christian has a ministry given to him by the Lord.  In fact, every Christian has the same ministry given to him by the Lord.  This does not mean that every Christian will have the same occupation or that he will not have different areas that he may serve.  II Corinthians 5:18 tells us that God, “hath given

     The center of Christianity is not the birthday of the Lord Jesus Christ.  The center of Christian worship is the death, burial, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ.  The Lord left us two ordinances to observe.  They are Baptism and the Lord's Supper.  Both remind us of the death, burial, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ.     In Baptism,

     The simple gospel message is being corrupted every day by the use of terms or phrases that Christians use to invite the lost to be saved. These terms demand or imply that human works or human effort is a part of the plan of salvation! Biblical salvation is wholly of the Lord and is “Not

     Have you given much thought to your tongue?  Do you look often at your tongue in the mirror?  Do you go on shopping trips for your tongue in the mall?  Do you diet to get your tongue back in shape?     Is your tongue beautiful?  Or is it ugly?  Of course, we are not talking about its physical beauty.  Although the tongue is

     Today in Christianity a Madison Avenue approach is being used by many to market Jesus Christ to the unsaved world.  Their favorite approach is to say that what you need is “a relationship with Jesus Christ.”  The philosophy is that we are now dealing with the 'baby-boomers.'  The 'baby-boomers' have experienced broken relationships during their lives.  So, they say,

THE BIBLE:     The Bible in its original documents is the inspired Word of God, the written record of His supernatural revelation of Himself to man, absolute in its authority, complete in its revelation, final in its content, and without any errors in its statements.  (II Timothy 3:16; John 10:35; Psalms 89:34; Hebrews 6:18; II Peter 3:16)GOD:    

     Jesus is God who took on human flesh. He is the eternal Son of God, the second Person of the Godhead. Without Jesus Christ NO PERSON can enter heaven. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: NO MAN cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6” The name

1. The earth is round  (Isaiah 40:22)2. The earth is hung upon nothing  (Job 26:7)3. The empty place in the North  (Job 26:7)4. The waters (oceans) are round  (Proverbs 8:275. Einstein's theory E=MC squared  (Jeremiah 10:12)6. The life of the flesh is in the blood  (Leviticus 17:11)7. The heavens are black  (Isaiah 50:3)8. The stars in the universe can not be numbered  (Jeremiah

     Can a person who has been saved lose his salvation?  This question has been a perplexing question to many.  Maybe you have been questioning the genuineness of your salvation.  Are you really saved?  Are you really sure?     Although the phrase “eternal security” does not occur in the Bible, phrases that are equivalent do occur.  Phrases such as everlasting life,

     Blood is associated with both the first and second comings of Jesus Christ.  When Jesus Christ came the first time, John the Baptist said to Him, “Behold the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world (John 1:29).”  As the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ laid down His life for us on the cross

     In the final book of the Bible, in the final chapter, in the final verses, we have the final words of Jesus Christ.  These words are an invitation to every member of the human race to receive His forgiveness and the gift of eternal life.  “And the Spirit and the bride say, Come.  And let him that

     Is there blood on your hands?  Ezekiel tells us, “Son of Man, Speak unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me. When I say unto the wicked (the unbelievers), Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked (the

     Perhaps there is no verse in the New Testament so misinterpreted and misunderstood as Acts 2:38.  Those who would add works to salvation that is by faith alone seem to use Acts 2:38 as their proof text, especially those who teach water baptism is necessary for salvation.  They try to use Acts 2:38 to support their view.     What

SalvationThe sole condition for receiving eternal salvation from hell is faith (trust) in the Lord Jesus Christ, who died a substitutionary death on the cross for man’s sin and rose from the dead.  (John 3:16-28; John 6:47; Acts 16:31)No act of obedience, preceding or following faith in the Lord Jesus Christ may be added to, or

None of the four gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, mention the date, or the day, or the month, or the year in which Jesus was born. But we are told exactly when Jesus was crucified. He was crucified on the preparation [day before] day of the Passover. The Passover always occurred on the 14th

     Each of us who have trusted Jesus Christ as our personal Saviour have been appointed as His ambassador.  God has given every believer this wonderful privilege and opportunity to proclaim the gospel of the grace of God.  We are told in II Corinthians 5:20, “Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you

1. An accursed message is a perversion of the gospel of Christ.  Galatians 1:7.2. An accursed message is a perversion of the gospel of Christ, and therefore the teller of this message is telling a lie.  Proverbs 30:4-6.3. An accursed message is a perversion of the gospel of Christ and is a subtle way of calling God

Angels are mentioned one hundred and sixteen times in the Old Testament.  The Bible without a doubt teaches that there are angelic beings.Angels are created beings.  Psalm 148:2,5 speaks of their creation.  “Praise ye him, all his angels; praise ye him, all his hosts.  Let them praise the name of the Lord: for he commanded, and they were created.”The

     God has forewarned us of a time when the man of sin, a super human dictator known as the Beast, will be given power over all kindred, tongues and nations.  All that dwell upon the earth shall worship him (except the saints), and he will cause all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and
