What the devil doesn't want You to know.

So just what is a christian? Is a Christian someone who goes to church, carries their bibles with them, and at one point made a decision for Christ through baptism or some sort of other profession of faith? I have been asked the question before have you ever really seen a christian? And the answer to that question is no I can never be sure but God sees each and every heart, and He knows who are truly His and who are not. I think at this point I might be safe saying there will be many surprises in Heaven. What makes someone a christian?

I poured over the chapter in Romans chapter 10, highlighted and underlined and had myself a little bible study with the Lord last night because I wanted as Paul said, "to make my calling and election sure" and another place "that I myself might not be disqualified." My salvation is not dependent on how I feel today, how I might feel tomorrow or how I even feel right now. My salvation was a work of God, and one day I will be resurrected and glorified with Him in Heaven forever.

I do not know this because someone told me I was saved, I do not know this because I feel I'm saved, I know this because I have the Holy Spirit residing in me and he has affirmed to my heart, that I have truly repented of my sins and have made the good confession that the bible teaches we must do in order to be regenerated or born again. What the devil doe not want you to know is that you can be 100% sure that you have been twice born on your way to Heaven and there isn't a demon in hell who can take that assurance and salvation from you. If you are a christian, and God has told you you are a christian, you need to take rest in the fact that even though Satan will try his best to convince you you are worth nothing to God, God loves you and has a great future in store for you now, and for eternity.

On Christian Marriage. (Short)

On Christian Marriage. (Short) The modern co-habitation crisis has produced a lot of single moms and dads, and has fractured "family units" allowing other family members and relatives to take a bigger role in these "Separated families." There isn't a "one cause" why families have separated or divorced, it is a complicated issue, sometimes resulting in very hard emotions for Society to process. Things like the "millennial sexual revolution" have contributed to the widespread "non-committal" attitude, which in turn has given the traditional marriage the "black eye" it currently has and has turned many Christian men away from seeking a life partner. The more society devalues "traditional marriage" the more co-habitation you will see in all the other generations as well as the Millennials. This is Mike.

The Parable of the Ten Virgins.

Matthew 25:1-13 I have discovered a remarkable interpretation of this parable that I would like to share with you. The story in the Bible goes like this: “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Five of them were foolish and five were wise. 3 The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. 4 The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. 5 The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep. 6 “At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’ 7 “Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. 8 The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’ 9 “‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy som...

The Existence of God

Since the beginning of time, man has learned about the existence of God. It began in the Garden of Eden where Adam and Eve walked and talked with God, however when they sinned, they died spiritually and their closeness with God was severed. In Genesis 4:26 it reads “Seth also had a son, and he named him Enosh. At that time people began to call on the name of the LORD.” Seth was the third son of Adam and Eve, so it’s fair to say that not too long after mankind fell, we also called upon the Lord. From that time until now, mankind was closer to God then, but it’s a modern shift that the world is in the state it is in now, mainly unbelief, because even 30 years ago from now, mankind was closer to God. It is also true that in ancient Israel’s history, there have been generations that fell away and forgot God, but in the time of the prophets Israel was never left without a word from the Lord. Many generations have come and gone, but there have been remarkable generations all thr...
