"Closed until Further Notice." A Heavenly Tale.

"Closed until Further Notice." A Heavenly Tale.

A godly man died and appeared at the Pearly Gates. When he got there, there was a sign that said "Closed until further notice." He walked up to the Gates and noticed they were pad locked, so he looked around and noticed a rough bench nearby, that was empty. He sat down and fervently prayed that Saint Peter would appear to him to remove his confusion. Just then the Gates opened and the man could see a little bit inside. He saw empty halos scattered near by the entrance, but no one was inside! Then the godly man heard a loud sound as of a Trumpet, and immediately saw another sign on the Gates, which read "We are temporarily re-located on the earth, check the Book in front of you and see if your name is in it." The godly man checked and his name was there and immediately, an Angel appeared in front of him and said "Let's get you to where the others are." The godly man was immediately in a glorified human body, riding a white horse as he was on the earth in the middle of a war.

Many may not realize it, but the bible teaches that Jesus is coming back to this earth again one day! There will be a real war fought from the heavens between the evil forces of this earth, and the good forces of saints and holy Angels found in Heaven, and on earth. Jesus promised His family that He would return one day for them. When this happens there will be a supper in Heaven for 7 years. When this finishes God will return to this earth to stop the forces of evil from destroying his planet. Jesus also taught that many people would be caught of guard when this happens. Will you be like the godly man, who found his name in the Book of Life and returned to earth to fight, or will you be caught off guard when Jesus comes again? Just somethings to think about!

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.

Why Christians must show Mutual Concern for One another.

  Look and see, there is no one at my right hand; no one is concerned for me. I have no refuge; no one cares for my life. Psalm 142:4. Christians in the church should have mutual concern for one another, this is what it means to be part of the body of Christ, 1 Corinthians 12:25. It’s takes good pastoral leadership to foster this sense of concern, and where it is missing, individuals who are suffering in the church are overlooked and not supported. Every believer needs support and encouragement, but when this is missing, the church divides and loses it power and testimony. Christians live like the world, and become vulnerable to Satan’s attacks when nobody is supporting them outside the church. I used to belong to an evangelical church which had great leadership, and something called small groups. This church felt like a family and I had people who shared my Christian walk with me when I was not in the church building. I have been attending a different denomination that doesn’t hav...

The Biblical Meaning of “Life in the Spirit.”

  “Life in the Spirit” is an example that the Apostle Paul gives in the book of Romans starting in chapter 5 and going through to chapter 8. He begins by telling us we are justified by faith (5:1), and have gained access by faith into the grace of God (5:2). We have been delivered from God’s wrath (5:9) and we have been reconciled to God through the death of His Son (5:10). He goes on to explain that through Adam all die (5:12), and that the free Gift of God brings justification and righteousness to the believing sinner (5:15-17).   Through our conversion we are baptized into Christ and into his death, which frees us from the law and makes us dead to sin (6:2-4). He explains that just as Christ was raised from the dead, we are given new life in Christ (6:4). Our old unregenerate self was crucified with Christ so that our body of sin might be done away with (6:5-6). Because we have died to sin, we now submit ourselves to God being that we are now under grace, not the law (6:8-1...
