The Apostle Paul used the analogy of an athlete striving for mastery, and how the athlete isn't crowned unless he stays within the parameters of the rules of the competition. We live in a generation where among those seeking a heavenly crown it is promoted that grace allows for bending the rules. This is a damnable... Continue Reading →
From the apostate to the lukewarm, there is one root cause, a root of bitterness.
I recently hosted a bible study on understanding the main cause of the falling away of Christians. It is a “root of bitterness.” Many who have been introduced to the gospel of Christ have rejected His testimony and have succumb to the spirit of anti-Christ.

Secret of the Blooming Heart
One good way of determining if you are in right standing with GOD is by taking a measure of your gratefulness.
