When faced with challenges and difficulties, it is important that our faith and trust remain in GOD. Trusting in GOD looks a lot different than trusting in your own strength. What is known as the “fall of man” occurred when Adam and Eve decided to make a go at life without trusting GOD as life.... Continue Reading →
Christ didn’t come to win friends; He came to save friends. Christ came calling sinners to repentance. Sin is rebellion against GOD, and rebellion against GOD is lethal both physically and spiritually. You can’t consider yourself someone’s friend if you are unwilling to warn them of danger. We shouldn’t mistake gaining the favor of someone... Continue Reading →
Though the earth keeps spinning and moving around the sun, and though news headlines continually rage with menacing current events, practice stillness in your heart and mind by remembering that all the movements of the universe are like the wheels of a clock set by YAHWEH. Though I do not know what all the New... Continue Reading →
People, especially men, feel that they must always have an answer, and if they can’t figure it out, they’ll often make up an answer or say no one really knows. There would be far less false teachings in the world if people would just admit they do not know. Instead, they speak from presumption and... Continue Reading →

There is a fallacy being propagated in the Church like a sweet liquor in the fruit punch making everyone intoxicated. The tainted punch being served is the teaching of Christ’s sweet love. I have encountered so many Christians that have modified the gospel to satisfy the taste of the world, and we all know the... Continue Reading →
I have often heard people say that they follow or believe in the god of their understanding. Considering how little man understands about this vast universe we live in, that doesn’t allow for much of a supreme being. A person which limits reality to only what they can understand deifies their intellect. The true and... Continue Reading →
As 2020 draws to a close, we begin reflecting on the events of the year. This year has been humbling for many and has hopefully taught us many lessons. Once again, many have learned that they are not in control and that they don’t understand things as well as they thought. There is only one... Continue Reading →
A heart surrendered unto GOD is a heart bowed down under the weightiness of GOD’s mercy and grace, which has become rooted in His love. A heart surrendered unto GOD becomes a tree planted by the rivers of water, which brings forth his fruit in his season, and his leaves does not whither. A heart... Continue Reading →
