Which Jesus Will You Follow?
Mar 19th
Unfortunately, Jesus didn’t leave us with a book of teachings or an autobiography. Why not? I don’t know–maybe we’d worship them or do other wacky things. The way Jesus commands us to remember Him isn’t by receiving a book of sayings He writes for us; it’s by actually receiving Him. Although He didn’t write us…
You Want ME To Share the Gospel?
Mar 18th
One reason we refrain from sharing our faith is that we really don’t feel we have much of a faith to share. And we might be right about that. Few know where to turn in Scripture to share salvation outside of John 3:16. And when we evaluate our relationship with Christ, we don’t feel like…
Is It Possible To Share The Gospel In Love?
Mar 17th
It is embarrassing that we would need to consider such a question. The accusation that sharing “good news” is somehow hateful or mean seems odd. Isn’t the message of Jesus we share all about love? Yet, I understand why we pose the question. After all, although there is great news, there is also “bad” news.…
My Neighbor Isn’t Going To Hell, Right?
Mar 15th
In a recent post, I already touched on hell, but focused mostly on those around the world who have never heard the Gospel–is it fair they go to hell? If you are interested in that topic, I suggest you read that post. In today’s post, I want to focus on my next-door neighbor or the…
Four Other Sources To Consider
Mar 13th
Enough about what I have to say about all these subjects I’ve been blogging about lately…it’s good to hear from other people, who often say it better than I ever could: FRANCIS CHAN Out of all the well-known Christian pastors/speakers out there today, I connect with and respect Francis’ message over and over. This video…
A “Better” Christianity, (Part 2: Trust Jesus, not the Bible)
Mar 5th
In my previous post, I started by stating that this “new” Christianity states that we should be cautious to judge things up to Scripture, since quite a few parts of Scripture appear flawed/misguided in their understandings of God. That’s why I commented to Melena that I chose not to use the words of Paul in…
A “Better” Christianity (Part 1: Don’t Judge)
Mar 1st
Ok, so here’s the start of some blog posts that I promised a little while back to unpack some of the beliefs being presented today–claims for a “better” Christianity. Before I get into the first one about “not judging”, let me say that we must judge these “new” claims by Scripture. I believe it’s clear…
Re-Genesis
Feb 11th
The biggest reason why I left Genesis, my former church, was that I believe that putting one’s faith in Jesus Christ is the only way to God, but I was told that this was narrow-minded, judgmental, and arrogant to believe and teach this. Of course, I had been teaching this to the youth, and was…
Only In Alabama
Dec 17th
Ok, maybe not just here in Alabama, but it makes for a compelling blog title. Check this out. It’s a real filing by a law firm to move a trial to a later date. Enjoy! Share this post on Facebook!
Depravity–Do you too know it well?
Nov 19th
Let me start this post by warning you–I’m sure this will be much longer than a typical blog post. I would like to flesh out a series of thoughts I’ve had recently. I would appreciate anyone’s feedback to what you read. These thoughts have originated because of two separate events in my life recently. One…
