2Ti 4:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth? A question God asks of Job, and it is a good question.

It's interesting when reading the Old Testament and it says they forgat God, they remembered not the Lord their God, or did evil in the sight of the Lord. It seems to be a pattern we are following

Today we are going to look at the sinner's prayer and what comprises most of them.

We often forget His Mercy and Grace, His long suffering faithfulness.We are going to look at a few instances

Sometimes we forget God is The Father. Not just a Spirit being who created all, but a Father to us as well. In every sense of the Word.

He is faithful, full of compassion and grace. Here is the proof.

Romeo and Juliet? Jack and Rose?Nope this is the Love Story they need.A tale of love and rejection time and time again for thousands of years yet still there, still vibrant, and still strong.

Man looks at man through a incomplete lens and wonders how God could have called and used this man.Why this man? God says why not this man.

Jesus died for your sin, for my sin, there is a free gift out there waiting for you, but you must accept it. You must believe, repent of your sin life, and turn to Him as your Lord and Savior.

At the House of Mary and Martha, at Lazarus' grave we truly see the doubt and unbelief that Jesus dealt with day to day. It is staggering when you see it.

Judges 17 A strange tale where every man did that which was right in his own eyes. A mother, a father, a son and a Levite, an account that makes fiction seem normal.

Do we? At this Easter, Resurrection Sunday Do we believe? Do we bear the shame and reproach of that cross?

Who was there is as important as who wasn't

No one lights a candle to put it under a bushel. Today's Christian says "challenge accepted."

Let your light so shine before men and Glorify your Father in Heaven.

Please note the 3rd word in that title.

We tend to only think on the good sunny stuff, yet every now and then we must consider the inevitable.

Martha was busy preparing food, Mary was seated at Jesus' feet.Neither was wrong. One was needed (martha), one was doing what was needful.

You do realize that your "salvation" is in the shed Blood? that you covenanted with Him (A Blood Covenant) to Be His people, and He to be your God?He laid out the terms, you called on His name and said yes I accept these terms, you are my God.You are now His, not yours, not the world's and not satan's.
