The Error Of Progressive Christianity | Pastor Michael Jakes
To the undiscerning ear, progressive Christianity sounds like a winner. But when you what they really believe, it should cause you to shudder. This movement is making its strides; starting churches under the guise of Christianity--but it is NOT! Be warned to separate yourself from this dangerous...

Fresh Start, Fresh Faith - Pastor Michael Jakes
A word for the new year.
-
LOVE EVERYBODY--CHASE NOBODY
The command to love others and proclaim the gospel, is what we will do as the Lord enables us; tell them, compel them, show them, lead them--and then love them some more. But if someone will not hear, do not cast your pearls before swine. Leave them to the Spirit of God. Don't nag, don't prod,...
-
INTO THY HANDS
Jesus spoke the most famous last words ever spoken, when He sais, 'Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit.' Anyone can say it, but not everyone is qualified to say it. When your time comes, can you?
-
A PLACE CALLED OVERWHELMED
'I just can't take it anymore'. These all too familiar words have been spoken by many people--Christians included. They're spoken when feeling overwhelmed. When in that place, there is only one thing to do.
-
KNOW THAT YOU KNOW...THAT YOU KNOW
As we serve the Lord, we will encounter difficult circumstances that will try our faith. If we go into these times with any level of doubt, the enemy can and will strip us of our peace. That's why we need to know...who we are, who He is, and who's in control. There is no room for doubt...at all.
-
THE ONE MEDIATOR
When we need our sins forgiven, there is only one place to go.
-
TAKING GOD OFF THE CLOCK
As much as structure is needed, when we are in the house of God, our focus should be on Him and not the clock on the wall.
-
CAN I GET A WITNESS? PT.2
Though witnessing is an obvious command given by Jesus, we still need to be qualified to carry it out. Are you qualified? An insightful look inside Isaiah 43:10 telling us who we are and what we must do.
-
CAN I GET A WITNESS? PT.1
One of the very things we saved to, is the very thing many of neglect to do for one reason or another. No doubt fear and apathy get in the way, but witnessing to the unsaved is something that should be on the top of our 'to do' list for the Lord. You may say 'Why?' Listen to a straightforward...
-
THE REAL DOOMSDAY
There is a 'doomsday' coming, but it need not put fear in your heart-that is, if you know the Lord. Do you?
-
GET READY
There is no doubt that Jesus is coming again. The question is, are you ready to meet Him? salvation through Jesus is the only way to heaven. Make sure you are ready.
-
THE DEVIL'S JOY pt.2
There a few more things that we do that the devil appreciates-don't get caught making him happy.
-
THE DEVIL'S JOY pt.1
No, scripture obviously doesn't mention anything about the devil having any joy, but I really believe he appreciates some of the nonsensical things we do in the name of Christianity, all the while thinking we have the Lord's approval; the enemy on the other hand simply smiles and says 'Thank you...
-
HANDLE WITH CARE
How shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation? This is the question asked by the writer of Heb.2:3. This question is for those who have already received. You may say, 'How is it possible to do this?' It happens when we are not careful with this gift that has been given to us. Handle it...
-
NO DISTRACTIONS
Nothing slows down our Christian walk like distractions. Distractions of all kinds from every side. We must be careful to remain focused and keep our eyes on Jesus at all times. The Enemy wants to turn our heads-but we cannot allow him to have his way.
-
IN THE GARDEN
Jesus' ultimate victory in the garden of Gethsemane, did not seem to come easy. There was agony and there was suffering-but there was no defeat. When we find ourselves dealing with our 'Gethsemanes', there is so much we can learn if we trust God.
-
THE OVERPOWERING LIFESTYLE
One of the things that the Christian life should be characterized by is WATCHFULNESS. Not just watching out for the devil-that's obvious. We need to watch out for ourselves. Being careful that the things we do don't cancel out the good things we say. Basically, we must practice what we preach.
-
THE BEREAN SPIRIT
The Psalmist had it right. He said that those who love His law (Word) have great peace (Psa.119:165). This can only happen when we make time to read it-and read it with the proper attitude. The Bereans in Acts chapter 17 had that proper attitude. We all need some of that 'Berean spirit'.
-
UNDER THE SUN
King Solomon was a 'been there, done that' type of person. In his pursuit of pleasure, one of the conclusions he came to was that there was 'no new thing under the sun'. We must guard against living our lives apart from the leadership of the Lord, and keep first things first while we do His will...
-
PECULIAR AND PROUD
The world may think we are peculiar, and we are-in the biblical sense. Biblically speaking, our 'peculiarity' stems from the fact that we are God's own special people. Yes, we are unique!
-
BLINDED MINDS
The real problem in the world today is that people simply don't know Jesus. The enemy is doing all he can to keep the light of the gospel from reaching the unsaved. What are we doing to insure that they do see it?
-
CHOSEN NOT FROZEN
From the foundation of the world we have been chosen, and that carries with it responsibility; to do, and to be all that He has chosen us to be in Him. We cannot allow the world to get us to slow down-to the point of a stand still.
-
THE DEFINITION OF YOU
As the world tries to redefine Christianity and Christians, we must be steadfast and keep who we are in Christ ever before us...because sometimes we forget. We must always remember that the definition of who we are is all wrapped up in Him.
-
THE DYING DISCIPLINE
Bible study is probably the most basic of all Christian disciplines; yet it is the most neglected. That which we need the most is the most ignored. There are reasons, but no reason is good enough. e need to rearrange our lives and make room for it. This dying discipline must not be allowed to die...
-
THE HOUSE OF GOD
The Lord has much invested in His house. His name, eyes and heart are forever associated with it. Jesus Himself specifically said that His house is to be a house of prayer. We must be mindful of this at all times because along with being a house of prayer, it is a house of so much more.
-
THE BATTLE TO PRAY
It has been said that the biggest battles are fought on your knees. This rings true for those who are standing in the gap and praying for the lost. Prayer is a dying discipline. 'It's too difficult', some say. Or, 'I don't have time.' Whatever the ecuse, there is no reason not to pray. But once…

WHO, ME SANCTIFIED?
God spoke it loud and clear. 'Be holy, for I am holy.' No wiggle room. No options. The fact is, many Christians either don't live holy or feel holy. However, God will never call anyone and not enable to do and be what He asks or commands. As I am submitted to Him, sanctification will be a natural...
-
WEAPONS OF POWER
Ask anyone and they will tell you that weapons enhance an individuals' effectiveness-especially in a battle. The same holds true in the spiritual realm; except that our weapons are mighty through God. These 'weapons of mass destruction' help us to gain and maintain victory over the devil in our...
-
THE SNOWBALL EFFECT OF SIN
Sin is relentless. This is why it must be effectively and forcefully dealt with in all of its forms. Sins of omission and commission, barrel toward us seeking to bury us along with our testimony. But God is greater. He promises that sin shall not have dominion over us.
-
THE POWER OF ONE
ONE may be a lonely number, but it's also powerful. Coupled with the right amount of focus, strength and awareness, ONE can be the most powerful thing you can do. Though different for each person, sometimes there's only one thing necessary to bring change to your life.
-
STAYING IN THE CLOSET
There a times when it is necessary to get alone with God and seek His face for the needs of ourselves and others. We need to find a private place; a personal place, free from distraction where we can commune with Him one on one. Jesus said to go into our 'closet'. Do you have a 'prayer closet'?
-
FOR SHEPHERDS ONLY
Shepherds, or more commonly known, pastors, serve a very important role in the kingdom of God. They are called to feed the flock that has been entrusted to them. They are to lead, guide and protect, but so much more. A simple overview of the pastor's role.
-
THE MINISTRY OF THE THORN
Thorns are painful. Thorns are uncomfortable. In the same way, thorns are painful in life. But believe it or not, they serve a purpose greater than we can see. When we look at it this way, we understand that thorns are a ministry to us.
-
WORKING IT OUT
In order to 'maintain our edge' in this Christian life, there are certain things we need to do, remembering that we are not alone-God is working in us to will and to do of His good pleasure.
-
ITS NOT WHAT YOU KNOW...
Knowing a thing is good, but with knowledge comes responsibility. What I am going to do with what I know? The more you know about Jesus, the more responsible you are to do something about it. Knowing about Him is good, but KNOWING Him is so much better.
-
CHRISTIANITY IS...
Properly spoken, Christianity is the body of doctrine consisting of the teachings and way of life made possible by the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. But on a practical level, it is so much more. Called a religion by most, it is the single most important relationship you can have.
-
THE LOST WORD
We face a very real danger when we ignore the Word. When that happens we run the risk of losing the Word. We will lose it in our lives, our homes-and even in the house of God.
-
UNBREAKABLE
The Word of God has stood the test of time and will continue to do so. Transmitted to us by the breath of God; protected for us by the power of God. One thing is true-scripture cannot be broken.
-
STRETCHING OUT
When we find ourselves in need, and we know that it's only the Lord who can help, we need to stretch out to Him in faith. Sometimes it's not so easily done; we have to overcome the barrier called SELF.
-
REAL REVIVAL
In any given church at any given time, you will find a revival taking place. Only many of these revivals have been called by men and not sent by God; for when real revival takes place, real change takes place. The question is then, What is real revival?
-
THE INNKEEPERS TUNE(SPOKEN)
During this time of the year so many are out and about trying buy this and do that. What happens many times is that Jesus is lost in the shuffle. The words to this little song bear out the importance of recognizing Jesus and making room for Him in our lives. Have you made room for Jesus?
-
EMPTY BLESSINGS
We need to be careful when we pray. As we petition the Lord, we must be sure that our prayers are according to His will. Anything less, if received, has the potential to be an empty blessing; something that does not deliver what is promised.
-
TRUSTING TRUTH
When you anchor yourself on truth, there will be nothing that is impossible to you. However, if you do not trust truth, and find yourself always doubting it, you complicate your life. the way to true freedom is to trust truth.
-
THE GRATITUDE ATTITUDE
Giving thanks is one of our basic disciplines, and yet many times it's the one thing we either forget or neglect for one reason or another. Sometimes it's the thing we feel does not warrant our thanks, that need all of our thanks.
-
SOUL PRAISE
Our praise to the Lord needs to come from our heart and soul. Anything less indicates that we are simply giving Him lip service. Praise needs to be generated from the right place. Let's bless Him with all our heart and soul.
-
NO IDENTITY CRISIS
We should never be confused about who we are in Christ. Without that sure knowledge, the enemy will surely try and make you who he wants you to be. Know who you are; no time for an identity crisis here.
