I’m going to go out on a limb with this public statement. Naturally, I will be hated and laughed at by the unregenerate world. But unnaturally, this will be rejected by many who profess to be born-again Christians. Nonetheless, I am seeing an increase in female anglers that believe it’s necessary to sexually exploit themselves
Recently on Facebook, a page called “The Chosen” kept popping up on my newsfeed. I then noticed that a large percentage of my Facebook friends ‘liked’ this page. But when I saw this page was a television series about Jesus, I decided to investigate a little further. According to this first post I saw on
These last several days have been a difficult time for my wife, myself, our children, and many family members. Our 23-month-old grandson Lake was admitted into a hospital and was listed in grave condition. Sadly, today Lake succumbed to his medical distress. I am not writing this to invite you to my pity party. Instead,
I erred by watching too much news over these last two days, and that wasn’t good for my spiritual health, nor my blood pressure. Hence in this blog post, I will share just a few of my thoughts on this subject. First, the police administrators and their officers are utilizing a pragmatic policing rather than
One of the greatest setbacks amongst some denominations, is they have too many extra-biblical requirements for the office of elder, as well as for membership, and/or other positions. At one church, I was in the process of becoming a member. But they were a little taken back by my open-air ministry. To become a member they
Next week President Trump will have spent one TRILLION dollars fighting an invisible virus that God decreed, and is in absolute control of. That trillion will be added to our existing 23 trillion dollar debt. As the media sensationalizes this melodrama, he will use the taxpayers’ money to fund this socialist stimulus/bail-out package. He even
What is a Reformed Baptist Church and what do we believe concerning The Scriptures, Preaching, The Doctrines of Grace, Evangelism, and Worship? If I were to be asked, “What kind of a church are you?” I would not hesitate to reply, “We are a Baptist church!” We hold to those truths which have sometimes been
My Pastor gave me the assignment to teach Romans 1:16 during our Lord’s Day worship service. Hence, the following video is an exposition of Romans 1:14-19. Or you can download the Mp3 audio file here. Below this video, for your reference, I also provided a transcript. Though obviously I will not be teaching through the
Yesterday Facebook friend Kristine Harhoef posted this on her page. It’s obvious that Kristine has a respectful concern for both the health of the Lord’s church, and for the scattered sheep. There are so many bitter church members or ex-members on my news feed who are FULL of spiritual zeal, FULL of incredible talent
I’d rather not include the names, but I just watched a debate on should women preach on the “Lord’s Day” at church. The Opponent did a fine job until he compromised during the Q&A. A woman asked the Opponent, “Does 1st Timothy 2:11-14 apply to women gifted in preaching outside the gathering of the local
These great commands by our Lord are rarely truly applied, obeyed and/or practiced (at least from my observations). Therefore I put this sermon together for the Lord’s people. I did an exposition of the Text, and shared several experiences, and how I applied this passage to them. The sermon notes to this teaching are available
MacArthur is spot-on, and he certainly has been proven to consistently demonstrate courage throughout the many decades. Understandably this video is only an excerpt. So what MacArthur did not mention (or this video did not permit the time for), is that courage must go way beyond the pulpit. It is the congregants that are called
