LYING LIPS AND THE APOCALYPSE- by Steve Schmutzer

by

I’m in no mood to mince words here, nor is there good reason to. The truth about our nation’s political and cultural upheavals needs to be plainly stated, so I’ll start with the burner on low and turn up the heat as I go. There are various ways to approach these issues, but I want to look at “the good, the bad, and the ugly.” With my nod to Clint Eastwood, that’s an easy outline to follow. First – the “good.” President Trump has achieved an amazing feat with our nation’s economy, and even the Washington Compost, The Associated Depress, …

Overcoming Trials

by

Overcoming Trials Hebrews 11:23-29 23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw he was a beautiful child; and they were not afraid of the king’s edict. 24 By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter, 25 choosing rather to endure ill-treatment with the people of God than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin, 26 considering the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he was looking to the reward. 27 By faith he left Egypt, …

“And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible.”—Jeremiah 15:21.

“And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible.”—Jeremiah 15:21. NOTE the glorious personality of the promise. I will, I will. The Lord Jehovah Himself interposes to deliver and redeem His people. He pledges Himself personally to rescue them. His own arm shall do it, that He may have the glory. Here is not a word said of any effort of our own which may be needed to assist the Lord. Neither our strength nor our weakness is taken into the account, but the lone …

How are you doing at handling your loneliness?

by

How are you doing at handling your loneliness? I don’t have to ask you whether you are lonely. Single or married, you know what this hollow feeling is like. It’s an inescapable part of being human, but trying to escape it rarely works. It just pushes it under the surface for a while, to pop up again later. One of the misbeliefs is that this ache can be eliminated. It can’t be. But you can lessen its effects. You can deal with it in constructive ways that make it less painful and less frequent, but if you think that a …

Revelation Message 60 All Who Enter The Kingdom are Saved

by

Now when the population enter the Messianic Kingdom each one will have experienced true regeneration. Not easy beliefism. There is a major distinction. One is simply lip service and the other is a fully changed heart toward God coupled with repentance. In fact when the entire Nation Israel is “Saved” there will be a national confession of their sins, which will last for two days (Hosea 6:1-3)! So the entire Nation of Israelites who confess their sins and believe that Jesus is who He said He was go into the Kingdom. All others die and some even by their own …

Blessings

by

Psalm 56:8-9 8 Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book? 9 When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me. Revelation 21:4 4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. Blessings – Laura Story (with lyrics)

Wrestling With God

by

Reflections Wrestling With God Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. (Gen. 32:24) Jacob was promised his inheritance from God. But he did not abandon himself to God and allow God to bring it to pass. He represents ourselves – and the efforts of religious flesh – not to directly rebel against God – but to try to wrestle from God what God has already promised to freely give. God has made many promises in His Word. It is good and right for us to believe Him. But if we …

Speaking Through Sickness

by

Speaking Through Sickness Acts 9:1-9 9 Now Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest, 2 and asked for letters from him to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to the Way, both men and women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem. 3 As he was traveling, it happened that he was approaching Damascus, and suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him; 4 and he fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?” 5 …

39 The Law Began With Fear & Terror

by

In describing the believer’s position, the apostle draws a contrast between where they were in the Mosaic Law. Next, he will tell them where they are now in Christianity. If these Jewish believers go back to the old system, they are returning to a place that was inaugurated by utter terror. In contrast, they leave a place of privilege and grace as exemplified by the heavenly city. God wanted the ancient Israelites to fear Him so they would not sin. Exodus 20:20 Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid; for God has come in order to test you, and …
