Moses made an end of speaking.” Deuteronomy 32:45

by

So we all shall do some day. Moses knew it was the end for him; we may not know when our end is at hand. Any word of ours, spoken amid glee and merriment, may be our last!! If we always thought of this—would it not make us more careful? Would we ever say an unkind word to a friend, if we felt that we may never have an opportunity to unsay it or repent of it? Would we ever utter an angry, untrue, or unclean word—if we only remembered that it may be the last utterance our lips shall …

How Much Longer Lord? :: By Pete Garcia

by

I bet everyone reading this has asked God that very same question at least once or twice. How much longer will this current world-gone-mad continue? It feels like we are at the end, but then days turn into weeks, weeks turn into months, and months into years. But why then does last week, feel like last year? Why does last year, feel like last century? Everything seems to be speeding up, but at the same time, it never seems to culminate into anything tangible? What if 2018 comes and goes and we are still here? All the while, the world …

What Does It Mean to Be “Saved”?

by

We cannot make ourselves righteous, so Jesus offered His blood to pay our sin debt. Our part is to believe it. PsalmsChapter 25 1 (A Psalm of David.) Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.2 O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.3 Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.4 Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.5 Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; …

Becoming Fit for Glory

by

“The LORD will give grace and glory” (Psalm 84:11). Grace is what we need just now, and it is to be had freely. What can be freer than a gift? Today we shall receive sustaining, strengthening, sanctifying, satisfying grace. He has given daily grace until now, and as for the future, that grace is still sufficient. If we have but little grace the fault most lie in ourselves; for the LORD is not straitened, neither is He slow to bestow it in abundance. We may ask for as much as we will and never fear a refusal. He giveth liberally …

“Ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.” Galatians 3:26

by

The fatherhood of God is common to all his children. Ah! Little-faith, you have often said, “Oh that I had the courage of Great-heart, that I could wield his sword and be as valiant as he! But, alas, I stumble at every straw, and a shadow makes me afraid.” List thee, Little-faith. Great-heart is God’s child, and you are God’s child too; and Great-heart is not one whit more God’s child than you are. Peter and Paul, the highly-favoured apostles, were of the family of the Most High; and so are you also; the weak Christian is as much a …

TODAY IS THE DAY OF SALVATION

by

Everyone will spend eternity somewhere. Don’t put off securing yours in Jesus. Hebrews 3:7-197 Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.10 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.11 So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in …

14 – The Throne Room of God

by

In the year that king Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and his train filled the temple (ASV, 1901). These passages in chapter six are officially the divine blessing of Isaiah’s prophetic ministry. Uzziah also referred to as Azariah reigned from 791–740 B.C. Uzziah took the throne […]

A New Life

by

2 Corinthians 10:5 “…casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ…” In Chapter 8 of the book of John, we are told of a woman who was caught in the act of adultery. The Pharisees came with the woman in tow and began asking Jesus what should be done to her. They knew that the law said that she should be stoned to death, but they asked Him nonetheless. Jesus then stooped down and began to write in the sand. They continued to …

Joy From Out of Pain

by

Reflections A woman when she is in travail has sorrow because her hour is come. But as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembers no more the anguish for joy that a man is born into the world. And you now therefore have sorrow. But I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man takes from you. (John 16:21-22) Jesus said these things to His disciples right before He was arrested and crucified. They had hoped for an immediate kingdom with Jesus as the Messiah, and it was all about to …

***IF WE SIN WILLFULLY***

by

One of the most misunderstood passages in all of the Bible (2nd only to “judge not”) is Hebrews 10:26. We recently discovered John Hagee’s butchering of this verse to try and teach his false view that eternal life can be lost. Here is what the verse says: Hebrews 10:26 KJV For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, Ok, what does this verse mean? First of all, it is absolutely imperative with any verse in the Bible to understand the context in which it was written. …

The Chronicles of Life and Death – by Pete Garcia

by

”God pours life into death and death into life without a drop being spilled.” ~Author Unknown Nobody likes to think of the day when his or her life will come to an end. Our mortality is as inevitable as it is foreboding, so most people prefer to spend their days not thinking about it. But death comes for us all, and in the end, acts as that great equalizer for all of mankind. The rich, the poor, the great and small, famous and anonymous all have yet to escape deaths’ surly grip. In fact, the Bible speaks of only two …
