You would? This is what it involves. NUMBER ONE. Acts 2. men and brethren what shall we do. Repent and be baptized for the forgiveness of sin and you shall receive the holy spirit. In other words, there is an entrance fee. It starts with repentance to deal with sin in your life. If you are an...

Will the Trump peace plan for Israel work? The answer is no for two reasons. One. The Palestinians will not accept it because it does not give them the whole of the West Bank. Two. It gives the Palestinians 70% of the West Bank but it is not his to give because God has given the land of...

I would like to say a big thankyou to all those writers who have been so kind to me with your likes for the stuff I post. I don't get out so much these days so I have plenty of time to sit and write which I love doing (I am writing a novel at the moment). I love studying the New Testament...

Matthew 24:6 But you are going to hear of wars and rumors of wars. See, do not be terrified. For all things must take place, but the end is not yet. I am reading a book written by a Christian who fought in Kosovo with the American forces. My brain got into gear and started thinking about war...

1Co 11:19 For also heresies need to be among you, so that the approved ones may become revealed among you. 1Co 11:20 Then you coming together into one place, it is not to eat the Lord's supper. 1Co 11:21 For each one takes his own supper first in the eating; and one is hungry, and another...

Having completed a bible study on the nine gifts of the Spirit in 1 Cor 12. I thought long and hard about starting another one on another subject. They say ignorance is bliss, but not in the case of knowing the truth, bearing in mind that the Holy Spirit came to lead us into ALL truth. So I...

I have just watched five videos of mainly professionals in the realm of psychology and psychiatry who have spoken in no uncertain terms that anyone who wants to be what they are not and engage medical personal to change their gender are in for a very rough ride. One, in particular, a doctor...

Of late there is a push for a few homosexuals and some governments to make it illegal to counsel homosexuals who do not want to be homosexual. Of course, the homosexual mafia would have to attack this because it is just another step to silencing the church and controlling the truth so that only...

I am a father of two and the grandfather of 12. I have 10 granddaughters and two grandsons. The oldest is 16 and the youngest has just been born. Every one of them is a living human being capable of feeling, pain, laughter, joy, thinking, happiness, sorrow, likes, dislikes. Some days they are...

There are nine gifts of the Spirit, or in Greek terms nine charismas where we get the word charismatic. Those of you that are secessionists need not read this as you will disagree with everything I will say. These nine charismas are listed in 1 Corinthians 12. There are other gifts and...

:eek: Yes, I know. You don't have to tell me. I am being provocative but I have to have fun now and then. Just to put you in the picture I have made a very extensive study of this topic and have read many, many books and articles dealing with it. Soooooo, I am not just shooting from the mouth...

If you went to bible college as I did, you would have been told that you do not form a doctrine with one verse of scripture. Despite that fact, the church has done that very thing by taking the verse in Matthew 28 which says to go into all the world and make disciples of all nations, baptising...

I was sitting in my armchair (entertainment?) writing on my computer and it came to me to ask a question. Where does the christian stand regarding entertainment. By that I mean golf, fishing, TV, cinema, theatre, holidays, car meets, sport, reading, ice cream, restaurants, halloween, skiing...

I am autistic and I was going to make a comment on the thread “Love” and then decided that it might be a subject of discussion in itself so here goes. The church needs to hear this as if it fails to understand the mind of the autistic person, that person can be treated very badly and...

I remember about 25 years ago, speaking at a fledgling church one Sunday morning. My topic was "In the Beginning God." I don't remember much about what I said as I spoke without notes of any kind. I relied entirely on the Holy Spirit to give me the words that I was to speak. I know that I said...

For the last 10 years, I have been studying church history. Apart from my study of the New Testament, I must have read at least 60 books on the subject. My latest journey is the 8 volume “History of the Christian Church” by Philip Schaff. I am rather pleased with this purchase as it normally...

We all know about the physical Armageddon that is going to take place at the end of the age, but I was thinking about a spiritual armageddon where there is going to be an almighty battle for the church. ​It seems that satan has begun a campaign to destroy the spiritual life of the church and...

I am not sure where this will end up, but I thought that it would do no harm to raise the subject as it happens all the time in the church. Essentially, the church is a haven for the wounded. If we are all born in sin and for many, sin is dominant in their lives, although born again, we are...

Are you intolerant is the question. The atheist and homosexual regularly level this accusation at us because we disagree with their man made ideas. Their worldview is that everyone is right so you should not critisize others. Of course they have not realised that they believe everyone is right...

NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH I spent two years studying the New Testament to see what it had to say about the New Testament Church. A lot of my study was informed by the original Greek so as to avoid modern English impositions in the meaning of words. I wanted a complete picture so I looked at...
