    A SURE SALVATION

    That statement is rock solid for people who are truly born again. Thanks for the reminder. Romans 5 does not stutter. “Being justified by faith, we have peace with God” ~Romans 5:1. “Being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath” ~Romans 5:9. “We have now received the atonement”...

    Keeping It Centered on Jesus

    We are beginning our journey through the bible this year with Matthew 1:1-2:12 When a new year rolls around, folks start talking about doing better and trying harder. God does not start there. He starts by pointing us straight to His Son. Matthew opens with it plain as day, “The book of the...

    The Courtroom Where Excuses Die

    That idea doesn’t hold water when you hold it up to the Bible. The accuser is God Himself, by His Word. God doesn’t need a hired lawyer to make His case. He’s the Judge, and His Word is the evidence. Jesus said the very words He spoke will judge a man in the last day ~John 12:48. John saw it...

    The Courtroom Where Excuses Die

    Believers are not the only ones reading this forum. Scripture warns that false teachers and those who profess Christ without knowing Him are among us. I have encountered many on this forum. Jesus Himself said many will say “Lord, Lord” and still be rejected ~Matthew 7:21–23. Judgment passages...

    ♪♫ Happy New Year 2026 Everyone! ♪♫ ♥

    Another year marches out of the dust and onto the trail, but the Lord of heaven has not moved an inch. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today, and forever ~Hebrews 13:8. Grass withers and the flower fades, but the word of our God shall stand for ever ~Isaiah 40:8. Men change, nations...

    A new year is riding in, but God has not changed. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever ~Hebrews 13:8. Changing the calendar will not change a man’s heart. Repent, walk straight, and keep your life anchored in the Word. Eternity is closer than it was yesterday.

    The Courtroom Where Excuses Die

    One day every excuse goes quiet. No delays. No spin. No hiding behind religion, good intentions, or a cleaned-up version of Jesus. Revelation 20 is the moment history stops moving and every soul stands exposed before God as the books are opened and the Judge takes His seat. This is not symbolism...

    The Courtroom Where Excuses Die

    One day the lights are going out on every excuse, every delay, and every lie people told themselves about God. Revelation 20 is the moment when mercy is no longer offered and the Judge takes His seat. Not poetry. Not symbolism to soften the blow. This is where history stops running and stands...

    How many former Catholics are here?

    First, you say you are “not blaming Christians,” yet your entire argument is built on attacking Christians you dislike, mocking their use of Scripture, and judging Christianity by bad examples. Scripture explicitly warns against that. The failures of men do not redefine the truth of God ~Romans...

    How many former Catholics are here?

    Quoting Scripture isn’t a religious tradition. It’s how truth is known. God never told us to trust tone, credentials, or opinions. He said man lives by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God ~Matthew 4:4. When people “turn off” at Scripture, that doesn’t expose a problem with the Bible...

    How many former Catholics are here?

    Calling God’s Word “babbling” doesn’t make it false. It just shows contempt for truth. Scripture says, “He that despiseth the word shall be destroyed” ~Proverbs 13:13. When people don’t want truth, mockery is usually what comes next ~2 Peter 3:3. I didn’t give opinions. I quoted Scripture. Jude...

    Oklahoma orders first shipment of Bibles for use in public school classrooms

    That line doesn’t show wisdom. It shows blindness. The Bible doesn’t drive people to atheism. It drives them to truth. Scripture says faith comes by hearing the Word of God ~Romans 10:17. What turns people off isn’t reading the Bible, it’s loving darkness more than light ~John 3:19. To call...

    Oklahoma orders first shipment of Bibles for use in public school classrooms

    There’s no such thing as neutral ground. When schools kick God out, they don’t get rid of belief. They just swap truth for something else. The Bible says the fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge ~Proverbs 1:7. Remove that, and what you’re left with isn’t education. It’s confusion. The...

    The Wolves Are Already Among Us

    I do what I do because Scripture commands it, and Scripture also explains why some people hate it. Jesus said to beware of wolves ~Matthew 7:15. Paul warned that men would rise up from among us speaking twisted things ~Acts 20:29–30. Jude said they creep in unnoticed ~Jude 1:4. That means...

    How many former Catholics are here?

    You keep looking at the smoke rather than the fire. You watch people, institutions, history, and poor examples and then blame Christianity for the mess. Scripture says not to do that. God says, “Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils” ~Isaiah 2:22. Christianity is not determined by...

    How many former Catholics are here?

    You are redefining words rather than letting the Bible speak for itself. Scripture clearly says believers have fellowship with God ~1 John 1:3 and are called into fellowship with His Son ~1 Corinthians 1:9. That is not philosophy. That is Bible. Catholic practices are not just “different.”...

    How many former Catholics are here?

    You are judging Christianity by watching people, not by listening to God. Scripture already warns that not everyone who claims to be saved truly is ~Matthew 7:21–23. Some will profess faith for a time and then fall away because there was no root ~Luke 8:13. That does not expose Christianity as...

    How many former Catholics are here?

    Agreement does not come from everyone “making things up.” It comes from submitting to what God has already said. Scripture says the faith was once delivered to the saints ~Jude 1:3 and warns against adding to it ~Galatians 1:8–9. Disagreement exists because many choose tradition, philosophy, or...

    The Wolves Are Already Among Us

    Agreed. Matthew 7:21–23 shows that profession alone proves nothing. Jesus rejects those who practice lawlessness. On the support issue, Paul calls it a right, not a validation, and he himself refused it so the gospel would not be hindered ~1 Corinthians 9:15–18. Scripture tests teachers by truth...
