    Reading but Never Seeing: Why Scripture Remains Hidden to the Lost

    Have you ever noticed people who are blind to the Bible: When Truth is Staring Them in the Face? When you defended your faith, you’ve likely run into it, people twisting Scripture, misquoting verses, or denying plain biblical truth that’s staring them in the face. You can quote verse after...

    What are some of the reasons people don’t like going to church buildings or institutionalized churches?

    I’ve been thinking lately about why a lot of people don’t like going to church buildings or being part of big, organized churches. The Bible talks about staying connected with other believers (Hebrews 10:24-25), but it also warns about false teachers and churches being more about money and show...

    The Danger of Twisting God’s Word

    We can learn a Lesson Luke 22:3 that says, “Then Satan entered into Judas called Iscariot, who was of the number of the twelve.” This is one of the most chilling moments in Scripture, a man who walked with Jesus, witnessed His miracles, and heard the truth from His own lips, yet allowed himself...

    If Satan disguises himself as an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14), how can we be sure we're not following someone who appears “biblical” but is ac

    Can Someone Sound Biblical and Still Be a False Teacher? 2 Corinthians 11:14 warns us that “Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.” That means not everything that looks good, sounds spiritual, or uses Bible verses is truly from God. Some of the most dangerous deceptions come from...

    You Don’t Have to Answer Everyone—Jesus Didn’t Either

    When Jesus Said Enough Is Enough: Why We Don’t Answer Every Attack. Luke 20:8 says, “So Jesus said to them, ‘Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.’” To understand this, we need to look at the context. In Luke 20:1–7, the religious leaders confronted Jesus in the temple and...

    What is a “Push-button salvation”?

    There are no push-button salvation options. “Push-button salvation” is a common term, often used critically, to describe the idea that salvation (being saved from sin and eternal punishment) can be achieved through a simple, effortless act, like pressing a button, rather than through genuine...

    “We Will Not Have This Man to Reign Over Us”, The Root of Rebellion

    In Luke 19:14, Jesus tells a sobering truth through a parable: “But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.” This is not just a historical snapshot of Israel’s rejection of their Messiah, it’s a reflection of the heart condition...

    The Greatest Lie Ever Told: You’re Fine Just as You Are

    One of the most dangerous lies saturating our world today is this: You’re fine just as you are. The enemy speaks this lie directly to us which is subtle yet deadly because it affirms our false sense of security. Satan uses flattering half-truths to mislead people into thinking they have achieved...

    No Exceptions: Jesus Was Talking to You

    I look forward to reading through the Bible in a year because just about every day I see something new, and it makes me think, "How does this apply to us today?" One verse that stood out recently was when Peter said, “Lord, are you telling this parable for us or for all?” (Luke 12:41). At first...

    Building Lives, Not Buildings: The Biblical Mandate for Charitable Giving

    Click Here for the new blog post. In many cases, when preachers beg for money, especially in emotionally charged or manipulative ways, the money often goes to maintain the ministry’s image, fund lavish lifestyles, or build physical empires, like bigger buildings, expensive media productions, or...

    Eyes Off the Truth: Recovering the Simplicity of the Gospel

    In a time when church buildings grow taller and programs grow busier, many are left wondering what the Gospel really is and where it can still be found in its purity. Confusion abounds not because the Word of God has changed, but because many have shifted their eyes from Christ to construction...

    Masters of Cozenage

    I was reading this post on my friend's website and thought some of you might like to read it. Below is the first of it.: "To give some color to this age-old, Black & White Picture of “Painting” a good, honest, sincere, and Godly person with various shades of fraud, hypocrisy, malfeasance...

    Religious but Lost: What Jesus Really Said to the “Good People”

    Today in Luke 11:37–44, we see one of the most significant moments during Jesus’ time on earth. He was invited to dine with a Pharisee who, by the way, was one of the most religious men of his day. Instead of offering polite conversation or mutual admiration, Jesus delivers a sharp and public...

    Don’t Be Fooled by the Glow: When Darkness Pretends to Be Light

    Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is full of light, but when it is bad, your body is full of darkness. Therefore be careful lest the light in you be darkness. If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly bright, as...

    From Warning to Wrath: Proverbs’ Urgent Cry

    I have been calling you, inviting you to come, but you would not listen. You paid no attention to me. You have ignored all my advice and have not been willing to let me correct you. So when you get into trouble, I will laugh at you. I will make fun of you when terror strikes— when it comes on...

    Spiritual Betrayal in the Name of Love: The Lie of Religious Tolerance

    Did you know that a gospel of tolerance is no gospel at all, its treason. It is spiritual betrayal in the name of love. Religious tolerance is Satan’s favorite tool in the Modern Church. It is the idol of tolerance where churches trade truth for approval. Religious tolerance, when it comes to...

    Dust and Doom: The Consequence of Unbelief

    But whenever you enter a town and they do not receive you, go into its streets and say, ‘Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that the kingdom of God has come near.’ I tell you, it will be more bearable on that day for Sodom than for...

    The Most Hated Truth

    “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” ~ Romans 3:23 – This verse affirms the universal nature of sin—everyone is guilty before God. People go to great lengths to deny, distort, or soften the most hated and uncomfortable truth revealed in Scripture: that every human being is...
