Disagree But Don't Kill

11/29/2015

 
The right to disagree is universal—everyone can do so, based upon evidence which proves that one is right. With evidence one can disagree with gay advocates. With evidence one can disagree with those of the Muslim faith. With evidence, one can disagree with atheists. etc. What one cannot do is kill the people who don’t share their belief.

I don’t agree with any of the groups I have just mentioned because I have evidence from the word of God (the Bible) which teaches the opposite of what these groups believe. But beheading people because they cannot quote a Quran verse or going on a killing spree against those whom aren’t considered right; isn’t the work of God, it is the work of Satan!

God has made it clear in His word, that the earth would have people who don’t see eye to eye. The Bible doesn’t endorse division in the world, but it does affirm that it exists. People can respectfully talk about their differences, but cannot kill each other over them. The killings we have seen in the past weeks is murder and the ones who commit such acts have a burning hell awaiting them.

Do Not Conform

11/22/2015

 
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s perfect will is (Romans 12:2).

When churches or individual Christians turn from the Biblical authority that has been taught, and adapt to the philosophies that is being promoted by the world, that church or person has departed from the word of God (Colossians 2:8; 1 Timothy 4:1). The church is not to be instructed by the movers and shakers of this world, instead the church is supposed to be changing the world and teaching Bible values to them. Today there are many churches that have sold out to the world by changing their doctrines and allowing man-made, worldly values (PC) to enter the church (Revalation 2:14-22).

The church is suppose to stand on the eternal word of God and His word never needs an update because it will outlast our world and judge all men at the end of time (John 12:48; Rev. 20:12; 1 Peter 1:23-25; 1 John 2:15-17; Matthew 24:35).

Stand on Eternal Word of God

Government Can Become Corrupt

11/8/2015

 
The government, like the home, is ordain by God (Genesis 3:16; Romans 13:1-2). The government is supposed to be just and righteous, but sometimes the government becomes corrupt (Ecclesiastes 3:16-17). Just because that might be the case, it is no excuse for rulers, and they will have to repent in order for God to bless that nation (Proverbs 14:34, 16:7, 10:27-28, 11:11; Psalm 33:12).

At the moment there are things in this present administration that believers of the word of God cannot accept (Acts 5:29). However, we won’t start acting like idiots and become violent and unruly. Instead the faithful will stand for God’s word and teach it in a peaceful way wherever they can (Acts 8:4-5).

You Don't Have Time

11/1/2015

 
Man doesn’t have the time he may think. As fast as time goes, 20 years seems like yesterday. Man gets older, fatter, wrinkled, gray, etc. People are aging, they cannot walk as fast or eat as much or sleep like they use to. Everything hurts and aging is the result. The coffin and the graveyard is right around the corner and man best wake up and realize the fact.

Which brings us to eternity. Where will you spend it? Heaven? Hell? How do you know? Man can know his negatives and positives; but that can only be known by the Bible which is the word of God. We invite you to know where you are headed and that will be shown to you by God’s word. Feel free to contact us so we can break the bread of life together.
