The Paradox of Freedom and Law

The Paradox of Freedom and Law

Laws are excellent if they do not apply to you. Many young people long for the day they go to college, or somewhere they are no longer under their parents’ ‘restrictive’ rules. However, no sooner than they are out of parental supervision than they must submit to new restrictive rules in colleges or places of work. Freedom is not the […]

Be A Xerox Copy of God

Be A Xerox Copy of God

“Be imitators of God … as dearly loved children and live a life of love …” (Eph. 5:1-2). God’s invitation to imitate Him is an unscalable challenge to every one of us. Who can imitate God? We failed the test of keeping the Ten Commandments, and God graciously set them aside and introduced salvation by GRACE through FAITH. No one […]

Mirrors, Mirrors, Mirrors.

Mirrors, Mirrors, Mirrors.

Mirrors are a great discovery and so vital that we have them in bathrooms, bedrooms, and living rooms, and most ladies carry them around in their purses. As the mirror reveals, there is always a 100% response to fix whatever is incorrect. As good as the mirror is, it lacks the power to change anything in you; you have to […]

Jesus and the two disciples On the Road to Emmaus, by Duccio, 1308–1311, Museo dell'Opera del Duomo, Siena (WikiCommons)

Implications of Easter

Christ is risen indeed! But what does it mean to you? The good news of the resurrection was proclaimed to the disciples by the women who saw Him alive, but the news only added to their confusion. However, something dramatic happened when Christ revealed Himself to the two disciples on the road to Emmaus, the ten, Thomas, and then Paul […]

The Cross Existed Before Sin!

The Cross Existed Before Sin!

The CROSS, where our redemption was paid, was in God’s heart even before the world’s foundation. “… the Lamb that was slain from the foundation of the world” (Rev. 13:8). That means even before we were created and yielded to sin, God knew of our predicament and reached out in love to save us. We rebel against God and express […]

Choosing To Die to Live

Choosing To Die to Live

As a result of the spiritual and physical death passed on to man because of the fall, we come into the world determined to live and not die. But no one has succeeded in keeping themselves alive physically or spiritually. Death is inescapable. Jesus Christ is eternal and has no sin and lives forever, yet He chose to be born […]

SIN: A Debt with A High Interest

SIN: A Debt with A High Interest

For the wages of sin is death (Rom. 6:23a). Sin is an enticement to enjoy a massive loan with an astronomically high interest rate and stiff penalties. The loan is only for projects that are adjudged morally inappropriate from the Bible’s point of view. Those loans are invested in lustful ventures that crash, leaving the people without lasting benefits and […]

Spiritual Giants

Spiritual Giants

If you think you are a spiritual giant because you have been a Christian for many years, or degrees earned from seminaries, a position in the church, a spiritual gift being exercised, financial contribution, and holy life that you live, think again. You are a spiritual giant only in your eyes because you are comparing yourself with fellow humans. You […]

Erecting Your Memorial

Erecting Your Memorial

When God stopped the flow of the Jordan and the children of Israel crossed over the river on dry ground, they were commanded to pick up stones from the riverbed and set them up as a memorial (Jos. 3 and 4). No one, including the unborn generation, was to forget what God did for Israel. God is still doing great […]

Irresistible Heaven

Irresistible Heaven

Heaven, as described in Revelation 21:1-22:6, is irresistible, and the price is right – absolutely free – free to us but paid for by Christ’s death on the cross. The current earth and heaven with all the hang-ups will pass away, and God will usher us into a new heaven and earth. The best thing about heaven is that God […]
