Biblical truth standing on its spiritual head to get our eternal attention.

1 John 3:12 – Who Are We Worshiping?

| October 19, 2015

Both Cain and Abel offered bloody sacrifices. Abel offered a sacrifice from his flock to his God. Cain, when he brutally murdered his brother, offered a sacrifice from God’s flock to his god, Satan: “Cain was of the evil one and slaughtered his brother” (1 John 3:12). The lesson for us is we can be […]

1 John 1 – Jesus is the Finale

| October 19, 2015

Like music, the Bible has repeating patterns we must hear. Adam and Eve sin and are expelled from the Garden. King Saul sins and is expelled from his throne. Israel sins and is expelled from the land. And then comes the finale where the familiar theme is given a new twist: Jesus comes, doesn’t sin, […]

Romans 5:8 – Tolerating the Left and Right

| October 5, 2015

Why is it impossible for unbelievers to understand how a Christian can be against a sin, and yet love the sinner? First and as always, we believers must look at ourselves. Do we say “love” but act in hate? Do we preach against sin, but refuse to associate with sinners? Second, despite all the talk […]

Jude 1:22-23 – How To Build Spiritual Muscle

| October 1, 2015

There is a segment of people who love lists; who need lists. Preachers search to make lists to form “everyone’s” favorite type of sermon: A How To. Some search so hard they fail to see the list right in front of them. So if you like lists, Jude shows us how to build spiritual muscle […]

Matthew 1:1 – Abraham Not Terah

| October 1, 2015

Jesus is a biological descendant of Terah, Abraham’s father. But Matthew does not go back to Terah; he starts with Abraham. The reason is Jesus is not a theological, spiritual, and covenant descendant of Terah, an idol worshipper. The covenant line begins with Abraham. Even those of us not biologically related to Terah and Abraham […]

1 Samuel 8:5 – Motives Behind Israel Wants A King

| September 30, 2015

Israel wanted a king “like the nations” (1 Sam.8:5). Deuteronomy predicts this would happen (17:14-15). A king in Israel was not against God’s plan unless we want to consider God only decided Jesus’ genealogy and kingship after Israel’s demand for a king. If not, then what was the problem? It is the same three problems […]

Exodus 20 – The 10 Commandments in Christ (5th – Honor)

| September 25, 2015

The 5th Command is about honoring your father and mother; followed by a promise of life. This promise of life is followed by a command to not take life; which is the 6th. The rest of the commands are familiar but missing in much of society today: do not commit adultery, steal, tell false witness, […]
