Do You Believe?
Mark 16:17 “These miraculous signs will accompany those who believe: They will cast out demons in my name, and they will speak in new languages. 18 They will be able to handle snakes with safety, and if they drink anything poisonous, it won’t hurt them…”
“These miraculous signs will accompany those who believe…” [with emphasis]. The Bible does not say that the miraculous signs will accompany those that are in doubt or those that are afraid. You have to hinge your confidence on Jesus and in the Word of God. Read the rest of this entry
The Third & Fourth SELF
Rom.5:6 “When we were utterly helpless, Christ came at just the right time and died for us sinners.”
The third thing that needs to be nailed to The Cross is Self-deception. We are masters at deceiving ourselves. In fact people actually begin to believe the lies they are telling. God wants you to stop deceiving yourself because self-deception cannot take you far. Read the rest of this entry

Eph.2:5 “That even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God’s grace that you have been saved!)” [with emphasis]

Isa. 53: 5 “But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed.

John 14:6 “Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.”
I am here to tell you that Jesus is alive. People like to attack Christians because they claim that the Christian way of thinking is too narrow. And their argument is – how can there be only one way to God? Pay attention to what I am about to say next; it helped me and it will set you free. Read the rest of this entry
To You
Gen.18: 14 Is anything too hard for the Lord? I will return about this time next year, and Sarah will have a son.” 15 Sarah was afraid, so she denied it, saying, “I didn’t laugh.” But the Lord said, “No, you did laugh.”
God spoke directly to Sarah and she believed. Heb.11:11 “It was by faith that even Sarah was able to have a child, though she was barren and was too old. She believed that God would keep his promise” [with emphasis]. Read the rest of this entry
