Although this is quite funny, it represents a belief that many people seriously hold to, which for me gives it a tinge of great sadness. It seems like many believers think of God as a kind of ‘Santa Claus’ figure, who ‘benevolently’ hands out health and wealth, according to whether you have been ‘naughty or […]
Did you know? We must ALL worship the Lord our God and serve ONLY Him, ALL the time! ‘Of course’, you might say, ‘that’s true and I believe it’; yet many of us even as believers will inadvertently put people, things and/or situations before Him, almost daily. We must continue to fight our flesh, which […]
You might not believe me, but I HAVE been enlightened… by the Light of the world! It’s all thanks to God that I do not follow the way of the Buddha anymore, for I discovered by His great mercy that that way eventually leads to destruction. No, don’t shake your head… you must please take […]
You have all heard what He said, brethren! “Love your neighbour as yourself”. Before He went to His cross, He gave us a new commandment, which was to love each other. Yes; just as He has loved us, so He wants us to love each other! That is no small thing. One of His last […]

For all his faults, I also like this quote from Martin Luther, the great reformer of the church a few hundred years ago. He stated that a truly saving faith is, “a living, creative, active and powerful thing, this faith. Faith cannot help doing good works constantly. It doesn’t stop to ask if good works […]
I’ve recently had a few encounters with some believers who think it’s fine to hurl ‘masked’ insults and threaten me and others with hell (unless we bend to repenting of what they believe is a sin), and it usually comes packaged with no gentleness or humility at all in their speeches and instead slams people […]
To all believers, either young or old in the faith, I exhort and remind you all that just as when we FIRST accepted Christ Jesus as our Lord, with that deserved passion and zeal we had for realising His incredible sacrifice on our behalf, we must always from then on continue to stand firm in […]
One of my friends said this on his recent video: “If you are happy all the time then you are of the devil” A commenter on his video who disagreed with him replied his assertion with this: “Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice.” – Philippians 4:4 I thought some people might […]
