The Lord's Supper and The Passover
March 18, 2002
According to Christ, His last supper (what Paul calls "the Lord's supper" - 1Co 11:20) was "the Passover" (Mat 26:18) and "as oft as (he) kept it" was once a year.
The sum of your word is truth (Psa 119:160 ESV); How precious are your thoughts t... [read more]

What is Grace and Its Purpose?
[Posted July 6, 2006]
Understanding grace is only for those who "Do His will" (Joh 7:17). What sometimes comes up missing in the teaching of the doctrine of grace is the understanding that is imparted to us in Titus 2:11 and 12. Grace teaches [paideuo, Strong's #381... [read more]

You asked about Paul's thorn in the flesh. Here is that scripture:
2Co 12:7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.
2Co 12:8 For thi... [read more]

I have posted an article entitled After The Counsel Of His Own Will. The title is taken from Eph 1:11, which says that all things are done after the counsel of God's own will. This is in accord with all other scriptures, like Rom 9:16: ... It is not of him who wills, nor of him who races, but of God... [read more]

Just wanted to share this one. This man asked me if he should keep going to church. Exactly what you have foretold is true. I was told to leave in a nice way. I spoke of what I saw. The pastor and his wife thought that I was against them, which is not so at all. I simply would not c... [read more]

There is a very fine line between realizing the need to 'die daily' as we grow from 'babes' (nepios) to adults (huios), as we graduate from 'milk' to 'strong meat,' and at the same time always be aware that it is ALL the Lord's doing and nothing of ourselves.

You asked about Joh 11:26:
Joh 11:26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

Joh 6:63 I t is the spirit that quickeneth [ gives life]; the flesh profitet... [read more]

Patriotism is idolatry. Here are Christ's words concerning patriotism and pledging allegiance to the flag and any and all such idols. If we really mean what we say when we pledge allegiance, we of necessity place an idol between us and our God to who we truly owe our allegiance:
