Pt 1: But As For Me

Jeramie does a wonderful exposition of Psalm 73, bringing out the heart of Asaph, the writer of this Psalm, when he had seen the “prosperity of the wicked“. “But as for me“! Psalm 73:1–6 1 Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart. 2 But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped. 3 For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. 4 For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm. 5 They are not in…

Good For Nothing

Good For Nothing Jeremiah 13:1–11 1 Thus saith the LORD unto me, Go and get thee a linen girdle, and put it upon thy loins, and put it not in water. 2 So I got a girdle according to the word of the LORD, and put it on my loins. 3 And the word of the LORD came unto me the second time, saying, 4 Take the girdle that thou hast got, which is upon thy loins, and arise, go to Euphrates, and hide it there in a hole of the…

Lives have been transformed by the Lord across the world for near two thousand years. Real people with real lives have gone from darkness to light in their own personal way. With most of these same lives we can all find something to relate to and we hear of their journey to Christ.

The Last Trump

The Last Trump

The final president of the United States, how close it may coincide with looming global financial collapse and the formal formation of the one world government? It will not surprise me to occur at the hand of this new president.

Remembrance Day, But Have We Forgotten?

Remembrance Day, a day in which we call to mind those who paid the ultimate price for the liberties we have enjoyed, but for far too long we seem to have forgotten why the price was paid, how it was gained and what this world truly has to offer.
Vaccinated against Division

Vaccinated Against Division

Vaccinated Against Division 1 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, 2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; 3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all,…
False Teachers

“I Have Not Sent Them”

I Have Not Sent Them Are All Pastors Sent By God? I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied. Jeremiah 23:21 It was ancient Babylon that the idea of the infallibility of the priest was first identified.

Sadly, the idea that a priest, prophet, king or…
