Consider the power and majesty of Jesus Christ, even in the destruction of sinners. We read in Hebrews 1:3 that Jesus upholds “all things by the word of His power”. Whether stars or planets, lillies or lions, oceans or snow flakes, gasses or stones, angels or demons, or humans, the Lord Jesus Christ holds it […]

A few weeks ago I had the privilege to attend the 2014 Shepherd’s Conference and visit The Master’s Seminary in Los Angeles.

Christmas is here again, which means most of us will be gathered with friends and family for one or more days over the next week. Ironically for many Christians, we do not take advantage of this time to speak of the most important thing we could ever speak of – salvation through Jesus Christ. A […]

Comments Off on The Philippian Jailer’s Belief
Free-gracers readily point to the salvation of the Philippian jailer (Acts 16:25-40) as a proof text for their easy-believism doctrine. But notice what Acts 16:31-32 says after the jailer trembled and asked how he could be saved: They said, ‘Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.’ 32 And […]
