Surrendering to the Lordship of Jesus Christ
War is Coming
By Justin Edwards I wrote the following paper in 2005 and believe it holds even more significance today as we are ever closer to all out war in the Middle East. Since 2005, Russian aggression, confidence, and relations with Islamic nations has increased; Iran and Syria have strengthened their war pacts; the 2006 Lebanon War […]

We Never Outgrow Our Need for the Gospel

Comments Off on We Never Outgrow Our Need for the Gospel
From Tullian Tchividjian’s new book, Surprised by Grace: God’s Relentless Pursuit of Rebels I once assumed the gospel was simply what non-Christians must believe in order to be saved, but after they believe it, they advance to deeper theological waters. Jonah helped me realize that the gospel isn’t the first step in a stairway of […]

Comments Off on My Desire
By Justin Edwards What is our purpose? What are we here for? I believe when one comes to understand this fundamental truth, they will be ready to fulfill all the good things God has intended for them according to His will. Ephesians 2:10 says, For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good […]

For if these thing be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. (2 Peter 1:8) If we desire to glorify our Lord by fruitfulness, we must have certain things within us; for nothing can come out of us which […]

Comments Off on A Salvation That Really Saves
By Mike Ratliff For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should […]

Allah is Not Jehovah God

Comments Off on Allah is Not Jehovah God
By Joseph Chambers There is a dangerous and unfounded effort by many church leaders to equate Jehovah God of Holy Scripture with Allah, the god of the Islamic religion. Such extreme ecumenicalism is not just plain wrong; it is totally unfair to Bible-believing Christians around the world. It is also unfair to millions of Arab […]

Comments Off on Do Not Let Sin Reign in Your Mortal Body – Part 2
By Justin Edwards In Part 1 of his series on Romans 6:11-14, John Piper explained the seditious power of sin able to take our God-given desires captive and turns our bodies into instruments of unrighteousness. Sin succeeds by corrupting our desires and deceitfully makes them appear compelling and rewarding. These desires then lie to us […]

Beyond a Doubt: Contemplative Spirituality = New Age Movement

Comments Off on Beyond a Doubt: Contemplative Spirituality = New Age Movement
By Ray Yungen Before writing my book, A Time of Departing, I made sure I could prove, beyond a doubt, that contemplative prayer had not only slipped into the Christian faith, but also prove it is an integral part of the New Age movement. In fact, New Agers see contemplative prayer as one of their […]

Comments Off on Do Not Let Sin Reign in Your Mortal Body – Part 1
By Justin Edwards As blood-bought believers in Jesus Christ, we have power over the sin that once enslaved us. We are charged to no longer let sin reign in our mortal bodies. The following 2-part series by John Piper gives us a clear message on the reign of sin and the reign of God. There […]

Got Yoke?
May 18, 2010
By Justin Edwards There is not one living person who does not have a yoke. One either has the yoke of Christ, or a burdensome yoke of the world. Jesus says in Matthew 11:28-30: 28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take My […]
