Our God is a good God. You know, there is no bad in God, and there is no good in the devil. Jesus said, "The thief comes to kill, steal and destroy. I have come that they might have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." (John 10:10).

Get Blessed!

michael — Sat, 03 Feb 2007 06:51:24 +0000

"... knowing that you were called for this purpose, that you may inherit a blessing. " (1 Peter 3:9)

It is really important to God that YOU inherit a blessing! Its not something to be ashamed of or to apologize for. On the contrary, it is central to God's purpose for your life! The Scriptures declare it, and so when you as one of God's people are blessed, then God Himself is glorified.

God wants you to be blessed, even in ways you have never known before. We can get more of an idea of God's purpose when we consider one of the main reasons Jesus died on the cross and suffered for us. read more »

How to Get Free

FIRST THINGS FIRST!

1. You must be truly born again! This takes place when God's spirit convinces you of the reality of Jesus Christ and you respond to God, saying in effect, "Yes, I was wrong. I need you as my Savior and I want you as my Lord. I'm deeply sorry for the way I have lived without you. But now, I give my life to you. Come into me, Lord Jesus." Without the foundation of a true born-again experience all attempts to break free of satanic influence are ultimately doomed. read more »

The Nature of God

The Issue of Worship

In the previous lesson we saw that the Bible is God’s word to us and speaks with the authority of God to us regarding many things. One of the most important revelations we can receive from the Bible is the character of God. The Bible tells us what God is like - his attributes, his ways in dealing with mankind, his heart. Our traditions, preconceptions, experiences and reasonings do not always tell us the truth about God. The Bible does however. read more »

Weapons of Our Warfare

michael — Tue, 06 Feb 2007 05:49:22 +0000

"For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought
into captivity to the obedience of Christ". (2 Corinthians 10:4,5)

The apostle Paul here states that we are engaged in a warfare, and that we have weapons with which we must fight. As Paul states in Ephesians 6:12, our fight is not with flesh and blood, with people, but with the host of demons that work to defile, destroy, harrass, tempt and enslave mankind. read more »

Our Mission as Christians - Evangelism, Discipling, Teaching and Loving

michael — Mon, 12 Feb 2007 14:37:01 +0000

Introduction

The time has come in our series of lessons to consider carefully the main purpose which God has for leaving us here on earth after we are saved. If you think about it carefully, you will realise that we can know God better in heaven than here on earth. The praise and worship is better in heaven, the presence of God is stronger, the blessings are greater. So why has God left us on earth? The reason is this: to bring others to a saving knowledge of God. read more »

On Christian Contemporary Music and Christian Rock

michael — Sat, 03 Mar 2007 07:22:04 +0000

"The disciple is not above His Lord. If we want the joy of Christ, we must do what Christ did. For Him, satisfaction was not the result of finding some Christian pleasure to compete with the world's pleasure. It was not a question of being entertained by church performances instead of secular performances. Christ does not compete by promising a religious equivalent of what the world offers, pleasure for pleasure. It is completely different. The pleasure of Christ is the will of God and its enactment. read more »

The Passage the Devil wanted out of your Bible

michael — Wed, 28 Feb 2007 11:16:15 +0000

There are plenty of Bible-believing evangelicals and fundamentalists who say they believe the Word of God, but sadly you'll not find nearly as many who believe the words of Mark 16:15-20. Some people stop at verse 15 in their believing, some at verse 16 but if it really is the Word of God, God wants us to believe it all, right up to the end of verse 20. read more »
