It has been said, “if we ignore or forget our mistakes of the past; we are destined to repeat them.” Many Christians and churches have adopted a form of godliness which denies the existence of the Holy Spirit; and chose to [engage the flesh] in order to promote an agenda [through worldly wisdom and psychology]. With no cultural or ethical beyond what everyone agrees to in the “cultural contract.” Societies are disintegrating into competing collections of ideologically driven camps, each ac...

BE AWARE OF THE FLESH! It has been said, “if we ignore or forget our mistakes of the past; we are destined to repeat them.” Many Christians and churches have adopted a form of godliness which denies the power [Holy Spirit]; and chose to [engage the flesh] in order to promote an agenda [through worldly wisdom and psychology]. With no cultural or ethical beyond what everyone agrees to in the “social contract;” societies are disintegrating into competing collections of ideologically driven ca...

“DON’T BE MISLED” Through social media and other sources many people place their faith in a false gospel and still identify themselves as Christians. The Christian Biblical Worldview has been rejected. Learn here, how Christians can not only see that, but must counter it with the truth of God’s Word! Throughout the book, we’ll come back to the simple principle – that true gospel clarity is the antidote to the rampart confusion of the so-called “new worldview.” The Gospel of Jesus Christ, s...

Paul calls the Galatian Christians foolish! Having begun in the Spirit, are now being perfected by the flesh (see Galatians 3:1-3). Legalism and religion do not trust in the finished work of Christ and the efficacy of His blood to produce His intended results. Therefore, they always appeal to the flesh, teaching to control people through behavior modification, which make those pastors who yield to this model, not shepherds per se, but mere sin managers. The only force capable of restoring ...

IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING IS WRONG – WHY CONTINUE TO TRAIN OTHERS TO DO THE SAME! The Church is not only the community of the redeemed – but also the redeeming community of the lost. We are not only commanded by our Lord and Savior, but also impelled by the indwelling Spirit of God to declare the message of God’s redeeming love and reconciliation in Jesus Christ to all peoples. I see a new apostolic generation rising in the earth today who are radically Christ centered (Acts 1:8). Thi...

IGNORANCE OF GOD’S TRUTH IS NO EXCUSE! We are to glorify God and love Him with all our heart, soul and mind; and love our neighbors as ourselves. As believers, we are to be conduits for the flow of God’s love to other human beings. However, the Christian Community is greatly hindered corporately and individually because of self-love, individualism, spiritual and biblical ignorance. Many Christians look at the truths of God’s Word in an attitude of utter defeat and unbelief. God said this w...

It has often been expressed that the primary leadership of the Reformation [Restoration] did not go far enough in their restoration of the New Testament Church. Martin Luther got it right on how we are saved [justification]. “The just shall live by faith” (Galatians 3:11), was one of the revelatory truths of God’s Word that rallied the Reformers. We praise God for the reformer John Wycliffe who believed that the people should be able to read the Bible in their own language; and by the grac...

THE UNHEALTHY CHURCH CULTURE Many believers are distraught concerning what they witness going on in their local Black churches today. Ezekiel experienced similar conditions in Israel in his day. The Scripture says, the Israelites were still living in sin and trusting in their own righteousness. God told Ezekiel, “And they come to you as people come, and they sit before you as my people, and they hear what you say, but they will not do it, for with lustful talk in their mouths they act; the...

DO NOT BE FOOLED! The Church, the body of Christ, has stood both spiritually and biblically through a long history of effective ministry. Empowered and gifted by the Holy Spirit and the Word of God the local church is still standing! We find the church challenged today by a radically changing time; the Greek “anion” refers to “a period of time.” The Apostle Paul warned of the “Perilous times” to come in the last days: the great rejection of God and the sacrificial offering [blood] that God...
