Do You Have an All-Surpassing Desire for God?!
What is Love? I don't believe love is just doing the right thing. I don't believe love is just keeping commandments. I don't believe love is just being patient and kind... That's what love looks like when it walks and talks. But that's not love! Love is passion! Let me ask you a question, do you have a passion for God?! Do you desire him? Do you long for Him? Yes we all go through times in which our hearts are dull. ...

Reasons Why Michael Jackson’s Life & Death Matter
Last week, Tim Challies, posted a blog article concerning Michael Jackson, his life, legacy and death. Tim opened his article with this, So the king is dead. What a sad end to a sad life; a pathetic end to a pathetic life (by which I mean to use pathetic in its true sense as “arousing pity and sympathy). I don’t know that I have ever seen, in one man, such a combination of self-love and self-loathing, ...

Rallying to Understand and Battle Sin.
In a strange and wonderful irony, the greatest problem on Earth is resolved by the greatest reality in Heaven. Sin—it is the poisonous nature of humanity. The depth and breadth of sin is evident everywhere in our world. It is the fundamental principle in every person and the driving momentum of every society. From our first parents in Eden to infants drawing their first breath this day, every human is infected with sin's rebellion against God ...

Because of Cowardice and Self-Preservation!
My mother passed away last year. And I remember three years ago, I went to the doctors office with her because she thought that something's not right. And that doctor, very gentle, very noble, he looked at my mother, "Ms. Washer, you've got cancer." And he goes, "It's radical, and it's bad and we've gotta move right now if we're gonna have any chance in saving your life." I want you to know that man ...

Battle Against Sexual Sin for the Joy of His Salvation
Yesterday, in the previous post I mentioned that I am receiving a season of Chastisement from God. In plainer words, what I mean with that is that as per God's sovereignty over all things, as He has allowed me in His good purpose to fall into sin, even as horrifying as it is to be left to my own devices, by His grace He is drawing me out from it. All of which is to ...

What Will You Tell Me If I Had a Brain Tumor?
Just a while ago, as I was browsing around my Facebook page, I saw Susan Yesner and Doug Eaton post the same video from YouTube. A video with the title: "Shocking Message to Pastors & Churches." I watched it and re-posted it as soon as I was done. In an understatement I would say that it is not only shocking but very, very much sobering as well. Below are my comments on the video, and my ...

God Will Not Throw Away His Jewels!
"Lord, I believe---help my unbelief!" ---Mark 9:24 Lord, I see---but enlighten my darkness! Lord, I hear---but cure my deafness! Lord, I move---but quicken my dullness! Lord, I desire---but help my unwillingness! Wherever sin proves hateful---it shall not prove hurtful. What an apology does a sorrowful Savior make for His sleeping saints! "The spirit is willing---but the flesh is weak!" Take a carnal man, and what he can do---that he will not do. Take a Christian man, and what he would do---that he cannot ...

Sean Penn, Homosexuality and Same-Sex Marriage.
Recently at the Academy Awards, Sean Penn was Awarded as the best actor in his performance in the movie Milk. The movie Milk, for those of you not familiar, is an adaptation of Harvey Milk's life. In essence it was one of the pivotal events that led to the "open acceptance" of homosexuality in the United States of America. httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhJOT7CHO94 I wonder how the majority of the Christian world would respond to the statements made by Mr. ...

Why Should We Pray? Why Pray at All?
It is my last work to try to show WHY THIS PRIVILEGE SHOULD BE SO OBTAINED. This extraordinary power of prayer—why is it given to those who abide in Christ? May what I have to say encourage you to make the glorious attempt to win this pearl of great price! Why is it, that by abiding in Christ and having His Words abide in us, we get to this liberty and prevalence in prayer?I answer, ...
