David’s Song
2 Samuel 22:31 “This God—his way is perfect; the word of the Lord proves true; he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.” I am thankful for those Christians who have been through very great trials and have come out the other side magnifying and praising God. Those are the people…

Only One Way?
Isaiah 30:21 “This is the way, walk in it.” One of the most vehement objections I’ve heard to the gospel is against the claim that it is the only way to eternal life. I’ve seen people react as if they were offended by such a claim, e.g., “How dare you say that there is only one…

Gotta Serve Somebody
1 Samuel 30:11-14 “They found an Egyptian in the open country and brought him to David. And they gave him bread and he ate. They gave him water to drink, and they gave him a piece of a cake of figs and two clusters of raisins. And when he had eaten, his spirit revived, for he had…

A True Jesus or a False
Revelation 22:13 “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.” I listened to a testimony today of a man and his wife who had come out of a false teaching ministry. It was a very popular ministry in the Word of Faith movement. There are many such preachers…

Drawing Near to God
James 4:8 “Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you.” How close are you to God? How close do you want to be? The verse above instructs us of a simple truth – if we draw near to Him, He will draw near to us. So how, exactly, does one do this? …

Deceptive Identities
2 Corinthians 11:13-15 “For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as servants of righteousness.” Identity. It’s such a critical issue and fundamental to life itself. Throughout history many people have tried…

Is there a better way?
John 21:6 “He said to them, ‘Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.’ So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in, because of the quantity of fish.” Have you ever thought about how little you really know about just about anything? The way…

To All People Everywhere!
Acts 17:30-31 “The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent, because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed; and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead.” To hear some people talk, it would seem that Christianity…

Strong Delusion
2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 “The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. Therefore, God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false, in order that…

But is it true?
John 17:17 “Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth.” So, where do you go to keep yourself informed these days? Who are you listening to? Do you find it frustrating that if you switch from Fox News to CNN it seems that there are two completely different accounts of reality? We hear the…
