There are times when we look at unbelievers, and we think, Why don’t they get it? We hear what they say, especially after some truth has been “clearly” laid out in front of them, and their rejection just seems mind-boggling. Why don’t they see what we see? Why don’t they understand the Word of God […]
What the Bible (and History) Actually Says About the Messiah
I read a comment the other day that laid out a very detailed list on what the Jewish Messiah was supposed to be and do, and then made the claim that Jesus didn’t meet those qualifications. It was well said, however, it was a little misleading. I’m not sure if it was unintentional (I’d like […]
Why the Best Argument Isn’t Always the Truth
The world has always seemingly thrived on a good debate. One person wins, another loses—one point-of-view or truth reigns supreme while another cowers in the shadows from the humiliating defeat. Though one-on-one debates have been around since time began, that doesn’t mean the debates themselves are the best of things. That definitely doesn’t mean that […]
How Early Is the New Testament, Really?
If you spend any time in comment sections of any video or article about the reliability of the Bible, you’ve probably seen claims like this: “The New Testament wasn’t written until way later,” or “Most of it wasn’t confirmed before 100 AD,” which is usually followed up by something like, “It’s all made up.” It […]
What Does Pride Look Like
Pride goes before the fall, even if you don’t know it’s pride. Many times we do things or walk in things or fall for a trap because we simply don’t know. We’re ignorant. We’ve been deceived. It happens. In fact, it happens to everyone. No one is excluded. We can all join this club. It’s […]
The Problem With The Passion
It seems like one of the trendiest translations around is the Passion Translations. However, like most things, Christians will gobble up anything that has the label “Christian” slapped on it (not you though), without even verifying if it actually is. That may sound harsh or overstated, but it’s true. Most people have no clue about […]
The Christian’s Authority Over Demonic Powers
One of the central teachings of Christianity is the authority that believers have in Christ over demonic powers. This authority is not based on human strength, wisdom, or anything that any human has done, but on the victory that Jesus Christ achieved through His death and resurrection. Understanding and exercising this authority is crucial for […]
The Nature of Demonic Possession On Places
Haunted houses, real haunted houses, not the ones that pop up at Halloween, are not places to play around and take your fancy electronics to test the atmosphere. In fact, anyone that is not covered by the blood of Jesus is opening themselves up to potential demonic harassment or even possession by trying to interact […]
The Truth About Haunted Houses
Are Haunted Houses Real? A Christian Perspective It’s October which means it’s time for Spirit Halloween stores to start rising from the dead. It also means that haunted houses and scary hayrides are going to start populating cities across America. While there are these haunted houses that are put on my people every Halloween season, […]
Overcoming Fear In Witnessing
Many people have an apprehension about witnessing, even though they have the best message in the entire world. You may be one of them. Because of this fear, many flat-out refuse to share the great God that we so proudly praise on Sunday mornings. It’s a little easier to talk about God, praise God, and […]
