Opposition
Principalities and powers are real. Just as Jesus opposed Satan, we’re to oppose him. This is not a time for the church to hide – but a time to stand. It seems as though immorality is the only choice today. It’s the mandate of the church to give the world another choice and to stand as defenders of morality.Scripture: Mark 6:24-33, John 9:11-23
God Gives, Religion Takes
The crux of every problem in the Bible was people believing lies. Sarah believed that every time Abraham looked at her he was disappointed in her, so she gave him her maid, the priests believed Jesus was after their kingdom – when He was their kingdom, Esau believed he would die and gave up his birthright.

Chariot of Israel & The Horsemen Thereof

We’re to be an empty vessel, ready for God to fill and use in any way He desires. Our walk is not about gaining a throne – it’s about doing whatever God wants, where He wants it and in…
The Excellence of Christ
Luke wrote his Gospel about the Perfect Man in the midst of the Jewish worldview of “We’re better than everyone else” and the Greek worldview which was self-centered and about man’s wisdom. Both had the same information about God, but having the information is not the same as having the revelation of Him. It’s only through the…
