He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? Micah 6:8

warning

Warning Against False Teachers
3 As I urged you when I was going to Macedonia, remain at Ephesus so that you may charge certain persons not to teach any different doctrine, 4nor to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies, which promote speculations rather than the stewardship from God that is by faith. 5The aim of our charge is love that issues from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith. 6Certain persons, by swerving from these, have wandered away into vain discussion, 7desiring to be teachers of the law, without understanding either what they are saying or the things about which they make confident assertions.
8Now we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully, 9understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers, 10the sexually immoral, men who practice homosexuality, enslavers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine, 11in accordance with the gospel of the glory of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted.

ask!


Goodness, I’m listening to a preacher (Mike Fabarez) talk about how Jesus was preaching on a hill about how to pray. He goes into how most of us will start adding all these exceptions. He said ‘stop it’. Jesus said that we have a God who will give us what we ask for. Quit worrying and start praying!

stand up

When you read something that you know to be error or false - please correct the error.



Don't let falsehood go unchallenged. (The Pope did not say this - ever.)

  • It is necessary to believe in God. 

  • There is no good person. 
  •  
  • The traditional notion of God is not out-dated.

  • You do need to go to church. 

  • You do need to give money.

  • Nature is not the church. 

  • The last one is just wrong in so many ways. Anyone can say they are a Christian.

If you read the Bible, if you ask God to send His Holy Spirit to you to help you interpret the Bible, then you won't believe false words.

Right away, when this graphic said you don't have to believe in God to be a good person . . . that triggered a response in me right away because I know what Jesus said - "There is no good person except God."

Read your Bible. Go to church. Find people who will encourage an equip you.

Discover God! Stay immersed within God.

our friend

Many of you know Cari. (She brought me back to Christ.) Well, last week Cari died. I've been watching the posts on Facebook from friends and family and almost everyone one of the posts mentions Jesus. He is the love of her life. Today I came across a post from someone I wasn't expecting. I'm posting that post here for all of you to see.
