Liberalism and the Church
Liberalism is bad in politics and is even worst in church. Liberalism is the idea that the next new thing is the best thing. Liberalism is the enemy of all orthodoxy, of dogma, of sound doctrine and good theology. I heard a very famous preacher saying that he does not like to start his talks […]

Is God’s Kingdom Already Here? Part 4
I end this article series with this thought; the heart of what should be our focus before we even get into the trying to reach out to the lost. Acts 2:42 tells us, “And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.” (NKJV) What good […]

Is God’s Kingdom Already Here? Part 3
I know that my prosperity Gospel brothers and sisters will not agree with this, but these are the days where we will endure suffering. We must prepare God’s people to suffer so that they not lose hope when hard times come. Paul explained this way in 2 Timothy 2:12, “If we endure, We shall also […]

Is God’s Kingdom Already Here? Part 2
Before going any further, let me take something out of the way, right away. If someone feels that the kingdom of God is already here in its full manifestation, I should ask, are you saying that we are in the millennium already? Did the rapture already take place? I do not argue that God’s […]

Is God’s Kingdom Already Here?

Preachers Not Motivational Speakers
What a delight is to listen to God’s voice directly in our secret places! That should be our priority. How beautiful is to hear brothers and sisters share a true message from God! How satisfying is to hear a teacher who clearly reveals the mysteries of the Word, those things that nobody considers and the […]

Augustine Conversion According to The Confessions of St. Augustine
Augustine was blessed with a mother who was a prayer warrior. Through all of Augustine’s rebelliousness, resistance to God, placing emphasis on philosophy, joining a false religion and issues with sexual immorality, she prayed him through. At last, Augustine seemed interested in spiritual things, however he joined a sect with a form of Godliness […]

Can I get a Witness? Can I get an Amen? What About if You Just Preach the WORD
I am getting old; with only a few weeks away from my 48th birthday I am noticing that certain things are irritating me more than what they used to. The styles of preaching or, I should say, the insisting on preaching in certain style, is irritating to me. I feel that it takes away […]

I remember those dark days! Every day I felt the weight of depression; every day I felt pain pushing deep into my wound. But how amazing is my God! He surely healed me from all of my afflictions; the afflictions that life gave me, the afflictions that came from the evil one and yes, the […]
