God punishes All Sin

God is just and always punishes sin. Though controversial, this is a truth that gives me assurance that I am going to heaven. Sure it sounds like it would do anything but give me assurance and by itself, God’s wrath shouldn’t give me assurance of heaven but in reality, it brings a feeling of peace […]

Quit sniveling you Hypocrites!

On the dawn of a new year, I felt inspired to write a compelling message about the one thing that continues to separate us from God, the most disgusting thing on the planet, sin. More importantly, I am targeting the hypocrites among us, you know the ones who run around complaining that God overlooks them, […]

Christian, not Religious

“Nothing will drive you to hell faster than religion!” Our church’s senior pastor was quite precise about the fact too many church goers attend only Christmas and Easter services and fool themselves into a false sense of spiritual security. The fact is these same folks are the ones who give Christianity a bad name. These […]

What God wants for Christmas

With Christmas only one week away you would think all my shopping would be done– Wrong! I’m one of those clueless people who wait until the last minute to buy Christmas gifts often walking away empty handed, seems everyone looks for the same things and by the time I get around to the mall, everything […]

From Milk to Cookies

Earlier this week my wife Elizabeth and I celebrated our second wedding anniversary. We decided to make it a special day even though our special day fell on a Tuesday so we went on a date to Clearwater Beach, where we were married on December 6, 2003. Since I first met my darling wife I […]

Satanists are ferocious lost sheep

Discussing Satanism before, during and following our apologetics class today I am shamed to admit I once looked into choosing Satan as my God. Clue less as to what I was getting myself into, I remember going out to buy a satanic bible. A quick review of the blasphemous book convinced me Satanism was not […]

Arguing with Christ

Who doesn’t like a good argument? Me that’s who! It seems God wired me to be opinionated but left out the ability to enjoy the sheer pleasure of argument. Personally, I just hate arguing… This morning my wife Elizabeth and I disagreed on something and our discussion quickly morphed from pleasant to chaotic. As we […]

Clipping coupons for the Lord

“Hey! Listen to this! You know that extra sharp cheese we like? One dollar off! And we’re already saving at least twenty bucks with all these coupons. Praise the Lord!” I hear this almost every Sunday as my wife Elizabeth crawls out from a mogul of newspaper ads wedged between the living room couches. You […]

How to Resist Sin and Win the Race

“Winners never quit and quitters never win!” Sounds like an easy formula right? So are so many around us seem to be quitting the race toward heaven rather then speed up building up eternal momentum? Because they give in to temptation brought on by the devil, they give in to sin! More powerful than any […]

Armed Christian ready to defend themselves

Elizabeth, Grace and I just got back from a business trip to Chicago where we came close to getting mugged, twice in one day. Not that racism has anything to do with this sequence of events, but it is troubling to realize that in both instances, the would be assailants were of African American descent. […]
