The Gospel of Jesus Christ is simple. In fact, when you think about it, it’s VERY simple! Just say yes to Jesus, give Him ALL your sins after saying you’re sorry and it’s DONE! You’re now on your way to heaven and everlasting life with God. No earning brownie points or merit badges. No doing countless penances or whipping your body in a monastery. You don’t even have to keep saying “please” and “thank you” and open the door forĀ little old ladies. Continue reading
Are Some Folks Predestined For Hell?
28 JulNot too long ago I lost a friend over a doctrinal difference. I had met this girl on the internet when she responded to my post about Mormonism in a Christian forum. Turned out that she lived only a few miles from me. We started instant messaging and she told me that she used to be Mormon and is now a born again Christian. So, I asked her if she would like to help me witness to some Mormon elders who were coming to my home to present their gospel. She accepted and we had a very good time and showed these young men from the Scriptures that there is only ONE God ever in existence and that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is VERY different from the gospel according to Joseph Smith.

Does God Smile Upon Rain Dances?
23 JulHave you ever wondered how God must feel about the different world religions? I’m not just referring to Hinduism or Buddhism, although I did ponder a bit at all the religious icons and decorations when I was in a Chinese restaurant the other day. How about the “religion” of the natives in remote countries who believe certain animals or foods are sacred and have miraculous properties? Who paint their faces, cut their bodies, act like warriors and perform bloody rituals to appease the gods? Who believe that man can return after he dies, even as an insect? Continue reading
There’s A Hair In My Wonton Soup!
20 JulYesterday my wife and I went out to a Chinese restaurant in between doctor appointments. We had been there several times before and have always liked it. They serve those all you can eat buffets. They also have this beautiful water fountain that people toss coins in. A few minutes after we filled up our plates with fried rice, chicken, clams, noodles, etc, etc, I was looking at all the elaborate Chinese decorations and was feeling inspired to write a post about how God must view the different world religions.

Many Are Following the Cults!
19 JulHelp, MY Church Is Dead!
18 JulMy wife is a born again Christian raised in the Bible Belt South in a city that has more Baptist churches than all other denominations combined. For years she went to Sunday school and got baptized while a young teen. So, why does she attend a Mormon church? Continue reading
Dead Churches/Dead Christians
14 JulWe were never meant to be pew warmers. To just sit passively in church one day a week and act as if we scored another brownie point with God. Then sin like heck Monday through Saturday and even on the way home from church on Sunday. I remember growing up attending the local Catholic church. Many later comers word sit in the very back on folding metal chairs and sneak out early. Even my own cousins were guilty of this. Yet they acted as if by just being there God was pleased.
