The tragedy this past weekend in Tucson, Arizona is a grim reminder that we live in a fallen world. This young killer took the lives of at least six people including a 9 year old girl and five others. He also wounded many and has totally turned up side down the lives of many families. This senseless killing has affected our nation and everyone is looking for answers. They will never know what went through this killers mind that brought him to this point. I heard many accusations being brought forward but no one has pointed to the real reason these things happen in our world.
The real reason is that we live in a fallen world brought on by mans SIN. When God created this world it was perfect and without pain and suffering. But when Adam sinned, death, pain, and anguish came into our perfect world and corrupted it. This corruption has continued ever since as we witness on a daily basis. This corruption will continue until Jesus creates a new heaven and earth. We need to pray for the families who have been affected by this tragedy as well as for our country. As we get closer to Jesus return, things are going to go from bad to worse. Don't wait until it is too late to give your life to Jesus as your Lord and Savior. You don't want to be left behind when Jesus takes His church out of here.
Romans; 10: 9-10
(that is you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.)
God Bless You!

Jesus The True Shepherd!
John;10:4
And when he brings out his sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.
Jesus use this illustration when addressing the Jewish leaders. He told them that He is the true Shepherd and that His sheep know His voice and they won't follow a stranger because they don't know his voice. We are the sheep of His pasture if we truly belong to Him. If you know Jesus as your Lord and Savior you should be able to determine His voice from that of the false teachers. How can you be sure to know His voice? Are you spending time in prayer talking to Him? Do you spend time in the Word every day? If you do, then you should be in tune to know Jesus voice from that of the enemy.
Jesus warns us that in the end times, there will be many false teachers. We are to discern truth from the lie. The only way you'll know for certain what's true and what's not is to be studying His Word every day. You need to know who Jesus is so you aren't deceived when the enemy comes claiming to have the truth. Spend time in the Word every day so you really get to know who Jesus is, and then you'll know it's Him when He calls His sheep.
God Bless You!

Are You Ready?
Matthew; 25:13
"Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
Many people through the ages have tried to predict when Jesus would return only to be mistaken. Jesus told the disciples that no one knows the hour except the Father who is in Heaven. So we are instructed to be ready at all times because we just don't know when Jesus will return. We are told that it will be just like it was before the flood.
Matthew; 24:38-39
For as the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
They were just living their lives without any concern. Noah tried to warn them but they refused to heed the warning. Not so much unlike today!
As believers, we are to be ready at all times. Are you ready? You can be ready, all you have to do is ask Jesus for forgiveness of your sins and invite Him into your heart as Lord and Savior. Jesus has already paid the price for your and my sins when He died on the cross. Payment was paid in full. He paid the price of sin which is death, and now you need to do your part. It's a free gift from God. You can't earn it by good works or anything else. The pardon is there for the taking, but you must accept it. Just pray and be sincere about wanting Jesus to forgive you and save you.
No matter what you may have been taught, there is only one way to heaven and that is through Jesus Christ. The Scriptures point this out in many places so don't be deceived by false teachers.
Acts;4:12
Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.
God Bless You!

50 Years Of Destructive Decisions!
Isaiah; 5:20 Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
The fourth woe condemned the reversal of morality which dominated the nation. They utterly confused all moral distinction. Let's go back to the late sixties. This is when America started through the sexual revolution. Sex within the marriage was no longer the norm. God has created sex and He said it is to be within the marriage between a husband and wife. So here is one place where we have gone against God's Command.
No-fault divorce! In the seventies was when this policy was implemented. When a couple didn't find answers to their problems within the marriage, it was no longer a problem to dissolve the marriage. As a result of this policy, divorces became the norm. It is very hard to find someone who hasn't been divorced anymore. God tells us that the two will become one flesh, but we have gone against what God had created.
Abortion! Roe vs Wade instituted anytime abortion for any reason. Since this went into effect in America, we have killed tens of millions of innocent lives (babies). God gives life and we killing them. This is such a huge disgrace for America. How can we as a nation expect God to bless us when we are killing innocent babies. Disobeying God's Commands.
Homosexuality and Same Sex Marriages! Here is another out right disobedience to God. God condemns homosexuality in all forms and we have written laws to protect it as well as encourage it. In our schools the children are being taught that it is an alternate lifestyle. That is a big lie coming from satan. God says it's an abomination to Him. Disobedience to God's Command.
Separation Of Church And State! The beginning of forcing God Out Of America. As a nation, we have not only been disobedient to God our creator, but we are doing everything to get rid of Him in all public facilities and Gov offices. Our nation was founded on Judeo-Christian belief. We were prospering thanks to Gods' blessings in America. Everything we were involved in turn out great for our nation because we were doing our best to obey Gods commands. When this nation turned it's back on God, things started to deteriorate.
There's still hope for our nation, but not without God as the central focus. If we want our nation to continue, we had better start praying for forgiveness and then being obedient to God.

Pharisees And The Law!
Mark; 2:17 When Jesus heard it, He said to them, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance."
Jesus had gone to Levi's house to eat and there were tax collectors and sinners there also. They were just having dinner when some scribes and Pharisees saw them eating. They confronted His disciples and ask why Jesus was eating with sinners and tax collectors? The Pharisees were the religious elite dealt with legal matters pertaining to the law. They so esteemed the "letter" of the law of Moses (more so than the "spirit" of the law), and so esteemed the oral traditions that were said to have sprung from the law, that they developed strict applications of the law for everyday life. When Jesus heard them comment about Him eating with sinners, He corrected them and told them He came to save the unrighteous. Maybe you don't think you are unrighteous, but the Scriptures say that none are righteous no not one. Everyone of us is a sinner and thus unrighteous. When you repent of your sins and ask Jesus into your life, He washes you clean of all unrighteousness. He is the only way to be saved from your sins and inherit eternal life. Eternal life is in Jesus and no one else. If you are putting your faith in anyone besides Jesus, you are not going to spend eternity with God but will spend it in the Lake of Fire.
God can save you but you must come to Him for forgiveness of sins. The penalty of sin is death and separation from God through all of eternity. Eternal life is the free gift from God through Jesus Christ and Him only. You must repent and come to Him to get that gift. He is waiting for you to come but the decision is yours to make.
John'3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.
God Bless You!

Are You Wasting Your Time?
Matthew; 7:6 (Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces.)
Now what is being said here? When you are witnessing, you must make a judgment call. Is this person open to hearing the truth from God's Word or do they just want to be argumentative. Under Mosaic Law, dogs and swine are unclean animals. Here this refers to wicked people. So what are we to do when we encounter these type of people?
When we meet people who treat God's truths with contempt and all they want to do is be abusive and or violent, we are not under any obligation to continue to share the gospel with them. Now this does require some spiritual discernment and we need to ask God for wisdom when dealing with this person. Only God knows the heart of man so prayer will be in order. After you have shared the gospel with this person and they just want to blaspheme the Word of God, then it would appear you are wasting your time with them. What you have told them about God, they then become responsible themselves with what they know.
2Peter; 2:21 (For it would have better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn away from the holy commandment delivered to them.)
If you are spending time witnessing to a person who is obstinate, give them the gospel and move on to someone else. Spending to much time with argumentative people results in lost labor. Move on to the person who is ripe for the seed to be planted and having a heart that is open to hear the Word. We obey God by planting the Word and then God causes the growth.

Eternal Life, Do You Know God?
If you were to ask someone what is eternal life, most likely they would tell you that it is spending eternity in heaven with God. That is true but Scriptures has much more to say about eternal life. As a result of Jesus work of redemption at the cross, God has given His Son authority over all mankind. This authority entitled Him to give eternal life to those whom the Father had given Him. God offers salvation to anyone who would receive Jesus Christ. There is no one who can not be saved by trusting Jesus as Lord and Savior. All souls will live eternally, but only those who have accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior will spend it with Him. The rest will spend it in the Lake of Fire that was prepared for the devil and his demons.
John 17:3 ( And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. )
Eternal life is knowing God. How do we learn about God? We do it by studying His Word. Without know who God is and what He has done for you, you wouldn't know that eternal life was in Jesus the Son.
John; 3:16 (For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.)
It's not just about head knowledge of who Jesus is, it's about having a personal relationship with Him as your Lord and Savior. It's you realizing you're a sinner and in need of a Savior. Then you repent and tell Jesus you're sorry for your sins and ask Him to forgive you and save you. Tell Him you want Him to be Lord of your life.
Without Jesus, there is no eternal life!
1John; 5:11-12 (And this is the testimony; that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life, he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.)
John wrote these things so that those of us who believe in the Son of God, may know that we have eternal life. Also, that we may continue to believe in the Son of God. It's a continual abiding in Him and Him in us. Without Jesus, we can do nothing to save ourselves. He gave His life on the cross to pay the price for our sins. He is the only way to the Father.
John; 14:6 (Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.)
Give your life to Jesus today and have life abundantly.

Do You Know God?
Do you know God? I don't mean that you know of God or that you know He exist. You may have gone to church since you were a child or been raised in Christian family. Maybe you were sprinkled at birth or dedicated when you were a baby. Having said all of this, do you really know God in a personal way? Have you ever acknowledged to God that you are a sinner and you are in need of a Savior? God wants us to love Him as He loves us. He wants that personal relationship with you and wants you to become part of His family.
For you to have that relationship with God, you must have your sins washed away by the blood of Jesus. You must ask Jesus to forgive you of your sins and be your Lord and Savior. Maybe you feel you have committed such horrible sins that you don't think God will forgive you. Jesus tells us that all who come to Him, none will be cast away. The Bible says that Jesus died for the sins of the world and that means yours and mine. God will forgive you if you are sincere when you ask Him. You may still have to pay consequences for your sins here on earth, but you have the confidence that God has forgiven you completely.
Psalms;103:12 (As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us.)
If you're walking around with the burden of sin weighing heavy on you, come to Jesus for forgiveness. When Jesus comes into your life, you become a new creation in Jesus. Your old man is done away with and you have a new nature. Yes, you still have a sin nature, but now you have the Holy Spirit dwelling in you to give you the power over sin. You are no longer a slave to sin, you can say NO! Jesus loves you and wants to save you but you must come to Him. He won't force you to come, it must be you acting upon the calling from the Holy Spirit. Don't say no to God anymore, come to Jesus today.
God Bless You!

Why Are American School Children falling Behind World?
I heard in the news this morning that American school children are falling behind all of the civilized worlds school children. They gave their solution blaming it on everything except the fact that America has allowed a few psychologist to tell them how they should raise their children. I have a different solution to the problem that is drastically different from theirs. We should follow Gods commands on raising them seeing as how He is the creator of all human life. Who would know better on how we should raise our children that God?
Proverbs;22:15 (Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child; The rod of correction will drive it far from him.)
Moral corruption of the family unit is a major problem. Satan has beat down the institution of marriage that God instituted at the beginning. How corrupt is it? We have legalized abortion which is killing a human life. We have legalized same sex marriage which is absolutely against Gods laws. We have made sexual intercourse as though everyone married or not should be doing it. . We have put it into a woman's minds that they are not complete unless they have some high paying job outside the home. Now we have children who are basically raising themselves. Children are not learning from their parents but instead are learning from society which says "if it feels good do it."
We took discipline away from the parents, the schools and the legal system. Now we wonder why we are having unruly, ruthless children. Parents have quit going to church and their children are not learning about God and His laws for living. A very small percentage of American families go to church on a regular basis. Our children are not learning how to live a productive life that pleasing to God..
Proverbs;22:6 (Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.)
So what or who is the answer? God is the answer! Our society is a mess because of our neglect to obey God and His ordinances. God told Israel that if they would just obey Him, things would go better for them. They refused to obey as we have and we are suffering the consequences of being disobedient. Our children are suffering because of OUR disobedience to God. We need to repent and ask for forgiveness and return to God. It's that simple and each one of us must do their part or we are doomed to destruction as a family and a country.

Are You Forgiving Others?
Matthew; 6:14
("For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.)
Not always easy, is it? Everyone of us has had someone say or do something that has hurt us or angered us. Our first response is usually in the flesh and we want revenge. But God says we need to forgive others and allow Him to deal with them. At times I think I have forgiven someone when in fact I'm still holding a grudge. It usually doesn't take long and I'll say something and I'll suddenly realize I haven't really forgiven that person. We always need to turn it over to God and ask Him to help us forgive people who hurt us. If we just allow God to work in our lives, He'll change us to become more like His Son, Jesus Christ, who forgave all of our sins. We are to confess our sins daily in order to obtain a day to day cleansing. If we say we don't sin, we are just fooling ourselves.
1John; 1:8
(If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.)
God Bless You!
