I truly believe we are in that time and one of the things that is getting so many off the Word of God is simply following one’s feelings instead of the Bible.  People are identifying not by biology or genetics, but by how they feel!   Please don’t mistake me, God has feelings (see Hebrews 4:15) and gave you feelings, but He never intended for you to live by them!  If you don’t believe that, simply and solely live by your feelings for one solid month. I will gladly then visit you in jail! Let feelings in your car, just...

We live in a society that worships our feelings!  I recently read a very eye opening letter from a very famous Christian songwriter and worship leader in the music arena.  In this letter, he openly discussed how he was feeling and as a result, was walking away from Jesus and Christianity. All because he was following how he felt and not what the Bible says.   Over the past years I have watched pastors, leaders and entire denominations walk away from the Word of God simply based on what they presently feel!   Approximately two thousand years ago Paul by the...

In 36 years of ministry I have seen so many people try to overcome addiction through new year’s resolutions or mental toughness.  God never intended for you to do this alone! Please remember “Three Overcome Outlines”: Never overcome through self-effort.  Always overcome through Spirit empowerment.You must make the decision, then expect God to provide the provision.Obedience is our job.  Outcome is God’s job. Last week I began sharing “Four De-hooked Dynamics”: Run…from sin (II Tim. 2:22).   The Bible says here, “Flee also youthful lusts; but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.”  Notice...

The Bible tells us, “He heweth him down cedars, and taketh the cypress and the oak, which he strengthens for himself among the trees of the forest; he plans an ash, and the rain doth nourish it.  Then shall it be for a man to burn; for he will take thereof, and warm himself; yes, he kindles it and bakes bread; yea, he makes a god and worshippeth it; he makes it a graven image, and falls down thereto.  He burns part thereof in the fire; with part thereof he eats flesh; he roasts roast, and is satisfied: yes, he...

A couple of summers ago at about 9:00 pm, I hooked into a monster shark from the shore.  It took me up and down the beach! I would reel it in to about 20 yards from the shore and then it would take off hundreds of yards from the shore.  After a while, it would come back in and I would think I had the shark landed. Then it would take off again a great distance from shore. It literally took me six hours to get this shark all the way in! When I first hooked the shark,...
