Peter tells us, that as believers, we are “pilgrims and strangers” on this earth. The word “stranger” has the idea of a person who lives for an extended time in a land that is not his own. He is there long enough to need a house to live in, but he is not a permanent resident. He has no legal rights, he has no social standing. He is a stranger, an exile who lives in a foreign land. The word “pilgrim” has a meaning that is more temporary than the… Read more PILGRIMS AND STRANGERS →

The Lord will one day reveal all things which are done in secret. In Isaiah’s day, there are people who do not love the God who says His name is, “I AM.” Their response is neither fear, obedience, thankfulness, love, or worship. They blatantly disobey His commands. They worship false gods. They live as though God does not exist. They have no excuse. They are descendants of Abraham. Their ancestors have the first-hand experience of being beneficiaries of God’s mighty power and working of wonders. Their feet trod in the… Read more The Lord – He Will Reveal →
What does the term ‘open heaven’ really mean in the Bible? (Flickr / Florin Gorgan) While ministering in Long Island, New York, recently, the Holy Spirit asked me a question right in the middle of worship. “What happened in the Bible when an open heaven occurred?” I thought I knew the answer as I had studied this out a few times before. But instead of thinking I knew it all, I turned to the Holy Spirit and asked Him to show me in the Word of God. I was quickly thrown… Read more What Really Happens in an Open Heaven? →

Many days ago in Detroit, Michigan, the well-known evangelist, Dr. Charles Finney, preached on the text “The blood of Jesus Christ, God’s Son, cleanseth us from all sin” see I John 1:7~. After the service a strange asked Dr. Finney to walk home with him. Advised against it by church officials who knew the man, Dr Finney went with the man. Ushering the preacher into the rear of a building, the stranger locked the door, put the key in his pocket, and said, “Don’t be afraid. I’m not going… Read more NOTHING BUT THE BLOOD OF JESUS →

Romans 3:8 And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just. Paul did not believe that we should do evil that good may come. Those who so accused him were slandering him. What passage of Scripture would teach that the end justifies the means? Surely we ought to be able to find the idea taught in Scripture if it is correct? Where is it taught? The problem with this idea is that… Read more Shall We Do Evil That Good May Come? →
