Do I have to forgive and do I have to reconcile? As Christ-followers these are questions we must face and deal with, if not there could be serious consequences. What is forgiveness? Scripture states: Forgiveness, according to the Bible, is correctly understood as God's promise not to count our sins against us. Biblical forgiveness requires repentance … Continue reading FORGIVENESS

This is about the fifth article I have written in the past few months and this one I hope to publish. I have been in a slump. Not just in my studying, writing, and publishing articles but in many aspects of my life. I have pondered, rationalized, wondered, and sometimes ignored the thought of what … Continue reading Slump

Do you ever wonder why so many people dislike Christians or even hate us or our Christian beliefs? Do you ever wonder why so many people call Christians hypocrites? I use to wonder, but not anymore. To find the answer, all I had to do was open my eyes to what is going on within … Continue reading REPRESENTING CHRISTIANITY

Are you steadfast in your faith? Why and how are we to be steadfast in our life as a Christian? When we find answers to those questions, we will then be able to test ourselves (as we are told to do in 2 Corinthians. 13:5) to see if we are really steadfast, luke warm or … Continue reading STEADFAST IN YOUR FAITH

No one ever told me that and no advice was given to me about the dangers of looking back. I use to think and believe that looking back was great. I could remember all the fun things I did as a kid and in my wild days. Those times were great and exciting, even sometimes … Continue reading Don’t Look Back!

NOTE TO CHRISTIANS: As Christians we are called to be the best possible Christ-followers, best citizens of the community and the best examples of what a Christ-follower is. We are to do the best we can to measure up to what Jesus calls us to do and be. We are to do this because we … Continue reading NOTE TO CHRISTIANS

After I committed a sin the other day it hit me, why do I sin when I know it is wrong, I don’t want to, sometimes I am able to resist but many times I sin anyway and ignore the consequences. I am not going to say “to be truthful” because I heard someone comment … Continue reading Why do I sin?
