Forgiveness

Forgiveness is like a refreshing stream for the soul 

It's a stream it's refreshing when it flows

To be forgiven, you need to forgive

To receive you have to give

Same is true for love and mercy too

The measure you use

It will be measured unto you.

Eternal security: Truth or a Lie

  Eternal security, aTruth or a Lie   Why is it an important doctrine, as it can lead to someone taking lightly biblical warnings about sin and the devil. If one is an overcomer and one believes in eternal security, it is not dangerous to him because he is having a genuine faith. It however matters what you believe if you are teaching others which can cause them to take salvation for granted by practicing a sinful lifestyle.  Many who believe in eternal security quote the following verse Romans 8: 38 And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love . Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[b] neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love.   Response:  Nothing can separate us from the love of God except our own will and sin ! Our own will chose salvation. Our own will, will lead to separation and rejection .  2 Timothy 2: 11-13  11 It is a trustworth...

Truth Vs Lie   I have noticed over the last 38 years especially amongst  Christians  there is a lot of “ white” lies and half truths .

Biblical marriage.

Many churches have conformed to the world’s perspective on marriage and divorce. In today’s culture marriage is not a covenant until death do us apart. People try to find “just causes” and “reasons” to divorce their spouses. In the scripture divorce is unacceptable to God. He in fact hates it. Marriage is for life. It’s not easy to be married to a difficult person which is why we have to be careful who we choose to marry. But once we are married to that person it’s a relationship for life. Until death separates us. Here are some scriptures that make this very clear. We can choose to ignore it; find people who agree with us, go to churches that turn a blind eye to our disobedience but one day we will stand before God and answer him for the lives we have lived. Marriage a union established by God. “And He answered and said, “Have you not read that He who created them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be jo...
