Make Christianity Illegal in America!

by PH

What if a law passed that made Christian worship illegal in America? What if they imprisoned those who would break this law? That means a criminal record on our file – which will affect our future job choices and credit ratings, etc. Would we risk being imprisoned and still gather for worship secretly – such […]

Shortening the Adolescent Years

by PH

It takes some adolescents longer than others to realize their foolish ways. I’ve seen some 25 year olds who are still rebellious, but then I’ve seen some 15 year olds who learned wisdom. Some people never get out of their adolescent years. Never learning responsibility and consequences of their actions. But when we finally get […]

Smart vs. Love

by PH

Who would you rather be? The world’s smartest person or the world’s most loving person? Things that come with being the smartest: Lots of money. Recognition. Comfortable life. Power (control). Pride. Things that come with being the most loving: Lots of heartaches. Sacrifice. Poverty. Weakness. Humility. But consider this question: Who do you appreciate and […]

Really giving it to God!

by PH

Good morning everyone, 1 Corinthians 13:5-Love…..It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; I think we all realize that to bring a resolution to an argument, at least one of the people involved must not “insist on it’s own way”. But that can be very difficult. Because to argue […]

Lost in Transition?

by PH

Talking with young adults regarding some of the teachings of the Bible, I could detect some frustrations. Nothing seems to be clear cut. For example, when can we know for sure that we are saved? One of the sources of frustration and difficulty in understanding the Bible is the “already-but-not-yet” concept we find in it. […]

Our Loves

by PH

How do you really feel about Jesus? Admiration? Reverence? Apathy? Love? I’m ashamed to admit how often I forget the most important thing in life. The very purpose for which I’m created. That is to love Jesus with all my heart! “The Lord says: These people come near to me with their mouth and honor […]

As One devotional-In a struggle with a lie

by LD

Good morning everyone 1 Corinthians 6:12-"All things are lawful for me," but not all things are helpful. "All things are lawful for me," but I will not be enslaved by anything. I believe one of the greatest strategies that the devil continues to lure us through is by his promise in the garden of Eden, […]

12.21.12 – The End of the World

by PH

We live in a bubble. Browsing Facebook confirms this. The Bible says people will be eating and drinking and being merry when the earth will be laid to waste. "See, the Lord is going to lay waste the earth and devastate it; he will ruin its face and scatter its inhabitants…. The earth will be […]

As One devotional-guided like Jesus

by LD

Good morning everyone, Matthew 14:23-And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone, There are times when you look back on situations you had previously been through, and it was that situation that helped you get through the new challenge. […]
