About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

The Miracle Of The Donkey And Colt
John 12:14-15 'And Jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written, Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.'
This is the fulfillment of Zechariah's prophecy in Zechariah 9:9. Notice how specific Zechariah's prophecy is and how exactly it was fulfilled. Zechariah prophesied Jesus not only riding an ass, but also a colt (unbroken), the foal of an ass. Zechariah also mentioned the people rejoicing greatly and shouting which certainly came to pass on this day.
All four gospels include a triumphal entry, but only Matthew records a donkey with a colt. A simple explanation to a...
I WRITE A LOT ABOUT FALSE RELIGIONS AND IT SHOULD BE TALKED ABOUT MUCH MORE THAN IT IS. THERE ARE A LOT OF RELIGIONS THAT FALL INTO THIS CATEGORY BUT FOR NOW, LET'S LOOK AT THE JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES. WHEN YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN THE TRINITY OR THAT JESUS IS GOD, WHEN THE BIBLE CLEARLY SAYS HE IS, (JOHN 1:1-14), THAT CLEARLY IS A FALSE RELIGION. AND, AS FAR AS I CAN FIND OUT, WHEN THEY DO BELIEVE THAT THE ARCHANGEL MICHAEL WAS THE ONLY THING THAT GOD CREATED PERSONALLY AND MICHAEL CREATED EVERYTHING ELSE, I CONSIDER THESE PEOPLE FALSE PROPHETS IN A FALSE RELIGION.
How To Experience Eternal Life Today
John 17:3 'And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.'
In order to fully understand what eternal life is, it is helpful to understand what it is not. Eternal life is not living forever. Everyone lives forever in either heaven or hell. Also, eternal life is not living forever in the blessings of heaven as opposed to being tormented in hell.
John 3:36 and 5:24 show that eternal life is a present tense possession of the believer.
Here, Jesus defines eternal life as knowing God the Father and Jesus Christ.
As we have already discussed, the word 'know' is...
ALZHEIMER'S, DON'T LET SATAN ROB YOU
SINCE NOVEMBER IS ALMOST HERE I THOUGHT I WOULD REMIND YOU THAT NOVEMBER IS NATIONAL ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE AWARENESS AND CAREGIVER'S MONTH. PRESIDENT REAGAN DESIGNATED NOVEMBER BACK IN 1983. AT THAT TIME, FEWER THAN TWO MILLION AMERICANS HAD ALZHEIMER'S BUT IT HAS SOARED TO OVER FIVE MILLION TODAY. BECAUSE OF THIS, I DECIDED TO USE THIS MESSAGE TO BRING SOME AWARENESS TO THE DISEASE.
Rejoice In The Lord - Always
John 16:33 'These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.'
The world experiences joy and happiness in direct proportion to their circumstances. Bad circumstances produce depression and sorrow, while good circumstances produce joy and peace. That's bondage, and does not have to be the case for a Christian. Our joy is not dependent on things, but rather on the person of Jesus Christ. He is our peace and joy.
The way we take advantage of this joy and peace in the midst of tribulation, is to have our minds and hearts stayed on things...
HOW ABOUT YOU? WOULD JESUS HAVE APPROVED OF SOME OF THE THINGS YOU DID IF HE HAD SEEN YOU OR HEARD SOME OF THE THOUGHT YOU HAD? HE DID, YOU KNOW? THAT IS WHY WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT THESE THINGS. IF YOU ARE DOING SOMETHING YOU SHOULDN'T BE DOING, YOU SHOULD TURN IT OVER TO THE LORD AND ASK HIM TO HELP YOU WITH IT AND HE WILL. 1ST PETER...
Overcome Tribulation
John 16:33 'These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.'
Jesus said we would have tribulation. He did not say that He was the one bringing the tribulation or what the tribulation would be, but He said it would come. Then He made the amazing statement that in the midst of tribulation we were to be of good cheer.
Tribulations exist because there is a battle between the kingdom of God and the kingdom of the devil. When we operate in faith, God is able to grant us such victory that we are actually better off because of the battle. It's just...
