You've probably heard it said many times that there is no such thing as a carnal minded Christian even to the point of declaring that if a Christian sins He'd better get saved. Perhaps we need to quit talking and listening to each other so much and start reading the Bible and talking to and listening to God! (1Cor. 3:1-3) The apostle Paul called the Christians in the Church at Corinth (V.1) brethren and (V.3) says they are still carnal (human nature with its frailties and passions,). THINK ABOUT [...]

ENVY, STRIFE, DIVISION The objective of these two articles of commentary is to discover #1) (1Cor. 1:10-13 & 3:1-6) the origin of the mind-set that produced denominations and their differences; #2) (2Thess. 3-9) why the church today does not possess the Holy Spirit power exhibited in the early church as described in the Book of Acts; AND: #3) (Rom. 8:9, John 3:3-8, 1Pet. 1:23 & 2Cor. 5:17-21) is it even possible to experience the salvation event through the teaching of some of the modern, (4-30-12), religious organizations, even some [...]

A most dramatic instance of "tongue talking" happened in a Baptist Church in this area that didn't practice "tongue talking". The local churches had recently been defeated in a "wet/dry election and local businesses in the county were going to start selling alcoholic drinks in a few weeks. To save embarrassment I won't name the particular Baptist Church or the county. A stranger, 35 or so years old, showed up one Sunday and quietly took a seat in the back. The service started with the opening prayer and singing. [...]

Most Christians who read this article will not be the same as they were before BECAUSE THEY WILL HAVE A GREATER AWARENESS OF GOD, THEIR LIFE AND THEIR SELF. The KJV Bible is the source. (Deut. 6:16-18 & Matt. 4:7) "Thou shalt not tempt  (Strong's #1598: to test thoroughly) the Lord thy God." This article will address (Acts 5:1-10) in which 2 people tempted the Holy Spirit and paid an awful price as a result of their action. The purpose is to help you avoid tempting the Holy Spirit. [...]

(1Thess. 5:19) “Quench (to extinguish) not the Spirit.” To extinguish means (to put out a fire; to put an end to; to obscure; and to nullify). (1Thess.5:11-23) In this series of scriptures are instructions concerning Christian conduct. The process of quenching is that a Christian can quench (extinguish) the Holy Spirit’s efforts to instruct a Christian to learn, grow, or do a particular job. The sad, sorry result of this is that as the process of quenching is repeated over and over the Christian grows colder and colder toward [...]

Understanding this article is very, very, very critical because it is the thermometer of your Holy Spirit health with God. It is sad to say but many Christians are so "spiritually blind" they would not recognize the Holy Spirit if they ran into Him in a wheelbarrow wreck! (Eph. 4:20-32 esp. V.30) “And grieve (to cause grief and make sad) not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed (to stamp with a mark for security or preservation) unto the day of redemption (ransom in full).” (Eph. 1:12-14) [...]

The eighth paragraph below this one begins the true, terribly true, story of my friend; he and I grew up together, hunted, fished, chased girls, got drunk, laughed and were very, very good friends. I'm not much for big fancy titles but this one is special to me. (2Cor. 6:14-17) (V.14) Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: AND (V.17) "Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord," One of us did and the other one didn't. Blasphemy is (vilification, evil speaking against [...]

NOTE: The first part of this article introduces the reader to the Holy Spirit of truth. The middle part of this article is a revelation of the truth about what is commonly called the "Age of Accountability" you hear preached about, talked about, argued about, but never pinpointed. (Prov. 1:23-33) The last part of this article is a real life event, a true story, a heartrending story this writer participated in, in which a dear friend to three generations of my family  (John 6:44 & 12:32) fought the Holy [...]

I have to introduce you to my Daddy first so you will understand how it was. Please pay attention to the date and God’s numbers in this true story. Yes, I still use the words Mommy and Daddy or Mom and Dad, they are more affectionate and loving than what many parents are called now. Maybe society would be a little better place if some people got back to the old ways. Daddy was a piece of work, very blunt, a hair trigger temper when pushed and it didn’t [...]

I asked the internet; "What is the majority consensus of the Bible scholars as to how many authors wrote the Holy Bible over a period of how many years." I looked over several websites and there were many qualifier words uses such as maybe, could have, possibly, about, it is thought and etc. Some even presented their findings in an argumentative style? The consensus answer I finally arrived at was about forty authors over about 1500 years. After that I asked the internet the definition of theory. One of [...]
