To Vote or Not to Vote

Dene McGriff of The Tribulation Network has written an excellent article on the subject of whether a Christian should vote. As in most issues in the chrch today there is a growing division between those who claim a dual citizenship and those whose citizenship is in Heaven only. As for me, I have officially declared […]

The Voice: A Reader Comment and Reply

This is a comment I received on a post: The Voice: A New Bible For The New Age, from a gentleman who is an advocate for the new Bible translation, “The Voice”. I might add that the link for Houston Farris goes back to Ecclesia Houston home of Chris Seay, Emerging church leader, and Dave […]

The Cross and Deception

by T. Austin-Sparks The Cross and Deception Reading: 1 Corinthians 1:18-31; 2:1-5. 1 Cor. 1:18: “The word of the cross… is the power of God.” 1 Cor. 1:23,24: “We preach Christ crucified… unto them that are called… Christ the power of God.” 1 Cor. 2:2: “I determined to know nothing among you save Jesus Christ […]

Christ the Power of God

The kinds of Christians that exist in the world occupy two camps: carnal, and spiritual. I will venture to say that we would all be surprised to find that neither could be found where we would probably think, and doing the things we probably guess. If mind and emotion can not fathom the things of […]

The Old Cross and the New

By A.W. Tozer All unannounced and mostly undetected there has come in modern times a new cross into popular evangelical circles. It is like the old cross, but different: the likenesses are superficial; the differences, fundamental. From this new cross has sprung a new philosophy of the Christian life, and from that new philosophy has […]

Where Is The Church Deceived?

There is a lot of buzz on the internet about deception in the Church. We know the world is deceived, but the Church? The Church isn’t supposed to be deceived, after all, isn’t the Church the repository of truth? Isn’t the “lost” being saved from the deception and lies of the world by the Church? […]

The Church, the Threshing Floor, and War

As we make our way through our tour of duty on planet Earth, should we think God is satisfied with our level of “Christian” participation? I think it could be safely said that God is not yet satisfied. What I understand from God’s written message regarding His followers is that there have been, in the […]

Religion: Satan’s Greatest Deception

It has always been a curious thing to me this thing called "religion." I haven't done a study on the number of religions that exist in the world: main line religions, their various branches, sects, cults, and spin offs, but the vastness has to be mind boggling, all claiming to be the truth, lead to […]

A Letter of Explanation Conserning Rick Warren

This is a letter I wrote in response to an e-mail I received from an acquaintance of mine. I have changed the name to protect the person, but the letter carries a lot of what worldly Christians believe about themselves and other Christians. I have decided to post it here because of the many accusations […]

The Gift of Prophetic Insight

I love Tozer, he spoke direct and there were none who could not understand what he was saying. Today he would be called “rude,” brash, intolerant, unkind, unloving, and all the other words used by the Emergent New Age Church to stem the flow of truth. Even the CMA Church I left, Eagle Church in […]
