THE BIBLE IS THE BENEFACTOR OF THE FEMALE SEX »

Woman’s virtue, dignity, honor, and happiness, are nowhere safe but under the protection of the Word of God. The Bible is the benefactor of the female sex. Beneath this protection they are secure in their rights, their dignity, and their peace. It is their vine and fig tree, under which in calm repose they may enjoy […]

THE CONSECRATED MAN »

Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate. (1 Timothy 6:17-18) Every child of God is a […]

SAFE WAYS »

He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered. (Proverbs 28:26) Do what God tells you, as God tells you, and because God tells you, and no hurt can come to you. The Lord told Mose to take by the tail the serpent from which he fled. […]

THE GUMBY DOCTRINE »

By Stephen M “For the time will come when they will not endure the sound doctrine; but, having itching ears, will heap to themselves teachers after their own lusts;”  2 Timothy 4:3 Twist, stretch and reform seems to be how many churches and leaders are treating the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. The truth […]

FALSE PROPHETS ARE DECEPTIVE »

“Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves.” (Matthew 7:15) False prophets are most dangerous because of their deceptive nature.

SLOW LEARNERS »

So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. (Philippians 2:1-2) You and I are neither the Alpha nor Omega to the law, […]

THE NARROW GATE »

“Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.” (Matthew 7:13-14) Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount has been […]

CHRIST’S AUTHORITY »

Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers. (Titus 1:9) The sole authority of Jesus Christ in all respects must be maintained rigorously, but churches are very apt to be guided by something else. Some would have us […]

CHRIST IS THE HEAD »

And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. (Colossians 1:18) Since Christ is the head of his body, the church, he alone can determine doctrines for her. Nothing is to be received as divinely warranted except […]
