How do we get to heaven?
Is it possible to go to heaven, or have eternal life with God, by following our conscience? Can an atheist, or a member of a non christian religion have eternal life, according to the Holy Bible, and the words of Christ? Many would think so, and apparently the Pope is among them. I have …
How do we see God?
How should we view God? Does it make any difference how we see or perceive him? I certainly think it does. If we think we know who God is, yet do not understand his true character, then we may find we are worshiping a false god, and …
The wages of sin is Death.
Daily we sin, and daily we are forgiven. Daily we fall, and daily we are lifted up. Daily we come short of the mark, and daily we are helped and guided toward it. Lets remember that each day, a born again Christian, is washed clean by the blood of our Lord Jesus. None of us …
Some promises of God.
All the good promises of God are ours, by accepting Jesus as or Lord and Savior. 2 Corinthians 1: 20 For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us. Romans 8 : 31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for …
Why did God respect Abel’s offering and not Cain’s?
The Bible says God had respect to Abel’s offering of the firstling of his flock, but had not respect to the offering of Cain when he offered the fruit of the ground. Why would God make such a distinction? It might appear as if God is not just, and arbitrarily chooses to have respect or …
Does God reward our good behavior, and punish our bad behavior?
I still find myself, at times, stumbling over that stumbling stone, the grace of Jesus. Why would a Christian say such a thing? A Christian can backslide by abandoning his or her morals, and getting caught up in the world, and the lust of the flesh. A Christian can also backslide by abandoning the righteousness …
God is not punishing sinners at this time.
God is not judging and condemning people or nations for their sins at this time. I recently heard a preacher on the radio state, if God does not punish the United States for its sins, he owes Sodom and Gomorrah an apology. People and nations seem to be sinning more openly and brazenly then ever, …
Can being good get us into heaven?
Oprah Denies Jesus Christ – YouTube. Is it possible to enter heaven by being good? Over and over I come across this idea. God would certainly welcome a person who does good, and helps other, into heaven. How could God be just, and keep a good person out of heaven? It would make no sense, …
Serving God and others.
I read in our local Penny Saver recently, the hospital in the area I live in was looking for Chaplin volunteers. I thought this would be a good opportunity to serve, and went over and signed up. I attended three of four, 2 hr mandatory meetings, and finally told the Chaplin I could not continue …
How to become righteous.
The bible speaks a lot about being righteous. But can we be righteous before God? We see a world full of sin and decadence. People are cruel to one another, and the news and TV is often quite depressing. It is easy to look at sin, that we perceive as worse then our own, and …
