The single chapter epistle of Jude, the brother of James and thus the half-brother of Jesus, was written between 70 and 80 A.D., and it is quite a charge that false doctrines had permeated the church in such a relatively short time. You will note that both Peter and Jude describe doctrinal deviations that had invaded the body of believers in the churches that had been established. False prophets and false teachers were constantly mentioned in the letters of the Apostle Paul as well. Thus, Jude’s change of purpose of his epistle to that of concern for the ongoing of...

p>It is natural and normal for people to reject the Christian faith. Moreover, the Bible isn’t shy about telling us that.Courtesy of Robin SchumacherRegarding the gospel message, Paul says: “Jews ask for signs and Greeks search for wisdom; but we preach Christ crucified, to Jews a stumbling block and to Gentiles foolishness” (1 Cor. 1:22-23).To the Jews back then, a crucified Messiah was a contradiction in terms and still is today. To everyone else, the gospel literally sounds ‘moronic’; the Greek term Paul uses (mória) for ‘foolishness’ is where we get our word for ‘moron’. But the Bible also tells...

For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. ( Romans 5:11)Romans chapter Five is one of those places in the Bible which “established (me) in Righteousness”(Isaiah 54). I had a very finely tuned conscience, I was keenly aware of the “sinfulness of (my) sin” and needed constant reinforcement of the assurance of salvation. I needed to know that in spite of my sins, I was right with God. How can a righteous and Holy God accept a grievous sinner such...

In the latest military incident, Israel struck an Iranian-backed weapons facility and military positions in Syria today. The missile strike south of Damascus reportedly killed five Iranian fighters and...

On Monday, my brother Ron will undergo cardiac bypass surgery. He is 84, and it was just discovered that he has this blockage. He is rather active, and the doctors were amazed that he has been getting around as well as he does, so my hopes are high. But, of course, God's will be done.

My dear friends, in light of lawless leftist and godless oppression by the lawless and godless oppressors; who are anti-authority to the bone (Jude 1:10); our ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS LOVING Creator; who so loved the WORLD, truly ETERNALLY cares and desires none to die in their trespasses and sins! He cries out today to an EXPONENTIALLY lawless and fallen socially oppressed people and world; look to Me and be delivered; whatever your color, whatever your race; be ye delivered (Matt. 18:11, Luke 19:10, John 3:16-17, 1 Tim. 2:2-3, 1 John 4:10)! My friends, I do not know how to say anything...

What must I do to be saved? Some people ask this question, and it must be answered! Have you ever heard someone say they are a Born Again Christian? Do you know what it means to be "Born Again"? The Bible says, "John 3:1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: Jn 3:2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Jn 3:3 Jesus...

King David lived a thousand years before the coming of Jesus, the Messiah, of which He was an anti-type. The Spirit of Messiah gave him this prophecy of the Cross to foretell the sufferings of Messiah and the glory that shall follow.My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring? O my God, I cry in the day time, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.(Psalm 22:1-2)WHY? The Righteous sufferer cries out, in a state of utter dereliction. Abandoned...

For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: (I Peter 3:18)We have had a very basic look at the Law of God, the Ten Commandments. God has given us his Law, and it is holy, Just and Good. But we have all failed to keep it in perfection. The law is beautiful as an instruction, and as a Revelation of God. It is also a look at what we were actually created to be like. The...

What is the faith we proclaim? Christ died for our sins and rose again. Who is Christ? He is God's only begotten Son, the Chosen One, the Anointed. What is the one road to Heaven? Christ alone through faith alone. The road to Heaven is Christ Himself (Jn. 14:6).  There is no other way (Jn. 3:18, 3:36; 8:24; 10:9; Acts 4:12; 16:30–31; Rm. 6:23; 1 Tim. 2:5–6; 1 Jn. 5:11–12; cf. Mt. 7:13–14; 11:27).  The only reason you can have eternal life is because Christ died for your sins and rose again.  And that atonement is applied to your...
