Think on these things (Philippians 4:8-9)
First, God heals today, and He still does it miraculously! However, faith healers today are frauds and charlatans! God used man in this miraculous act of His as the Bible was being penned, for the purpose of authenticating the penman was writing for the Author, the Holy Spirit. With that …
Many churches celebrate this coming Sunday as “Palm Sunday.” However, if we follow the biblical account of Jesus being a literal 3 days and 3 nights in the tomb, putting His crucifixion on Wednesday, that makes this coming Friday “Palm Friday.” (John 12)
Funny/sad how the world and carnal believers can easily quote scripture, whenever it excuses their sin. It does not take much reading around their cherry-picked phrases to see how wrong they are. We are to judge, but righteously. Since our righteousness is filthy rags (Isaiah 64:6), we cannot judge righteously …
God the Son, Jesus Christ, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, was given a crown when He went to the cross. This crown was beaten into the Son’s head as mockery by a sin cursed world. In doing so, they were coronating Him to become the Supreme Ruler …

New Zealand, along with countries around the world, has legalized sins that are contrary to God’s Word. Paul listed some of these sins in 2 Timothy 3:1-5 and in 1 Corinthians 6:9-11. Reading through these lists, human nature cringes at some while shrugging off others. However, as God looks upon …
Since there is no sign to look for, we can only speculate from what we have in scripture. Speculation, however, is dangerous and appeals to itching ears and not the soul. We are told in the Bible that society will grow worse and worse by the coming of Christ. However, …
Read 2 Timothy 1:7-9 “God hath not given” means it is not God but Satan who is behind ALL forms of fear, where “fear” is “to lack of mental or moral strength.” Since this is the only place this Greek word for “fear” is used, we take it by definition …
NEW ZEALAND IS STARVING FOR PREACHING, SO LETS KEEP PREACHING AND NOT STORY TELLING We get visitors throughout the year who praise the preaching, and I give God the glory. What is consistently said, as was today, no church in town preaches the Bible. If they get 1 verse they …
