Hebrews 13:13 – Therefore let us go to him outside the camp and bear the reproach he endured.

20 Nov 2022 Michael A

The following brief commentary is on Hebrews 13:13 – “Therefore let us go to him outside the camp and bear the reproach he endured.” Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp – As if we were going forth with him when he was led away to be crucified. He was put to death as a malefactor. He was the object of contempt and scorn. He was held up to derision, and was taunted and reviled on his way to the place of death, and even on the cross. To be identified with him there; to follow him; to sympathize with him; to be regarded as his friend, would have subjected one to similar shame and reproach…. [This intro is most of Barnes’ commentary; John Gill’s Exposition of the Bible is also included in this post. Together, they provide better understanding]

Pastor Confronts Phoenix Mayor and City Council

16 Nov 2022 Michael A

In the 2-minute, 30-second video of this post, Pastor Jeff Durbin of Apologia Church was confronting Phoenix mayor and city council about their session wherein they sought to ignore a law calling for the protection of the unborn. Durbin compared their actions to those who opposed the Christian abolitionists because they couldn’t give up slavery, therefore, not wanting to offer “our Black brothers and sisters” protection under the law – this is a sterling example for all Christians about standing for Christ regarding issues currently on the forefront of the culture wars

Saving Faith – Counterfeits By A. W. Pink

16 Nov 2022 Michael A

There is a faith that seems genuine but that has no saving power. This post contains an 8-minute excerpt of a 32-minute A W Pink which provides some specific points that may help you ascertain the quality of your own faith.

The 32-minute reading is also included, as well as highlight points on the 8-minute excerpt.

Giving Place to the Devil – A. W. Pink / Studies in the Scriptures / Christian Audio Books

12 Nov 2022 Michael A

Arthur Walkington Pink (1886-1952) was an evangelist and Biblical scholar. The video below is a reading from his Studies in the Scriptures. While taking notes on the video and transcribing them, I noticed that A W Pink took many biblical warnings, admonitions, encouragements… and organized them for those who sincerely desire to understand how they are failing to walk in obedience. He focused mostly on how a believer leaves himself open to the assaults of the devil – giving place to the devil as it is put in scripture. And his points thoroughly cover the topic

Trendy Christians Err Greatly

11 Nov 2022 Michael A

This post contains the Evening portion of C H Spurgeon’s Morning and Evening Thoughts for November 10. His words are very needful to the contemporary church because these words reveal their betrayal of Him, whom they falsely profess to be their Master. If you are struggling to carry your cross because it is so difficult due to the maltreatment from the world, then Spurgeon’s words will encourage and comfort you, as this message is woven throughout the Bible. Jesus stated it often, see John 15:18-27 for one example, other texts referenced in the post.

What Truth Underlies The Pro-Choice Stance?

10 Nov 2022 Michael A

This video does a good job revealing the cloud of Satanic deception over this nation. Using scripture and imagery that portray real events, the vlogger opposed secular pro-abortion arguments. Although the video takes a strong stance against abortion, and other addictions, I am sure that John Henry, and pastors Baucham and MacArthur believe that there is forgiveness for repented sin with God. So, the chief message is that the rampant sin in this society is Satanic deception; and that one might escape the bondage of such deception by turning to God, repenting of and forsaking sin.

The Conditions of Power in Prayer – Charles Spurgeon

10 Nov 2022 Michael A

This post contains a C H Spurgeon sermon on prayer: there is a 14-minute excerpt on a sermon point that will give you insight into the quality of your own faith regarding prayer. Spurgeon talked about prayer in terms of the relationship of a child to his earthly father; his examples were the best I’ve heard in terms of revealing one’s faith. If you desire to have answered prayers…and to grow in faith and love of God, then you will certainly benefit from hearing what he said. The entire sermon is also posted herein, and I highly recommend it, as the excerpt only covers one sermon point.
