Trans Movement and Christianity: The Root Cause of Enmity

21 Apr 2023 Michael A

In the 12-minute video of this post, vlogger, Colin Miller discusses Tucker Carlson’s statements about the Nashville shooting of 6 Christians by a trans person. Tucker’s assessment of the conflict that exists between the trans movement and Christians was spot on; Miller merely added to it and framed it in a biblical manner. This video is being posted because it is how biblical Christians need to see the problem; then they will have to admit that there is a conflict and can begin considering strategies.

They Put A “Christian Transgender” on MSNBC

The following video is from the YouTube site, Fight For Truth. I’m posting the video because his assessment is biblical and Christians need to hear some straight talk on the matter.

C H Spurgeon’s Morning and Evening Thoughts for April 14

14 Apr 2023 Michael A

Again, when I went to my E-sword pc Bible program, the following devotional opened before me and I read it to my blessing. Both messages are great; but the second one speaks specific encouragement for times such as this: I posted earlier today, a video about the globalist agenda, how the one-world order is crystallizing before our eyes. The second message below is comforting in light of these developments; it is also comforting for all conditions a believer might experience: cancer, Covid19….

We Blunder and Stumble in our Holiest Endeavors – J. R. Miller (Christian devotional)

8 Apr 2023 Michael A

This brief devotional will give you some clarity about what God would have you doing with your life. To be more specific, and to summarize Miller’s words: God has placed you in a specific place, amid a specific group of people, with specific needs…; He has given you talents, interests, abilities… that He expects you to use to SERVE those around you…. J R Miller states that message in a pleasing and kind manner. His words will help you to see and act on those little specific things all around you. [After publishing this post I discovered shorts by MacArthur and Baucham that apply to the matter discussed by Miller, these were added under the Miller video]

Psalm 9 and the Antithesis – Pastor Patrick Hines Podcast

7 Apr 2023 Michael A

My last three posts are about events that are presently unfolding in our society; the two posts on Curtis Bowers’ Agenda Weekly, touched on the topic of the Nashville shooting by identifying underlying factors. This post explains the “antitheses” more specifically, using Psalm 9. An overview and some discussion points are precede his podcast.

C H Spurgeon’s Morning and Evening Thoughts for April 6

6 Apr 2023 Michael A

Spurgeon’s devotional, Morning and Evening, is very relevant to my last 3 posts and to the one I am working on for tomorrow, so I am posting it now. His perspective is biblical, but different from the others; therein you might also see the timeless relevance of God’s truth, as Spurgeon died over a century ago: his words are a call to Christians right now, today. I certainly needed to hear them, I hope you benefit from reading them also.

Just Like Abraham – Pastor Patrick Ramsey

3 Apr 2023 Michael A

The sermon in this post by Pastor Ramsey, examines Paul’s arguments for justification by faith in Galatians 3: 6-9. Understanding this material is foundational to your Christian walk, particularly because the doctrines in this text are largely misunderstood by the contemporary church. To put it differently, if you do not understand the contents of this portion of scripture, then you will not be able to identify when you are committing the spiritually fatal error of seeking to be made right with God by works, instead of by faith. Pastor Ramsey clearly presents Paul’s arguments; thereby arming readers to more easily see their own errors; to throw off such idolatry, via depending upon the Lord in prayer….

The Cost of Standing for Christ

24 Mar 2023 Michael A

In the following video, vlogger John Henry showed numerous examples of Christian persecution that have recently occurred in North America. He also shared clips of pastors MacArthur and Baucham talking about persecution and why it happens. MacArthur noted that approximately 160 thousand Christians die from persecution every year since the 1990s. I recently posted a video on that which is linked near the end of this post.

John Newton – I am Sure I Cannot Endure to the End! (Christian devotional)

19 Mar 2023 Michael A

There are two 4-minute devotionals in this post by Rev. John Newton; each, talks about a different aspect of the believer’s helplessness apart from the upholding loving care of the Lord Jesus Christ. I am posting them because in my own life I have seen that it is very difficult to walk with the Lord by faith instead of my own fleshly strength; I believe that many other Christians also struggle with this condition. I am sure that the Holy Spirit has revealed this to me in all of my failings. Have you seen this problem in your own walk? If not, then these devotionals may provide a few necessary clues….

Am I Right With God – Pastor Patrick Hines

2 Mar 2023 Michael A

The 1-minute video of this post provides foundational biblical information via which one can assess his walk with God; that is, are you coming by faith or by works. Many Christians are coming to God via works and will end in hell. This is a follow-up post to the most recent post by Pastor Ramsey on Faith. There are links herein, to hear Ramsey’s sermons on Faith and Works; also links to Hines’ and Ramsey’s Sermon Audio sermon pages. I noticed that Pastor Hines also has some very relevant recent sermons on this topic.
