Whom Have I in Heaven but thee? and there is none upon the earth that I desire besides thee.

MikesChair has a new song called Can’t Take Away about how we can have everything taken from us, but one thing and that one thing is God.
You can take away
Everything that I’ve been holding
You can take away the sun
You can take away the very air that I’ve been breathing
But you can’t take away my God
Oh, [...]

I hear the Savior say, “Thy strength indeed is small;  Child of weakness, watch and pray, Find in Me thine all in all.”
I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast [...]

Can you be yourself?  Or more specifically, can you be yourself in church?  Can you be yourself when you are at work or school?  Can you be yourself in the world in general?  What is your true myself?
Sometimes as Christians we want to be “ourselves”, but we have to be careful, but because who we [...]

Nevertheless to remain in the flesh is more needful for you.  Philippians 1:24
It’s hard to be a Christian if we don’t put others first.  To exemplify Christ and to live a life like him, we must put others first.  Christ did just that.  He put you and me first when he died for us on [...]

Do Christians sin?  Does God command that we do not?  In my own statistical poll many non-church goers claim they avoid the church because the Christian is hypocritical.  They claim that the worst sinnes are found right there in the pew.
Amen brother!
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth [...]

As a Christian do you feel you are missing out?  Perhaps you have friends, family, acquaintances, etc that tell you being a Christian has caused you to miss out on all the fun.  Instead of parties full of beer and drugs on the weekend you spend a few moments at a church bible study, in [...]

One day, when I stand before the throne, I pray that God doesn’t say there is one more, there is another - if only I had told them.  If only I had share with them the free gift of salvation they wouldn’t be destined to eternity away from Christ.
I want you to experience a Christian [...]

I am a Biblical wizard man
The truly scariest false doctrine running around in the world is the Me Doctrine.  This doctrine has as many as several billion interpretations and as many as billions of followers.  The me doctrine is the doctrine that either a) Removes the use of the Bible or b) freely interprets the [...]

Don’t question Calvinism because Romans Chapter 9 says not to
I have seen a common response to those who question extreme Calvinism - they quote Romans chapter 9 to say we are not allowed to question God.
As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.  Romans 9:13
If we want to literally translate [...]

5,4,3,2,1 Here comes God’s hand - JUMP
I have heard an analogy for salvation from several different preachers/pastors/teachers that always seemed odd to me.  I will attempt to paraphrase the analogy…
Salvation is like we are all here on earth in a group, a crowd if you will, and God reaches down and grabs a few of [...]
