Reflections
Greetings and blessings to all of you. In this crazy world the church is the only thing that make sense even though it is not a perfect institution. I say that because the people you meet in church are followers of Jesus Christ; and Jesus Christ is The Way- The Truth- and The Life. We know that the church is full of sinful people that is why you and I are among them. “They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.” (Mark 2:17) Together, with the Body of Christ we learn about true repentance, co...

Question…Do we say on Sunday something like ‘it is time to go to church” or do we say “it is time to gather with the people of God?” Do you recall how God sees His church; His Body of Believers? Me and You. Even though Jesus was speaking to the Israel nation- the Jewish people- this verse does apply to us also. In First Peter 2:5, 9-10 the Word says, “ You also a living stones are being built up as a spiritual house for a holy priesthood to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ…But...

The Word says in Eph. 5:25-27 “Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word so that he might present the church to himself in splendor without spot or wrinkle or any such thing that she might be holy and without blemish.” After understanding this; it is difficult to hear so many people speak against His church. Some say the church is man’s ideal. Some see the church as people meeting together voluntarily without accountability like in a health c...

The Word says, “For if we died with Him, we will also live with Him; If we endure, we will also reign with Him; if we deny Him, He also will deny us; If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for he cannot deny Himself.” (2 Tim 2:11-13) We serve a God who is Faithful- we need a God like that. While God is a God of Grace- He is also a God of Justice, Holiness and Truth. The God we serve will always be true to his nature, because He is a Faithful God. In this world of weak sentimentalist of the liberal and modernist; we need God who is absolutel...

All goodness has to be compared with God’s goodness, because He is the only one who is absolutely perfect. Because God is Good what He approves of as being good… is good. But then you may say, ‘If God is all that good why is there so much evil and wickedness in the world?’ God is good …people are not. Remember the fall. Sin entered the world when Adam and Eve disobeyed God by eating the forbidden fruit in the Gard...
(Read More) - Published: September 21, 2025Greetings and blessings to all of you. Question…How can a Holy Just God cover our Sins? God will not tolerate sin. He condemns it and demands payment for it. God could not remain a righteous God and compromise with sin. His Holiness and His Justice demanded the death penalty. Think about the sin of David, Abraham, Jacob and now think about yourselves. We may say sin is not that bad- but God said it is very bad, so bad that it demanded the death of His only Son…Jesus Christ. When we sin, we should all get the death penalty. But God is wiser than we are and, in His wisdom, He knew ...

God demonstrated His love for us when He made a provision to forgive sin through the atonement of His Son. “In that while we were still sinners Christ died for us” (Rom. 5:8) In Eph. 2:4 it says, “But God who is rich in mercy because of His great love with which He loved us when we were dead in trespasses made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved).” Since love is an action...know this …It was love that prompted God to fashion a creature in His own image and li...

No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6) Pilate asked the question, “What is Truth?” Many people today are asking, “What is Truth?” In our secular society relativism is everywhere. A well-known author wrote on Objective relativism…or O.R. He said, “It is the view that the beliefs of a person or group of persons are true for them., but not necessarily for others. One persons’ truth which really amounts to opinion can conflict with an...

My conviction has been growing for years that we must recapture the concept of God is Perfect! Got Question.org says, perfect means “without flaw”. God is perfect in every way. He is flawless. In Deut. 32:4 says, “He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is He” The Bible clearly teaches that Christians can never attain perfection in this life. The following verses will help anyone who thinks he can attain ...

We glorify God best by being like Him…The Word says, “You shall Be Holy; For I am Holy” (I Peter 1:16) The attributes of God being Omnipresent, Omniscience, Merciful, Immutable and now…. Our God is a Holy God. The prophet Isaiah exclaimed with distressed in Isaiah 6:5 “Woe is me for I am ruined1 Because I am a man of unclean lips, And I live among a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King the Lord of hosts,” when he was in a vision in the heavens and he saw the Almighty. At that point he recognized and ...
