Love Your Neighbor As Yourself
For the whole law is fulfilled in one word: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” Galatians 5:14 The heart of Jesus’ message is love. First, we see his love toward us (John 3:16; Romans 5:8 et al). His insistence to his disciples to love your neighbor as yourself is also clear. If we would […]
Abortion Victory is Overdue
A huge abortion victory for the tiniest among us! Courageous lawmakers in Texas passed the most restrictive anti-abortion law in the United States. The legislation was passed in early summer but was immediately challenged by pro-choice groups. A federal judge ruled in favor of the law so the abortion rights activists took their challenge to […]
2 Peter 3:8 One Day is as a Thousand Years?
But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach […]

Doing God’s Will Is Crucial
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the kingdom of heaven—only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven.” Matthew 7:21 It is common to ignore clear Bible teaching on the subject of works. Indeed, works do not save us, and no person can cause God’s indebtedness to […]
What Camp Cannot Do
Christian youth camp is an unparalleled spiritual event for young people. Thousands travel to camps across the world every summer to spend time with other, like-minded youth while growing their faith. A Biblically sound camp is far superior to band camps, football camps, or scout camps. I’ve been involved in camps or retreats for almost […]
