Steal from them and they will joyfully give you everything they own. Force them to be your slave and they will happily be your servant. Smack them on the nose and they will turn the other cheek again and again. Kill them – it is simply gain. Don’t kill them – they will simply liveContinue reading “An On Fire Christian Can Never Be Stopped”

Romans 1.21
Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. What has led to unrighteousness in the world? Why is the world so wicked? Why does the world ignore the truth of Jesus Christ? Paul gives four clearContinue reading “Romans 1.21”
Romans 1.19
Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. Remembering that our last verse told us the wrath of God was revealed against unrighteousness; and that the wrath of God is the judicial punishment of God – not the violent anger of God, then weContinue reading “Romans 1.19”
Romans 1.15
So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also. I want to show you this verse in a couple of other translations before I dig into it: So I am eager to come to you in Rome, too, to preach the Good News.Continue reading “Romans 1.15”
Romans 1.14
I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise. In the last verse, Paul says that he would not have the church ignorant. That is Paul’s calling – to educate and provide information about grace and faith to the body of Christ. A very highContinue reading “Romans 1.14”
Romans 1.8
First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world. If you were asked right now to pray for your church or to pray for another church or Christian that you know, what would be your opening sentence? What would you start with? IfContinue reading “Romans 1.8”
Hebrews – the Pivotal Epistle (Chuck Missler)
The Epistle to the Hebrews is one of the two greatest theological treatises of the New Testament.1 This letter is, in a real sense, the “Leviticus” of the New Testament, detailing how the Lord Jesus Christ is both the fulfillment and the successor to all that had gone on before. The extreme dilemma of theContinue reading “Hebrews – the Pivotal Epistle (Chuck Missler)”
Run Through Romans (4.14-25)
Now that Paul has shown us through the example of Abraham that there is nothing you need to do to become righteous but simply believe, he decides that it is important to keep emphasizing that it is important to realize that Abraham was made righteous by his faith: 14For if they which are of theContinue reading “Run Through Romans (4.14-25)”
Run Through Romans (4.9-13)
This is some beautiful teaching here from the apostle of grace, Paul: 9Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness. Paul is taking here about the blessedness of not having your sin held against you. As I said inContinue reading “Run Through Romans (4.9-13)”
Run Through Romans (3.22-31)
So far Paul has proved beyond the shadow of a doubt that every human being has the same basic problem: our actions have made us guilty before God. This guilt is called unrighteousness. It means that when we die, we shall be judged by God, found guilty and be sentenced to hell. It also meansContinue reading “Run Through Romans (3.22-31)”
