The blog page of this website discusses a lot of different issues. False doctrine, the deceit of cultural Christianity, the examination of the fruit in one’s life, Church structure and all sorts of other stuff. I think these things are necessary to discuss, for the health of our own faith and that of the Church. But please do not let the constant barrage of articles from this website or any other cause your eyes to come off of Christ our Lord. Think of your focus as you might think of driving a car down the road. It is important to look in the mirror (examine your fruit) and it is good to discuss maps and driving techniques (theology) with others in your vehicle. It is OK to look out the side window at other drivers some going the same direction, and at others heading down roads that lead to drop-offs and certain death. It is noble to yell out your window to try to warn them. But, as when driving a real car, your focus must primarily be out the front window. You must keep your eyes on the road, in this case Jesus Christ our Lord as revealed through prayer and Scripture. Please do not ever let the electronic “noise” or the religious concerns in your life keep you from focusing on our Savior. Please do not substitute the study of His Word with a study of Emergent Theology so as to better combat it. Do not let anything infringe upon your time spent with our Lord. It is so easy to become distracted and end up in a ditch. It is the perfection of Christ, and His sacrifice that saved you and I, so do not feel as though concentrating on your holiness, obedience or grasp of theology will somehow save you more. Apologetics is not as valuable as the Living God nor are the Doctrines of Grace as important as the Lord of grace. All these things are important, and diligent study should be made, but not at the expense of time spent with the one who values you so much.

Eyes on the road, please.

Ever wish you had more meat in your spiritual diet? Have you felt as though the ultra light go-get-em’-tiger sermons at your regular church might be wearing on you? HERE is an article you might identify with. Check it out… for the love of meat.
True Fellowship with God
January 26, 2010Communion with God is so wonderful that many pretend to have it when they do not even know what it is. It is like the man who brags about knowing the King but never has seen his face nor met him. God’s Spirit calls it a lie when a man says he knows the Lord but entertains unrighteousness, too: “If we say we have fellowship with Him and walk in darkness, we lie” (1 John 1:6). Communion is rooted in union, and union in likeness. “Can any two walk together, except they be agreed?” (Amos 3:3) – William Gurnall

Would you like to Experience God?
January 3, 2010Hungry to experience God? Jealous of encounters that you have heard from other people? Click on this LINK for a short talk regarding passion and experiencing God yourself. Remember, if you have heard of a new way to experience God, than it isn’t Biblical because the Bible is old (sounds simple, but it is true). If it imitates monks or “great” teachers of meditation, then it is works oriented, as they were. Take a few minutes to listen and see what you think.
