I originally posted this about five years ago, but the website referenced went down.  With the link now fixed, I thought it might be a good idea to blow the dust off this post and put it out there again: Recently I had an experience that profoundly troubled me.  Visiting a local Church (Southern Baptist, […]

As a blogger/evangelist, I can’t help but wonder what you the first-time visitor is thinking right now.  As you scan the articles and links posted here, what is going through your mind?  I am sure there are probably as many different reactions to this website as there are visitors.  Let me tell you my fear.  […]

I know I’m questioning the unquestionable, but… Is “Asking Jesus into our Hearts” Biblical? We have all heard it taught.  It is taught to children in Sunday schools, private Christian schools, and in Christian homes across the land.  It is taught as being the Gospel message, the plan of salvation, and in modern times it […]

First time here to ChurchSalt?  Well, this is the primary message of this site, and it is addressed to all who go by the name Christian… Examine Yourself! Do you obey God?  Don’t worry, this is not some legalistic article trying to promote how we can only go to heaven if we do this, do […]

This latest sermon is an extremely short but pointed look into a topic covered in a blog-post not too long ago (read post Here).  If someone asked you right now, “Is Jesus on your side?”  How would you answer?  Do you feel as though He is your support and has your back in all you […]

This post will be the first in a new series of ChurchSalt posts.  I am not sure how long we will go with this series (I am planning on initially publishing one a week), but I think they will prove to be helpful for many folks out there.   This series is called “Dangerous Places” and […]

Why Stop Sinning?  This is a very important question.  Are you doing your best not to sin?  Why?  When it comes to motive, there are two major categories: 1)   Motive 1 – To earn God’s favor, to clean yourself up and make yourself right with God.  You want to stop messing up because you know […]

I came across a sports article this week that speaks volumes as to what is being preached in the common church today.  The article (you can see it HERE) was regarding Steve Johnson, a receiver for the Buffalo Bills (an American football team).  Apparently, toward the end of a recent game Johnson had a chance […]

Seeing as how many people are watching poll results daily right now in anticipation of the November elections (at least in the U.S.), I thought it would be a good idea to put up a new ChurchSalt Poll and review the results of the last one.  So, here we go.  The last poll was this: […]

Take a look at the following video.  At first glance it may seem like creative, simple way to present the beauty of the gospel, but what is really the message being presented here?  Watch the video and then I will give you my thoughts on it below…. Here is what I see…. I see the […]

If you were to browse my bookshelf, it would quickly become evident that I like to read theology books written by dead guys.  That is, the vast majority of authors on my shelves have been dead for hundreds of years.  I find modern authors to be tainted by a sensual culture that influences their worldview, […]

Warning!  Beware!  Danger ahead!! That is what should go through your mind when you hear a preacher or speaker use the phrase “for me”.  It is a red flag warning sign that the person speaking does not believe in truth, logic or God’s Word, even if they profess that they do.  Now to clarify, I […]
