2 Thessalonians 2:13-17 contains one of those classic passages in scripture that addresses God’s election of the saints. God has provided this particular passage to give us hope and let us know that He is in complete control of all situations. We are to stand firm in His promises. Everything that we put our faith into is the knowledge that He keeps His word to us. Our hope is in Him and nothing else. It allows us to stand firm. Read More...

My wife Paula and I were able to give our testimony this last Friday night at our church. Our church does a once a month "3rd" Friday get together. They serve dinner and have special topics and speakers. Well since Valentines day was Thursday they did a special night on what the bible says about "love". They also had two couples, which we were one of, as speakers on how God entered our relationship and how He has changed it over the years. This message is really less about us and more about glorifying God in what He has done in our marriage. I hope this message blesses anyone who could be in our situation over 10 years ago. God has the power to heal any relationship. Here is our story. Read More...

Check out this video of emergent leader Brian Mclaren on the doctrine of Hell. His claim is that hell does not exist and it is out of character for God to ask us to forgive but does not forgive those who rebel against God Himself. God tells us not to murder but what happened to Ananias and Sapphira when they lied to Peter? God struck them both dead. Am I to call God a murderer? No, God makes the rules not us. We don't get to put God in a box of our own mind and hold Him accountable to it. It is like telling my two year old that you can't use the butcher knife but obviously I can and my son turning around and saying thats not fair, I should have the same rights as you. Ridiculous.

Saying there is no hell is a lie from the father of lies, there is absolutely no doubt that Brian Mclaren is a false teacher and we know who he serves, the ruler of this world. Run from this man and his heresies. This video speaks for itself.



God hates sin. I wonder if Brian even believes in the account of Noah. God wiped the whole world clean except for 6 people!!!! There is judgement, there is hell for those who reject Christ.

Revelation 2:10 says He who overcomes will not be hurt by the second death.

What is the second death that Christ is talking about? John tells us further in Revelation 21:8

But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death."

Who is it that overcomes the second death? 1 John 5:5 Who is the one who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

Either Brian Mclaren is a liar or Jesus is a liar. I am betting on the truth of Jesus. If there is no hell why did Jesus die on the cross? Why do I need to be saved from the second death if there is no hell?

The fact is clear we are going to be persecuted and afflicted as Christians. It is inevitable, the word of God speaks so clearly about this. I would be concerned if you have never been persecuted for your faith and obedience to Christ. We know Paul writes in 2 Timothy 3:12

Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted. Read More...
