We live in a day and age when it is more fashionable to tickle people’s ears with what they want to hear. The messages are almost alll “feel-good” packages. The so-called prophecies of the day are exactly the good-sounding things that people want to hear.
Those of us who have accepted the task of declaring truth …

Micaiah: A Non-conformist Preacher
Greater works than these…
Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves.
“Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to …
Let Your Light Shine
Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on …
Did Jesus heal ALL that were sick and oppressed? Was faith always required?
How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him. (Acts 10:38)
The question now is, Did Jesus really heal every sick person He met? If not, what does the above verse really say …
Money we don’t have; Things we don’t need; People we don’t like
I ran into a comment on a discussion forum I frequent, and it rang so true. I have modified it slightly to reflect Biblical truth:
The world keeps prompting people to spend money they don’t have for things they don’t need, to impress people they don’t like.
It is called keeping with the Joneses. And it is …
Driven by Activity
I spoke at a parish of a major pentecostal denomination on Monday evening, and it was a system shock for me. I must confess that it has been a very long time that I have been in such a meeting. It was all about activities lined up one after the other. Opening prayer, praise and …
Are you led by the Spirit?
When people use the term, “Led by the Spirit“, often they are thinking of what I call a subjective, fuzzy inner impression that they follow as a means of guidance. But when the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ gave instructions to the Church, was that what they meant or are millions of professing believers …
I Can Do All Things…
An often misappropriated verse of Scriptures is Philippians 4:13. As usual, people get away with this because they ignore the context of what the apostle Paul was saying. Here it is:
Philippians 4:10-14
10 I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at length you have revived your concern for me. You were indeed concerned for …
The Purpose Drivel Church IV
This is in continuation of my series on Mr. Rick Warren’s purpose-driven ideology. In chpater 11 of his book, The Purpose Driven Church, Mr. Warren addresses the issue of “developing your strategy”.
He stetches jesus’ words about making the disciples “fishers of men” beyond Biblical boundaries to present us a terribly flawed premise. When Jesus said …
The Purpose Drivel Church III
This is the 3rd part of my series examining Rick Warren’s The Purpose Driven Church. In this article, we shall see how Mr. Warren has set aside what Scriptures say is the purpose of the Church. Chapters 3 (What Drives Your Church?), 4 (The Foundation for a Healthy Church), and 5 (Defining Your Purposes) are …
