2 Corinthians 3

Free to be whoever you want to be even if it’s wrong in the sight of the living GOD. Free to choose whom to serve; yourself and sin or to be chosen for the gift of salvation and the Holy Ghost. That’s right we have a right to choose whether or not we want to receive the gift of salvation and the Spirit of the living GOD from the LORD JESUS CHRIST. We have often heard that we are…

2 Corinthians 2

What a wonderful word forgiveness is. Do you know that all day long we may have to stand in forgiveness of someone for doing something or saying something that they should not have said or done? For instance; I can be watching a television program that I really enjoy and the actor or actress may say something that will include the name of GOD and I find myself asking for…

2 Corinthians 1

The majority of us only see comfort as to be relaxed or to be physically eased from pain. However, the LORD GOD designed comfort to be so much more for HIS children. Recognize that the LORD GOD is The GOD of all comfort and encouragement. Notice that comfort and encouragement goes hand in hand. We can’t experience comfort and not be encouraged and we can’t be encouraged without…

Galatians 6

Some of us still have that Cain spirit residing within us and we need to let him go. What I mean is that instead of trying to help our siblings out who are in need because they have sinned; we judge them. We speak ill of them in shameful ways with others. Now I know that every human has got to want help; however, it’s still worth the effort to try and provide help. We must do all we can to restore our siblings and we must always do this in…

Galatians 5

Why did the LORD JESUS free us? So that we can be free. We are to stand firm in the truth of our LORD JESUS; never let anyone or anything prevent you from becoming or remaining free in the knowledge of our LORD CHRIST JESUS. Everything HE is; is our blue print of how we are to become in HIM. We have all lived as prisoners; as slaves to sin; to our flesh desires; to the darkness of our minds and lifeless spirit. Why or what did it profit us…

Galatians 4

Sometimes when a will is drawn up and there are heirs who are minors (under 18) or are of legal adult age; yet they are immature (18+). A trust will be added with a stipulation set forth. I'm not writing this to show that I maybe correct; this is just my personal thought about the first couple of verses. As I studied these verses I thought how the LORD JESUS wrote a brand new will that nullified the former will that was once set for…

Galatians 3

It is not a new thing-just as the Galatians were captured by a spell. Many Christians today are caught under the very same spell. The enemy will never change his tactics because far too many of us continue to fall for his tactics. We read and we read that we are no longer under the law; yet we are still very legalistic. The law will never win a lost soul to JESUS and the law will never keep our dearly loved brother and sister in CHRIST…

Galatians 2

I wrote to you before sharing that there are some who have and will come in, to distort the gospel. Now let me share with you why it’s so very easy for your faith to be shaken. It’s so very easy to rock your faith because there are far too many Christians who will not read their bibles. They can come up with every excuse possible as to why they don’t have the time to read the precious Word of the LORD GOD.…

Galatians 1

Here is a free will gift to every person born. For every person born and living old enough to read this blog with understanding; know that you are not a mistake. Your father and mother may have not planned to conceive you. However; the LORD GOD has HIS own plans and desires that HE will like to see carried out.  The LORD GOD said HIMself; “For I know what plans I have in mind for you,’ says Adonai, plans…

Ephesians 6

• Children obey your parents in the LORD.

When children have godly parents who are living in the LORD; one of the lessons taught must be that they listen and obey. However, if the parents are not in the LORD; it does not mean that children should not listen and obey. There are some good parents out here that are lost in their sins and there…
