The answer is a big whopping YES! Most of GOD’s children continue to feel guilty for various reasons. Some that I am familiar with are the following.

• You have not fully accepted GOD’s forgiveness.
• You keep reminding yourself of the wrong you did.
• You listen to someone else remind you of the wrong you did.
• You are being taught incorrectly about the forgiveness of GOD.
• You have not forgiven…

Well, let’s look at the beginning of sin. Genesis 3:1-6, 11-13; take notice of a few things.

1.  The moment the serpent began to speak; Eve should have known something was wrong instead of standing there conversation with it.

2.  GOD never told Adam that he or his wife could not touch the fruit of the tree.

3.  Adam and Eve were already like GOD because they were created in HIS image. GOD spoke to them daily so anything they…

Heaven is a Kingdom and the throne of GOD. In heaven are many mansions. It holds the purses of our treasure where we may obtain what we need here on earth. A throne with someone seated; there are twenty-four elders seated around the throne. In the front of the throne are seven torches which are the seven spirits of GOD. In front of the throne is a shiny sea of glass. In the center and around the throne are four living beings. All they…

Join us for the 21th Anniversary of Central city Café and the first harvest fest of the Garden of Stewardship. Come and taste some of what we have grown and learn about what we’re doing and how you may qualify to…

Before we can understand death; we must understand life. GOD’s original purpose was that we live forever but with Adams sin we were sentenced to death. GOD is a Spirit and we were created in HIS image; meaning that we are spirit clothed in flesh. Our flesh is made from the dirt/dust of the ground; our spirit is inside and GOD breathes life in our nostrils so that we have become a living soul which has the ability to…

Understand that anger in and of itself is not sinful. It’s how we act on the emotion of anger that maybe sinful. When we are treated unjustly sometimes it’s best that we step away to cool off and think about what

happened. Do not allow yourself to remain angry as you retire to your bed for the day. This will cause much harm to your spirit and while you are asleep; the thought of your anger and the unjustness that you have…

The first requirement is to know HIM as our SAVIOR. Once we have accepted GOD’s only begotten SON, JESUS we will be able to read the instructions given to us in our Bible. The Holy Spirit will open up our understanding and when we attend a Word teaching ministry we will hear how we are to apply GOD’s Word to our lives in our daily walk. We will be encouraged to obey GOD’s will. Also attending Bible study gives us the opportunity to ask…

Simply put its constant communication with our CREATOR, GOD.

People don’t pray for the most common reasons; they’ve not been taught to pray and the importance of

prayer. They’ve not…

“Born Again” is a phrase that was first used by JESUS

HIMSELF in John 3:3. JESUS told Nicodemus the Pharisee that he must be born

again. This is just as confusing today as it was when JESUS told it to

Nicodemus, but JESUS took the time to explain this new birth experience to

Nicodemus. Just as we are all born into a physical family we must also be born

into a spiritual family, GOD’s family of believers. We learn…

The answer to this question is “Yes”!

Let’s look at 5 basic principles of depression. Depression is a demonic spirit and it attacks the individual. Not everyone has a spirit of depression; some may experience depression as a temporary emotion which is brought on by negative news and then in about 3 days or so you begin to come out of it. However, in…

The simple reason why we fail is that naturally in our

flesh we are bent towards sin. Apostle Paul had this struggle and made it clear

that we are in a struggle between our flesh and our born again spirit within

us. Are we to be discouraged because this struggle is ever present with us? No!

This is exactly what satan would like to see us do; quit, give up hope; believe

that it’s not worth the effort or that it…

Revelation 3:20

When I was a wee child; I lived with my Great-Grandmother. In her bedroom she had a picture of a person that modeled for the role of JESUS knocking on a door. Now I never paid any attention to anything in the picture with the exception of the model; who I thought at that time was actually JESUS. A few years ago I was in a Bible study and that picture was described; it came to my attention that the door did not have a doorknob on the outside of the door. I…

GOD keeps us from falling

Jude 24-25

Unlike the famous television commercial; “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up!” GOD’s children do not fall on or into a realm of unprotection. We are always in the Ark of safety because we belong to GOD. We are not perfect yet we strive for perfection; because of this there will be times when we will make a mistake but this does not mean that we have our hearts bent towards sin. Sometimes we will react to sin…

1 John 1:7-10

There is not one sin known or unknown to man that we cannot come to GOD and ask HIM to forgive us in JESUS name. GOD is compassionate; faithful; forgiving; merciful and HIS abundant grace delivers; heals; saves us from our mistakes. We don’t have to be ashamed or guilty for making a mistake; allowing our flesh to take over or straight out rebellion. The very instant that we are aware of a sin that we committed all we need to do is tell GOD what we did and ask…

Matthew 6:25-34; 1 Peter 5:7

My life was plagued by fear for many years. It began as a child and followed me through until I was well within my forty’s. Fear is not a friend but our enemy. The spirit of fear began to destroy my life because it caused me to be afraid of meeting new people. Fear kept me in a mode of always wanting to please others. Fear brought with it anxiety which made me nervous all the time; I developed certain tics; for example talking fast; stammering;…
