Romans 3

Before JESUS found me thirty-four years ago; I was guilty of sin. I was not righteous in the eyes of my CREATOR GOD. I did not understand anything about the Highest GOD. JESUS was on the cross every Easter and in the manger every CHRISTmas. I never once thought about GOD or JESUS…

1 Corinthians 12

Maybe I'm standing alone in being ignorant to many of the things that my DADDY has for us all. If so; cool. At least I'm able to admit that when it comes to the things of the Spirit; I don’t know much. I was taught early in my walk with JESUS that no one who is speaking by the…

1 Corinthians 3

What makes a Christian worldly? Would you recognize a carnal Christian if you were in there presence? Most people wouldn’t; because most people don’t know what it means to be a carnal Christian. Before I provide the definition to my questions; allow me to explain that it’s impossible…

1 Corinthians 2

Let me begin by writing; that I love education. I enjoy learning new and adventurous things that I can at some point in my life use. However, as much as I love education and believe that everyone should grasp knowledge with everything they have and more. The love that I have for wisdom far excels the love that I have for knowledge. Everyday I'm always…

1 Corinthians 1

To the household of faith we are so greatly loved and are partakers of our FATHER’s great kindness through our LORD JESUS. In JESUS our LORD we have from the FATHER the power to speak with a depth of knowledge which cannot be obtained through school or religion but through the…

2 Corinthians 13

To the self appointed fault finding police; the anal retentive people who are too legalistic to enjoy life and cause others to be miserable around them and the self appointed judges. When was the last time you looked at yourself in the mirror and examined yourself according to the LORD JESUS? When was the last time you listened to what others have said…

2 Corinthians 12

Thank you Apostle Paul. So many of you have never met or seen me. One of the characteristics I have is that it is impossible for anyone to shake my faith in the LORD JESUS. I know that the LORD JESUS and I have a relationship. One of the characteristics that HE has is a healer and I also know that regardless of what my flesh maybe experiencing; I am healed and…

2 Corinthians 11

I have never sided with anyone that will read their bible in a rush. The Holy Word of GOD is not to be devoured as if it’s a normal book. No; this book transforms lives; it feeds the spirit of man; it renews our thinking; we are encouraged; we learn the promises that we can have now; today. And so much more does it have in store for us; however, we can’t…

2 Corinthians 10

We live day by day and night by night in a battle of war for our families; friends; co-workers; school chums and the lost in our neighborhoods and communities. Some of us are ready for battle when we go shopping; out to dine or where ever we may go; ready to witness to anyone or to simply pray that someone come to know the LORD JESUS CHRIST today where…

2 Corinthians 9

We as people in general have many great expectations to do something; anything to help others who are in need. But as we procrastinate in the doing of what it is we had gotten so very excited about; our zeal begins to decline. People are emotional and that’s what drives us; if we are energized and excited about doing something but…

2 Corinthians 8

How many of you see the real need that others have right in the congregation where you sit? I believe that we can be conquerors of poverty within our own house if we grasp how we are to be a help to one another right in the building of faith were we attend our weekly or bi-weekly faith and worship service. I'm tired of seeing my brothers and sisters of my…

2 Corinthians 7

Our promise is evident; our LORD GOD, our FATHER does live within each and everyone of us who has a relationship with HIM and HIS SON; the LORD JESUS. How many of us have looked at the promise this way?  John 14:10-11; the FATHER is in JESUS and JESUS is in the FATHER; which means to me that because the FATHER is in JESUS and JESUS is in the FATHER that the…

2 Corinthians 6

We should all know that we are the LORD GOD’s acceptable workers. It’s known because you have been given HIS grace. However, the reason so many do nothing with that is because they are unaware of this knowledge. The LORD GOD did not give HIS grace to us in vain. As a matter of fact it was at the acceptable time that HE heard us; in the day of salvation HE helped us. Why is that?…

2 Corinthians 5 pt. 2

If you are not born again you should have an unhealthy fear of the LORD GOD; it’s not accepting and believing in the LORD JESUS that places you in hell caused by sin. This is why true, blood washed and forgiven children of the living GOD are compelled to share the Good News about the LORD JESUS CHRIST and HIS resurrection along with their testimony. We understand that nothing…

2 Corinthians 5 pt. 1

Brothers and sisters of faith in Cthe LORD JESUS CHRIST know that we are treasures housed in the flesh. What we see is not us; just like what others see along our neighborhoods are not us just because we live in that particular building. Our flesh is only a house made from clay/dirt and just like your home we are responsible for its up keep. You mow and water your lawn; you…

1 Corinthians 4

As trustees of the LORD CHRIST JESUS we must be found in all things trustworthy. Some of us may or may not be in the habit of self evaluation; I suggest that we evaluate ourselves. We spend too much time evaluating others; judging their actions and what it is they say. In most common instances the things that are done are from familiarity as well as the things which are said and it will take time to conform from those things we did and…

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…
