From the blog this week: Lead Me to the Rock
5 Myths about Hell
“Hell is a place of punishment by God; sinners who have committed treason against an infinite God will remain in the place of torment where they shall only be able to continually hate the God they hated in their previous life.”
Should We Celebrate the Fourth of July at Church?
“Americans saints need to beware an alternative strategy of working against Jesus—not the strategy of keeping Christianity out, but of bringing the national in, thereby blurring the line between our Christian identity and our national one. You can know that’s happening whenever we begin declaring America—not the church—as ‘the city on the hill,’ as Presidents Kennedy and Reagan both did.”
What Does Unequally Yoked Mean?
“Opinions proliferate about what it means to be unequally yoked. Does it pertain to marrying or dating non-believers? Is Paul thinking of business partnerships? Is it in reference to spiritual matters only, or does he also have social factors in mind? What does Paul have in mind when he exhorts believers to not be unequally yoked?”
The High Stakes of a Hard Heart
“I harden my heart many times a day when I say to myself, I should apologize, but I don’t want to. I should get off my phone, but this is interesting. I should pray, but this sugar will give quicker relief. I should go help, but I’m busy.”
As A Christian I look at my number one kingdom as the kingdom of God. All earthly kingdoms are controlled by Satan. As Christians we are not of this world, although we are traveling through it. Jesus Christ is my only President, Lord, and king. I have no other.
