Mixing bunnies and eggs with Resurrection Day is one example of mixing the secular with the sacred things of Christ. Another example occurs when we blend some of the ideas propagated by secular psychology. These ideas cannot be “integrated” or mixed together into a unified whole. It should be clear that some of them are in DIRECT…
Seems like many shows keep coming out on this “tsunami” of a problem commonly called “addiction” (the Bible calls it “enslavement” and “idolatry” which still holds the person responsible for sinful choices that feed the problem). Dr. Drew Pinsky from the secular perspective is passionate about helping “addicts” as am I. But we have 2 different…
Remember James 4:6 states: “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” The picture I think of is playing tennis against God. When we are proud, we are on the opposite side of the net against God and there is no way we are going to win against Him in tennis! Is God…
Shouldn’t be a surprise that marijuana causes problems with our mental health but I don’t think people realize how much doing illicit drugs affects someone’s ability to think and make good decisions that please the Lord. Are we seeing more “psychosis” and “schizophrenia” today? Yes. Is there a link between them and THC (marijuana)? Yes,…
Can you present the Gospel without mentioning the bad news that we all have a sin problem that is going to kill us and send us to a real place in eternity called Hell? Sin is a vital ingredient of the Gospel like apples are a vital ingredient to apple pie! We have a sin…
Basically, one aspect of what it means to “glorify God” is to do what He says to do. When we obey Him, then we best reflect His glory to others. Jesus Christ is our Head and we are His body. We are the body of Christ and are to act like His hands and feet. We…
What does our culture deny the reality of – on a daily basis? How about this answer: sin and our sinful natures that are replaced by the power of Christ Who alone transforms the human will (Rom. 12:1-2). Just watch the news. People see death, crime, and suffering all around the world yet do not come…
No!!! So why do people incorrectly think and say that they have to “forgive God” as if God has done something wrong? God NEVER sins. God NEVER wrongs us. God is good. God is love. God is just, perfect, holy, and righteous. There is no fault in God. None. I know that it is a…
Psychology means the “study of the soul” and quite frankly, that’s all secular psychologists do. They study the inner person of man that we call the soul. Some psychiatrists can give medicines but is that helping the soul or the body? When a soul is troubled and needs Christ, does that soul need medicine or…
Hate is a strong word. The only time it’s ok to hate is when we hate what God hates. Even then, we must not RESPOND in hate but in love. That’s the hard part. (Rom. 12:17-21) People often say, “God hates divorce” and I agree. We should hate it, too. Divorce is terrible and our…
