The Death Penalty…Reinstated
In many countries of the world, the death penalty is carried out almost immediately. In China more than 5,000 people are executed for their crimes every year. That is an average of 14 people a day. They execute more people per year than all of the other countries in the world combined (and this is even after an automatic appeal …
Are You Walking in the Fear of the Lord?
“They feared the LORD, but they also worshiped their own gods according to the custom of the nations where they had been deported from.” 2 Kings 17:33 I find this verse quite intriguing…to say the least. It says that they feared the Lord, but that they continued to worship other gods. And if you read the names of the gods …
Living on Autopilot
Before we get into the teaching today, it might benefit some to know what autopilot is and how it works…and then we can tie in the truth of this to show a spiritual application of it. The word autopilot is derived from the two words: automatic pilot. Autopilot can not only fly the plane, but it can climb the plane …
Perilous Times
By Mrs. Robert Hammond This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; …
New Testament Thieves
There are several people referred to as thieves in the New Testament. Eight times in the New Testament Jesus is referred to as a thief. Satan is also referred to as a thief in Matthew 13:19 which says, “When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has …
Just Another Day at the Office
“Up till now My Father has been working, and now I work.” John 5:17 As I flew into Dallas/Fort Worth this morning and was coming around on the tram, I was meditating on this verse. And the more I think about it, the more powerful it becomes to me. “Up till now” means that up to this point the Father …
The Bombshell in 2 Timothy 2:13
My heart is deeply burdened this morning as I write this. I am finally beginning to understand why three times Paul used the phrase “according to my gospel” (Romans 2:16, 16:25, 2 Timothy 2:8). The gospel and the responsibility of it became very personal to him. He had an understanding of the ramifications of his teachings on the lives of …
Pleasing God
I think a lot of people never develop a full understanding of what it means to please God. Many in America think that just going to church is pleasing God. Many more think that doing good works towards their fellow man is pleasing God. And yet others think that giving money towards programs of benevolence is pleasing God. While all …
Glory in The Church
By Mrs. Robert Hammond Glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee. John 17:1 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one. John 17:22 Years ago I was looking at worship. Heavenly worship. In the book of Revelation, I found this: “Thou art worthy O …
Spiritual Serial Killers
Last Wednesday night after ministering, we had a “question and answer” session. These sessions are to address biblical doctrines, theology, bible questions about what a verse means, false doctrines, things that folks are struggling with, etc. A man raised his hand and I called on him to ask his question. But he didn’t have a question, per se. He made …
