Work Out Your Own Soul Salvation
Just another misused scripture that people love to quote whenever the men & women of God come against sin. What was Paul really saying as we take a look at the scripture in its entirety.
Cherry Pickers
Are you guilty of cherry picking Bible verses to support your beliefs? It's time to seek a deeper understanding of God's word. Let's avoid distorting the true message by studying the scriptures in their entirety.
Where's the Charge?
God never intended for anyone to get rich off of the Gospel. God gave us a charge, are we holding up our end?
You Are What You Eat
Growing up, the phrase "you are what you eat" was quite common. Usually, it was used to encourage people to eat a healthier diet. A diet that consisted primarily of junk food usually resulted in someone being unhealthy; on the other hand, a diet consisting primarily of fruits and vegetables usually results in a better quality of health. Whether we believe it or not, the same can be said of our walk with God.
A Change Has Got to Take Place
Often, people use the scripture that God looks at the heart as an excuse for their actions. There is no doubt that God examines the heart, but he also examines everything else as well. He examines how we dress, how we speak, and how we conduct ourselves. Let us take a look at when God told Samuel that. At that time, the Kingdom had been torn from Saul and a new king was being anointed by God. As instructed by God, Samuel went to Jesse's house and called for his sons. Upon seeing one of his sons, Samuel thought, "Surely this is the man God would have as his king.". This is when God informed him that man looks at the outer appearance, but I look at the heart. In other words, he looked good on the outside. His heart, however, was not right, making him unsuitable for the position of king.
