  • Killing My Vanity; Praising the Undertaker

    Killing My Vanity; Praising the Undertaker

    When I started in ministry back in 2010, I had good motives as far as I knew. I set out to build ministries in number and succeeded. I set out to teach God’s word and saw lives turned around for the better. I wouldn’t change that, but I do look back and see so much…

  • DAily Devotional: Romans 8:26-39

    DAily Devotional: Romans 8:26-39

    The Spirit causes His people to love the Law. The Spirit causes His people to long for the renewal of the world. The Spirit also helps us in our weakness. Paul here states that we do not know how to pray as we should. That sounds different than most teaching, doesn’t it? In most religious…

    Daily Devotional: Romans 8:18-25

    Paul describes the present sufferings of the world. While many religious people describe the same sufferings with angst, Paul describes them with hope and optimism. He claims that the creation, that’s all of creation and not merely people who are being saved, waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God. The creation longs…

    Daily Devotional: Romans 8:10-17

    If Christ is in us through the Holy Spirit, we no longer live according to that old-time religion. We no longer see outward works as a path to righteousness, enlightenment, or some kind of nirvana. “Do not handle, do not taste, do not touch… are matters which have… the appearance of wisdom in self-made religion…

    Daily Devotional: Romans 8:1-9

    Paul clarifies what he means when he states that the Law is fulfilled. Paul has a high view of the Law. He is a Jew. He already clarified that he did not mean the Law was abolished. Since all people have transgressed the Law, all people stood condemned. Now there is no condemnation for those…

  • Do I Have Free Will?

    Do I Have Free Will?

    Up to this point in Romans, we have discovered that God alone can give faith and God alone can impute His righteousness. God alone is doing this work of salvation. God alone calls us friend. God alone sets His people free. Up to this point, I am sure there has been a burning question in…

  • You Are Worth More Than You Know (Romans 8:29-30)

                I want to describe for you a struggle that I have in life. I know that I do not deserve the things that I have been given and I know that I am not worth much in the grand scheme of things. When I look in the mirror, I see a human being; one…

  • Is Morality Important Anyway? (Romans 8:12-17)

                Is morality important for the Christian? Is it important for humanity in general? Across the planet, people measure morality by different standards and accept different actions as morally right or wrong. For instance, I have spoken to Californians and New Yorkers who see the ownership of firearms as morally questionable…

  • Brothers, religion does not define us! (Romans 8:1-11)

                One walk down the street or down the school hallway or into a break room at work will reveal a vast diversity of worldviews and belief systems. There are Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists, Jews, Christians and Atheists. There are philosophers, scientists, artists and composers. There are children, teenagers, young adults,…

  • We can be perfect?

    Is it possible for any human being to be perfect, other than Jesus Christ? I remember, when I was younger, pretending to fight with my younger brother. I chased him into his room, and started punching the wood frame on his bed as he yelled each time my hand hit the hard surface. After a…
