  • Daily Devotional: Romans 2:9-16

    Daily Devotional: Romans 2:9-16

    Paul is unclear, here, about what and when the day of judgment will be (v. 5, 16). What we know for sure is that on the day of judgment, it is a person’s conscience and thoughts that bear witness against him or her. Those who keep the Law will be justified. The person’s soul will…

    Daily Devotional: Genesis 28:10-22

    Jacob has a dream of angels ascending and descending on a ladder to heaven. God speaks to him in the dream in order to reaffirm the promise He made to Jacob’s father and grandfather. Jacob is the seed of promise according to God’s will. Jacob was self-consumed, even taking the birthright that belonged to his…

  • The Seven Trumpets in Revelation

    The Seven Trumpets in Revelation

    In Chapter 5, verse 1, we saw a book sealed so that no one could open it. We yearned to know the contents of the book. Finally, we get to see what is inside. In today’s passage, Jesus breaks the final seal, and the book falls open to reveal the judge’s just judgment in response…

  • Salvation Through the Jews?

    Salvation Through the Jews?

    Ask your questions at Christoa.com, on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, or Tumblr. Every so often, I ask a question on Facebook in order to get us thinking about a concept mentioned in Scripture. This time I put the statement, “Salvation is through the Jews. True or false?” I received a myriad of responses including “false,”…

  • Jesus On Predestination and the Rapture

    Jesus On Predestination and the Rapture

    A couple weeks ago, we saw Jesus tell the crowds a parable in which the kingdom of Heaven was compared to wheat and tares. He did not explain his parable to the crowds, so we made a couple observations and application but did not explain the parable specifically. In today’s text, Jesus explains His parable…

  • Christ’s Fruitless and Fruitful Word

    Christ’s Fruitless and Fruitful Word

    Why do people reject such a gracious Gospel? Why do people claim to be Christians but add works to grace as the basis for salvation? Why do self-proclaimed Christians hear God’s word and explain it away saying, “The Bible doesn’t really mean that”?  In the previous passage, Jesus told a parable and left the parable…

  • Law vs. Gospel: An Unnecessary Conflict

    Law vs. Gospel: An Unnecessary Conflict

    There is a church I know that is still meeting even though it’s bad for the people in our current COVID-19 season. What’s worse, they are making people feel bad about not going. They preach and teach that a person is saved by grace, but must do something. Every Fundamental Baptist Church I have engaged…

  • I Can’t Do All Things Through Him Who Gives Me Strength

    I Can’t Do All Things Through Him Who Gives Me Strength

    Over the last couple weeks, we have been working up to the battle between David and Goliath. We still won’t get there. Anticipation will build for one more week. Most of us are familiar enough with this story to know that David prevails over Goliath. At this point in the story, no one knows whether…

  • The Reality of Our Future Resurrection

    The Reality of Our Future Resurrection

    As we conclude our current series walking through our belief statements at our local church, we must declare our stance on the reality of the resurrection. Perhaps one of the most hotly debated topics in theology is the end times, partly because we don’t have much information and partly because over the years people have…
