It is alarming how paper thin Christianity is getting in America. Recently, Evangelicals pledged to support a man who is Pimp and who has open whore houses and who is running for political office. The man isn’t reformed or repentant, having left this former way of life, nay his dens of sin are still open and well documented. When asked why Evangelicals would vote for him their answers were that he is “he is the right man for the job, he has the right policies.” It is interesting how people can divorce their beliefs from politics and other theaters of this world. Being ardent in morality at church but not when it comes to those in political office.  This paper thin Christianity is a byproduct of the Post Modern Times we live in. People who claim to be Christian take up their banner for tyrants on Monday through Saturday and then on Sunday wave the white flag of Jesus. Hypocrisy stinks and this schizophrenia in Evangelicalism is why many are fleeing to the Roman Catholic and Eas

Alexander Dumas’s classic “The Count of Monte Cristo” is a paragon of French novella. While his “Three Musketeers” might be more adapted and beloved by swashbuckling boys, The Count is a story for us adults. I confess that reading the mammoth 1,450 page novel was a pleasure until the thirty first chapter. For thirty chapters the reader is plunged into the tale of Edmund Dantes, first mate of Phareon ship that has recently returned from the prison island Elba that holds Emperor Napoleon captive. Dantes returns to Marseilles, his home, to greet his ship own Mr. monsieur Morrel. Edmund relates how his captain was laid sick by a fever and they laid at port of Ferraro off Elba. After assuring Ship Owner Morrel that the cargo is intact and becoming a candidate to be the new captain, Edmund Dantes visits his father and then his fiancée Mercedes who is tacitly trying to ward off the amorous advances of Fernand Mondego, who pledges his love to Mercedes only to find her like Medusa reducing

Thank God for His sacrifice. Every day we reaffirm that we are weak vessels that aspire to holiness and find our flesh Ill disposed with our call. This frailty frustrates are noble piety, when it ought to  provoke gratitude in our hearts. Our flesh acts as a double agent in this life. For the sinner it leads to hades and death, for the saint it leads to remembrance of Christ’s death. Our Lord’s sacrifice has been a propitiation and atonement for all our sins for all time (1 Peter 3:18). There is nothing more than Jesus’ death on the cross and His spilt blood  that can save us and grant us holiness and eternal life. Our spirit and being within has been made clean by the blood of the Lamb and we await the day when we shall relieve our unstained bodies (2 Corinthians 5, whole chapter). Until then the weakness of this matter, the flesh and vessel, serves God. It reminds us lest we become deceived and believe we can be holy enough that we are broken pilgrims in need of God’s grace daily

Right now there is a wave of change hitting the high churches. From Anglican to Lutheran to Presbyterian and beyond, churches are throwing in their lot with either progressive or traditional leanings. Those who want to bend tradition and conform to modern morales and values have adopted rainbow colors while the more conservative use a navy or cobalt blue cross. The division in the high churches has bled into schisms and left those who have attended their local parish and home town church to ask some very tough questions.  When these churches were founded , there principle masters and founders would have vehemently denounced the modern concessions to culture and the views of those who seek reforms that verge on sacrilege and are in defiance of both Scripture and tradition. Martin Luther, Zwingli, John Knox, and John Calvin would have ardently opposed such reforms with a vigor of a firebrand. It then is betwixing to watch the churches who carry their names and traditions defy th

It is imperative that we read the Scriptures. At this time there are many false gospels (Galatians 1:8-9), false christs (Matthew 24:24) and false christianities (heresies) that are deceiving people. From the prosperity gospel that promises monetary gains to follow Jesus the Messiah to Network Christianity which is political movement to take seats of power in countries but not preach the Gospel, and beyond; deceptions are creeping about like scorpions to induce poisonous heresies and doctrines, “But there were also false prophets among the people, as there will be false teachers among you also, who will stealthily introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master having bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction,” (2 Peter 2:1), “Now the Spirit speaks expressly, that in the latter times (last days) some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils,” (1 Timothy 4:1), “For the time will come when people will not put up wi

The Jurassic Park/Jurassic World franchise is the last bastion of Darwinism in the media. Darwin even recanted his popularized “Theory of Evolution,” on His death bed, and yet it remains the dogma and chief belief of scientists today. Dinosaurs are at the heart of the war between Creationists and Evolutionists. So heated is the argument that many brothers and sisters in Christ have decided to believe dinosaurs are the invention of Darwinist Paleontologists. Many Bibles contain a note claiming the Behemoth is rhinoceros and the Leviathan a crocodile. The reason why some are content to deny dinosaurs is because they fear rightly the fusion of Christianity and Evolution into what has been a heretical bridge between Christian doctrine and Darwinist theory, particularly in regards to the six days of creation being eons or millions of years instead of a actual day. Such Christovolutionists claim this on the principle of “a day is a thousand years to God, and a thousand years a day.”

When God cams in the flesh He was honored by Magi and Shepherds. When He was of age He did not choose the most scholarly, but the most spiritually open. The Pharisees and Sadducces saw our Savior as a threat. They feared He would change everything and they were right. The Hebrews had been robbed of everything by Rome but their religion. They had fought and died for it. When the Roman Emperor wanted to place an idol in the Temple the Jews fought and rioted until it was gone. They who had every vistage of their life trampled on by the sandals of Rome, had but one constant, synagogue and the Law. The Mosaic Law was precious to them, and they awaited the Messiah to restore their fortunes and favor in the world. To their surprise they had misread the Prophets, failed to see The Suffering Savior in Isaiah 53, and were surprised that the same God who had given them the Law came now to fulfill it and finish it and replace it with Grace and Faith. The religious elite were befuddled as th
