From the blog this week: The Person of the Holy Spirit
How Do I Find Freedom from Worry?
“We’re sinners; I’m a sinner. I don’t deserve any promise of God fulfilled in my life. How can I count on the promises of God being fulfilled in my life? One thing: Christ died for me.”
A Gasp of Pain, A Sigh of Relief
“And then comes the great balancing act. You need to determine the best way to do good for others and bring glory to God not just in church, but in every other area of responsibility.”
The Greatest Barrier to Reaching Muslims
“Westerners who remain willfully ignorant of the situation are part of the problem. Politicians who repeat the lie that Islam is a religion of peace are part of the problem. Christians who condemn those who speak the truth about Islam are part of the problem.”
Why Evangelicals Can No Longer Avoid Addressing Sexuality
“Under the ‘Christian’ umbrella, you have some churches and denominational groups that promote love to the LGBTQ community complete with rainbows outside their churches but abandon the traditional orthodox and long-held understanding of Scriptural teachings on sexual immorality. Other churches and groups under the same umbrella preach biblical truth in anger instead of love, with an overemphasis on homosexuality that treats this sin as somehow worse than any other sin in the Bible, failing to make a distinction between LGBTQ identifying persons who are to be loved as image-bearers but called away from the sin of homosexuality to Jesus.”
