Common Sense From The Gospel Of God

Examine your life to remove all idols, so that you can be obedient to God.

Some of you might say what is the danger of false teachers. They are giving people hope. But are they really preaching what God has ordained. The bottom line is, it does not matter what you or I thing? What really matters is what does God’s Word say? Has God said! If some one is making a claim that God has said something, and it does not come to pass. Why would you ever listen to that person, espe...

We hope to discuss wisdom and maturing in this christian walk. Becoming mature is not easy. That’s why most people act like children all there lives. Paul in 1 Corinthians 13:11 says When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. We all have a child like nature in us. We also all have a war that is going o...

What if I told you to think about the most frightening think you think you could go through. Or what if I told you to think about the most pain you have ever encountered. Then I say multiply that times 500, and then had 20 more zeros. You would say I can not even fathom such pain. Well hell will be worst than that. I don’t believe our minds can not conceive of how bad hell will be. Some people say...

What if I told you that you could invest in an exclusive financial program that would keep you great rewards. Then I told you that you had to invest none of your own money. But I explain to you the the benefits, and returns are better than anything you have ever invested in. This would get the attention of most people. Most people are invested in a 401k, or some type of Stock. If not they have som...

God never promised that we would have no Lions Dens. He never promised that you would have no trials and tribulations. But he did promise never to leave or forsake us. The story of Daniel is a story of prayer, and faith in a God that delivers His people.

In order to become a true worshipper we must look to the LORD and depend on His strength. We must seek His face at all times. We really do not know what God requires in worship, unless he reveals it to us in His word. I Chronicles chapter 16 verse 29 says Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name; bring an offering and come before him. Worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness. To ascribe...

In order to get better you must admit that you have a problem. And if you have been holding on to this your demon, or shortcoming, you probably are not able to help yourself. Why not ask the One who does all things well to help deliver you from this sin. Don’t become so comfortable with your demons, that you want to keep them. If you ask the lord Jesus to deliver you, he can deliver you from that...

Whatever it is in your life that is preventing or hindering you from getting close to GOD. You should throw it off or set it aside. The Christian race is a Marathon, not a sprint. If you run it as if you are running a sprint. You will become discouraged and disappointed. This will cause you to take your eyes off the Lord Jesus. Thus causing you to drop out of the race. Anything hindrances that is...

The people are the ones who pick their leaders. Put the leaders are the ones that guide the country. So if the people are picking corrupt and ungodly leaders. Why should you expect someone who has lied, stolen, and cheated for years to all of a sudden do the right thing and lead the people. A country, state, or city needs leaders that really fear God. They will not be perfect but if they fear God...

Your words are what can tell people how you feel about any subject that you speak on. It is an expression on what is in your heart. What’s in the heart will always come out. That is why the lord Jesus said one day: But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. 19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false...

God never let’s evil go unpunished. We should remember that when we think that wicked people are getting away with their evil deeds.

How is it possible that we say we want to go to heaven, and we never think about it? Heaven is for heavenly minded people. If you are not happy spending time with God on earth. Why would God force you into heaven to spend eternity with Him? Heaven is a place where those who have placed their faith in the finish work of the lord Jesus will go. We must fix our eyes on the eternal if we are truly pil...

If there is a famine in a country, I can assure you that it is God who called for the famine. God used famine to punished the children of Israel in the bible, and he will still use it to punish nations today. Idolatry is the main reason that our LORD brings famine, and diseases. Disobedience is the underlining factor in God bring Judgement on any people.

When people say that Jesus was tempted by the devil, it is not really correct. The Lord Jesus was tested by the devil, because the Holy Spirit lead Him out to show that He was indeed the Messiah. He is our high priest. Hebrews 4:15 says For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not s...

Today we will attempt to talk about a subject that is to lofty for us to comprehend. We can only talk about what is said about the subject of the Sovereignty of God, as explained in the bible. This is a subject that most run away from, but the Bible speaks on this subject regularly. No human being can fully comprehend the sovereignty of God. If he or she says they do, they are lying. Because one w...

We have a Savior that does everything well. He only does that which pleases the father. If it is teaching. No one could teach like the lord Jesus taught. He taught with authority, because he was in the beginning with the Father. He lived a perfect sinless life, and paid for our sins. Yes He does everything well. Just like in the beginning when he made the creation. The bible says that “And God saw...

We should glory in a Gospel that rescues us from Hell. Paul is telling Timothy who might need some encouragement, to be bold in preaching the gospel. Before he gets to not being ashamed he reminds him “stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.” He says “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Be not thou therefore...

God Almighty has given every person on this earth a certain amount of time to do His Will. The question is will you live for YOU, or will you live for the One who has made you steward over the time you have been allotted on the earth. God is truly a merciful God, but one day you will be asked if you have been redeeming your time on earth. Will your answer be I was busy doing things I thought where...

The Resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ is the most important event in human history. When our lord rose from the dead, He defeated death. God being a Holy God MUST punish sin. If God does not punish sin, then He is not a just God. Jesus was the sacrificial Lamb that paid the price. So you can attempt to get to heaven on your own. That simply means you will need to be perfect. You can not commit...

When troubles come our way, we have two choices. Make trouble our masters, or master trouble. If you make trouble your master then you will become bitter when a crisis arises. If trouble is the boss, you will say it is God’s fault I’m going through this. Even though you made the decision and messed up things without asking God what you should do. Everyone will go through heartaches and problems. T...

You can praise God by words of expression. You can praise him with songs. You can praise him with instruments, and even with dance. But it is also possible to praise Him with a pure heart without truly worshipping Him. But if it is true worship, then praise will follow. You see worship is an expression of reverence, and adoration. We praise Him because we reverence Him, and adore Him. For all of t...

What made the early church effected is that they had a singleness of mind that was lead by the Holy Spirit. We especially see this in the apostle Paul. When we allow the Holy Spirit to lead us, and our focus is on pleasing God first, and foremost. You will find that you can get to know the Lord Jesus better, the more the flesh dies. This is what made the early church spread the Gospel so effective...

We should pray daily that the Holy Spirit would guild our every decision. When we read God’s word, and pray, the Holy Spirit will show us how to overcome everything you are going through. If you are struggling with sins, or doubts, you should get to know God better. He will comfort your hearts, and help you overcome anything you are struggling with. This may mean you have to change some of the thi...

Another work of the Holy Spirit is to prevent us from falling into idolatry. Sometimes it is so subtle and if you are not walking in the Spirit, or sensitive to God’s Spirit you will not even know you have fallen into idolatry. As falling humans we are subject to making idols in our lives.
