The FLOT Line Show

As a Christian, the best thing you can do is respect God and heed His mandates. When you obey God's ordinances, you get three things: length of days, long life, and peace. To reverence God and His Word is the most morally pure thing you can do. “The laws of God are correct and obedience causes rejoicing and enlightenment” (Ps 19:8). God’s ordinances provide warnings and unlimited blessings while y...

Do not complain is a mandate from God. Complaining is a sin and the sin nature’s number one pop-off valve. Complaining and serving the Lord with a superabundance of happiness are mutually exclusive. “Do all things without complaining or arguments so that you will prove yourself to be blameless and innocent children of God above reproach in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom...

Think about what you’re missing by not seeing with the eyes of your soul, by not having faith. Faith is the muscle of the spiritual life. “Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen” (Heb 11:1). Without faith you can’t please God. “Without faith, it is impossible to please God, for he that comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of them th...

Jesus told His disciples, and you, to get in the boat and quit making excuses (Matt. 8:21-22). You need to know the Bible to get God’s direction for your life. The Lord instructs you to do something very simple—obey Him. But you can’t obey what you don’t know, and you will never know what God has for you without learning the Scripture. “We have this treasure in our earthly vessels so that the surp...

The power of Christ is accessed through faith by means of the ministry of the Holy Spirit. “God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power and of love and of a sound mind” (2 Tim 1:7). Jesus Christ's spiritual life during His earthly ministry is our template for how to live the Christian life. The template is found in the Word of God. It is the mind of Christ. The Lord wants you to yoke up wit...

If you are going to evaluate your spiritual life properly you must not have an unrealistic self-image or a misguided assumption about what impresses God. “But he who glories, let him glory in the Lord. For it is not he who commends himself who is approved but whom the Lord commends.” (2 Cor 10:17-18) “For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted....

There is a connection between what you think and your health. Anxiety produces mental-attitude sins, such as fear, anxiety and worry. Constant mental tension will eventually affect your health. The faith-rest drill is concentrating on God for perfect peace. “You will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on You” (Is 26:3). God mandates that you should not be anxious about anything. “Be an...

People testing is one of the biggest problems you’ll have as you advance spiritually. The solution to people testing combines personal love for God and impersonal love for all mankind. Without this virtue love, you will surrender control of your life to others. “Be not deceived; evil company corrupts good morals” (1 Cor 15:33). We create evil companions by getting close to those who distract us fr...

To reach spiritual maturity, the Christian must contain emotions. The Christian life is lived through thought, not emotions. “Let this mind be in you that was also in Christ Jesus” (Phil 2:5).  If you let your emotions control you, you will lose your direction and be held hostage to fear and intimidation. You go through a lot of pain and suffering because you let your emotions control you. “As a m...

This might be the year you discover your destiny in Christ Jesus. “See then that you walk circumspectly not like a fool but as a wise person, redeeming the time because the days are evil” (Eph 5:15-16). God wants to make you rich spiritually, to give you a wonderful, meaningful, full life. You have a personal guide for life—God. Go to the Word under the filling of the Holy Spirit and in prayer ack...

As a Christian, you are never alone in facing the difficulties of life and time. Jesus Christ controls history. There’s never a reason for you to be lonely or afraid. “Perfect love casts out fear” (1 John 4:18). This is the secret to handling fear and anxiety. The believer who loves God will be obedient to His mandates. “Fear not for I am with you. Do not be dismayed for I am your God. I will stre...

Be encouraged to re-present Christ to your family and friends, face whatever comes and glorify God to the maximum. Being a fool for Christ means you are dedicated to your Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and His will for your life. “We are fools on account of Christ” (1 Cor 4:10). You have an unwavering devotion to Him. “You have been bought for a price, therefore glorify God in your body” (1 Cor 6:20...

No one can gain eternal favor from God by means of their holy lifestyle or clean living. “But as He who has called you is holy, so be you holy in all manner of conversation” (1 Pet 1:15). You are holy in your position in Christ Jesus. When you are filled with the Holy Spirit you are living a holy life. Your advance to spiritual maturity, the holiness you want to attain, is a gradual process only a...

God’s plan is not for you to be discouraged in times like these. Here’s what God says, “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity, to give you a future and a hope’” (Jer 29:11). “Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation and be constant in prayer” (Rom 12:12). It’s not an elected leader who can turn around the course of history. It’s only you...

Our salvation is secured by faith. “Having been justified by faith [not works] we have peace with God through the Lord Jesus Christ” (Rom 5:1). Faith is trust in God and His Word. The more of the Word of God you know, the more resources of faith you have. “We walk by faith and not by sight” (2 Cor 5:7).  If you want to live by faith, you must exercise your faith and this develops it. Learning and...

God expects you to get up after a mistake and keep driving ahead. Let go of past mistakes and failures. "Forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus” (Phil 3:13-14). Remorse is not sinful but when it turns into guilt it changes to sin. Guilt is part of the emotional complex of sins. Guilt mo...

You are the solution to the problems in this nation, not the President or Congress. Fulfilling the unique spiritual life God gives you is the primary factor in history. “Let him that glories glory in this, that he understands and knows Me” (Jer 9:23-24). There is a FOG across this nation. Failure of spiritual leadership, open rebellion in the streets to the rule of law and God’s Word rejected and...

If you don’t have a fantastic life, it’s your own fault. Happiness is a state of the soul. The secret to happiness is learning and applying God’s Word in your life and advancing to spiritual maturity. “Happiness belongs to those who hear My Father’s Word and keep it” (Luke 11:28). God’s happiness, true happiness, the tranquility of soul, a relaxed mental attitude, and perfect contentment can be yo...

The secret to contentment is being occupied with the Lord Jesus Christ, problem-solving device number 10. “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Phil 4:12-13). Acquiring Biblical wisdom to build a FLOT line in your soul’s mentality is the true path to inner happiness and contentment. “The peace of God which surpasses all comprehension will guard your hearts and your minds in Chri...

The big lie of the cosmic system is that people and circumstances will make you happy. The cosmic system creates doubt and confusion. If you doubt, the first thing you’re going to doubt is God’s Word and you’re going to get confused, especially if you’re listening to the wrong pastor. The cosmic system stirs up chaos. We call it the FOG - failure of spiritual leadership, open rebellion against God...

Disobedience to God’s rules leads to rebellion and ruin - personally and for a nation. The one stabilizing factor that steadies the ship and calms the storm is always authority. There has to be an authority and this establishes the rules we live under. “Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities” (Rom 13:1). This is a divine mandate, a rule. The fool rejects God’s Word and this is rebell...

Christians are peculiar people because we have different mindsets and particular callings. We don’t think as the world thinks but instead with a divine viewpoint, thinking with the mind of Christ. “Be not conformed to this world” (Rom 12:1). Divine viewpoint gives Christians understanding, insight and discernment. Christians don’t fear death. “For to me, living is Christ and dying is gain” (Phil 1...

As a Christian, you are in the royal family of God. You are in full-time royal service for the Lord as both a believer priest and a royal ambassador. “You are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood” (1 Pet 2:9). With the royal priesthood we represent ourselves and with the royal ambassadorship we represent God to all mankind. All distinctions are erased at the point of salvation. We are all one i...

A lazy believer is not willing to put forth the effort required to reach spiritual maturity. You must see your own spiritual malnutrition. “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge” (Hosea 4:6). God wants you to grow up to be spiritually strong and healthy re-presenting the Lord Jesus Christ. This is a mandate from God. “Study to show yourself approved unto God” (2 Tim 2:15).  Knowing God is...

Satan is infiltrating churches and schools as a means to shut down client nation America. Many Christians are accepting being dumbed down. Satan is successfully planting his own ministers in churches to teach his doctrines. If you don’t study under a well-qualified pastor to grow spiritually and learn divine wisdom and discernment, you won’t see Satan’s infiltration. “Some will fall away from the...
