Various Christian Topics
 
The following articles are studies on various Scriptural topics, and I pray that they will be a blessing to you!

  • How to Hear the Voice of God
    In order to be effective in leading people to Jesus, laying hands on the sick, casting out demons, and following the plan of God for our lives, it is very important that we learn how to hear God's voice and how to discern His leading and His timing. God speaks to us, but many of us don't know what His voice sounds like. You can hear the voice of God, and this article will teach you how.

  • Do You Believe What the Bible Says?
    Several years ago, God showed me something which shocked me and challenged all of my Christian beliefs and theology. I pray that as you read this article you will "see" your Christian views, opinions, beliefs, doctrines, and theology in a new light. When I saw this truth, it set me on a path which caused me to revise some of my Christian beliefs, and I thank God for that. I pray that the same thing will happen to you (if it is God's will) as you read this article.

  • Loving and Praising Jesus
    Do you love Jesus with all your heart? Do you love Jesus with all your soul? Do you love Jesus with all your mind? Do you love Jesus with all your strength?

    We are commanded to love Him that much! (see Matthew 22:37-38, Mark 12:30).

    The purpose of this article is to help you take your love and praise and adoration and devotion towards Jesus to new levels in order to deepen and strengthen your intimate love relationship with your heavenly Bridegroom!

  • Covenants, Dispensations, and the Ten Commandments
    Throughout history, God has made covenants with people. What are those covenants? Are any of them still in effect? Do any of them relate to Christians today? In addition to the covenants, throughout human history God has administered or dispensed His authority in different ways during different time periods. What are the different dispensations? Which dispensation are we in now, and how does it affect us? Also, how do the Ten Commandments relate to Christians? These questions are addressed in this 3-part series.

  • Must Christians Tithe Ten Percent?
    For a number of years I was a cheerful tither, but after prayerfully re-evaluating this issue I no longer see tithing as a principle for Christians to follow.

  • The Biblical Evidence Against the Theories of Evolution
    This article compares the Creation account and the theories of evolution, point by point, and it shows that they contradict each other on essentially every point. They cannot be combined into a single explanation as many Christians want to do. The entire Bible is completely consistent and is completely in opposition to man's theories of evolution (both the evolution of the universe and the evolution of humans).

  • Praying in the Spirit Equals Praying in Tongues
    After studying every New Testament passage on speaking in tongues, reflecting on them, praying about them, and reading numerous Bible commentaries, my conclusion is that "praying in the Spirit" and "praying in tongues" are simply two ways of saying the same thing.
