Sloppy Grace & Naive Thinking

Image
I am going to get up on a soapbox for a moment today.   I won’t apologize for my rant.   I think people in the church need to hear it.   There are two schools of thought (actually more but for the moment two I’m going to talk about) that are slipping into our churches and lowing the integrity of the church. The concept of sloppy grace has oozed its way into the churches.   It’s the everything you do is okay as long as you repent theory.   It’s the “I can go out and commit every sin possible and God will always love me anyhow”.   It’s the concept of “once saved always saved” mentality.   Just because you mumbled a prayer once it does not save you from your sin.   God wants us to strive for a holy and righteous lifestyle.   This does not mean if you mess up, then He’s going to drop a piano on your head and send you to hell.   It’s not like that at all.   But use this for example, if I go up and smack you then say I’m sorry...

Spiritual Motion Sickness?

It is well known in my family that I have a history of issues with motion sickness. I don’t remember when we officially discovered this: Maybe it was the time that I spent the day at the pool in the sun and then was put in the back seat of my grandparents fairly new car to travel through the hills of Southern Ohio and I puked everywhere that told us this, Or maybe it was the time my uncle decided to travel through the mountains of Gatlinburg with the side door open in the van.

Just like how one gets motion sickness in the physical it applies spiritually. James 1:6-8 (NIV) 6 But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, b...

Don't Fall For the Fake Jakes!

I hope all of you had an awesome Resurrection Weekend! He is Risen!! Several weeks ago I had someone claiming to be T.D. Jakes begin communication with me on twitter. At first I brushed him off thinking there was no way he was the real T.D. However this individual was persistent. We began exchanging a few direct messages back and forth. He then proceeded to invite me to go with himself and several other ministers over to Japan to preach over there. That was when I told him to email me at my website email. The conversation continued. At first I didn’t believe at all this was the real T.D. Jakes. However the more we exchanged emails the more I really thought it might. His phrasing on how he worded things sounded like the real T.D. The text emails were coming from Texas, and it was obvious this man spent a long time familiarizing himself with T.D. and his website because of the way he wove legitimate things about the real T. D. into the conversations. This went back a forth for several we...
