What makes the Christian life different? One of my favorite Scripture verses answers that question. The apostle Paul explained the difference in his message to the believers in Galatia.

What is the difference between joy and happiness? One originates internally, the other is external. In Paul’s letter to the Christians of Galatia, he wrote that “the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.” (Galatians 5:22-23) More →

“Whatever you call him, we all worship the same god.” Have you ever heard someone make such a statement? Have you made it yourself? The truth is, God sent His people into captivity for buying into that type of thinking. More →

“It won’t affect me unless I let it.” That is one of Satan’s most effective strategies. Christians who believe they can do whatever they please and not be affected by it, are already deceived. More →

What’s Getting to Will?

“It doesn’t really affect me.” That’s the way we usually excuse a questionable activity. God created humans of three parts: body, soul, and spirit. In a believer’s walk with the Lord, the soul is the primary target of Satan. Why? More →

“We are more than conquerors” (Romans 8:37), is how the apostle Paul refers to the effectiveness of Christians through the Lord Jesus Christ. I must admit that I don’t see the reality of that statement in general among believers today. More →
