Do we need another Jeremiah?

Do we need another Jeremiah to warn America of impending judgement and to turn back to God’s Word?   No, we don’t need another Jeremiah.

Who Is Fighting for the Next Generation

by Mike Riddle Two statistics that should concern every pastor is that less than 5% of Christian youth have a biblical worldview and over 60% are leaving the church. Contributing to this problem is that we are allowing Hollywood to define what love, sex, marriage, and even gender, should be. In addition, the secular school …

Semper Fi

It is a wonderful time to be a Bible believing Christian. Not because it is getting easier, but because it is getting harder. We live in a country that has become more and more hostile to the Bible. This means the harvest is plenty and there are many opportunities to be a witness for Jesus …

The Case for Apologetics Examples from Jesus

If pastors want their congregation to be more Christ like, strengthen their faith in an age of doubt, and prepare young people to repel attacks on their worldview, then why don’t more pastors teach apologetics in their church? On numerous occasions Jesus practiced apologetics. – John 4:5-40 (The woman at the well) – Mat 21:24-27 …

NOT the Gospel

These statements are NOT the Gospel. The church needs to start teaching the whole Gospel which starts in the first three chapters of Genesis: God’s perfect creation, God’s first warning, Adam and Eve’s sin (the Fall), why there is death and suffering, what we need to be saved from, why we need a Savior, and …

Thousands NOT Billions

Did you know there are at least 11 Biblical evidences supporting the days of creation were literal days. There are no Biblical evidences supporting the days were long ages without adding something that is not directly stated Scripture.

What authority should we believe?

Why do so many pastors listen to someone else about what to believe about the creation account when they can read and study it for themselves. The first thing to understand about the creation account in Genesis 1 is that it is not a scientific issue; it is a Biblical authority issue.

And God said, “that’s Very Good”!

Did you know adding millions of years into the Bible is an attack on the character of God and His Word? In Genesis 1:31 God calls everything He made “very good”. Adding millions of years would mean God called death, disease and struggle very good. However, Scripture teaches that death is an enemy (1 Cor …

Secular thinking

Secular thinking (evolutionism and moral relativism) creates many challenges for youth ministry. Are the youth in your church being taught how to answer the following 11 challenges?

Not Far Away

“If it is a religious position to say, ‘Jesus is Lord of all, and by Him and through Him all things exist,’ is it not also a religious position to say – in so many words, or lack thereof – ‘Christ and the Bible are irrelevant to our discussion of biology, physics and math?’” Christian …

“And God said”

Some “Christians” claim the Bible does not say how God created, therefore, He could have used the big bang. This claim is an attack on the character of God and His Word.

Man’s Opinion or Truth

What is driving the controversy about biblical creation? It is not just non-believers who promote evolutionism. It is also those in the church who refuse to believe the plain reading of God’s Word in Genesis. If Genesis 1 does not mean what it states, then when does the Bible mean what it states and how …

The Word of God

We cannot win the battle by using our own wisdom because the battle is a spiritual battle (2 Cor 10:3-4). Our best weapon against the teaching of evolution, all false doctrines and false religions is the Word of God and not our knowledge of science or philosophy. Scripture must be our standard. It is a …
