SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP AND CHURCH HEALTH

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010

  By Ken Blue  “(Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men which were upon the face of the earth.)” Numbers 12:3.  When searching for an example of a pastor, we cannot find anyone better than Moses. He is called the meekest man on earth. Some people confuse meekness with weakness. Therefore, [...]

THE RIGHT RESPONSE TO SUFFERING

Thursday, June 24th, 2010

By Ken Blue Every faith healer ought to get on the same rocket ship and blast off into outer space on a one-way trip! However, before they leave, they should get on their knees and apologize to a great Christian like Joni Eareckson . To accuse God’s people of not being healed because of a [...]

WHY SOME CHURCH MEMBERS CANNOT READ THE BIBLE

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

By Ken Blue I believe it is fair to say that 90% of professing Christians have no idea of about the overview and the theme of the Bible. The reason is, most pastors have not mastered it themselves. The Bible must be rightly divided, and those divisions must be taught constantly if believers are to [...]

THE SECOND TIME

Monday, June 21st, 2010

By Ken Blue My son sent me a text message, reminding me that Joseph, Moses, and Jesus were all rejected by their brethren at first, and then they were accepted at a second event. Many of you know the story of Joseph and his brothers. “ Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, [...]

SWEET WATERS AND SECRET BREAD

Sunday, June 20th, 2010

By Ken Blue “Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant.” Proverbs 9:17. Adam and Eve were told not to eat of the tree, and were warned that death would follow disobedience. They ate anyway, and both died. What was it that blinded them to abandon all reason and go against common [...]

THE SICK SIDE OF ISLAM

Thursday, June 17th, 2010

B y Ken Blue Are Muhammad Parvez, and Waqas Parvez, just two more radical Muslims who have “hijacked” Islam’s peaceful religion by killing their youngest daughter for prides sake? I don’t believe they are, and neither does the Muslim world. Their silence is deafening. If Islam does not teach “honour murder,” where are the Muslims [...]

DON’T DOTE OR SURMISE

Wednesday, June 16th, 2010

By Ken Blue “If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; 4 He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, 5 Perverse disputings [...]

COVENANT THEOLOGY

Monday, June 14th, 2010

By Ken Blue The American Heritage Dictionary defines “Covenant” as:  “… n. 1. A binding agreement; a compact. 2. Law. A formal sealed  agreement or contract. 3. In the Bible, God’s promise to the human race.” Dake, in his reference Bible list 15 major covenants. (See notes on Genesis, P.57). “ It was not until the [...]

SHOULD CHURCHES CONTINUE TO GROW

Friday, June 11th, 2010

By Ken Blue “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” Proverbs 3:5-6 Regardless of the choice one makes, we cannot argue with the fact that God wants His church to witness to the lost. If [...]
