I’m not one for dancing on this side of death but I suppose I will indeed do some dancing in heaven. In fact, I’m sure I will delight in the glories of God by dancing.
It is true that dancing has gotten a bad rep through immorality and immodesty and of course this dishonors God. Read the rest of this entry »
For it is written “Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her” (Ephesians 5:25–26). Christ has profound love for his people. Christ paid an enormous price (that will take us an eternity to comprehend) to give his church the greatest gift that God could ever give. And that gift is Himself in full glory. That is the treasure that a Christian values. Read the rest of this entry »
John 3:16 is measured as the most widely known passage in scripture. For it is written, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” Do you recall the sacrifice in “gave his only Son?” Why is there not another way to save sinners? Why save sinners at all? Why the only divine Son? God’s only Son! Read the rest of this entry »
I never considered myself much of a musician or even a singer. In fact, I shy away from it. But in Heaven I believe God will unleash the creativity for me to perform and even create musical instruments and also sing. Yes, music and singing will be in Heaven.
John when he was taken up said this about music and singing, “And I heard a voice from heaven like the roar of many waters and like the sound of loud thunder.

My wife recently brought my new born son into the world. It was a special day for my wife and me along with other family members. We have been anticipating for this day to be closer to the 22nd of January. But through God’s providence and sovereign will He chose New Year’s Day (2011).
New Year’s Day has become the closest thing to a global public holiday. For most of the world this is a day of New Year resolutions. In fact, according to The Barna Group, 61% of the nations (U.S.) population has made resolutions sometime during their lives and 41% will make resolutions for this 2011 year.

What would you suppose a town or perhaps a city that Satan has completely taken over look like? Would you imagine bars and clubs being filled up? Would you imagine pornography rampant in every corner? Would you imagine no church, no sermons, no preaching, and no ministers? Would you imagine gangs, violence, sex, drugs, gun shootings, molestations, immorality, rape, murder, strife, deceit, or a complete and total chaos of life?
Let’s suppose that Satan took a vacation and God decided to turn us over to who we are. Read the rest of this entry »
