  • Fear or Faith

    There are many things we can fear.  We can fear what an evil person might do to us.  We can fear the all-powerful God of heaven.  We can fear animals such as lions or even spiders.  We can fear lightning, devastating storms, floods, and earthquakes.  We can fear heights, tight quarters, public speaking, or even […]

  • November to March 2020

    An URGENT APPEAL for our brothers and their families in the Philippines. The Corona Virus is infecting the Philippines and the president has ordered a national quarantine.  Evidently this quarantine is confining 50+ million people to their homes with a few exceptions, such as essential services, food suppliers and some essential factories.  This quarantine is […]

  • February 1, 2020

    Relative to our work for the Lord in Mexico, my last report was September 2019.  Here is the since that time.  In November, we visited the churches of Los Mochis and Las Flores in the state of Sinaloa as well as the churches of Tekax and Bechanchin in the state of Yucatan.  Our purposes were […]

  • Fear or Love

    I have discovered that people have different reasons for becoming a Christian.  Many respond because of fear.  They know their sinfulness and don’t want to go to the lake of fire spoken of in Revelation 21:8 “But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the […]

  • Mercy

    The world will tell us that we deserve lots of things.  We deserve to be treated fairly; we deserve certain benefits from the government; we deserve respect; we deserve a good price on something.  They mean that these things are owed to us; they are our right.  If we don’t get what we deserve, we […]

  • Love Covers Sin

    As Christians, we are to love one another.  Others will know we are Christians by the love that we have for one another (John 13:35).  We share much in common with our fellow Christian as opposed to those in the world.  We share a common heavenly Father, a common Savior, a common salvation, a common […]

  • Draw Near to God

    Jesus gave His life as a sacrifice for us.  He took the penalty for our sins.  He is our High Priest to the Father.  God has now made a new covenant or contract with us. Hebrews 10:16-17 “’This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days’, says the Lord: ‘I will […]

  • Faith, Great or Small?

    We understand that faith is essential to us as Christians.  We are saved by grace through faith.  Ephesians 2:8 “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God.”  We are justified by faith.  Romans 3:28 “Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by […]

  • When Will Jesus Return?

    Jesus promised to return for us.  John 14:1-3 “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me.  In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.  And if I go and prepare a place […]

  • Our Covenant

    After the flood, God made a covenant with every living creature on the earth.  Genesis 9:12-13 “And God said: ’This is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:  I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be […]
