God never changes, and his word is also unchangeable. These are undeniable tenants of the Christian faith. But does that God’s relationship with his people is unchanged? Could the role of the prophecy be different today than it was when Elijah walked the earth? And if so, what does this mean for the modern day […]

There are so many questions about the prophetic gifts. Many believe they no longer exist. Some are convinced they do. Most Christians seem unsure. We take an honest look at the scriptures to answer this very critical question: Does God still speak to us today?

We finish our series on the armor of God by looking that the one weapon we have: The Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God. And, of course, everyone knows that the Word of God means the bible… but what if everyone is wrong? What if Paul is telling us something more […]

The Helmet protects the head, and for us most importantly the mind. We all want our mind protected from spiritual attacks… But, how is it that Salvation is supposed to protect out mind? Are there “mind tricks” we need to learn? How does salvation play into that? BIBLE REFERENCES: Ephesians 6:13-17; 2 Corinthians 10:4-5; Romans […]

But how do we get the righteousness that protects? Is it just following a […]

We finish up the discussion of the “Belt of Truth” with looking at the final purpose of God’s truth in our lives: God’s Truth comes to convict. This does not mean condemn. And the difference is important…BIBLE REFERENCES: Ephesians 6:13-14; John 16:13; John 16:6; Psalm 26:1-4; 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18; James 5:13; Luke 11:2-5; 2 Corinthians […]

The Belt of Truth, as we learned in the previous sermon, is the center of everything. But it does far more than that for the Christian warrior. It also protects us from falsehood. Falsehood that attacks us has a special name: Deception. And we must guard against it because it can enter our lives in […]
