How many of you are boycotting Beauty and the Beast because there is a homosexual agenda by the director? Do you boycott movies with premarital sex and adultery too? Is there a difference and how careful should Christians be in what they watch, thus support? This meme was shared around Facebook: The woman who posted this also wrote, “It must be said. So if you’re not going to see Beauty and the Beast, I hope y’all didn’t go see the…
Normally, I don’t write posts on Saturday and Sunday but I felt compelled to write one today to explain my comment policy. I have done this in the past, but it needs to be explained again. My blog is a teaching blog. I am not going to publish comments that teach things that are contrary to what I teach. If you have an honest question, that is great, but I get comments that are longer than my post explaining why…
There are few times in the Bible that has a strong warning after a command. Look at these two verses closely and examine the strong warning after each. “I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully” (1 Timothy 5:14) The command is for younger women to marry, bear children, and guide the home. The warning is to give none occasion to the adversary (the Devil) to…
“Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidencesteadfastunto the end;While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation” (Hebrews 3:12-15). From…
As many of you have noticed, there are a lot of younger women teaching other women the precepts of Titus 2:4, 5. It is most likely due to the void left by older women who are not obeying the Lord in this area. But are they the ones that should be teaching these things according to the Word? We know that younger women should love and obey their husbands, love their children by raising them up in the nurture and…
Those of you who have read my blog for a long probably remember the postwritten two years ago about the “Christian” woman and famous blogger, Glennon Doyle Melton, who did this after her pastor preached a great sermon: After he finished, I stood up in my pew and clapped and cheered and WOOT WOOTED and pumped my fists and well, my church is not that kind of church. And so Craig {her husband} said, “SIT DOWN HONEY. HONEY, sit down.”…
“Why do you hate women so much? Why do you hate that women now are allowed to be intelligent and get an education? Why do you hate that women can have jobs and earn their own money? Why do you hate that women are allowed to contribute to society? Why do you despise yourself so much that you must belittle every other woman? Is it because you see other women living the lives they want and envy their happiness? You…
Many years ago, Ken and I read Oswald Chambers. We are now reading Charles Spurgeon because we enjoy his writings more because he understood our new lives in Christ clearer than Oswald did who is the type that focuses on us as “sinners” and Spurgeon on us as “saints” once we are His. One of my dad’s friends said that reading Oswald was like drinking castor oil! Something I did learn from Oswald’s writings, however, is the term, “self-pity is…
Many Christians teach that we should “die daily” and “take up our cross daily.” What does this mean? (This was a question asked ofMichael Pearl and he answered on a video.) Okay, let’s look at that. That’s a commonly misunderstood concept. Always consider the context. He says, “If any man come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow me” (Luke 9:23). Jesus is preparing his disciples for his crucifixion. He’s been telling them about…
Everyone seems to rave about what feminism has done for women and how great it is for them. I happened upon an article called 11 Ordinary Things Women Weren’t Allowed to Do in the 50s and 60s. As you can imagine, I was curious to see what great things feminism has accomplished. Number one: Open a bank account. Okay, this is an okay one, although I would have been fine without it. My dad supported me until I got married…
