Devotional – The Ways and Ends of the Wicked – 12/17/2025

The following is from my good friend (even though we have yet to meet), Steve. I find it very appropriate for the season. All we (in America at least) have to do is look around to see that the focus for Christmas is that of the wicked (those who know not Christ). There is a … More Devotional – The Ways and Ends of the Wicked – 12/17/2025

Friday Feature Quote -“Misuse of God’s Law” – 12/12/2025

PREFACE I seem to be reading a lot about God’s Law. In a previous post, “Death of the Law,” the focus was on those who deny that God’s law is relevant today. Today’s devotional will examine Romans 7:7-12, focusing on the Misuse of God’s Law. There are many ways one can misuse or abuse God’s … More Friday Feature Quote -“Misuse of God’s Law” – 12/12/2025

Sunday Sermon Series – “God Promises”- 10/26/2025

COMMENTS I was tempted this morning to include one of the late Charlie Kirk’s masterful rebuttals here, in response to someone challenging him about the U.S. being founded by atheists. I figure y’all can look it up on YouTube, and the relief above is proof enough for today. One of the key ingredients in Charlie’s … More Sunday Sermon Series – “God Promises”- 10/26/2025

Devotional – “Judge Not?” – 10/22/2025

An article on this topic was previously published in October 2021. When the subject came across my email the other day, I decided to expand upon it. SCRIPTURE W/COMMENTS MATTHEW 7:1 “Judge not, that you be not judged. (ESV) When we read most English translations of this verse, it would appear pretty straightforward that we … More Devotional – “Judge Not?” – 10/22/2025

Devotional – “The Exclusivity of the Gospel” – 10/21/2025

October 16, 2025 by Steve The Exclusivity of the Gospel Charles Spurgeon, et al. The message of the gospel stands as a divine declaration of absolute truth in a world that hates absolutes. In an age intoxicated with pluralism and compromise, few doctrines are more offensive to human pride than the exclusivity of the gospel. Yet Scripture is crystal … More Devotional – “The Exclusivity of the Gospel” – 10/21/2025

Friday Feature Quote – “{True} Repentant Sinners” –

INTRO Romans 8:26 says that the Spirit helps with “groanings which cannot be uttered.” What are these groanings? Whose groanings are they? The common Puritan interpretation of Romans 8:26 attributed such groanings to the person praying by the help of the Holy Spirit, and not immediately to the Holy Spirit (compare Romans 8:15 and Galatians … More Friday Feature Quote – “{True} Repentant Sinners” –

Devotion – “Method of Daily Prayer Part IV” – 10/15/2025

We continue our series of excerpts from “Matthew Henry on a Practical Method of Daily Prayer.”1 These will be without the usual comments and study references. My hope is that people will be like the Bereans, as described in Acts 17:11, and will put Henry’s writing to the test. In beginning a time of prayer, Henry advised directing prayers … More Devotion – “Method of Daily Prayer Part IV” – 10/15/2025

Devotion – “Method of Daily Prayer Part I” – 10/07/2025

I am changing things up for a bit when I post excerpts from “Matthew Henry on a Practical Method of Daily Prayer.” These will be without the usual comments and study references. My hope is that people will be like the Bereans, as described in Acts 17:11, and will put Henry’s writing to the test. … More Devotion – “Method of Daily Prayer Part I” – 10/07/2025

Devotion/Study – “Usefulness of God’s Law” – 09/30/2025

COMMENT Last week, we examined what I titled “Death of the Law.” As in today’s Devotional, I relied on John MacArthur’s book, Before the Face of God, and the Baptist Catechism for the foundation of the post. Today, the sources remain the same, as the devotional is another of MaArthur’s from the same book. Here, … More Devotion/Study – “Usefulness of God’s Law” – 09/30/2025
