Is there witchcraft in the Church? (part four)
Is there witchcraft in the church? Here’s part four… Witchcraft, as I’ve shared in previous posts, isn’t necessarily about hexes, potions, and Ouija Boards. It IS about seduction, manipulation, deception, poisoning, and medication for the purpose of control. Galatians 5:19,20 mentions witchcraft as one of the works of the flesh. One doesn’t need to be…

Is there witchcraft in the Church? (part three)
God has placed within the church not only ministry gifts (specifically Apostles, Prophets, etc.), but also gifts of the Spirit to equip the various ministries. One group of gifts is what many refer to as the utterance gifts: tongues, interpretation of tongues, and prophecy. Another group is known as the revelation gifts: word of knowledge,…

Is there witchcraft in the Church? (part two)
Really. Throughout the New Testament we are taught the reality of the spirit realm, the power of the Name of Jesus, the miracle working power of the Spirit, and the need for the Body of Christ to know the difference between true and false manifestations. But witchcraft in the Church? That should be easy to…

Is there witchcraft in the Church? (part one)
Have you ever heard of such a thing? Witchcraft? In the church? “Man, you’re crazy! First of all, God wouldn’t allow it. And even if there was such a thing, we’d spot it right away.” That sounds wonderful, but it’s a lot of ignorance and pride mixed in with a ladle full of hot air.…

Are Preachers Ever Guilty Of Jealousy?
The biggest day of the year for church attendance has come and gone. Easter Sunday, the number one day of the year when pastors and church leaders around the globe attempt to woo the masses into visiting their church, and hopefully, become a regular member. Although I’m no longer a pastor, haven’t been for over…

How To Escape From Your Fantasy World
I can just hear some of your responses as you read the title of this post, “How to escape…” “Why would I want to escape? After all, I built my world as a place to escape TO, not from.” Maybe if you read a little bit more you’ll change your mind. Fantasy football, fantasy baseball,…

Are You Hiding In The Bushes?
I’d like to begin this post with two questions. The first – “Are you hiding in the bushes?” The second – “Who’s in the bushes with you?” Not long after God created Adam and Eve, not long after He blessed them and told them to be fruitful and multiply, and shortly after telling them they…

Do You Know What You Should Know?
How much stock do you put in old expressions? Here’s one that’s often used: “What you don’t know can’t hurt you.” I suppose on rare occasions what you don’t know can’t affect you, but generally just the opposite is true. What you don’t know can hurt you, and probably will. The Lord, through the prophet…

Does a lion roar in the forest?
Have you ever heard the roar of a lion? No, I’m not referring to Marlin Perkins’ old television show, “Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom”, which originally aired from 1963-1988. Have you heard the roar of a lion, up close and personal? I can’t recall hearing one, though the few times I’ve visited a zoo I’ve…

What are YOU Drinking?
Is it barely possible that some of God’s people are guilty of idolatry? Yep, it is barely possible. Am I saying it’s somewhat possible that some of those called of God to be salt and light are drinking the cup of demons? Yep, it is somewhat possible. And is it remotely possible, I said remotely,…
