Today’s Tweets

The whole point of church is to grow in Christ and become more like Him.

…..

If the HOLY Spirit is in you then you’re very interested in holiness.

…..

Billions of galaxies out there.

The Universe is big.

Even if there were only one galaxy in the universe it would be massive, but there’s billions of them.

…..

Saw today the “pillars of creation” images from the James Webb Space Telescope. Two things came to mind: The images are 6500 light years away, so they are images of what it looked like 6500 years ago. And they report to have proof of stars forming in these images. So, we have proof stars were forming as recently as 6500 years ago. Interesting from a Biblical perspective.

Young stars, young planets?

It’s interesting that we can see back in time, as it were, to around the time the Bible says creation happened.

If this pic proves there are young stars then there also must be young planets.

Let’s see a pic from 7000 light years away.

If I’m asked, ‘Do I believe in a young earth?’, I would answer that with a question, Did Jesus believe in a young earth?

What Jesus believed is reliable, for He is the incarnate Son of God, God in the flesh.

In John 10:35 He said, “the scripture cannot be broken”.

It’s recorded on numerous occasions that He held the Jewish scriptures up as the authoritative word of God.

He never edited the book of Genesis.

So, my point is, because of who Jesus Christ is, you’re on safe ground if you believe what He believed.

And you’re wrong if you don’t.

…..

There’s only Jesus, there’s nothing else, and if you have Him you have life.

‘He who has the Son has life’, the scripture says.

……

Because man was made in the image of God he was made a spiritual creature, and, as such, he is made in such a way to believe and to function by belief, therefore, man either believes the truth or he believes a lie, he cannot believe nothing, unless he is a vegetable.

…..

As Jesus is the only person to ever cure physical blindness, He’s also the only person to ever cure spiritual blindness: giving sight to the blind, physically and spiritually.

…..

The Creator knows His own creation very well. He knows you and I very well. He gives life and breath to every creature.

…..

God is not silent.

He sent His Son into this world.

Hear Him.

…..

If you could experience everything this planet has to offer it would still be nothing compared to experiencing Heaven.

And to experience Heaven will be to come face to face with the risen Lord Jesus Christ.

…..

One day, when you stand before Jesus Christ to give an account of your life, will you be able to say, ‘I know Him!’ ?

….

You could no easier escape God’s law than you could the law of gravity.

God’s law still applies to people regardless of what they believe.

The same as the law of gravity still applies regardless of whether you believe in it.

The law of gravity doesn’t discriminate.

Neither do God’s laws.


“Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.” (1 Cor. 69-11)

…..

“And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books.” (Rev. 20:12)

Books. A biography on every person who ever lived. Flattering to think there’s a book being written about you? Maybe not.

……

A commercial “prophet” always appeals to something in your flesh.

If I believe the commercial “prophets” on Twitter I come to the conclusion that I am the center of the Universe and God exists to serve me.

…..

Contrary to the left wing narrative, the beliefs of others, and their expression of those beliefs, can’t possibly harm you, it’s only their actions which could cause harm.

If someone preaches the earth is flat he is not harming me, is he? Even if he tries his best to convince me, he’s still not harmed me. Only the unbalanced would think someone else’s beliefs have traumatized them.

If any religion gets on its soapbox and insists it is the truth, it has not harmed me.

It’s a fundamental human right to believe what you want to believe and tell the world if you feel you need to.

….

You can’t discuss politics without touching on moral issues, so, then, it’s going to be a difficult discussion when people have different concepts of morality.

How do you measure morality?

What will be your yardstick?

Morality becomes a very murky debate and tends toward hypocrisy when there’s no moral absolutes.

……

“But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear.” (1 Peter 3:15)

This means someone who has real hope in them has such a tangible hope that it can sometimes be recognized by unbelievers.

……

A divided heart is simply one which has some desires which agree with God’s desires and also some which do not.

…..

Because Jesus Christ is LIFE, His presence means life, and His absence means death.

…..

Read yesterday, “Everything we need to know about God can be seen in the Cross of Calvary”.

…..

There’s only one Man who lived a perfect life and is therefore a perfect Man.

Believe Him.

…..

With many of the people mentioned in the Bible, God had a purpose for their lives, and He fulfilled that purpose in them.

What about you?

Do our lives serve His purpose?

Our natural inclination is to serve our own purpose.

…..

In Heaven, no one loves themselves.

It’s kinda different.

…..

False equivalence: Many people have falsely predicted the date of Jesus’ return, therefore this is proof He is not returning soon.

No. It doesn’t prove a thing regarding His return.

Or is it a Strawman?

There’s a false equivalence when people say that the fact that the Old Covenant has been superceded by the New Covenant means God has finished with the Jewish people and has no plan to save the nation and bring them into the New Covenant..

…or to say that the present blindness of the Jews in seeking to restart the OT sacrificial system is a proof that the reformation of Israel has no prophetic significance…

False logic.

…..

“Why isn’t the opposite of ‘pro-life’ referred to as ‘pro-death’?”

—Jack Hibbs

…..

“For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works.” (Titus 2:11-14)

No theological jargon here, such as people get tied up with nowadays. We’re looking for Jesus to return, described as His “glorious appearing”. A secret return would not be a “glorious appearing”.

This is our blessed hope. All generations were expected, by God, to be looking for Jesus’ glorious appearing.

And those who died in Christ were not disappointed, for to be “absent from the body is to be present with the Lord”.

And if we should die before Jesus returns we’ll also not be disappointed, and will miss out on nothing.

For when Christ returns He is bringing all those who died in Christ with Him.

He “redeems us from every lawless deed”. He purifies us by washing us in His own blood.

And He gives us a holy zeal to do His good works, to express His goodness to others.

…..

“We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.” (2 Corinthians 5:8)

Instant transportation. It’s as if you are standing on the street in London, then you close your eyes for a moment, and when you open your eyes you’re standing on the street in New York. One second before you were in London. Now you’re in New York.

Absent from the body, present with the Lord.

…..

Anything that’s not true is bad.

…..

“You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.” (John 8:44)

The devil was once an Archangel. He was the first liar, and kind of invented lying. He created a lie in his own mind and believed the lie he created. No one lied to him, he thought up the concept all by himself.

Imagine creating a lie and then believing it, knowing it’s a lie?

The devil knows he is lying, but his children don’t seem to know that their father has conned them.

The devil created lying, and therefore it’s in his DNA to lie, and to cause his children to believe a lie.

So, there is a dubious, dark, shadowy spiritual inheritance we have inherited from our father, the devil.

We need to exchange this father of liars for the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

We need a new heart.

If we cannot accept what Jesus said then we don’t love the truth. His truth only hurts and offends those still clinging to a lie.

…..

Judgment Day – the ultimate fact checking by the ultimate Fact Checker.

….

The indwelling Holy Spirit always rings true with the written word He inspired.

….

Any thought concerning the true nature of God should excite us – make our spirit soar, longing to be with Him face to face

…..

It’s a mistake to seek to experience peace of mind or soul but not seek to be reconciled to God through Jesus Christ and experience His peace.

…..

To a very thirsty man, just plain water is the sweetest drink on the planet.

Why?

Because it’s life.

Think about the spiritual equivalent.
