The certainty that we will one day meet the King should shape the way we presently walk on earth. His return is not merely a future event to anticipate, but a present reality that calls us to holiness, faithfulness, and urgency. Those who are ready to meet Christ should live ready to represent Christ. “And so shall we ever be with the Lord” (1 Thessalonians 4:17).
The truth is a torch that needs to be held forth. In these days of darkness, the Church ought to be blazing the path of righteousness regardless of any opposition or persecution. "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven" (Matthew 5:16).
To God, it's not about being religious but being righteous. You see, too many people have a form of godliness but they're not formed by godliness. Such is Christ's righteousness in us and upon us. "'For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him" (2 Corinthians 5:21).
"The cause of God is never in danger: infernal craft is outwitted by infinite wisdom, and Satanic malice held in check by boundless power" (Charles Spurgeon). Translation, God wins! "The Lord catches the wise in their own craftiness, and the counsel of the cunning comes quickly upon them" (Job 5:13).
The stature of God stands behind the person (or people) who abide by the statutes of God. You see, the Lord is looking for a loyal heart to stand behind and set apart. "For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him" (2 Chronicles 16:9).
Having a certain faith in the midst of uncertain days always trusts in God's certain ways. In other words, you don't need to know it all when you know the One who holds it all. "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1).
It is incompatible to know that God bought you, while still living as if sin owns you. Mind you, in Christ, "you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s" (I Corinthians 6:20).
I haven’t stopped thinking about a question that came in during the final minutes of Wednesday night’s question-and-answer service. I recognize that many people have sincere and important questions surrounding this subject, so I wanted to reply with a more organized answer. Someone asked, “Why doesn’t Landmark Church have a deliverance ministry?”
With yet another senseless tragedy, I know it is easy to become fatigued by sympathy. I mean, you cannot turn on the news these days without bad news dominating our eyes and ultimately creating anger, angst, or apathy within our hearts. Yet for the individual who calls them-self a "Christian," we must remember how Jesus said "in this world...
Being out of prison for this long, you'd probably think that I wouldn't still be in contact with so many jail-birds. No, not my former peers! I’m referring to my new friends at the seashore--seagulls. You see, seagulls were a common sight in the big yard and by watching them, I found some interesting parallels...
It is quite easy to be discontent with the place where God has placed you. Actually, it is because we lose sight of God's grace that we fight the place where God has chosen to plant us. But when we recognize that we are right where we need to be--which means we are surrendered to God's will--we become trees of righteousness, planted by the Lord for His glory through...
[Admin Note: This is a journal entry from Matthew's time in prison, recorded on October 16th, 2010] I failed terribly today, and I have to admit, it was well worth it. I tend to suffer most in the recovery following these moments of failure, but trust that the more I suffer, the more I will eventually have to offer others. Please allow me to explain: I allowed a trivial incident to steal my peace today and I learned a valuable lesson in the process: I can only be
