The Death Of Jesus

The Death Of Jesus

It’s only natural that people talk about the birth of Jesus around Christmas time. People all around the world celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. It is an exciting time. But why was Jesus born in the first place? Why did He leave Heaven to come to the very earth He created and be born of the virgin Mary and the Holy Spirit? Why did Jesus do this? He was born to die. Jesus came to save His people from their sins. So in addition to everyone celebrating the birth of Christ, it makes sense that we should also talk about the death of Jesus.  [Read more…]

Jesus Came To Save His People From Their Sins

Ministry Update December 24, 2017

I tried something different on Wednesday since there weren’t any classes in session at MSU because of Christmas break.  I held a sign at the corner of Glenstone and Battlefield during the lunch hour. The sign states: Jesus Came To Save His People From Their Sins. Are You One Of His People? Have You Repented And Surrendered Your Life To Jesus? It was only five days until Christmas. Most people were probably thinking about shopping or lunch. Maybe some were even thinking about Christmas – about the birth of Jesus. So, was it wrong to bring up the fact that Jesus came to save His people from their sins?  [Read more…]

Love And Obedience

Love And Obedience

We frequently run into people while out street witnessing that have a wrong view of God’s love. Since the Bible says God is love, they wrongly assume that because God is love, He will overlook sin. After all, He is love. But the Bible doesn’t say God overlooks sin because He is love. If that were the case, then Jesus died in vain. But He did not die in vain. Jesus didn’t die on the cross for guilty sinners so we could sin freely. No, He suffered, bled and died to save His people from their sins (Matthew 1:21). Instead of this wrong, low view of love, what does God want from us? He wants love and obedience.  [Read more…]

Kelly Blessed Many Times

Kelly Blessed Many Times
Ministry Update December 17, 2017

Friday night it was great having Kelly join me witnessing in downtown in Springfield, MO. But Kelly was the one who received “many blessings.” Yes, Kelly was blessed many times. What I mean by that is what Jesus said in Matthew 5:11 that you are blessed when people insult and persecute you falsely for His sake. Well, Kelly was blessed many times Friday night.  [Read more…]

No Other Name

I think the post No Other Name Under Heaven was just the second one I posted. It’s a short one but it gets to the heart of the matter. What name are you trusting in? There is no other name under Heaven given among men whereby we must be saved. Jesus, precious Jesus is the only Savior. Is He your Lord and Savior? Have you repented and surrendered your life fully and completely to Him?

Debate Quitting Atheist

Ministry Update December 10, 2017

I was bringing a message on Wednesday at Missouri State University when Quinn the skateboarding atheist stopped and gave me back the booklet How God Reveals Himself Through Science. Quinn insisted that he had to stop after a few pages because the booklet isn’t science. He continued stating that he could only make it through a few pages. The supposedly science believer ended up being a debate quitting atheist. Instead of discussing our different interpretations of science experiments listed in the book, Quinn made some mocking notes on the first few pages and quit.  [Read more…]

Why Do You Believe In God?

Why Do You Believe In God?

Last week at Missouri State University, a student asked me, “Why do you believe in God?” This young man introduced himself to me earlier in the year as being an atheist (and even included his sexual preference which I didn’t ask about). But last week in addition to wanting to know if I believe in science (which I do – biblical science), he also wanted to know: why do you believe in God?  [Read more…]

Bible Comes Alive

Ministry Update December 3, 2017

I love God’s word and I love reading the Bible. God constantly reveals truth to us through the Holy Spirit while reading the Bible, no matter how many times we’ve read a passage of Scripture. What’s really fascinating is how the Bible comes alive while out street witnessing. Many times we’ll be open-air preaching and just right on cue, God sends a mocker walking by that confirms His truth contained in His word. It never gets old seeing God proving the reliability of Bible when He makes it come alive.  [Read more…]

Billions And Billions Of Years

Billions and Billions of Years

When I was a kid, it seems like school books used to claim that the universe was 4.5 million years old. Now, the latest theories are that the universe is around 14 billion years old. (Some even claim up to 20 billion years old). It seems the harder the secular society tries to explain the age of the universe; the answer tends to be just add more billions and billions of years. But no matter how many billions and billions of years they keep pushing it out, they still can’t explain how it began.  [Read more…]

Do You Believe In Science?

Ministry Update November 26, 2017

I witnessed at Missouri State University on Monday November 29, 2017. While handing out tracts on the way to open-air preach, one student said no to a tract, but she smiled and said that she’s a Christian. I don’t think she could tell the tract was a Gospel tract, so I’m guessing she realizes that I share the Gospel weekly at the campus. Another student smiled and waved as she walked by (a different student from last week). A couple of students recorded as they walked past. But the skateboarding atheist rolled by me. I was talking about how billions and billions of years do not explain how the universe came into existence. He stopped and came up to me and wanted to know, “Do you believe in science?”  [Read more…]
