The Meaning of Christ

Do you know the meaning of Christ? You’ve heard of Jesus Christ. People say it like Christ is Jesus’ last name. Others say Jesus Christ emphatically like a curse word. They may not even realize what they are really saying, but they are still blaspheming Jesus’ Holy name just the same. People say Jesus Christ, but what is the meaning of Christ?

Again, Christ is not Jesus’ last name. Christ is a title. Like King Jesus or Lord Jesus. Christ means Messiah. The Messiah was the one prophesied about in the Old Testament – the Messiah, the Anointed One. The promised Christ or Messiah is a Deliverer of His people. Christ is a savior. Not just any savior, but the Savior of His people.

Will God Be Angry Forever?

Psalm 85:5 states: Will you (God) be angry with us forever?  Will you prolong your anger to all generations? Will God be angry forever? I will read Psalm 85:1-5 shortly to show that this is a believer that is asking God these questions. The Israelites had rebelled against God and He allowed them to go into captivity because of their rebellion. So will God be angry with true believers forever? [Read more…]

Christ is a great Savior and He is my Lord and Savior.  [Read more…]

Why Do I Talk About Death And Hell So Much?

Last week a student came up to me while I was open-air preaching and he self-identified as a gay atheist and told me that there is nothing that I can say to change his mind. But he still asked the question: Why do you talk about death and Hell so much? This is actually a very good question. Why do I talk about death and Hell so much when I’m street witnessing?  [Read more…]

Pride and Selfishness

Seek and Save the Lost Pride and Selfishness

Most of us have heard of the book Pride and Prejudice. The name of the parade may have been changed this year to Equality Parade, but we all know that it was formerly called Gay Pride Parade and this whole week is still called Pridefest. Many people out here today are prideful and you are really celebrating because you know the Supreme Court is going to rule any day in favor of same sex marriage. So it appears that you have the pride part and many of you accuse my friends and I of being prejudiced. You call us homophobes. Nothing could be farther from the truth. It’s out of our love for God and love for our neighbors that we come out here witnessing today. The social clubs that join hand in hand with you don’t love you – at least not with godly love. Jesus is the Truth and godly love always, always speaks truth.  [Read more…]
