Grant that I would confess unguardedly to You since You know my sin more fully than it shall ever be known by me (1 John 1:9). Grant that I shall confess unhesitatingly and not suffer the loss of one moment of fellowship with You (1 Cor 1:9).

By Ronnie W. Rogers / December 17, 2023 / Comments Off on The Paradox of Christmas

On Christmas, we give thanks and celebrate Christ humbling himself and being born a baby boy in order to die for the sins of the world (John 1:29). That is the greatest gift and message of Christmas; may Christ’s humility, which made the Christmas message possible, be seen in us. “Have this attitude in yourselves…

In death, we know that our loved one is more than the body, for the body is still there, but our friend is gone.This we cannot prove in a laboratory, but neither can we deny it in our hearts; our friend is gone and gone indeed.Some say we are just material beings; the body is…

Let Not Your Prayers Be Hindered by Poor Relationships

By Ronnie W. Rogers / October 16, 2023 / Comments Off on Let Not Your Prayers Be Hindered by Poor Relationships

Prayer is fellow shipping with God and a means by which God changes us. It also is a means by which God has chosen to work in changing things when we ask (Jas 1:5-6; 4:2). We can miss God’s best through not praying, praying with wrong motives, or ignoring the vital part relationships play in…

How Marxism and Critical Race Theory Plan to Topple Christianity and America

By Ronnie W. Rogers / October 2, 2023 / Comments Off on How Marxism and Critical Race Theory Plan to Topple Christianity and America
