Usually when we talk about judgement, we discuss a criminal getting what's coming to them, Judgement Day, the end of the world, God on His our worst day. But judgement takes many forms. It goes back to the beginning of the Bible. Before Noah's Ark. Before Adam and Eve being cast out of the garden. … Continue reading A Place of Judgement
Christianity: Reduced to Platitudes
Christianity has devolved into quips, meaningless sayings, verses taken out of context, and a thin veil of protection made purely out of phrases that are typically held in higher regard than the bible itself. Many of these platitudes are not only extra-biblical, but anti-biblical.
The Kingdom of God is Like…
Often, when Jesus spoke of the Kingdom, He spoke of exponential (almost explosive) growth! That's how the smallest seed grew into a great tree.

The Law vs Christianity
In my quest to understand the division of the Old Covenant Law and the New Covenant, I have ran into opposition along the way. I have people accusing me of preaching “greasy” grace (or some other silly way of making grace seem like a negative). But the thing is, that once you start to learn … Continue reading The Law vs Christianity
