Truly, increasing the Bride or saving America matters

Skilled Workman Posted on by

Truly, increasing the Bride or saving America is our question. But America, as we know it, is not going to survive. The end of the age is here. We are in prophetic times — Bible times, again. Just recently, there was a major tent revival halfway between where I live in Rochester, New York and Buffalo. The response was phenomenal. A thousand pastors got involved. Many hundreds of volunteers showed up. Opening night happened in pouring rain, … Continue reading →

Bride exclusivity is reality

Skilled Workman Posted on by

Bride exclusivity is reality and you need to decide soon. This post will be a little complex. I’m trusting the Lord to show me how to put it together. But it’s something I’ve rarely heard in sermons, teachings, or discussions. I believe that part of the effort against the Rapture concerns a simple fact. The fact that Bride exclusivity is fought so hard might be partially the result of the enemy wanting to hurt believers any way … Continue reading →

Compare the big ten with American life and weep

Skilled Workman Posted on by

Compare the big ten with American life and weep —now you understand why we’re in so much trouble. It’s not that we’re a little naughty. We’re completely rebellious. We are to be holy. The Ten Commandments have become such a normal part of my life, I no longer think about them. I found I couldn’t even remember some of them. So, I went to refresh myself. Oh my Lord! Our national policy directly opposes most, if not … Continue reading →

Is child-like faith conversion required to be mature

Skilled Workman Posted on by

Is child-like faith conversion required to be mature? Here we see an underlying reason why Satan has worked so hard to destroy the family. Beginning in the fifties, the world has relentlessly ridiculed fathers, expected women to take control, empowered children, sexualized society, driven material prosperity, and all the rest. One of the results of this happens to many. My child-like trust of my father in the flesh was basically destroyed when I was six and seven … Continue reading →

Empower Bible reading by asking the author for help

Skilled Workman Posted on by

Empower Bible reading with the help of the author. There is a major difference between reading the Bible and asking the Lord to show you what He wants you to learn today. The Bible amazes me. But, an author guided read transforms my life—every day. The author of the book matters much more than the book itself Fortunately, the Bible’s author lives within you. If you haven’t tried it yet, ask the Holy Spirit [or Jesus] to … Continue reading →

Personal intimacy with Yeshua changes everything

Skilled Workman Posted on by

For me, the most important thing I’ve ever learned is that personal intimacy with Yeshua changes everything. Currently, most of the church ignores this simple fact. To my horror, even churches preaching the gospel about the blood and the cross, focusing on new converts and leading them to the Lord, often don’t mention this from the pulpit. All of their services are evangelistic. As far as I can tell, the pastors and teachers who know this don’t … Continue reading →

Be careful whom you listen to! Galatians 5:7-9

Skilled Workman Posted on by

Galatians 5:7–8 You were doing so well until someone talked you out of obeying the truth. This persuasion did not come from Him who calls you. We must always be careful who we listen to. Over the years my wife and I have spent countless hours correcting strange beliefs held by immature Christians. Note carefully, I do not see any hint here that Paul is calling these people heathens. What he is saying is that the result … Continue reading →

Legalism versus freedom: Ishmael or Isaac? Galatians 4:21-31

Skilled Workman Posted on by

Verse 4:21–31 Tell me now, you who have become so enamored with the law: Have you paid close attention to that law? Abraham, remember, had two sons: one by the slave woman and one by the free woman. The son of the slave woman was born by human scheming; the son of the free woman was born by God’s promise. This illustrates the very thing we are dealing with now. The two births represent two ways of … Continue reading →
