In His Freedom We Are Free

“ *Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold all things are become new”*  (2 Corinthians 5:17)       It’s unfortunate that many Christians today are being taken by the devil’s deception in the so-called “ *deliverance ministry*” and much of what is happening today under the guise of “ *deliverance*” is excess and error. Actually, the enemy is working through some in the so-called “ *deliverance ministry*” in the body of CHRIST to get many believers off the track and diverted from what God desires to do in the world through His Church.       If you are born again, you are where CHRIST is, Satan does not have the wherewithal to keep you under him.

When you hear or see Christians through ignorance still maintain a deliverance mentality; the mentality of always suggesting there’s something to be free from. Th

Study the bible

 I just heard a story. One day a philosophy professor said to his class, “Everyone knows the Bible is full of contradictions.” One senior student calmly raised her hand. She was a believer. She respectfully said, “I just finished reading the whole Bible and I didn’t see any contradictions. Sure, there were things I didn’t fully understand. But, I will keep reading.  I pray that God will help me understand those points in time.” The professor made no comment.  You know why?  He had never read the entire Bible himself.   When people ask you about Bible contradictions, ask for specific examples.

If your friend does think of one, sit down with him and study the passage. When you look at the passage as a whole, instead of a single verse or two, context usually clarifies confusion.   Understanding the literary style of the passage may also help. Some p

When God puts a promise

 When God puts a promise in your heart, no matter who tries to stop you, no matter how big the giants are, no matter how unfair it is or how long it’s been, if you’ll just keep traveling steadily, passing the test, not getting bitter because people did you wrong, not giving up because it’s taking a long time, then like David, God is going to give you the land. He’s going to move the wrong people out of the way; He’ll give you favor to defeat giants; He’ll make ways where you don’t see a way
