I believe the churches were birthed in the ages. As I believe all these churches are Christian churches I do not mind to visit or read into them. I also believe that as these churches are birthed in ages, that changes could occur within a movement. A Baptist church can be Sardisean...

I am a supporter of the bbnradio.org, who will sometimes have a speaker speaking Calvin things. Which, I feel any of the TULIP can be presented truthfully. But… 13 Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom...

I heard someone say… My mom was always on me when I went to church wearing baggy clothes, she always would tell me you need to like nice when you go to church, I believe she gets it from being raised up in a Catholic school. She told me those nuns could be mean and strict. My granny, though not...

I don't think any two can read Revelation and see the book the same. And i am no fan of other teachings. I do believe, though, this the Laodicean age and the prophecy relevant for our time.

I just came from fireworks at Liberty University. Jonathan Falwell, who I understand is also pastor of Liberty University as well as the Thomas Road Baptist Church did a wonderful job narrating the event. I would have no problem considering Jonathan Falwell of Philadelphian variety. I am...

I have used the material from this devotional to put together a video entitled, "Saved, sanctified, and filled the Holy Ghost." I have not mentioned tongues, but have likened it to the experiences in the old camp meeting time.

So what am I talking about here? Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners. - 1 Corinthians 15:32 The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat: All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not. For...

Camp Meeting in Virginia! I passed my examinations and that year I was sent to the Wytheville Station and Circuit. That was adjoining my former charge. We reached the old parsonage on the pike just out of Wytheville as Rev. B. W. S. Bishop moved out. Charley Bishop was then a little tow-headed...
