I'm going to try to write this as gently as I can. I want to write this bearing myself in mind, and being open to falling short. Another clarification is that godly living is a fruit that comes from salvation, godly living does not give us salvation. Godly living is a process as we grow… Continue reading What Is True Christian Living (What Does NOT Make One A Christian?)

A Lot of Us Do Not Really Know Why We Believe
Growing up as a Christian teen, many people around me couldn't talk to me about the topics I wanted to discuss. Instead of in-depth answers, I received maybe one to two sentences. Due to the short answers and sometimes blank stares, I became puffed up thinking I "knew so much." Regardless of what I knew… Continue reading A Lot of Us Do Not Really Know Why We Believe
Faith | Spiritual Gifts & Debunking Word Of Faith Theology
Word of Faith Theology is deceptive, manipulative, and damaging. There was no possible way I would avoid talking about this because I do not want you to be misled. I can't cover everything today, but just know this post is NOT the last on this deception. If you would like to learn about the beliefs… Continue reading Faith | Spiritual Gifts & Debunking Word Of Faith Theology
Little Update On Spiritual Gifts Series (My Views Have Since Changed)
I have taken quite the break from the Spiritual Gifts series. I'm really glad I did. Some of my views have changed within the past few months, and I've made just a few edits to my Tongues/Interpretation of Tongues post. I'm mostly a Cessationlist now (I think spiritual gifts of the apostles have ceased), however,… Continue reading Little Update On Spiritual Gifts Series (My Views Have Since Changed)
Why Do Christian Artists Fall Away? (Do You Know Your Lyrics?)
Music can be a net that pulls people into theology... I once had someone ask me if I could do a post series on various artists and whether or not their beliefs line up with truth. I denied the idea because it's too vast to study. However, it is important to know where the people… Continue reading Why Do Christian Artists Fall Away? (Do You Know Your Lyrics?)
Misconceptions Of Judging Righteously| “Don’t Judge” Unintentional Hypocrisy
New Edits Added: 08/04/2020- after reviewing the post there were a few changes I've made. Many of the "you" statements I've edited to "we" as we all can be guilty of this misconception. Ever heard someone say, "Don't judge me," or, "You will be judged as you judge," as reason to basically not say anything… Continue reading Misconceptions Of Judging Righteously| “Don’t Judge” Unintentional Hypocrisy
Difference Between Legalism & Godly Living (Condensed)
Arguments and varying opinions about legalism and godliness is not something uncommon on my blog. A huge misunderstanding I think just comes by people's assumptions by what I mean, and that's my fault for not clarifying better. My last post covering this What Is Godly/Holy Living | Am I Living A Defiled Life? taught me that I… Continue reading Difference Between Legalism & Godly Living (Condensed)

An Old Foe Appears (Christian Poem)
Shame, shame. Wrapped around and calling my name. Echoes whispering Accusing saying I'm undeserving. And old foe appears. One I haven't seen in many years. He grins, while a sword glints in his hands. I was growing, sowing. Now, the accuser destroying. Ripping apart, what was my heart. Roots broken and seeds marked.… Continue reading An Old Foe Appears (Christian Poem)
