"In the same region there weresomeshepherds staying out in the fields and keeping watch over their flock by night.9Andan angel of the Lord suddenlystood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were terribly frightened.10But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people;1...

A few things caught my attention when I first visited the Reformed Evangelical Church in Auzonville Road, Tunapuna, almost ten years ago. One of them was the use of the "Amen" at the end of the hymns that were sung in the worship service. I had not seen this practiced in any of the churches I had visited before. It seemed to me that the congregation was adding a solemn agr...

"Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. 22 Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?' 23 And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from me, y...

On the pages of Holy scripture, we have been given the truth. Through the scriptures God has chosen to reveal His glorious person to us. This is ultimately and intimately seen in His Son, Jesus Christ. While we may hold such a statement to be true, its meaning is often lost in our daily lives. We often pass too quickly over the great truths of who Jesus is and what He did....

Heb.11:6 says, "And without faith it is impossible to pleaseHim, for he whocomes to God must believe that He is andthatHe is a rewarder of those who seek Him." God is. God exists. The writer to the Hebrews is not speaking about just any god. He is speaking about the God who revealed Himself to the fathers (Israel's ancestors) through the prophets. He is speaking about the ...

It is almost three weeks since the USA presidential elections as I write this post. In the run up to the elections, Christians in and out of America were far from unanimous in their choice of candidate for President. Now that the results appear to be more or less settled, Evangelical Christians are trying to make Biblical sense of the outcome. What are the implications for...

From time to time, when talking with people about the claims of the gospel, they would reject the gospel and say, "When I stand in the final judgment, all I want, from whatever God there is, is justice." The basis of this statement is generally based on the following : (1) all men are basically good and capable of good works; (2) the final judgment, if there is one, will b...

There is the thought today that truth is a power play constructed by the cultural and financial elites to control the masses. Truth is also thought to be subjective in nature consisting of an individual's preference, opinion and experience. Others say that truth is a collective judgement and is therefore the consequence of consensus. Then there are those who blatantly deny...

Before we get into the meat of the matter, I must make a few things clear. The term "rights" is used in the title to refer to the concept of human rights. Human rights refer to the consensus of arbitrarily derived morals and standards of human behaviour that are protected by law. What is wrong with these rights is that men have created them. Men are reaching for privileges...
