Matthew 7.15-16: Beware of false prophets, who come to you dressed as sheep, but inside they are devouring wolves. You will fully recognize them by their fruits. We can’t forget that the devil comes as an angel of light to deceive (2 Cor 11.14), and can perform miracles (Rev 16.14). How do we prevent religious deception? LINE ALL TEACHINGS UP WITH THE WORD OF GOD (1 John 4.1; 1 Th 5.21), and get your theology from the Word of God…
The “Eve” syndrome. How often I see this destroyer of gratefulness manifesting itself in my life. What IS the “Eve” syndrome in my marriage and how do I get rid of it?

They will never [on any account] follow a stranger, but will run away from him because they…
Worship is the result of a transparency and intimacy with God that comes as a result of knowing who you are to Him and who He is to you. Just like any relationship, the quality of intimacy will depend on how much you are known and really know that person. The most significant scripture on worship is when Jesus told the Samaritan woman at the well in John 4:23-24: But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers…
Friendships There are different levels of friendships. Define: acquaintance, casual friendship, close friendship (mutuality), and intimate friendship. 2. There are different seasons of friendships. Your life is like a skyscraper, with each floor representing a different part of your life. Realize that some friends are there for a season: you may be sharing the experience of a hobby your child likes together, or have children in the same activities or sports, but afterwards it is difficult to keep connections with…
Offenses are heading your way! They will come… as they often do when we get together with large groups of people over the holidays! Remember, James 3.2 tells us we all stumble in many ways, and if any one does NOT offend in word they are perfect!
