One thing in life we can be sure of is we have no control over how long our life will last, of course, suicide is the exception to that established fact, we all die sooner or later. Scriptures say we are but a vapor. James 4:14 Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are “just” a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. In reality, it’s what we do with our time that counts.

Wow! what a can of worms that opens. Let’s start with one truth… we all lied somewhere along the way… Right? If you’re sitting there shaking your head saying you don’t lie, you just did!

Now that we understand none of us is any different than the other guy, what’s this about?

It’s about us… about you and me. We’re going to take a cold, hard look at our life and see how we’re doing and I don’t mean measure up, I mean are we really trying to follow God’s word or trying to fool others and ourselves?… I mean how we are REALLY doing!

If your feelings get hurt (by the truth) then you may want to leave this message, but then again, if you are a perfect Christian you don’t need this anyway. For the rest of us I hope this helps your walk on that narrow road, God bless you… Keep reading.

Since childhood, we are programmed to secede, and unfortunately, success in our country is measured by how much we can acquire… homes, cars, toys, and of course bank accounts. If we don’t acquire those things we’re considered in the lesser half of society.

Don’t get me wrong, God wants us to succeed… I didn’t say get rich, I said to succeed.  However, it’s not about whatever gifts you’re granted in life… it’s what you do with them that counts.

When was the last time you prayed for a stranger? Can’t remember? Hmmm… When was the last time you read your bible? Can’t remember? Hmmm… How about the last time you gave a love offering to a worthwhile ministry of your choice, I don’t mean a tithe to your church, this is above and beyond that.

Even though we are on the front lines, It’s very seldom we receive love offerings to help keep our ministry going, we never ask for or expect them. We have a donation spot to click on on this site to help, but it’s virtually ignored. We are very thankful for the dedicated Christians who do help, and I’m sure God smiles when you do…

The bibles,  CDs, and tracks that we are happy to give away cost money, not to mention fuel and expenses getting from place to place to do the ministry, believe me, every little bit helps.

When you say grace at mealtime, is it a ritual or is it from your heart, or do you even take the time to REALLY thank the Lord for His bounty? If you do say grace (and I hope you do) here’s a thought… Next time you’re out to dinner at your favorite restaurant tell your server you always pray over your meal and ask the person if there is anything they would like prayer for… O’ you say you’re too shy to do that… really… Matthew10:32-33 “Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father who is in heaven. ³³ But whoever denies Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father who is in heaven. You may want to overcome (as Christians we’re supposed to be overcomers) that self-indulging problem and step up! God doesn’t embarrass you, you do that on your own.

Are you a Christian on Sunday and a good ol’ boy on Monday? What I mean is; does your language get a little crass with off-color jokes and derogatory remarks? Are you afraid to say something about the bad language for fear you won’t fit in? Do you fear persecution for displaying your faith? If you answered yes to any of these questions you need to spend more time in the word seeking wisdom and courage.

I’ve been told by fellow pastors and Christians not to mix politics with Christianity… Really?

Usually when I am told that by a “Christian” my first question to him is; why? did you vote democrat, maybe it was because you didn’t like the personality of the opposing candidate? Here’s my thought. If you voted anything democrat, I don’t care where you say your Christian beliefs are, they should be called into question, because when you voted for the people who put into law same-sex marriage, transgender laws, abortion, and a myriad of other laws opposing God’s laws you gave satan victory after victory…

if you did that? Ask God’s forgiveness and then forgive yourself.

Most, not all, politicians are power-hungry and will do just about anything to obtain it, that’s on both sides. We just have to decern God’s will, and you and I both know it’s not killing babies or any of the other above-mentioned things the democratic party pushes to make them the laws of our land. If you truly believe in God… VOTE LIKE IT! Vote for the person who won’t vote against God… I don’t care about their personality!

Do you believe if you sin and refuse to accept God you’ll go to hell? Of course, you do… that is if you’re a born-again Christian. John 3 Now there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews; this man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, “Rabbi, we know that You have come from God as a teacher; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him.” Jesus answered and said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” …

If you follow any other belief other than pure Christianity, as a follower of Jesus Christ you headed to the lake of fire, that’s the word of God. Don’t blame me, I’m just the messenger.

The word tells us to spread the gospel. How do you handle that when speaking to a homosexual, transgender, or same-sex married couple? What if they might be a relative?

We’re cast as homophobes if we speak out, speaking out isn’t politically correct (politically correctness, Christianity… oil and water) and we don’t want to hurt feelings, so stay quiet, Right?… Really?

Do you or don’t you believe the scriptures?

Jesus is the way to heaven, the only  way; John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me 

If you don’t speak in Christian love to that person(s) they may be bound for hell. No matter how good a person you may think they are, goodness can’t save them, only Jesus…

We ALL make mistakes, every day, and our God said His grace is for all of us who believe and trust in Him, all we have to do is ask His forgiveness.

Accepting Jesus is the first step, none of us are perfect but the son of God paid the price for our sins. Through Him, we can ask forgiveness and start new each day with peace in our hearts knowing we are saved by Jesus’s sacrifice on the cross. Think of that… He died for you and me so we can spend eternity with Him.

We all fall short each day, praise God for His grace and mercy… If any of the things I’ve mentioned stirred your heart (it’s actually called conviction) don’t wait, do something about it!… One step Leeds to another, it just takes that first step. Do it in Christian love, the way Jesus wants us to do it.

We’re in this together and I’m praying for you, do the same for us here at “ON THE ROAD FOR CHRIST”. Until we get together again stay safe, be blessed, and keep looking up!

My prayer for you; 

Lord, again we come to you with praise for all you do for us and we ask forgiveness for our sins. Father, I ask that you put in each of our hearts the boldness to step up and profess our love for You to the world. 

I pray for our government and our leaders, I pray they turn their hearts to you Lord, and reverse this terrible path we’re on.

So much to pray for Wars to end, famine in the world, sickness, and disease, crime, and all the deception being forced on us.

We know you care and love us and we ask these things in the precious of Jesus!

AMEN
