Open the Bible and meet Jesus Christ every day. If you donβt fill your mind with the Word of God, the enemy will fill it with fear, anxiety, stress, worry, and temptation.
Jesus is your victory.

As the worldβs highest IQ record holder, based on everything I have studied, I conclude that Noahβs Ark was real, the Flood was real, and the Bible is true.

Father Adrian Mantykiewicz, who was injured in a stabbing attack at a Polish monastery that killed another priest, celebrated Mass two days later with his head and hand bandaged. In his homily, he said he forgives the attacker and urged people to pray for him, especially for the grace of conversion.

Nobody talks about the fact that Jesus wept at Lazarus's tomb.
He knew He was about to raise him from the dead.
He knew the miracle was seconds away.
And He still stopped and cried with the people who were grieving.
John 11:35
God doesn't skip your pain to get to your miracle.
He sits in it with you first

βBefore the sin, Satan assures us it is of no consequence; after the sin, he persuades us that it is unforgivable.β

Adam and Eve had paradise, yet the enemy convinced them they were missing something. That same deception still exists today. Sometimes the enemy doesnβt have to take your blessing, he just has to convince you it isnβt one. Renew your mind and recognize when youβre already living in answered prayer.

If youβre obeying God and seeing little fruit, donβt give up.
You may not see the marriage changing yet.
You may not see your children responding yet.
You may not see the person youβre praying for coming to Christ yet.
You may not see the fruit of your faithfulness at all.
But your responsibility is obedience β¦ The results belong to God.
Keep praying.
Keep preaching.
Keep serving.
Keep forgiving.
Keep fighting sin.
Keep doing what God has commanded.
Faithfulness is never wasted when youβre faithful to a sovereign God.

I hate sin.
Iβm watching the destructive power of sin unfold in a family in my congregation right now.
Sin never keeps the promises it makes.
It promises pleasure and brings pain.
It promises freedom and brings bondage.
It promises that no one will get hurt.
Then it tears through marriages, destroys trust, wounds children, and fractures families.
Sin isnβt harmless.
It isnβt cute.
It isnβt something to manage.
Kill sin before sin kills what you love.
βPut to death therefore what is earthly in you.β
-Colossians 3:5

Isnβt it comforting to know that nothing in your life is random?
Every event β¦ Every misstep β¦ Every unforeseen circumstance β¦ Every trial and every blessing.
Nothing in your life is random. Nothing has escaped His knowledge. Nothing is outside His sovereign decree.
The same God who ordained your salvation has ordained every step between now and glory.
The big memorable events, and the small moments that fall in betweenβnothing falls outside the hands of a sovereign God.
You may not understand what He is doing.
But you can rest knowing that He does.

The Holy Spirit will never inspire you to do evil against another person. Not even your worst enemy. βοΈποΈ

Iβm beginning to realize that Christianity isnβt just about trying harder not to sin, itβs about growing so close to God that the desire for sin starts to fade.ποΈ

99% of Christians wonβt care to learn this, but the most effective way to reach Muslims isn't by starting with politics or morality.
Saying βMuhammad was a p3dophileβ over and over again wonβt persuade anyone.
The best way is by using the Old Testament.
The Qur'an repeatedly claims to confirm βthe previous Scriptures.β (The Torah)
But when you compare its stories with the Torah, serious differences emerge.
For example:
The Qur'an says if Muhammad is in doubt, he should ask those who read the earlier Scriptures (Surah 10:94).
The Qur'an's account of Saul, David, and Goliath differs significantly from the biblical account.
Islamic tradition places Abraham and Ishmael in Mecca building the Kaaba, yet Genesis 21 places Ishmael in Beersheba and records him marrying an Egyptian woman.
The Qur'an says Moses received nine signs, while the Bible records ten, including the Passover, one of the most historically and theologically significant events in Israel's history.
These claims weren't made in a vacuum. By the 7th century, copies of the Old Testament had already existed for centuries, including the Dead Sea Scrolls and numerous other Jewish manuscripts.
Let me say this though:
My goal isn't simply to pull people out of Islam. My life mission is to lead them to Christ.
If the foundation of Islam can be examined honestly, then conversations about theology, morality, and truth become much easier.
There are nearly 2 billion Muslims in the world. They aren't our enemies. They're people made in the image of God who need the hope of the Gospel.
Let's love them enough to know what they believe, ask good questions, and point them to Jesus.
