The Church Is Not Israel (Luke 9:1-6) (Mega)
There are fewer dispensationalists today than in years past. Among other things, dispensationalists believe that there is a difference between Israel and the church. However, most Bible teachers say that the church is the new Israel or that the church has replaced Israel. Those who say that the church is not Israel are often held […]

What Is a Sanctified Walk?
I like walking. In 1998 I gave up running and switched to racewalking. Since then, I have completed a dozen marathons (26.2 miles). This past weekend, I completed a virtual half marathon. That is, I walked 13.1 miles, but by myself in my own neighborhood. I like to walk with people. That is why I […]
Our Upside-Down World
Occasionally, I hear people speak of the German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, who lived in the late 1800s. He was famous for the “God is dead” movement. At first, I thought Nietzsche was teaching that God had literally died, which is a strange concept. I later learned he actually meant that any morality associated with the […]
Many Evangelicals Need Everlasting Life
I remember a call I got about ten or fifteen years ago from my late friend Bob Swift. I had said in a magazine article that ninety to ninety-five percent of all professing Christians are not born again. I based that on the fact that well fewer than one in ten church people indicate that […]
What Is a Spiritual Believer?
But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. For “who has known the mind of the LORD […]
At the Feet of Jesus
In Luke 7–8, the Lord has encounters with various people. I noticed that many of these encounters share a recurring theme: The people find themselves at the feet of Christ. In Luke 7:38, a “sinful” woman interrupts a dinner to wash the Lord’s feet with her tears and dry them with her hair. She anoints […]
What Is a Carnal Believer?
And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ. I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able; for you are still carnal. For […]
