What does the Cross really mean to you? Pray and think about it…….write down its meaning to you……. The Christian PostBy Shane Idleman, CP Guest ContributorSadly, many today water down the gospel and avoid talking about the cross. They want the Bible to be more appealing and marketable. But truth is not marketable! We are to guard it, proclaim it, and defend it, but never compromise it. A.W. Tozer addressed this decades ago, “There has come in modern times a new cross into popular Evangelical circles.

By , CP Guest Contributor In Matthew 17:21, Jesus said that a certain evil spirit does not go out of a person except by prayer and fasting. Some manuscripts disagree on whether this verse should be included or not, but the principle is found throughout Scripture: Fasting applies pressure to the spiritual realm.

One thing is certain: Leaders need to be more forthright and admit their sin. People would respect them a lot more and it would set a good example. Leaders not only lead by example with integrity but also with repentance. We must provide a safe haven for those with issues, and instill an open-door policy where members can go to any of the elders if they have concerns with leadership. Over the years, we’ve seen many failures and fallings in the evangelical church.

By , CP Guest Contributor Over the years, we’ve seen many failures and fallings in the Evangelical church. And it begs the question: What is going on? In my article, Why Do Leaders Fall? I wrote: “They fall for the same reason that all Christians fall. Each of us is drawn away by our own evil desires and enticed. When these desires are acted upon, they lead to sin (cf. James 1:14-15). Sin has a life cycle — it either grows or withers depending on whether we feed or starve it.

By , CP Guest Contributor Congratulations on your incredible win. We knew that God was up to something. Pastoring a Bible-believing church in California is not easy but I’m surrounded by many good people. We all understand the enormous value of getting the nation back on track (spiritually speaking). Many are not called to flee, but to fight. California is still a great state and America a great nation.

Congratulations on your incredible win last night, sir. We knew that God was up to something. I have a few thoughts about the mandate on your next term in office. I can relate, to some extent; pastoring a Bible-believing church in California is not easy, but I’m surrounded by many good people. We all understand the enormous value of getting the nation back on track (spiritually speaking). Many are not called to flee, but to fight. California is still a great state and America a great nation.

This statement from the former Vatican ambassador to the U.S. was recently posted on his social media pages. It is particularly relevant to us today as the last wave of voters heads to the polls. I am addressing all of you a few days before the presidential election that will call millions of American citizens to the polls.

OPINION: “You can be certain that at the forefront of every significant recovery from backsliding…the doctrine of repentance has been among the precious truths that God has quickened and used.” – Richard Owen Roberts Believe it or not, many Christian leaders seek to remove the word “repent” from conversations about faith. Apparently, we need to rethink our narrow view of the gospel and our restricted view of Biblical hermeneutics, so they say.

Believe it or not, many Christian leaders are seeking to remove the word “repent” from the Church’s collective vocabulary. Apparently, we need to rethink our narrow view of the Gospel and our restricted view of biblical hermeneutics, or so they say. Their rescripting seems ridiculous, but this is actually happening. They argue that “repentance” may not actually mean what we think it means.
