I was brought up in an Evangelical Congregational church in Massachusetts. Every week I remember going to Sunday school followed by, as I called it, ‘the adult service’. I liked going to church every Sunday morning. I always enjoyed the things that made me feel good, singing solos in the cherub choir, lighting the candles […]

On this week a woman was killed on Interstate 93 near Boston when a flying manhole cover randomly blew off of its place on the side of the highway. The cover flew across traffic to hit and enter a woman’s car on the driver’s side and she was killed at impact. She was doing something […]

      People say that an all loving God can never be reconciled with the notion of Hell. These self assured critics protest that no loving God could be so vindictive as to relegate some poor human being to a place of torment and eternal damnation. Some folk even go so far as to […]

The post There Still is a Hell appeared first on Elisha's Outcast Eagles.

While taking our son back to school for his senior year at George Washington University he asked my wife and me if he should continue going to Intervarsity Christian Fellowship meetings on campus if they were not preaching the whole truth. Without asking what the problem was I told him that it was a matter […]

The post How Can You Be a Christian If You Are Not Born Again? appeared first on Elisha's Outcast Eagles.

On four different occasions the Lord Jesus sharply rebukes His disciples for the poor quality of their faith. The Savior does not accuse them of having no faith at all, but He does chide them for the weak condition of their trust and belief in Him. In reprimanding His followers the Lord uses the expression, […]

The post O Ye Of Little Faith appeared first on Elisha's Outcast Eagles.

Some years ago I worked for a company that supplied substitute teachers. I tried to get work as near to home as possible, but one gloomy morning I got a call to teach at a distant technical school. Ordinarily, I would have turned down the job, but a boy from a local family attended that […]

The post The Spiritual Advantage of Praying in Tongues appeared first on Elisha's Outcast Eagles.

The nativity is about the historical birth of the central figure of all human history, the man Jesus Christ. For those who profess to be Christians, the Nativity is also about the religious reality of God condescending to become man; of the Father sending His Son into the world. For the born-again, Spirit-filled disciple of […]

The post The Nativity Meant There Could Be New Birth For Man appeared first on Elisha's Outcast Eagles.

In both Matthew 15:26 and in Mark 7:27, the Lord Jesus declares that deliverance from evil spirits is “the children’s’ bread”. One of the first recorded prayers of the early church is found in Acts 4:30 when the earliest company of believers lifted up their voice in one accord asking God to anoint them to speak […]

While listening to a music tape I heard the words; “Go, go, go, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, and Son and Holy Ghost”, Matt 28:19 I was reminded of a revelation the Lord gave me some years ago concerning the doctrine of baptisms referred to in Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. I have […]

The post The Three Baptisms appeared first on Elisha's Outcast Eagles.

This is the story of two fires. One burns dark in the world, the other illuminates it. With Christ it is never too late to say you are sorry. When we do say we are sorry, we can be born-again, get a fresh start, begin a totally new life; we can stand at a different […]

The post A Story of Two Fires appeared first on Elisha's Outcast Eagles.

It seemed at first like merely a fleeting glance; a brief but profound glimpse into the reality of the whole relationship. The vision so powerful in my heart went like this. Imagine a father who loved his only son in a way that he loved no other person. He and his son had been inseparable […]
