The Revelation: Praying for Judgment to Fall on America
Sunday, March 29, 2009, posted by Steve McCranie - (43.31)

  Did it ever dawn on you that, like Elijah of old, God may have some of His holy ones praying for judgment to fall on America in order to bring her back to repentance?  That maybe, after a three year drought, we as a nation may experience our own Mount Carmel encounter with God?

Remember the words of Elijah to the nation of Israel, "How long will you hesitate between two opinions?  If the Lord is God, follow Him; but if Baal, follow him."  In other words, now is the time to choose... for them and for us.

Note:  This is a study of Revelation 14:8-11

Preparing for the End: Your Kids are Not Your Kids
Friday, March 27, 2009, posted by Steve McCranie - (38.43)

  Parenting and, better yet, grandparenting is an incredibly wonderful thing. 

But what happens when you love your kids more than you love the Lord?  Are you doing them a favor?  Are you being unloving to your children and family when you place your affections towards them before your devotion to the Lord?  I mean, is that a good thing to do?

Have you ever thought about the dire consequences of that kind of misplaced love?  Scripture has some frightful examples of just this kind of misplaced love. Want to learn more?

Note:  This is a study of Aaron's sons

The Revelation:  The Long Slide from Ephesus to Laodicea
Wednesday, March 25, 2009, posted by Steve McCranie - (53.03)

  You do know, don't you, that the seven letters to the seven churches in Revelation 2 and 3 accurately picture all of church history in startling detail?  Well, if not... you should!  After all, we spent tons of time and type on it. 

But did you also know that the same seven letters also paint a sad, harrowing portrait of a church's, or an individual Christian's, slide from spiritual fervency to... well, lukewarmness.  From being the beloved to being what the Lord vomits out of His mouth.  Ouch.

Want to learn more?  Just listen...

Note:  This is a study of Revelation 14:6-7

The Revelation:  The 144,000 Revisited
Thursday, March 19, 2009, posted by Steve McCranie - (44.26)

  How do you describe these 144,000 unbelievable overcomers?  Do you call them dynamic?  No, they are much more than that.  How about kinetic?  Or, charismatic?  Maybe they are just natural born leaders, you know, those destined for success and victory?

I don't know.  All these terms reek of worldly praise and not heavenly praise.  Seems somewhat shallow.

Scripture calls them, among other things, blameless.  Blameless!  Did you ever wonder what that means?  Stay tuned and find out.

Note:  This is a study of Revelation 14:1-5

The Revelation:  What Can You Control?
Monday, March 2, 2009, posted by Steve McCranie - (44.03)

  In these times of economic upheaval, do you find yourself anxious about what tomorrow will bring?  Do you wonder if you'll have a job this time next month?  Do you lose sleep at night worrying about the sub-prime mortgage collapse, the ill-advised bank bailouts, or the simple fact that the Social Security Trust Fund is as empty as a poor widow's pantry?

You do know that you can't control any of those events, don't you?  Not one.

Want to know what you can control?
Good.  Stay tuned and find out...

Note:  This is a study of Revelation 14:1

The Joy of Believing the Lie

“I’m completely in favor of the separation of Church and State.
My idea is that these two institutions screw us up enough on their own,
so that both of them together is certain death.”
George Carlin (1937-2008)

     I am keenly aware of the fact that you may be wondering about a guy who would write a book entitled, Love Jesus, Hate Church. You probably have some questions, maybe many questions, about the origins of a book that makes people as uncomfortable as Love Jesus, Hate Church has proven to do.
     You may be asking yourself, "How can you be a Christian and use the words Love and Hate and Jesus and Church all in the same sentence?  It just seems so wrong."
     And, you're right. It does seem wrong.
     True.  But wrong.

     Yep, I would probably be wondering the same thing if the tables were turned and I found myself in your shoes.

     So, let me see if I can shed some light on who I am and why I do what I do by telling you a bit about myself and how I came to write Love Jesus, Hate Church.  Let me share with you, oh, how shall I put it— the joy of believing the lie. I believe this will give you a better grasp of who I am and why I wrote Love Jesus, Hate Church.
