I Will Go, Ps 71:15-18
In Psalm 71:15-18 we read, “I will go in the strength of the Lord God.” Years ago, I had that verse hanging above my office door. It was a reminder to me to go out in the strength of the Lord. But notice, the Psalmist said, “I will go.” We have heard much about “going” […]
Bear With Me, 2 Cor 11:1-33
Paul wanted the Corinthians to bear with him through some boasting.

From the moment we get saved, we are in a war. We have the Spirit of God in us, but we are still in this earthly body. And it’s wicked. It’s our warfare and we must fight it. Like men are trained to know their enemy, to use their weapons and to meet certain objectives […]
Paul Was Against Some, 2 Cor 10:1-18
Paul was for the Corinthians but he was “against some,” [2 Cor 10:2]. He was against the preachers who had come behind him as false apostles [2 Cor 11:13-15] to deceive the Corinthians and mess them up. Paul was against some: Who bad-mouthed him for being two-faced – 2 Cor 10:1-2 – they said he […]
