King Saul committed numerous errors, particularly the error of prioritizing his own methods over divine guidance. This transgression ultimately resulted in the loss of his kingship over Israel (1 Samuel 10-15). What can we learn from his example? That's what today's podcast episode is about today.
"Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! [5] Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. [6] Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:4-7
Think postive thoughts about yourself! God loves you, and He thinks the world of you. The way you think will impact the quality of your life. See what God through His Word has to say to you about your thoughts! Psalm 139:17-18 - "God, how precious your thoughts are to me; how vast their sum is! [18] If I counted them, they would outnumber the grains of sand; when I wake up, I am still with you."
We all sin. We all fall short. We all need grace. Every day. However... when this occurs, how are we to view ourselves? Where do we go next? What must we remember? That's what we'll be addressing today from the Bible.
You are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. Period. You have nothing to offer God that will get you saved or even keep you saved. You and I both need a Savior from start to finish. Many people have a hard time believing that Christians can know with 100% certainty that they're 100% secure in Christ. But at the end of the day, what does Jesus say about this matter? That's what we'll look at today.
Why does God allow corruption, wickedness, and evil to happen in this world if He is in control? The prophet Habakkuk wondered the same thing. Today we'll address those questions in light of what God had to say to Habakkuk.
Allowing ourselves to be dictated by the emotions we experience can be tempting, but we must now allow that to happen. Our emotions must never dictate our decisions. Proverbs 4:23 - Above all else, guard your heart, for it affects everything you do.
The choices we make as parents matter grately because our children are paying attention. The choices we make will affect our children. Lead your kids in the way that is right for them - to follow Jesus. This podcast episode is for parents, grandparents, and future parents. Scripture - Ezekiel 18:1-2

Do you understand salvation? Do you understand the condition of people without Jesus? Do you have a correct understanding of the Mosaic Law? If not, check this podcast episode out.
God equips the called. Today, many people rely on human wisdom for everything. This was no different in the days of the Corinthian Church. Paul wanted the Corinthian church (and us) to understand that God uses the Gospel to shame those who think they're wise. God's ways are not our ways and through Jesus Christ, He crushes the pride of man.
Indiana just passed a "Near-Total abortion ban." This is a wonderful day for LIFE, but yet some people are saying that it's one of "Indiana's most darkest days in its history"... How are we, as Christians, supposed to address this issue? What do we need to know, and how are we to act? That's what you'll find out in "ABORTION is a MORAL issue" today!
We all have stuff to do. The question is, where is our focus? Who is our mind set on? Jesus? Or ourselves? Biblical text discussed today: Colossians 3:1-3 & Ephesians 5:13
Romans 3-5 teaches that no flesh will be justified before God by keeping His commandments. Rather, justification comes to a person the moment they place their faith in God. This is the righteousness of God. For it is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone.
Philippians 4:6-8; Romans 12:1-2; Colossians 3:1-2
What if Jesus is still dead, what would that mean for Christians? What would that mean for the world? That's the question I'm tackling today.
1 Peter 5:8: "Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour." There are those who seek to indoctrinate your children with THEIR own agendas which are not in line with God's agenda. Satan is out to get your children. He wants your children to question whether or not they're a male or a female and much more. What will YOU do to protect the future of your children? What will I do? How does God direct us in living during ...
We live in uncertain times and the future of the world seems uncertain, but God is in control. When it comes to our salvation in Christ we can rest assured that we're forever secure in Christ and that nothing (not even us) can separate us from the love of God. Jesus is crystal clear - "All that the Father gives Me shall come to Me, and the one who comes to Me, I will certainly not cast out. For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. And this is the ...
The year 2020 has been full of fake news. It's hard to know what to believe anymore. Sadly, this is the case with some Gospel preachers. Some people teach that faith in Jesus Christ is not enough to save a person. These people teach that a person must do some in addition to having faith in Christ to be saved or to remain saved. This right here is FAKE NEWS and it completely robs the Gospel of its liberty. During this discussion you will hear what Jesus and the apostle Paul have to say about how ...
Have you ever thought you had to do something for God to love you? In other words, have you ever thought that you needed to make a bargain with God? Many people believe that in order to receive eternal life, God's love, etc.. that you have to hold up your end of the stick. Is this the case with Christianity? Let's find out here on the 100% Forgiven Ministries Podcast: with Gary Johnson
2020 has been a year full of chaos and anxiety for the entire world. Many Christian's are worried about the current events, wondering what this means for the future. Where is God? Has He left us? The Bible gives a clear answer to this which I discuss here today.
