Even If i Walk Alone

Instructing and encouraging you to live your life as a disciple of Jesus

Genesis

Sound Doctrine

April 7, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

Sound doctrine is hard to come by these days. The largest churches and loudest voices are espousing a different gospel than the only true gospel found in the scriptures. A “new revelation” is the frequent and heretical term often used to excuse false teaching or make God’s Word more palatable for the masses. Remember, the masses will never accept Jesus.

It was the masses who rejected Him in His time on earth, and they continue to reject Him today. Jesus said, “How narrow is the gate and difficult the road that leads to life, and few find it” (Matthew 7:13-14). While Christ wills for all to be saved (2 Peter 3:9), the reality is that relatively few will accept His offer of salvation.

Jesus Is Sufficient

February 7, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

Jesus is sufficient for all things. He is sufficient for your needs, and He is sufficient to take care of everything in the universe. His capabilities are measureless and unfathomable. Yet this same God desires to know us intimately. If this doesn’t overwhelm you, nothing ever will. Jesus is our Creator and our biggest cheerleader. He’s our staunchest defender against the enemy.

He also is holy and demands we be holy as well. The Lord is slow to anger, but when His righteous anger is aroused, we must tremble in His presence. He loves us as much as He hates sin. The blood and mercy of Jesus are sufficient to cover our sins, while the ferocity of His judgment can destroy all who would dare rebel against Him.

Only One God

February 3, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

A Biblical worldview demands we understand and believe there is only one God. Most Christians would agree with that statement, yet the way we live and the things we say often stand in contrast to this belief. We don’t correct friends and family members when they make inaccurate statements about God’s truth.

When culture rebels against the commands of our holy God, we sit idly by, convincing ourselves it is better to go along to get along. Why is it the world has no trouble proclaiming lies boldly, but Christians are so timid when it comes to speaking the truth? Why are we so afraid to declare there is only one God?

Orienting Our Lives Around Jesus

August 16, 2021 by Tim Sherfy

Not long ago, I wrote an article on orienting your entire life around Christ. I want to develop that idea further because I’m not there yet and feel Jesus isn’t through working on me in this area. There was a time when people would spend their entire days working their farms, fields, and flocks. Survival was synonymous with life. Leisure time was a luxury rarely found. And yet, when Sunday came around, almost everyone was in church.

Prayers were said around the table and before bed at night. Scripture was read by the fire before turning in. The whole of life was oriented around work and God. It harkens back to the first week of creation, when God worked six days and rested on the seventh to enjoy the work of His hands (Genesis 2:1-3). It’s almost like He knew what He was doing and defining a pattern for the way His people should live. Imagine that.

Our Words Create Worlds

June 10, 2021 by Tim Sherfy

In the beginning, God spoke, and the world was created. His Word alone created the world we live in to this day. After creating the world, God created man and woman in His image (Genesis 1:27). He created us to resemble Him, to do the things He does. As His image-bearers, we have the power of God in our lives to do the things that He does.

We are creative because God first created. We exist because God exists. If God would somehow cease to exist, all of His creation would disappear as well. In the same way that God spoke and created the world, our words create worlds as well. The words we speak define the world around us.
