False Teachers

March 17, 2025 by Tim Sherfy

Each of us bears the responsibility of sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ with everyone we meet (Matthew 28:19-20; Romans 10:14). Today, there is no shortage of voices claiming to speak the truth of God’s Word. On the surface, that is wonderful news. The more voices, the more the message spreads. The frightening truth is many of those voices are not teaching the gospel we find in scripture.

For every faithful adherent to God’s Word, it seems there are ten who are twisting, distorting, and abusing the simple truth of the Bible. Given the warnings in scripture against such things (2 Peter 2:1-3; Galatians 1:8-9), it amazes me how many will eschew the commands of God and dare to live in the path of His holy and consuming wrath (Hebrews 10:26-27; Romans 1:18-19). False teachers flaunt their arrogance and will reap their just reward (Jude 12-13; Matthew 7:21-23).

The Gospel of Jesus Christ

May 9, 2024 by Tim Sherfy

We live in a world of death. Wars, tornadoes, tsunamis, disease, crime–every day we read about another life taken from this world. It’s tragic. But what is even more tragic is the realization that the vast majority of those lives have not only lost their physical bodies but have died a second death as well. If they didn’t know Christ, and statistics say they didn’t, then they are now banished from His presence forever.

There’s no second chance. There’s no tomorrow. All there is now is an eternity without God spent in the nonstop torment of Hell (Revelation 20:14-15). Every death should devastate the hearts of we who know Christ. We know the better way. Yet we let almost every day go by without telling someone the wonderful truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

The Gospel

January 26, 2023 by Tim Sherfy

There is a plethora of bad teaching out there today. So many voices saying so many things about Jesus and the Bible. How do you know who to listen to and who to ignore? Trusted voices I’ve been quick to recommend in the past have proven to be unfaithful in recent years and are no longer proclaiming the simple truth of the Bible. The so-called “Prosperity Gospel” is spreading like wildfire with its focus on health, wealth, and success.

Test

Progressive ideology is misleading people by the tens of thousands. The most popular churches and most popular preachers are teaching a gospel that is no gospel at all. With all this in mind, I think it’s important to restate what the gospel, the true gospel of Jesus Christ, really is.

Different Perspectives

July 21, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

How do you feel about those who don’t share your faith or even your outlook? It can be a struggle to relate to those who don’t serve God and indeed chase after false gods and idols. Jesus didn’t look at those who did not believe in Him with anything but love. He wept over the lost souls in Jerusalem (Luke 19:41-42). Every soul mattered to Jesus, whether they were Jew, Gentile, or Samaritan.

In the same way, every soul must matter to us regardless of their ethnicity or religious belief system. Everyone is our neighbor and we should love them as we love ourselves (Matthew 22:36-40). Different perspectives do not call for different reactions. Our disposition should always be love, and our motivation to save them from an eternity in Hell, forever separated from their beautiful Creator.

Complete Joy

June 9, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

When we come to Christ, a joy we have never known fills us. We want nothing but more of Him. Over time, that joy may wane. Following Jesus is not an emotional journey, it is a journey of truth. The emotions we experience from knowing Christ are exhilarating, but in the end, it is not the emotion we seek. We seek only Jesus. Still, the emotional highs propel us in His Name to do work for His Kingdom.

So, how do we continue to find joy when the struggles and trials of day-to-day living weigh us down? How do we find complete joy in a world intent on crushing us? The Bible shows us the way, and it is not about manufacturing emotion or attending events designed to elicit an emotional response from us. No, the way to reignite our joy is by sharing it with someone else (1 John 1:4).
