Even If i Walk Alone

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

Hebrews

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.

Few Are Going to Heaven

April 8, 2024 by Tim Sherfy

The greatest burden of my life is the conviction that so many, perhaps even most people who proclaim to be Christians are not. It’s not the first time I’ve written about this, and it won’t be the last. That’s what happens when a burden is constantly crushing down on you. When I look around at the modern church, and even more broadly at the industries that have sprung up around it, my soul aches for those who think they are on one path but in reality are on another.

To quote J. C. Ryle, “According to the men of the world, few are going to hell; According to the Bible, few are going to heaven.” The great tragedy of our day is not that we aren’t bringing more lost people into the body of Christ, but that so many lost people believe they are already in the body of Christ.

Death Is Not the End

March 28, 2024 by Tim Sherfy

Jesus lived a life so distinct from the culture that it got Him killed. By His life, we see we must cast aside the things of this world, no matter the cost. The world might imprison us. They might kill us. So what? They killed Jesus, but that wasn’t the end of the story. Jesus wasn’t just another man. He was and is the very Son of God (John 3:16).

For those who deny everything for the sake of Jesus, for those who eschew cultural demands and norms for the sake of Christ, death is not the end of us either. Jesus lived the sinless life we could never live, He was crucified to pay a debt we never could, and He rose from the grave to provide an eternal life we could never otherwise attain.

Where is Your Hope?

February 19, 2024 by Tim Sherfy

In a world of hopelessness, where is your hope? Since it’s an election year in America, many place their hope in a politician or political party. Some place their hope in the amount of money they stockpile or perhaps in a certain level of success. Getting through each day surrounded by so much hate, anger, and violence requires we hope in *something* or we will crumble under despair.

Putting our hope in anything in this world is putting hope in something that will not last. Perhaps it will last your lifetime, but recognize everything this world offers is temporary. Only Jesus is worthy of our hope, because only Jesus is eternal.

The Birth of Christ

December 25, 2023 by Tim Sherfy

In the history of man, through all the rush and bustle, there was one day when all of Heaven held their collective spiritual breath. That was the day Jesus came to dwell among His creation in human form. The birth of Jesus was not His first visit to the earth that He spoke into existence, but it was the first time He came as one of us.

While remaining fully God, He at the same time became fully man, so He could become the sacrifice we so desperately need. The birth of Christ was a brief respite from the normal goings-on of the world. From that moment, nothing would ever be the same again.
