Even If i Walk Alone

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

II Corinthians

Every Moment Holy

December 15, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

Someone recently gave me a book titled, “Every Moment Holy”. I haven’t had the chance to read it, but the title struck me. To see every moment as holy is our responsibility as worshippers of the One true God. To live every moment holy is the calling on every life that proclaims Jesus Christ as Lord. Our attitude each day should be to see God’s holiness in every moment of the day and to observe how He constantly reveals His glory in the world around us.

There is so much sin and darkness, but God’s holiness can still be found by those who seek Him. As we seek His glory, we bring Him glory by ordering our steps so that everything we think, say, and do is holy and pleasing to our King.

Be Faithful

December 5, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

In a world where moral decline is progressively moving the ruling parties toward open hostility against Christians, it can cause a lot of anxiety concerning the future. That persecution is coming is no longer a question, but only a matter of timing now. How should we, as followers of the Lord Jesus Christ, respond in times like these? The only thing we know for certain is things will get worse before they get better with the second coming of our King.

Until that day, I think the best thing we can do is to be faithful. One day we may be called upon to make the gut-wrenching decisions between freedom on earth or remaining loyal to Christ, between providing for our families or denying Jesus. Our steadfastness then will depend on how well-equipped we are to face those moments.

Run From the Darkness

August 22, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

The Bible commands us to run from the darkness (1 Timothy 6:11), not to see how much of it we can let into our life before it becomes a problem. In our churches and our lives, we see the results of compromise compounded over years. We now see it on vulgar display in our country every day. I remember embracing a more progressive form of Christianity for many years. A more socially hip church and theology seemed like a welcome relief from what I perceived to be the tired and stagnating Christianity of my youth.

Satan is a clever and effective liar. You have to give him that. It’s one thing to be deceived, another to admit it, but something even more to turn from it. This is where we find ourselves today. After decades of compromising with the culture, we now find the faith of our fathers in somewhat of a death spiral.

The Triune God

August 18, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

One of the great mysteries of our God is that He is a triune God. We serve one God, but He exists in three persons. He is not three different gods, but the one true God, existing in three persons who are all equal. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are of the same essence. There is not space enough here to do an in-depth explanation of the Trinity. My purpose here is to warn against a wrong understanding of the Trinity because it is of vital importance to understanding the gospel.

If you believe the Bible to be the inerrant, infallible Word of God as I do, then we must recognize there are mysteries in it we cannot understand in our humanness. Some day God will make it clear. For now, the Trinity must be something we accept by faith, even though we do not comprehend its possibility.

No Neutral Position

July 18, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

In a world of compromise and so-called “tolerance”, we must remember there is no neutral position in Christ. We are for Him or against Him (Mark 9:40; John 3:36), and we can never stand in a middle that does not exist. Today’s culture regards those who accept whatever is popular as the favored class. Those of us who push back against the tide of perversion, selfishness, and immorality are branded as outcasts and even criminals.

Light has no fellowship with darkness (II Corinthians 6: 14; Ephesians 5:11), so we must abstain from drinking from the fountain of popular thought. The temptation to go with the flow is great, but if you are truly for Christ, you must stand firm on His Word and obey His commands.
