Pastor's Blog

In a recent conversation I had with a Mormon, he called himself a Christian, but his belief of salvation is different than mine. When I told him that have accepted Christ as my Lord, he said, "well, you need to join the Mormon church." We live in a world that is subtley influenced by cults. Yoga is based on Hindu worship. Tattoos and body piercings are based on paganism. Easter is the worship of a pagan goddess Ishtar. Halloween is a Satanic celebration of death. Do we realize all the negative influence cults have on our society today? How do you converse with a Mormon, a Jehovah's Witness or a Muslim? What is your response or question to cults and false religions?

Here is my personal Purpose Statement for 2012: "By the grace of God, in 2012, I purpose to spend quality time in the presence of the Lord, give the Lord the best of my time, talents and treasures, pursue higher levels of spiritual growth and lead by example." (I'd love to hear your purpose statement for 2012 as well.)
