What are we seeking?

We live in a selfish, materialistic world where people are seeking after worldly goods to please themselves.

Sadly, this is even in our churches. We all need to take inventory of our heart and attitudes concerning this world. What are we seeking after and whom do we seek? Seek means to look for and go after. Our first and main focus is to be the Lord Jesus Christ and His righteousness. Then whatever we have need of, He shall supply! Let’s not allow the devil to deceive us and lure us with the world’s bidding. It holds nothing in comparison to what God has for us in this life and in the life to come.


But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Matthew 6:33



The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. John 10:10

I think I'm saved...

Well, let me start with the most important thing you bring up. I noticed the word I THINK in your question. Just because you go to church does not mean you are a born-again believer.

Wilderness

By Dr. Judy Baus • March 10, 2025
Have you ever thought about the word “wilderness” and what that means for the Christian and the non-Christian? To be a Christian we must believe—which is to trust and have confidence that Jesus Christ died on the cross for the sins of the world and rose again! Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

Stay Watchful

By Dr. Judy Baus • February 2, 2025
STAY WATCHFUL! I am sure we can all agree, 2025 started off with much tragedy and woe! Terrorist attacks killing many, devastating fires in the LA area, a horrible plane and helicopter collision, and another plane crash two days later! Many families in mourning. Truly, the devil is out to steal, kill, and destroy, and sadly, he’s doing a good job at it. But remember, our Lord is far greater than the devil, and He is ultimately in control.

Life with God after salvation!

By Dr. Judy Baus • January 8, 2025
Christianity 101—Life with God after Salvation We are living in very tough times that are only getting harder. As followers of Jesus, we should be strong in the Lord and full of faith, experiencing the God of the impossible. But are we? Jesus said in Matthew 19:26, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” I believe Jesus is looking at us and our fellowships and asking if we truly believe this. Are we living this Scripture out to a watching world?

We are living in some very dark, wild times. Our manual for success (the Bible) tells us to know the seasons in which we live. We must be alert and watchful and know and understand how our success manual tells us to have success.
