What is holiness? A Sukkot story I remember when I visited the Western Wall in Jerusalem. It was in 2014 around Sukkot— The Feast of Tabernacles. That specific day I went into the hall that is alongside the Wall, where people usually go to pray protected from the heat outside. And walking inside I saw a […]
A definition for sin
What is a sin? I am sure you know that believers all over the world today are having extended debates if one can be a Christian and LGBT, at the same time. However, I was surprised to recently meet someone defending the LGBT people’s view. The Bible says one cannot be a born-again Christian and […]
Faith and patience- the missing keys
Faith and patience make a powerful team, someone said. Have you ever wondered how can a believer inherit God’s promises? Is there a secret? Abraham was 75 years old when God told him to get out of his country and go to a land that He will show him (Gen. 12:1-5). So Abraham (who back […]

Remember the wife of Lot, Part I
There is a short verse in the New Testament that is telling all of us to remember the wife of Lot. This verse is found in Luke 17:32 (ESV) Remember Lot’s wife. Why should we do that? I believe there are few warnings in the Bible more solemn than this one— to remember the wife […]
When do you know God is not leading you?
When can a believer understand that God is not leading him? How can one discern God’s guidance? Quite a few months ago, my wife and I had to drive to a different city in the center of the country to visit my in-laws. Everything looked good with the car when I checked it. However, after […]

Led by the Spirit of God I
How do you know you are led by the Spirit of God? Led by the Spirit in a personal matter At the very beginning of 2014, one morning I was praying alone in my room. And out of the blue, I heard a voice in my heart, and I knew it was the Lord speaking […]
A good book to read
What would be a good book to read in the next season of your life? I do not believe one can reach his full potential in life alone. Indeed, we all need each other, and we all need to learn from each other. And a great way to learn in life is through reading good […]
The right word at the right time
How important is it to say the right word at the right time? The right word at the right time can make a huge difference I remember when quite a few years ago I attended a Christian meeting somewhere in the UK. However, that day was special because I was part of the ministry team. […]
