Jesus. The Way, the Truth, and the Life.
When I make a change to truthsaves.org, I’ll categorize it here.
Read this Christian testimony of being arrested for preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ.
This testimony tells the story of an arrest . . . typically the testimonies posted on this site tell of a conversion experience. Webster defines the word “testimony” as:
1. an open acknowledgment or
2. a public profession of religious experience.
I think that leaves it pretty wide open.
So, take some time to read Henry’s story of being arrested for preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ. It’s a good reminder that no matter what the cost, we need to be confidently and openly sharing our faith.
It comes somewhat as a shock to me that anyone would think that children can thrive without love being expressed to them.
Interestingly enough, a reader wrote us and asked us if children should be loved, and if so, how they should be loved. Well, none of us here at truthsaves.org has children (not quite), but we think Scripture gives clear direction on loving them.
Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool.
Isaiah 1:18 (ESV)
Here’s a new Christian poem from mamarocks.com. It’s called Lord, Forgive Me. When we plead with God for forgiveness, He listens and forgives.
Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool.
Isaiah 1:18 (ESV)
An outline and overview of the Old Testament book of Ezekiel.
We’ve finally posted another outline. We’re sorry that things have been moving slowly. I hope to accomplish a lot with the site in the next few days. I have a number of outlines and testimonies I’d like to post. We still want more testimonies and articles and we’d love to hear from you.
Besides the image of God’s glory, there are images of sieges, of an outcast vine, of divine love, of sexual promiscuity, of a cooking pot, of shepherds, of dry bones that gain flesh and live, of a new temple, and of future blessings. Jesus undoubtedly has in mind Ezekiel 34 when He spoke of being the Good Shepherd in John 10. Ezekiel gives us visions of God and visions of Satan, visions of destruction and visions of hope, extended imagery of patience and stupidity, and promises of a new covenant and a new time of peace.
An outline and overview of Lamentations on truthsaves.org. Lamentations is a series of five theological laments centered on the fall of Jerusalem.
Lamentations is a series of five theological laments centered on the fall of Jerusalem. The book presents the justice and holiness of God in dealing with sin, the compassion of God in dealing with us (3:22, 32), the faithfulness of God (3:23); and the goodness of God to those who wait on Him (3:25).
Mark 13 speaks of a great horror. What is it? It may be a reference to the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet.
A reader recently sent us a quick question about the “horror on the hill” spoken of in Mark 13. We believe this may be a reference to the “abomination of desolation” spoken of by Daniel.
Check out the article and feel free to tell us what you think.

Christians should be set apart. Does this mean we shouldn’t wear jewelry?
A reader mentioned that she didn’t think Christians should wear jewelry because we should be set apart – not of this world. We agree that Christians should be set apart. But do we agree that Christians should avoid jewelry altogether?
Those who pursue pornography are like oxen that go willingly to the slaughter. Its house is the way to hell, descending to the chambers of death.
Sorry I haven’t posted for a while. I really don’t have an excuse. We’ve posted a new article on truthsaves. It discusses pornography. Some people dismiss the subject as unimportant or “no big deal.” We feel differently. Those who pursue pornography are like oxen that go willingly to the slaughter. Its house is the way to hell, descending to the chambers of death.
Here is an overview and outline of the Old Testament book of Jeremiah on truthsaves.org.
Tim recently sent me the outline of Jeremiah (if you call a month ago recently). I’ve been a bit slow getting these outlines up and viewable. But this one’s here, and it’s a good one. I think the blue double edged table is kind of pretty myself. However, the meat of the page is not in the design (cool as it may be) but in the words themselves.
So, when you’re ready to learn a bit about the book of Jeremiah, check out this outline.
Here’s an overview and outline of Isaiah on truthsaves.org.
I thought, “I’m feeling motivated. Why not post another outline?” So, I got out my trusty text editor (PSPad, for those of you not in the know), and coded this baby up. This is an outline of Isaiah. I’ve had it sitting in a folder called “truthsaves” in Thunderbird for at least three weeks, so it should have been done by now. But hey, guess what? It is done now so I’ll quit blabbering so you can read it.
