Always Reforming
by Joseph Pittano on December 1st, 2012
     There’s a lesson that’s been of real comfort to me during this past year that I hope will be of comfort to you as well. It was first brought to my attention as I studied Corinthians some time ago and then applied it to my life. The lesson is that the church is to be always reforming. Semper Reformanda! As you look around the visible church today there is much to grieve over. It was never any ...  Read More

God Will Finish What He Starts
by Joseph Pittano on November 25th, 2012
     To the saints in Philippi Paul wrote of his, “Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ,” Philippians 1:6. Many people have asked, even recently, about what a Christian does with his or her sin after they’re born again. They have somehow come to see the gospel of the Lord as a mere fresh start that they can mess...  Read More

Our Eternal God And Savior
by Joseph Pittano on November 18th, 2012
 There is no such thing as a Christian who doesn’t believe that Jesus is God. Trinity is essential. Last weekend was a weekend of cults or, at the very least, semi-cults for me. I was ordained the privilege to speak of Christ with a Seventh Day Adventist on Thursday, a Mormon on Friday and some Jehovah’s Witnesses on Saturday. Both Mormons and Jehovah’s Witnesses (JW) have nothing to do with God a...  Read More

The Progress of Faith
by Joseph Pittano on November 9th, 2012
     God wants contrite people. Scripture says, “…On this one will I look: On him who is poor and of a contrite spirit, and who trembles at My word,” Isaiah 66:2. Contrition is a healthy, reverential fear bred by wisdom in those who know and love God. The Hebrew word nakeh that’s translated as “Contrite” here in the NKJV is not a very common OT word. Depending on which Bible version you use it onl...  Read More

Our Strength For the Fight
by Joseph Pittano on November 4th, 2012
 Christianity and Satanism are the only valid religions on earth. All others are false in the most fundamental way. Please understand that by calling Satanism valid I’m not saying that it’s ok, approved by God or good. All I mean is that when an informed Satanist “prays” they really do know the one they’re praying to. If they know him then it is no false non-existent being they seek. Every other w...  Read More

All of the Attributes of God Are Perfect, Even His Hate
by Joseph Pittano on October 28th, 2012
 God is perfect in every way. God is perfect in His hatred for the wicked. God hates sin. The perfection of God was once defined by Ravi Zacharias as follows: “God is the only being in existence whose reason for existence is within Himself.” God never changes. Things only change because they’re not perfect. They change to move closer to perfection. If something or someone is perfect it doesn’t nee...  Read More
