The Scariest Verse ...

Since Halloween is said to be the scariest day of the year, I was asked to create an image of what many believe to be the scariest verse in the Bible.  Here it is:

Matthew 7:21-23 ...  Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

"A Christian Pumpkin"

 I am a Jack O' Lantern, My light will shine so bright.

For I am a Christian pumpkin, my symbols tell what's right.

My nose is like the cross, on which our Savior died.

To set us free from sin, sin, we need no longer hide.

My mouth is like a fish, the whole wide world to show. 

That Christians live in this house, and love their Savior so! 

The story starts at Christmas, my eyes are like the star. 

That shone on Baby Jesus, and wise men saw from far. 

My color it is orange, just like the big bright sun. 

That rose on Easter Day, along with Gods' own Son.

And so on Halloween, let's set our pumpkins out. 

And tell the trick or treaters, what Gods' love is all about!

Matthew 5:16 ... Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Light In The World

 In a dark world be different. Be Light.




Philippians 2:15 ... That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;


Colossians 1:12 ... Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light


John 12:46 ...  I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.

On Holidays...

On the matter of Christians celebrating Halloween: 

At the end of it all, we will not be held accountable to men for what we did in this life, we will be held accountable unto God. Good or bad, we will all stand before Christ to be judged for what we did here on earth. (Romans 14:10)

What another Christian decides when it comes to Halloween, Christmas, Easter and whether they partake of it or not is not for me to judge, let every man decide for themselves how they should live. (Colossians 2:16)

All we are asked to do is to preach the gospel, edify the saints and guide men into perfect truth, give them the information they need to make WISE decisions. The fact is, if a believer partakes of Halloween, or any other holiday, that does NOT negate their salvation, for we are saved by faith, not by works lest any man should boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9)

People need to work out their own salvation and allow the Lord to guide them in their proper walk. Yes, we give people guidance with the word, but at the end of the day, let every man work out their own salvation - with fear and trembling. (Philippians 2:12)

This is the aspect of LIBERTY which is found in Christ, not a liberty to do whatever one wills, but understanding that some matters of personal behavior needs to be left to God and the individual believer.  This is my position.

[Christopher Gregory]


Galatians 5:1 ... Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

Being a Christian ...

Being a Christian is like being a pumpkin.
God lifts you up, takes you in, and washes all the dirt off of you.
He opens you up, touches you deep inside and scoops out all the yucky stuff ---
including the seeds of doubt, hate, greed, etc.
Then He carves you a new smiling face
and puts His light inside you to shine for all the world to see.

1 Corinthians 6:11 ... But ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.



2 Corinthians 5:17 ... Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.



Hebrews 10:11 ... Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.

2 Corinthians 4:6 ... For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. ❤

This Little Light of Mine

Being a Christian is like being a pumpkin. God picks you from the patch, brings you in, and washes all the dirt off of you.

Then he cuts off the top and scoops out all the yucky stuff.

He removes the seeds of doubt, hate, greed, etc., and then He carves you a new smiling face and puts His light inside of you to shine for all the world to see.

John 8:12 … Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

2 Corinthians 4:6 … For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

Matthew 5:14-16 … Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. ♥
