PASTOR JOHN COLLINS, JOHN COLLINS MINISTRIES: REVIVAL BLOG

Pastor John Collins, Evangelist: Hang Tough! How can we be strong in a world of violence?   We have wars, threatened wars, suicides, hatred, aggression, and disasters of nature that take away everything we own.What do we do?  Pastor John Collins of Love that Cross and Pastor John Collins Ministries has the answer. Trust Jesus.   It’s a simple answer that has been available to us for over two thousand years.   Salvation is the free gift that God has given us, with forgiveness and a chance at eternal life once we are done with life here.   But living is tough, right?   There’s crime and drugs and death in the media.   Terrorists threaten.   Across the world, attempts on our faith and our stifling our hope push at us as believers.   Jesus and God are bigger.   Much bigger, and all it takes is to accept that They are real and make Them your own.   “Be cautious in this world, take nothing for granted and call on ...

PASTOR JOHN COLLINS, EVANGELIST: Modesty-A choice of wisdom. What kind of example are we showing our children in public through our actions and our clothing? What are we communicating to others with what we wear, what we say, what we do, how we act?   Pastor John Collins writes: “For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.” Romans 8:6 (NKJV). We all know about the birds and the bees, which is just a metaphor for how reproduction takes place and I am not even sure parents use that phrase any longer to describe the ‘talk’ that children receive about sex. Many children are knowledgeable long before the talk takes place anyhow and with our society being as forward and lewd as it is, it is hard to ignore what goes on between a man and a woman when it comes to intimacy. I am not sure that there are many virgins that make it to the altar. Hormones are part of our physical makeup for a reason. You cannot continue to reproduc...

PASTOR JOHN COLLINS, EVANGELIST: OPPRESSIVE AMBITION Ambition has smothered humanity by the desire of people to become powerful.   Pastor John Collins of Love That Cross Ministries and Pastor John Collins Ministries shows us that ambition has kept mankind from the relationship that God intended for us when He sent Jesus as our Savior.   Ambition controlled the Dark Ages-Medieval times-and kept humanity ignorant and in poverty, ambition drove men to enslave other men and women and keep them oppressed in the bonds of slavery for millennia, today’s slavery is human trafficking that is a criminal industry affecting 20.9 million people around the world…an industry   of oppressing humans, historically Hitler oppressed the Jews in the Holocaust , the list is long and unfortunately continues even though we consider ourselves “modern”.   There is nothing new under the sun. Equal opportunity isn’t equal, preaches Pastor John Collins .   Ambit...

PASTOR JOHN COLLINS: End Times and Rapture Are you a fence sitter when it comes to declaring your faith ?   Do you hedge your bets, believing in a part of this faith , a bit of that doctrine , a little of that religion ?   All in.   That is what God wants from us and Pastor John Collins of Love That Cross Ministries and Pastor John Collins Ministries tells us.   All in, all of us, not part of our faith , part of our heart, part of our souls.    All our heart, soul, mind and strength.   That is the first and greatest commandment , it’s part of the Hebrew Shema , and what Jesus Christ taught when He walked the earth as a person 2000 plus years ago.   Pastor John Collins is determined to bring as many who will come back to the Cross . End times prophecies have been talked about since they were first spoken millennia ago.   The first disciples expected them to happen any day, but they were wrong just as the “prophets” of today a...

PASTOR JOHN COLLINS, EVANGELIST: THE GIFT OF JESUS CHRIST "We are in need of our Savior. We have been given life everlasting by God in the form and sacrifice of His Son." Pastor John Collins, Evangelist, Love That Cross We are not alone, and we have never been alone, writes Pastor John Collins of Love That Cross Ministries and Pastor John Collins Ministries .   God is with us.   Jesus Christ is with us.   When you look at the birth of a child that wasn’t expected to survive, and that child not only survives, but survives healthily, that is a miracle, and that is the work of God .   Someone is inexplicably cured of a disease that would be a death sentence otherwise, that is a work of God.   When a person cries out in desperation, at the end of their proverbial rope, with nothing left inside them to give, yet instead of giving up, instead of becoming an addict or a victim, they stand strong and continue forward in faith which is strength in know...
