CRUMB 022 – GUARDING THE ASSURANCE OF OUR HOPE
The Bible clearly states, that it was God, “Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness”. The Gospel, Paul says, is the “power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth” [Romans 1:16]. It is only through ‘this message alone’ that God delivers us from the power of the devil’s dark domain. However, God does not deliver us and then…
CRUMB 0021 – TRACKING DOWN THE ADVERSARY
“The Bible calls Satan our adversary the devil, the accuser of the brethren, that old serpent, the enemy and various other names”. So let’s track down this adversary of ours.

Crumb 0008 – There Is No Comfort In Uncertainty
A great preacher once said, “I find no comfort in uncertainty. Facing the wild waters of the future, I cannot launch my eternal soul on a raft of guesswork and human opinion. Like Paul (the apostle in the Bible), however, I say, ‘I know Whom I have believed’ [2 Timothy 1:12], and ‘In Thee O Lord, do I put my trust’ [Psalm 71:1]. I’m speaking…
CRUMB 0006 – DEAD MEN DON’T TALK
Dead men don’t talk, because they can’t talk. The point is that if they are dead, they can’t do anything for us. My parents, for example, once they passed away, their role in my life, in whichever way, ceased. Sure, they no doubt leave behind a legacy, which we seek to take forward in our lives. But their active role…
