salv58 Are there few who are saved? is a tract that questions that many people will be saved. Wide is the road to destruction and narrow is the road to heaven. "Narrow" has the idea that with difficulty and much energy, one will find that road. Those who are saved, have faith, not works as the basis for that salvation.

Why Homosexuals are Aggressive? Why is an opinion piece examining homosexuality and their sexual aggressiveness in the light of Scripture. The answer is in Genesis 13 with the Angels from God being spotted by the sodomites in Sodom. Interesting reading! Also, "Does God hate homosexuals?" is examined. Moreover, I look at, "To be saved, will I have to give up my homosexual lifestyle?" Read Why.
Getting People to faithfully integrate in the Church is an article on how to get people to participate in your church. This article links to more articles dealing with these issues.

An article helps pastors and Christian workers in building a Christian Reference Library to use in producing sermons and classes. I introduce the new Bible student to three free Bible programs, and offer some considerations:
(1) When you have no books on a subject.
(2) When you cannot find information of a Bible subject.
(3) When you cannot discern how much the author discusses the subject.
(4) You are searching for the wrong key word.
Note: on my site, twmodules.com, I offer 2500+ free books for Bible study, and another 500+ books on thewordmodules.com. Also, I offer on https://theword-modules.com/ Bibles for theWord, theword-dictionary-modules.com 140+ dictionaries, concordances, lexicons, etc. for theWord, and on https://www.theword-commentary-modules.com/ I offer some 500+ Bible commentaries for theWord. All of these are free for the downloading, so if you have an Internet connection and some time and space on your hard drive, you can assemble a Christian library of around 3800 works. All free.
See this page for more articles on improving your preaching.
Buy me a Cup of Coffee! To make an old Christian work into a PDF, a module for theWord, MySword, or eSword takes time. These works are scans from old books, and as such, I have to go through the text some dozen times looking for places where the OCR is incorrect, blurred, or just skipped something.
Text Editing.Then there are the old Bible references like John iii. 16. Many young Christians and even preachers do not know the Latin system for books of the Bible. I convert Roman numerals in these books to Arabic (iii. to 3).
I have had to invest days and days in writing macros to read a long text, and make substitutions (for the above, search for "iii" and replace with "3:"). Unfortunately, with Psalms you have to start with 150 in Roman numerals (CL) and work your way backwards. But using macros, it is almost instantaneous the next time I need this. Work smarter, not harder. All this takes time and patience, (and being smart enough to do it in a macro language) (as well as a lot of coffee) and then making the text into theWord or eSword, mySword or a PDF.
Please donate something to me once every 6 months or even once a year, even if it is only $5, so that I can pay my bills for hosting, and also keep things moving along. It costs me about $10 per month to keep a website on the Internet. My websites also contains ads which have links to my sermons, tracts, books, that I have written. These keep my works before visitors, even if they are not visiting the specific website where I have them stored. It is my own "web" internally of my own sites with links to good Christian literature. May God bless for your prayers and donations.
Take a look at a few of our tracts:
salv76 suffering should seek his Savior - explains how we should react to problems and sufferings, we should seek the Savior.
pc15 How to fight against depression - we treat the problem of depression. Depression is not a physical disease, it is an emotional and spiritual disease that "bleeds over" and causes aggravation and physical consequences if not attended to at the spiritual-social-emotional level.
ch15 Congregating because we Love - a tract about why we attend church. Our relationship with our brethren in Christ is highly integrated with our salvation and our sanctification.
SSTeen1-01 Existence of God - Does God really exist? This is not a tract but a teen Sunday School Class that I wrote answering this important question.
fam48 Men are God's Agents - Men are God’s Agents to accomplish His Will, looks at man as God wants him to be. Manhood and the husband-wife relationship.

pc45 Christian Facing Eternity is a presentation for those who are about to die, looking at what happens for a Christian, his hope. 2 Corinthians 5:1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. 2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven. Ezekiel 18:4 Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.
