Pastor John Collins, Evangelist, Thought of the Day

  From Pastor John Collins: Content from radio broadcast May 24, 2020, posted with permission: Pastor John Collins ~ “I think we’ve been saying over the past eight years that one day, God is going to get tired of getting slapped across the face by people.  We are going to have a wake-up call for something to happen, because He wants us to turn back to God.  We need to get rid of politics and get back to the Cross, first and foremost, but that is the problem. “God didn’t do this.  People going out into the public when they weren’t supposed to, not wearing masks when they were supposed to, not social distancing when they were supposed to, that was the problem.  This could have been not as deadly as it was, in my opinion, if we would have done these things.”  “You shall not tempt the LORD your God as you tempted Him in Massah” (Deuteronomy 6:16, NKJV). “Jesus said to him, “ it is written again, ‘You shall not tempt the LORD your God ’” (Matthew 4:7, NKJV). “An...

 From John Collins Ministries: "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7 (NKJV). Have you ever been co-dependent? Have you ever been depressed, miserable and feeling so lonely that you allow negative relationships to build with negative people in your life?  Have you ever been afraid to be alone?  Are you keeping unhealthy relationships alive in order to avoid emptiness? In order to be healthy in our live in our souls and not only our bodies, we must be honest with ourselves. If you truly want spiritual health, heart health and mental health then get to know Jesus Christ.  When you give your all to coming to the Cross and submitting to God's will for your life, you will find yourself supported, whole, happy and fulfilled.  There is functio...

From John Collins Ministries: “Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord: looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled.” Hebrews 12:14-15 (NKJV). Bitterness  is something that we must be on guard against and we must have complete honesty with ourselves if we are to monitor our hearts so that we can repent if we find ourselves gone astray.  Bitterness  will creep up on you and it is easy to allow to happen. We like to think of ourselves as deserving the best and we become very offended when others hurt us, reject us and when we perceive that we have not received our ‘due’. We must be careful to find the  balance  of self-worth and humility. Sometimes people just don’t think things through with  faith . Do you deserve health, happiness, wealth, love, respect, honor, recognition or to walk thr...

Evangelist John Collins:  Don't lose your salvation. Jesus answered them and said, ‘My doctrine is not Mine, but His who sent Me. If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God or whether I speak on My own authority.” John 7:16-17 (NKJV). Christianity is going through a crisis of immense proportions. People have been waking up to the truth of the history of the church, to the paganism within the church and to the abuse of grace that has produced so much disobedience to God. Jesus was very clear in stating that you must obey the Father and not just believe, for it is those who love Him that are obedient. That being said, there are Christians everywhere who are taking their wake up call that was from God and jumping ship all together. There are Christians who have desired to start at the beginning, get to know the Torah and study the word of God to know what sin is, what obedience consists of, and what is promised in the prophecies. ...

PASTOR JOHN COLLINS, EVANGELIST: BELIEVE IN ISN'T JUST BELIEVING BibleVerseImages.com There is a difference in believing and believing in.   Many people believe that God is there, is real, that Jesus is the Messiah, that He was crucified on a cross and died for our sins.   It is one thing to believe, it is another to believe in.   To believe in something is to give everything you have to that purpose, that idea, that concept, that cause. To believe in something is to pursue it with determination, tenacity, a single-mindedness that will not sway you no matter what.   Paul the apostle says it is running a race, and Pastor John Collins , evangelist and head pastor of Love That Cross Ministries and Pastor John Collins Ministries, Inc. , preaches it means to run the race of a lifetime, full out, all in.   There are a lot of people who say that they are Christians and give only lip service to belief.   They go into a church on Sunday ...
