Article: Feigned Miracles and Gullible People

By Wayne Jackson | Christian Courier

The article discusses false miracle claims—like a girl “raised from the dead” in India or people receiving “gold teeth” in Pentecostal services—and exposes them as unverified hoaxes used to raise money or gain attention.
Jackson emphasizes the biblical teaching of Luke 16 that even someone returning from the dead would not convince unbelievers, and he calls Christians to “test the spirits” (1 John 4:1) rather than accept every miraculous claim.

Article: Do Angels Minister to Christians Today?

By Wayne Jackson | Christian Courier

“Are they not ministering spirits, sent forth to do service for the sake of them that shall inherit salvation?” — Hebrews 1:14

The passage affirms that angels are ministering spirits sent by God to serve believers. The Greek form implies an affirmative answer—yes, angels minister to God’s people.

They are continually sent forth by God to act according to His divine will, serving those who will inherit salvation. Though the age of miracles has ceased, God may still use angels through providential means to accomplish His purposes.

There’s no evidence that angels appear visibly today as they did in ancient times (e.g., Acts 10). Their work now seems to function invisibly within God’s providence.

Sermon – August 24, 2025 – Sam Eugenio

Critical Choices: Living by Decisions, Not Conditions
(Deuteronomy 30:19–20)

  • Key Truth: Our destiny is shaped by the choices we make, not the circumstances we face.

  • Examples: Joseph – integrity; Esther – courage; Daniel – holiness; Jesus – the cross.

  • Applications: Integrity in private, courage in obedience, faithfulness in habits, choosing life daily.

Takeaway: Your future is determined not by fate or conditions, but by the choices you make in response to God’s call.
