CROSSOVER NIGHT AND THE SILENCE OF SCRIPTURE

“CROSSOVER NIGHT” AND THE SILENCE OF SCRIPTURE Joshua Ojo. A Biblical Examination of New Year’s Eve Vigils “What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it.” — Deuteronomy 12:32 INTRODUCTION:  A PRACTICE ALMOST EVERYONE ACCEPTS As December 31st approaches each year, religious centers across the world prepare for what is popularly called “Crossover Night,”  “Watch Night,” or “New Year’s Eve Vigil.” Church halls are decorated. Special services are announced. Prophecies are pronounced. “Declarations” are made over the coming year. People are told that how you cross over determines how your year will go. For many, this practice feels spiritual, emotional, and meaningful. But the most important question is not: Is it popular? Is it emotional? Is it traditional? Does it feel good? The only question that matters is: “Is it authorized by Scripture?” The Bible warns us: “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.” — 1...

THE BIBLE SPEAKS DAILY (DECEMBER 26th, 2024)

Are You Among False Brethren?

Are You Among False Brethren? Jesus warned us that “false Christs and false prophets” will come and will attempt to deceive even God’s elect (Matthew 24:23–27; 2 Peter 3:3; Jude 1:17–18). To guard against falsehood, false teachers, and Brethren, it’s important to know the truth and know the characteristics of the counterfeit.  Any believer who “correctly handles the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15) and who makes a careful study of the Bible must be able to identify both false Brethren and their doctrines. Jesus said, “A tree is recognized by its fruit” (Matthew 12:33). So, believers are to be fruit inspectors. Knowing the look, texture, and taste of a healthy apple is important. So is knowing the look, texture, and taste—and smell—of a rotten one. Here are three specific tests to apply to any  Christian to determine the accuracy of his or her teaching: 1) What does the Christian say about Jesus?  In Matthew 16:15-16, Jesus asks, “Who do you say I am?” Peter ans...
