Does God approve of everything He allows? If He is in control of ‘everyone’ and ‘everything,’ how can we justify so many ‘if’s’ in the Holy Bible? Surely this conditional connotation to God’s promises reveals a measure of personal accountability, which cannot be ignored. The Bible speaks of a ‘hedge of protection’ and ‘putting on […]

The post Authority of the Believer: Part 2 (LIVE) first appeared on Carl Joseph Ministries.

Knowing our authority in Christ is perhaps the most important aspect of Christendom, after salvation. In this live broadcast (the first of a three-part series), Carl questions the false ideology that, ‘God is in control’ of ‘everything’ and ‘everyone.’ He shares scriptures pointing to our responsibility as believers and how we have a part to […]

The post Authority of the Believer: Part 1 (LIVE) first appeared on Carl Joseph Ministries.

Is ‘Christian Science’ merely another Christian denomination or is there a sinister undertone to the ‘Reading Rooms,’ scattered throughout the nation? 1st Timothy 6:20, warns of ‘science falsely so called,’ which refutes saving grace through faith, offering salvation via the tree of knowledge instead (Gen 2:17). In this insightful broadcast, Carl explores the origins and […]

Christians are often accused of being bigoted or overtly judgmental. Some claim Christians should never judge anyone, because Jesus spoke against it.

Of the 217 Modern English Bible translations and counting, does once stand out as ‘the’ word of God? Most modern scholars do not believe we have God’s word in our possession today. They desperately seek original autographs in caves and caverns of the desert, much like Indiana Jones. Yet God promised to ‘show His word […]

The post Did God Preserve His Word? first appeared on Carl Joseph Ministries.

The age-old question of why God allows suffering in this world has baffled theologians for centuries. But could the cause of our woeful predicament be found by simply looking in a mirror? Suffering came into this world because of choice and choice always wins. Suffering is the byproduct of sin which gained entrance into this […]

The post Why does God allow Suffering? first appeared on Carl Joseph Ministries.

God made us righteous by Christ’s atoning blood sacrifice.  Many Christians still hold on to a stubborn ‘sin consciousness’ which identifies them with their past. Despite Christ’s once and for all sacrifice, they still feel guilty of past sins. This shameful demeanor can only overcome by embracing ‘righteousness consciousness.’ Carl shares the importance of past […]

The post Faith, Hope & Love: Part 4 (LIVE) first appeared on Carl Joseph Ministries.

Hope must come first. Without hope, we will never see the promises of God manifest in our lives. Many Christians are ‘hoping’ their prayers are answered but are not employing the principles of faith which are requisite for the manifestation of God’s promises. Hope is tied to our imagination and we must steward our imagination […]

The post Faith, Hope & Love: Part 3 (LIVE) first appeared on Carl Joseph Ministries.

Faith is a substance; therefore, it can be measured. Hope desires an outcome, but faith is how we attain the outcome. The Bible says, faith can waver, or even become shipwrecked, if we’re not careful. In this broadcast Carl shares the story of Charles Blondin, the famous French trapeze artist who, in the fall of […]

The post Faith, Hope & Love: Part 2 (LIVE) first appeared on Carl Joseph Ministries.

Faith, Hope and Love have been described as the great triumvirate of Christendom. 1st Corinthians chapter 13, outlines which of them is the greatest of all. These three pillars serve as the foundation of Christianity, because without them, we are dead in the water. As Carl begins this four-part series, he describes how each of […]
