Coming out of Exile (The Church in Exile because of the Coronavirus)
My name is Troy ( FireSpeaks) Pearsall. For many years I have studied, taught, and preached God's Word, but more importantly, I have walked through seasons of loss, disappointment, doubt, and restoration just like many of the people who visit this site. Here you will find biblical teaching, sermons, articles, and reflections designed to help you wrestle honestly with life's deepest questions and discover the hope that Jesus Christ offers. Whether you are a lifelong believer, struggling in your faith, or simply curious about spiritual matters, my prayer is that these resources will encourage you, challenge you, and draw you closer to the God who has not stopped pursuing you.

Should a Christian Eat Meat?

By "FireSpeaks" -

And there came a voice to him, “Rise, Peter; Kill, and Eat”.   But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean.    And the voice spake unto him again the second time, “What God Hath Cleansed that Call Not Thou Common. ” Acts 10:13-15(KJV) The question should a Christian eat meat or vegetable comes up often, there are some Christians that say we should not  eat pork, or shell fish, and some say Christians should only eat vegetables and it makes no different  what the argument everyone claim to have biblical proof.   Which is correct for the Christian?

Being a bodybuilder I naturally was dr...

Ephesians 6:18 (TNIV) Often times when we are on our knees Satan seek to take control of our very thoughts. A mind that was perfectly clear of outside thoughts is now while we are in prayer being interrupted with thoughts of Monday's meeting at work, or the phone bill, or even weather we've forgotten to turn off the lights in the basement before you came up to pray.

You see a prayer heard by God is a victory for you and a testimony of God faithfulness, so when your drop down on you knees to pray you become enemy an of the devi...

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service . Romans 12:1 In just about every Pentecostal or Charismatic church I’ve ever been to, there is an evil  Monster of Praise    that alienates the church members even before the pastor of the church ever brings in the word. While in the mist of Praise and worship he snatches the praise of those that need it and perverts his own praise in the wrath of his holy indignation. Like a praise police he thinks he is tasked with the godly responsibility of determining the fervency of the churches praise. Sometimes the  Monster of Praise    is seen as a member of the Praise and Worship Group or as a leader within your local congregation, someone of authority. But when that person becomes so moved by the worship or praise and presence of Holy Spirit, then looks around the church and sees som...
