Much of what you will read here came from the now-in-Heaven evangelist Tommy Tyson who I was privileged to hear at Oral Roberts University in the summer of 1978. Tommy Tyson went home to be with His Lord on December 5, 2002 after a remarkable worldwide ministry of as he put it, “Ministering Jesus To […]
What I (Bob) am about to say may seem to be saying too much. For some it seems really far out. But the fact is I wouldn’t know how to minister in any other way. Ministering from the heart and the eyes of Christ is by no means exceptional, it must be the rule. For […]
It is bad enough that the Holy Spirit in church history was characterized as a “Ghost” – as in the “Holy Ghost.” I remember hearing as a boy the preacher referring to Him as the “Holy Ghost,” and I came down with a terminal case of the “Unholy Spooks” about the third person of the […]
Father’s Press is proud to announce the release of Pastor-Evangelist Bob Klingenberg’s powerful and urgently needed new book is poignantly entitled Modern Christianity Corrupted. It is a Martin Luther call, clear, overdue and thoroughly Biblical, for a “New Reformation” in the 21st century.
I am reminded at the outset of the preacher who was warning his congregation about the evils of liquor, or at least he thought he was. At one point he bellowed, “Who has the money to spend?” Then he answered his own question and said, “Not the drinker, but the saloon keeper, he has all […]
God has His mighty warriors across the world in the global conflict against the anti-Christ and anti-Christian powers of darkness. The warfare is becoming ever fiercer, and as it does, I sense that the army of the Lord Jesus Christ is ever being heightened by the Holy Spirit in its bravery for and loyalty to […]
“Were they ashamed because of the abomination they have done? They were not ashamed at all; they did not even know how to blush. Therefore they shall fall among those who fall; at the time that I punish them, they shall be cast down,” says the Lord. Jeremiah 6:15
Remember the days when a “Party” was a very nice celebration that you went to, upon invitation of course? A very festive event! You know, like a “Birthday Party,” or a “Graduation Party,” or a “Coming Out Party” of some kind. While in the pastorate, the “Graduation Party Circuit” was the annual May-June ritual. A […]
Remember please this truth at the outset as it relates to Satan’s war against Christ and His church: “WHAT SATAN CANNOT PREVENT FROM WITHOUT, HE WILL PERVERT FROM WITHIN.” This quickly brings to my mind this profound and parallel insight from Martin Luther: “FOR WHERE GOD BUILT A CHURCH, THE DEVIL WOULD ALSO BUILD A […]
Ever heard of Chrislam? It is a term being used these days for the union of Christianity and Islam in a brotherhood of faith. In the largest Nigerian City of Lagos, worshippers are being invited to churches for Christians and Moslems in which the lectern holds both the Bible and the Koran, and readings and […]
Bar none, the bigger-than-life character in the Bible that I relate to the most is the man that we all know as “John the Baptist.” Since the Robin Williams film Mrs. Doubtfire, I did cop the name from that film and have affectionately renamed my favorite Bible character John the Baptist-Johnny Doubtfire, and why will […]
Of all of the Old Testament prophets, the one that has most often been likened to Jesus Christ is Jeremiah. You may recall that Jeremiah was thrown into prison by those who wanted to kill him because of the Word of God that He preached – sin, righteousness and judgment (Jeremiah 32:2) He was put […]
