The Violent Take it by Force; an open letter to the church
Posted on October 3, 2017 Leave a Comment
Most of us would not hesitate to defend a helpless person. If we see an elderly person fall down we would help them up. Or if we see a small child alone and lost in a city street, we would stop and call the authorities; it would be impossible for us to turn a blind […]
Why Forgive?
Posted on March 23, 2017 Leave a Comment
This is what forgiveness does… … it frees us! When we can see the offender as someone trapped in their own nightmare, a victim (because without Christ that is what we are) then we have better understanding. When we suffer for Christ, we suffer as Christ did, for a people who had no light or […]
Distracted From Your Purpose

Pesky distractions, we have all been guilty of this at times, huh. We set our mind to something and we promise ourselves we are gong to be productive… tomorrow. Then tomorrow comes and there is that distraction that seems so important at the time. I mean, come on now, we all know the world […]
Does God Know You?

There are many who claim they know God. Jesus, Himself, said in Matthew 7 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven. Many will say to Me on that day [when I judge them], ‘Lord, Lord, have […]

We look high and low for something to numb us or someone to fulfill us. Addictions come in many forms. Drugs, alcohol, relationships, impulse shopping, social media, etc… Because there is that something in each of us that is reserved for Him. He planted it in us. Because He desires an intimate relationship with each […]
The Apostasy

Am I missing something here? Is my Bible the only Bible that does not say, “Come to Jesus and your life will be a happy one, everyone will accept you, you can remain in your sin because God loves everyone and He would never send anyone to hell”? Having read the Bible cover to cover, […]
Stay Awake

So they will fear the name of the Lord from the west And His glory from the rising of the sun. For He will come in like a narrow, rushing stream Which the breath of the Lord drives [overwhelming the enemy]. Isaiah 59:19 Wow! If John said we were in the last hour then, […]
A Strong Foundation

I enjoy walking through neighborhoods with older houses. I appreciate the architecture. Some of them are beautiful. I was raised in a city with very tall buildings. To see the top you have to lean your head back and look up. To me, it is amazing how they were built so tall and detailed. It […]
