Sometimes, I think that we expect good to compete with worldly entertainment.I think that Covid was good for us by forcing us to back off of so many avenues of entertainment and stay home and be quiet.However, we made an end-run around what God was trying to do by filling our lives up with electronic […]
THE BIBLE TEACHES TRUE SCIENCE: Unhealthy bones: Job 20:11 The sins of my youth “fill up my bones” and plague me till I die. Job 30:17 Days of affliction lead to “bones pierced at night” Psalms 6:2-6 My depression leads me to cry all night and my bones are “vexed” ie agitated, anxious, dismayed Psalms […]
God loves passion! Little babies are born with tons of passion! But our passion must be controlled and directed and then dropped; or it will burn the place down. However, if we try to not be passionate in order to prevent the fire from getting out of control, we will go nowhere and do nothing […]
“There are none so blind as those who will not see!” I know that pharaoh’s heart was hardened by God, but only after he had hardened his own heart. (See Exodus 8:15, 32, 9:34) In fact, God bends over backwards to figure out what stubborn skeptics will use in order to justify their blindness. He […]

I remember the story about the little boy who was caught stealing cookies and properly chastened by his mother. (No it was not I, what would make you think that?) She then hugged him and told him that he was forgiven but to not take cookies without permission in the future. However, he did not […]
All it takes for evil to triumph is for ME to do nothing! God sought for A man to stand in the gap and he found no one, so the city fell! That is like the case in New York where a lady was murdered on the sidewalk in front of an apartment building while […]
WELL WHICH IS IT HABIT or SPONTANAETY-? -FAITH or WORKS? FREE WILL or GOD’S SOVEREIGNTY? I am just not as smart as God so it isn’t surprising that he does not think as I do. I guess that I’d better get used to it! I, trained in a western, Greek type of thinking, I want […]
Everyone remembers the recommendation from President Kennedy, “Ask not what your country can do for you but ask what you can do for your country”.
