“Our (Christians’) problem isn’t that we don’t have God in our lives (We do). Our problem is that He is one among many!” This thought hit me like a brick this morning as I was reading bizarre happenings in the latter part of the Book of Judges. It involves stealing from family, Las Vagas style […]
Good morning everyone, Matthew 27:41-42-So also the chief priests, with the scribes and elders, mocked him, saying, 42 "He saved others; he cannot save himself. He is the King of Israel; let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in him. There are times in our walk with God that the […]
Perhaps as a reaction against prosperity gospel, we have gone too far denouncing peace, security, and prosperity. We have made it sound like we are against those things and it’s evil to seek after those things. But the Bible again is our faithful guide pulling us to have a correct and balanced view on things. […]
Good morning everyone, John 2:24-25-But Jesus on his part did not entrust himself to them, because he knew all people and needed no one to bear witness about man, for he himself knew what was in man. Probably the greatest thing about love is being connected with people who share with us the delight and […]
It matters how we ask, does it not? Janet and I often correct our children when they ask with a wrong attitude. They might say the right thing, but if their attitude is such that they are taking things for granted, then they will NOT get what they ask. We do not want our kids […]
If this era we are living in were in the Bible, I wonder how it would be described? What are our gods? What are our spiritual conditions? What are we missing? We read that about the Israelites aplenty in the Bible. I know whenever we come across a Bible passage, we just skim through. But […]
Good morning everyone, Matthew 19:16,20-22 16 And behold, a man came up to him, saying, "Teacher, what good deed must I do to have eternal life?…20-22 The young man said to him, "All these I have kept. What do I still lack?" 21 Jesus said to him, "If you would be perfect, go, sell what […]
Ever told your kids not to snack on sweets before a meal? Or you remember being told that as a youngster. Why? Because sweets will ruin their appetite and they won’t want to eat a good, nutritious meal. Ever seen kids that only snacked and didn’t eat good meals? Did they look healthy to do? […]
Good morning everyone, Matthew 17:1-2,9,16 And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James, and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his clothes became white as light……. vs9 And as they were coming […]
I just read this morning about Samson. You know, the freakishly strong man who was brought down by a girl named Delilah? I’m not sure what the Bible is trying to teach through that man. I sat there and thought long and hard, “Why is this in the Bible?” It certainly doesn’t fit our Christian […]
