When physical death occurs, life leaves the body lifeless. The soul lives on, moves on. The soul and spirit of the believer is escorted to Heaven; the soul of the unbeliever (no spirit – spiritually dead) moves to Torments (a compartment of Sheol, located across the great gulf fixed from a now-empty Paradise).
Capacity for human love involves emotion, thought, and expression. Genuine objective love is expressed from Bible doctrine resident in the soul of the believer who is oriented to God, and given out to the world in the daily details of life (1 John 4:7-8).
The first law of thermodynamics is that of energy conservation. This law states that although energy can change forms, it cannot be either re-created or destroyed, and therefore the sum total remains the same – constant. Thus, no energy is now being created or destroyed anywhere in the known universe (Reference Genesis 2:1-2; Psalm 33:6-9, 102:25; Hebrews 4:3,10). Truly, there…
We don’t need to go up to Heaven to find truth and salvation. Christ came down from Heaven to us, to seek and save us by His death-payment for us. The incarnation and the death of Messiah were for the purpose of resurrection, confirming His power and grace to utterly save lost mankind. Jesus Christ is Lord (Jehovah-God) whether or…
Veiled in obscurity in the hearts of those who love a friend is the true meaning of the unexplained – the desire of the ages. The whole inner beauty of friendship-love is known in the deepest of soul-friends as undefinable, but oh-so-real and forever. Enjoy now and hereafter the warmth and peace of special people and places.
READ, LINGER, PROCESS… These days, it is culture that is raising children, not the childrens’ parents. Social media directs their path, conditioning their attitudes and belief systems to worldly from Godly. The problems of men and nations result from a corrupt human nature; turn back to God, world. The affirmation that mankind needs is not from the world, which…
READ, LINGER, PROCESS… The glorious fragrant aroma of the cross of His suffering, for us, will sustain us until eternity and for eternity. God measures humanity by His Son, Christ Jesus the Lord. The summing up of all things is in Christ, as seen in Ephesians 1:4-11. Our position in Christ is found in Ephesians 2:6. “(He) raised us…
The “I want nothing to do with organized religion” argument is based on the rules and corruption of human-created religion. This argument is valid. God Himself stands apart from organized religion. Religion is many things, and they all involve humans making life difficult for other humans by imposing man-made, empty ritual and excessive rules to infringe upon the free-will of…
Every human being on Earth needs to understand “the sin we’re in” and the resultant need for a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. Every human being needs to understand that each of us sin, and our sin is an insult to the veracity (conformity to facts; accuracy; truthfulness) of God. Every human being needs to realize that they are…
THE BREATH OF GOD The Word of God was literally “breathed” into the writers of scripture by God the Holy Spirit. This breath is the same breath that God breathes into every human being at physical birth. His breath gives life to all creation, including His living Word – the Bible (The original Greek translated as living is literally alive)…
READ, LINGER, PROCESS… We inhale pure air, but exhale poison. The breath of soul/spirit life is the same breath that made the heavens (Psalm 33:6) and laid the foundations of the world (Psalm 18:15). How can man trust in man (humanism) with his one breath capacity when man can breathe in God’s breath – the written Word of God?…
READ, LINGER, PROCESS… The solution against developing a love for the world is to develop a love for the Word – both the living Word (Yeshua/Jesus) and the written Word (Bible). The key to conquering love of the world is to love the Father, just as Jesus loved the Father. Victory over the flesh is by the Holy Spirit…

Life beautiful, easy as music the words flow, and on we go… the Lord and I. The skill of the mind is revealed by…
The continuation of the universe and the earth all depend upon the omnipotence and immutability of Jesus Christ (Colossians 1:17, Hebrews 1:3). “Scientific laws” is a misnomer. They are “Divine laws.” Science can observe and classify. Only God can guarantee the continuation of these laws. The universe will not always exist as it does at the present (2 Peter 3:10-12,…
In Memory of My Mother Edna Jeanette Craig “A Tribute to Christian Mothers” A mother’s most beautiful wardrobe is the moral and spiritual character which clothe her soul. She gives herself, and her family is secure. She gives her strength, and her family is strong. She gives her love, and her family learns compassion. She honors her family, and they…
The following is a theological presentation of Biblical knowledge manifested in Scripture and developed here for thought processes of the individual reader as guided by the Holy Spirit; ponder and reflect upon them, one by one. Any extension of Scripture revelation is an infinite undertaking. There is progress in doctrinal knowledge, but there is no increase in Scripture-revelation, only our…
