To the thief one size fits all. If one cannot swim the great ocean of knowledge then he should go by boat. Leaders of nations in order to start wars, must take the first bullet, politicians the second, their sons the third, and liberals the fourth. Lying is not careless truth – it is lying. The person who can do everything…
IN SEARCH OF WISDOM Man searcheth, but where shall wisdom be found? And where is the place of understanding? Few knoweth its place nor its price, for it is priceless and its place is not where men look. WISDOM COMETH BY FAITH Wisdom never rests, though she may indeed forever, or for a time, withhold her knowledge in the hidden…
In my distress I called upon the Lord, and cried unto my God; He heard my voice out of His Temple, and my cry came before him, even into His ears (Psalm 18:6) And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly, yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind (Psalm 18:10). The heavens declare the glory of…
WORDS OF WISDOM WITH QUOTES FROM THE WORD OF GOD He who is devoid of God’s power to forgive is devoid of God’s power to love. If we cannot forgive, how can we expect God to forgive us? If we say we have not sinned, then the truth is not in us and we speak against ourselves. If we expect…
Wisdom is brightest in the day-spring of morn; I have inherited the wind’s song. Wisdom shall flourish like a branch in Spring – I drink from wisdom’s fountain. Wisdom in my soul sustains laughter; I shall flourish in His eternal love hereafter. My children – my glory, my children’s children – my crown. The day is done, oh my soul,…
Commitment and faithfulness are moral virtues which help bind families together. The moral dimension in America has disintegrated to a serious moral disorder. Sex dominates the media, especially TV. To avoid the immoral sexual bombardment, my wife and I mainly watch sports (and even then only a few select games and teams, minus commercials because they too exploit sex), history,…
READ, LINGER, PROCESS… How many are on a quest for a past that will never return? The past is gone forevermore. We pursue a past that we shall never catch while running from self in the present – these are the good ol’ days. We run to and from the past, rather than change our ways. Supernatural truth, supernatural…
READ, LINGER, PROCESS… Trillions of people have lived throughout history, and time and destiny have spun these lives together like strands in a fabric that somehow is each one of us, and we each become one blanket that covers oblivion, and we cannot see where we’ve gone, and we look for answers in all the wrong places. So, I…
I pray this study of the eternal state will increase your faith, humble your heart, and nourish your soul… for Christ and in Christ, Amen. What happens to the believer after death? Will we be married in Heaven? Will we still be a family in heaven? Just as life begins at physical birth for each of us here on earth,…
Memories are shadow-images of the past. Perhaps I can share yesteryear with you in various flickering flashbacks – cherishable memory moments and wild imaginings. Let your imagination paint its own portrait. Exploring the rugged mountain trails before me, I followed other footsteps into the great unknown. Soon, I came to meadows resting on forest floors, covered with dazzling flowers in…
It is extremely important that we understand the uniqueness of our Lord. He is our Savior. Who could ask for anything more? But God, without asking anything more, gave us so much more in the unique person of His Son, even when we were not alive to earn it or to ask for it. The grace of God is freely…
In the material world, survival depends on the spiritual. Don’t ask what’s wrong with American morals, ethics, and responsibility. Ask where is the spiritual discernment in each American. America is in a battle for survival, a battle of principle against principle – principle against principalities. Christians must remain true to Christ and true to the calling in Christ – take…
Why is the word “Gospel” offensive to people? Because the Gospel gives all the credit to Christ’s finished work on the Cross and thereby gives all the glory to God through His Son. Humanity cannot stand not getting any of the credit because each individual must abandon the concepts of human merit and human ego, and trust the death, burial,…
DISAGREEMENT – TOLERANCE – JUDGMENT If disagreement did not exist, then tolerance would be unnecessary. Real differences exist between real people, therefore tolerance is a necessity to co-existence. Dialogue between persons of differing viewpoints requires respect, not agreement. Tolerance is best defined as we agree to disagree, with respect. The understanding by both parties that two differing views cannot be…
READ, LINGER, PROCESS… Genesis is the embryonic foundation of God’s historical truths – the connecting rod of all books of the Bible. God is absolute necessity – we are beneficiaries. There is gain, there is forfeit, there is volition. When the world seems contrary, look inward. I wonder what it is like to have all the answers with no…
READ, LINGER, PROCESS… Ego has a way of sawing off the branch it perches on. If we are not willing to keep the faith by living a life in Christ and for Christ, then we certainly would not be willing to die for Christ or even suffer for Christ – our faith is measured by our obedience. Intimacy in…
The tangled false self (embraced by most of us) struggles subconsciously with a myriad of mental issues. Perhaps from childhood struggles of pain, lack of affirmation, fears, anxieties, embarrassments, failure (real or imagined). The way we deal with the problem details of our thinking-reactions determines our lifestyle. What empties or fills our thinking-reactions may be true, imagined, or emotional. The…
Genesis 1:1 through 2:8 is like a target with concentric lines leading to a bullseye; a beginning point between man and God; a place where truth becomes reality and reality becomes false. God’s Plan centers around Christ, the Personification of Truth. Each facet of Scripture is designed as a directive, pointing to the bullseye – Christ. Humanity has a sin…
READ, LINGER, PROCESS… The original writers of Scripture used exact words to reveal God’s truths. Their Holy Spirit-inspired words contain the richest intent of truth, and our utmost skill is required to preserve God’s truths. The original Holy Writ, the God-breathed words, contain God’s original intent. Satan has focused his energies to proliferate an excess of liberating translations evident…
READ, LINGER, PROCESS… As human beings, we alone, in all of creation, have the inherent ability to live uniquely in diverse realms – the spiritual world and the material world. I believe that our human soul is the platform, even the launching pad, of humanity’s created trichotomy, where body and spirit become one with the soul at the point…
