Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord 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…
Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord 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…
A Flourishing Mental Life 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,…
God’s Plan 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…
Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord READ, LINGER, PROCESS… The original writers of Scripture used exact words to reveal God’s truths.

The original Holy Writ, the God-breathed words, contain God’s original intent. Satan has focused his energies…
Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord 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.

Heaven (An In-Depth Study) Webmaster’s Note: A deeper understanding of both God and the Living Word comes not only from accurate Bible study materials and proper instruction, but also from you.

Legalizing Grace is “Illegal” If you do not believe in Eternal Security, you are legalizing the Grace of God and that… is “illegal.” Just as you cannot work for salvation, you cannot work to keep yourself saved (Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans Chapter 8; Romans 11:5-6,33,36). God saved us through Christ and God keeps us saved through the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:35-39)….
Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord READ, LINGER, PROCESS… My emotional need for poetry, epic and tragedy, fill me with hypnotic charm and dazzling life that may somehow have existed in a world closer to whom we really are… there we believe. Tales of enchantment offer escape without drugs. Perhaps if and when people learn to take…
Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord READ, LINGER, PROCESS… There is no such thing as a complete failure because failure is never complete. We are all complete sinners, completely helpless and completely hopeless. In Christ we are completely justified, completely forgiven, completely righteous and I am eternally grateful. It is interesting that fire somehow consumes itself and…
Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord READ, LINGER, PROCESS… It is early morning; the moon still rules the sky. I woke not in Heaven, so I must write… The waters of oceans and lakes have many faces, ones that wink at the observant eye.

Words of Stone Where do we find happiness or peace of mind? Is the answer in alcohol and wine? Is it just out of reach ? Is it at the beach? Where do we find happiness or peace of mind? Is the answer in fortune we all seek to find ? Is it with some little honey? Is it really…
The Doctrine of the Trinity Webmaster’s Note: A deeper understanding of both God and the Word comes not only from accurate Bible study materials and proper instruction, but also from you. When you take your time, meditate upon key points, and look up given verses for yourself, your walk with the Lord takes on a whole new meaning. We encourage…
Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord READ, LINGER, PROCESS… God, who created life in us, can certainly be trusted with the details of our lives. We just don’t realize the omnipotence of God – God is so far beyond us. Christ made God personable and knowable while still remaining incomprehensible. God is love, justice, and mercy –…
When Satan Applauds By C. S. Craig Written To My Children March 29, 2001 — Revised June 12, 2001 (yet applicable to all). I guess I never really thought about or fully understood the implications of the phrase “we live in the devil’s world.” There are two worlds (realities): God’s world in Heaven—His dwelling place (1 Kings 8:30; Psalm 2:4;…
Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord READ, LINGER, PROCESS… The quiet words of a wise man are heard louder than the shouts of selfish and greedy men. A poor wise man speaks softly – rich men shout. The conclusion of the whole matter of life is: Fear God, obey God, trust His Son-salvation. Better is the one…
Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord READ, LINGER, PROCESS… What part of integrity can we ignore and still remain truthful? What part will we ignore for gain? Fortune? Fame?

Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord READ, LINGER, PROCESS… I find fascinating the words which contain essence, as in the essence of God, or man, or a thing. There is also the quintessence – the fifth essence. But the quintessence I find most fascinating – the hundredth essence. Satan is a sinister codologist of the super-kind…
Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord READ, LINGER, PROCESS… For the rest of my life, I am. Then what? Then… I AM. When satan goes down, Heaven comes down (the second advent). There is nothing about sin, suffering, and death that I like, but I must experience each. Until this body of flesh is left behind…
Thoughts to Ponder in Your Walk with the Lord READ, LINGER, PROCESS… I will always cherish the mountains of Colorado, my home.
