More in the “Jesus Said – -” series soon, but I need to share this for your weekend consideration. God has repeatedly taken me to two scriptures recently, in response to my inquiries about the church, “She has not acknowledged that I was the one who gave her the grain, the new wine and oil,…

Jesus said, “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”* Could this be as serious as it sounds? Is Jesus…

Saturday morning I went down to the basement and saw water flowing out of the top of the hot water heater. This was BAD! BUT WAIT. It hadn’t even covered the entire floor yet. I had sooo much to be thankful for – – I mean, what if – -? “Deal with it.” But that…

Godliness, the culture of the Kingdom of God which is entered through the narrow gate as we take up our cross daily and follow Jesus, is the most wonderful and fulfilling way to live. Nothing this world offers comes even close. Satan lies. In the Beatitudes, Jesus describes the character that develops naturally as we…

Psalm Thirty Two, Of David, niv 1) Blessed is the one    whose transgressions are forgiven,    whose sins are covered.2) Blessed is the one    whose sin the Lord does not count against them    and in whose spirit is no deceit. 3) When I kept silent,    my bones wasted away    through my groaning all day long.4) For day and night    your hand was heavy on me;my strength was…

So, is America’s current administration and its degenerate policies simply “politics as usual,” or is it being allowed by a greater power as part of something bigger? And how about Covid-19?

Many professing Christ-followers are so fixated on American politics, and national and world events, and so vested in building their personal and religious kingdoms, that they can’t see God at work in our world. In spite of her abandonment of God and His ways, “America” isn’t the most pressing issue for her Christians. Rather, it…

Jesus said, “I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.”* But haven’t the gates of hell overcome our voice for righteousness in America? ARE we Jesus’ Church as much as we like to think we are? Where WAS our influence in that sequence of court cases and moral decline?…

Picking up from Sept. 21, feminism’s rejection of God’s authority set the stage for the Jan. 22, 1973, Roe v Wade SCOTUS decision on abortion, which moved us toward their June 26, 2015 redefinition of marriage as we increasingly abandoned God’s laws. That decision opened the floodgates for a rush of heretofore unthinkable moral depravity…
