Do you see a man who is wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him. Proverbs 26:12Let me be frank and to the point. Getting what you think you want is not always a good thing. Sometimes, usually after it’s too late, there are deep, heart-wrenching regrets. Just […]

A Short Parable About Badly Behaved Children
A young couple excitedly started their family with high hopes for a happy-ever-after ending. They did everything in their power to raise their children to know the difference between right and wrong. They carefully instilled biblically moral values in them. They set a good example. They had every reason to expect that their efforts would […]
Hated “Haters”
Paul would surely have been convicted of hate speech if he lived in our day in some parts of the world—maybe England or Canada? Coming soon to America? He told it “like it is,” but not because of being “mean” or “hateful.” He wanted people to have their eyes opened instead of living in blindness. […]
The “Ticket”
A couple of weeks ago, I was searching online for the meaning of a Greek word and ran across a blog with an article saying that it is not necessary to continue believing to be saved. The author said that the Greek word used for “believe” does not mean that, and that only a moment […]
Walk by Faith Not Sight (Or No Longer Blind?)

What Kind of Faith? (or “Let No One Deceive You”)
Question: Does your faith reassure you that even though you slip many times and “get dirty” the “pristine white robe” that was provided to you by Jesus when you believed on Him for salvation, He will forgive you and wash you clean again every time you ask Him (1John 1:7-10, Rev. 22:14); or does it […]
Who’s Your Daddy?
A word of encouragement to be ready when Jesus returns: Please don’t buy it if the devil tries to sell you the lie that children of God can enjoy their sins just as much as the rest of the world. Our old nature loves to hear it, because its just plain easier to go along […]
The Eclipse
These are dangerous times we’re living in. Not because we’ll be harmed by today’s total eclipse (August 21, 2017), but because of the risk we take when we let anything obscure the Light of the world from our view. Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me […]
