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 […]

The Failure of the Church
I recently read an excellent (ongoing) series of news articles in The Epoch Times about the history of public education in America. The author, Alex Newman, carefully documents for the reader the methods by which a succession of individuals and groups holding ideologies that drastically disagree with those of the founding fathers of the United […]
Conversations
I would like to (anonymously) share conversations that I recently had with fellow believers about sharing the truth with others so that we can use this opportunity to examine what the Bible says about the matter. Both of these instances included women who have absolutely beautiful hearts for God—they are saved and show it by […]
Our Conduct
As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, since it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.” And if you call on him as Father who judges impartially according to […]
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 […]

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 […]
The Way is Hard
Question: If it’s so EASY to get into heaven that all we have to do is claim to believe in Jesus, then why did He say that the way is EASY that leads to destruction and HARD that leads to eternal life? It almost seems like there’s more to this, doesn’t it? What is hard […]
Be Angry and Do Not Sin
Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, and give no opportunity to the devil. Ephesians 4:26-27 People prefer to only remember Jesus by how mild mannered and loving He was, but there were times when He did get angry. Can you name the two times that […]
Robots
I always say that if God wanted robots, He would have made them–but He didn’t. He gave us free will–which we LOVE when we are getting our way and HATE when others are getting their way that negatively affects us. But another thought about robots is this: How could a robot possibly be made in […]
