“Blessed assurance”, that old hymn that speaks as thought the author had arrived.  Well this is where I falter.  Romans talks about the elect and predestination while Revelation and James speak about your works that will get you into the Lord’s kingdom.   I totally get that you gotta do what you believe, not justContinue reading “Reconciling seeming contradictions in the Bible”

Today I’d like to recommend a book of short stories that was a favorite of the late , Wonderful apologist, Ravi Zacharias.  I heard about the book from Ravi saying he couldn’t go into scripture cold so this book, “A Packet of Surprises” by F. W. Boreham helped him in that direction. The book isContinue reading “Short Stories for Your Spirit”

“Veritas?  What is veritas?”  Pontius Pilate’s words to Jesus before he sentenced him to death.  What is truth, he asks?  Well I’m kinda led to believe it’s not an adjective but a noun, a person, not a concept. Pilate was clearly a man with a seared conscience.  He might as well have wielded himself theContinue reading “In Spirit and in Truth”

DNA is a terrible determinant for the ties that bind in a family, be it in the arena of talents, common interests, music tastes, etc….all those things which form our individualities..Continue reading “Loose Family Ties”

So once there was a boy…that liked a certain girl.  But then later he didn’t like her, but she then liked him, so he wondered what happened to him liking her. So he thought to himself, she likes me and I have liked her, so maybe I should put myself into this and then itContinue reading “Spiritual Discernment – like riding a bike”

Jesus of Nazareth once told a parable about a certain servant, with a duty to fulfill. The question Jesus posed was this, ‘when dinner time rolls around, will the good servant go and recline at the table alongside his master?  Or will he serve the Master, only then eating his own portion, considering such aContinue reading “Fight, Flight, or Fun Night?”

My imaginary friend is special..a little outside the norm as imaginary friends go. First, my friend does not share a gender identification with me.  She is a she.   Second, others can see her but I can’t. Third, only I know her real identity.  And only I can understand who she is to me, correctly.Continue reading “My Imaginary Friend”

So I understand the rationale behind and the reality of holding your tongue.  We are in a battle and giving free rein to your thoughts, esp. your complaints is letting your shield down to the enemy.  Thoughts are natural, common to the human race.  Letting the tongue, a little thing prone to evil, take overContinue reading “FaithFUL”
