No Time Left
“…Therefore, rejoice, O heavens and you who dwell in them! But woe to you, O earth and sea, for the devil has come down to you in great wrath, because he knows that his time is short!” (Revelation 12:12 ESV) I know a number of folks won’t agree with me, but that’s alright. I don’t…

A Mouthy Snake
A long time ago, back when life was good, and things were as they were meant to be, there lived a man, a woman, and their God. And a mouthy snake. There were other reptiles, birds, and animals in the area, but since they aren’t the principle players in this story I won’t share any…

Spirit Of Deception
I hate to say this, but I believe the spirit of deception is working overtime these days. “Yes, brother, I agree. The whole world has gone mad. Liberals, socialists, and a bunch of tattooed punks are making a real mess out of this country. Things would be better if we could get back to the…

His Permissive Will?
“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable…

An Adulterous Affair
“It just happened. One day I was deeply in love with my wife, and the next day I found myself in bed with another woman.” “I don’t know what happened!” “I wasn’t flirting. I’m just an innocent victim.” “My husband is never around. Even when he’s home, he’s got some stupid ball game on. But…

Call It Persuading
Have you ever met a person who is so wonderfully “together”; impeccable, flawless? The consummate nice guy, or gal, who never does anything wrong? Perfect people who are oh, so proud of their perfection? To even hint there may be a flaw in their thinking, or an error in their ways, gets them ranting and…

Hey Jude
Ever hear of the rock and roll group, the Beatles? Of course you have! As a teenager, and like millions of other teens, I listened to them every chance I got. And, like it or not, their music spoke directly to the heart of their generation, the culture of the day. Ever hear of a…

Sexy Christians
I am going to write some things I believe are from the Lord, but I don’t figure will make me too popular. There are so many verses in the New Testament dealing with the subject of sexual purity, yet the problem persists. Problem? What problem? Sexy Christians. Fornication. Cohabitation. Sex outside of marriage. Have…

By the will of God
Something just struck me as amazing. A revelation, if you will. It may be something you already know, but perhaps not. Sometimes we read, quote, even acknowledge a certain truth and then one day we see it in a new light; with a freshness to it. “Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will…

Your Best Days?
In spite of what some of the most popular preachers and pseudo prophets are feeding us, things are NOT getting better. No, I’m not preaching gloom and doom. I’m simply agreeing with what the Apostle Paul wrote almost 2,000 years ago. “BUT UNDERSTAND this, that in the last days will come (set in) perilous times…
