The Marriage Bed
“Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge. Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you…” (Hebrews 13:4 – 13:5 NKJV) What an interesting passage of scripture. I…

What is a “Manly” Man?
I’ve heard the same thing before, but when someone said it again a couple of days ago I thought to myself, “What a jerk! And horribly deceived!” Maybe I shouldn’t have thought the first part, but then, it’s what the guy who said it was acting like. What did he say? “I’ve never felt so…

Adultery – A Brainless Act
This is for everyone who is even remotely entertaining the idea of having some “extramarital fun”. Who has become flirty with the guy at work, or the gal next door. The couple who’ve allowed their marriage to become nothing more than a document filed in a county courthouse somewhere. For the person who believes internet…

The One Second Rule
“Wait a second!” Have you ever considered just how long a second is? Or how much can be accomplished, either good or bad, within the little bit of time we call a second? For example, if you travel at the moderate speed of 60 miles an hour, or a mile a minute, in one second…

Guys, are you training to be a rapist?
Rape is NEVER okay. It should NEVER be tolerated, and its punishment should be VERY SEVERE. With that said, let’s look at ways it may be prevented. And no, I’m not going to blame the victim for the actions of the rapist. Rapists aren’t just born, they develop. No little guy is ever destined to…

Is there something we’re missing about water baptism?
I believe there’s more to water baptism than a simple “outward sign of an inward work”. Obedience goes deeper than “just because He said so”. It seems there’s a degree of power we may not be utilizing, because we haven’t totally understood the wisdom of God and water baptism. Jesus told His followers to “Go…

It’s more than a bathroom issue…
Originally posted as “How to face this strange, crazy world.” First off, at the end of this post I offer you some advice about how to face this crazy, strange kind of world. Okay, on with the facts. I just read where, a couple of days ago, the Target Corporation restated their commitment in allowing…

Dad, what if your son followed your example?
Today, while working at one of the neighborhood malls, I happened to notice a young man, probably in his late twenties, walking hand in hand with his son (maybe four years old). I was thinking to myself, what a nice picture. A father taking time with his son. I thought maybe they were going to…

What’s Wrong With Shacking Up?
The term “shacking up” has been in use since around 1935. Of course, the practice of a man and a woman living together, and participating in all of the privileges of marriage (i.e. sexual relations) has been going on for a lot longer than that. So what’s the matter with it? If two people love…
