The Gettysburg Address and Today’s Civil War
When I think about this beloved nation of ours, I can’t help but wonder just what’s in store. The words of Abraham Lincoln keep playing over and over in my mind (I changed the first four words to reflect today’s year. Lincoln’s words are in quotation marks). Twelve score and four years ago ”our fathers…

An Unholy Agenda
There are several trains of thought running throughout the social media world these days. Each camp is accusing others of having, what I’ll refer to as, an unholy agenda. What I mean by that is an agenda or some sort of diabolical plot to force the masses into a certain way of thinking. A particular…

Step into the Supernatural
Most people would agree there is a “natural realm”, and a “supernatural realm”. I do. Do you? Hollywood does. So does God. And although He dwells within the supernatural realm, He can easily affect the natural realm without any difficulty (and He wants to!); He simply wants and needs cooperation on our part. I’m not…

What would Jesus say to Americans?
I admit this is my opinion, and I’m not claiming any “divine revelation” or “thus saith the Lord”. But I do believe this with my whole heart. I believe, if Jesus were standing in any of our country’s major cities, He’d have some things to say to us. To His followers the message would be…

Can The NSA Stop End Time Prophecies?

I was watching the republican presidential debate the other night and some of their comments got me to mulling over a few ideas in my head. Mainly, can the NSA stop end time prophecies from happening? The NSA (National Security Agency)…

Our Golden Calf

Everyone except God, Moses, and Joshua. America has made, or has at least tolerated, self absorbed, egotistical politicians whom we like to laud…

The Candidate Most Likely To Be Elected
In anticipation of the upcoming caucus and primary season, I’ve prepared a piece describing the candidate most likely to be elected. It’s a little lengthy, but it will only take you a few minutes to read. Hey, it’s not my fault that there are so many candidates. Just in case you’re wondering how I, a…

Safe Christianity
Believe it or not, I really do enjoy messing with people and their religious minds. Not because I want people to hate me, or call me a jerk or an idiot. Nor is it because I feel I have all of the answers to the Church’s problems. One of my favorite verses explains why I…

The Closet
It seems like the world is all geared up for house cleaning. Do you know what I mean? When I was a teenager, my little brother, who is nine years younger, had a messy closet. From time to time I had the chore of “helping” him clean it out. You wouldn’t believe the things we’d…

Seven Churches
Have you ever considered Jesus’ words in the Book of Revelation: “He who has ears to hear, let him hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches”? Brethren, I don’t believe those words were meant solely for those seven churches mentioned in chapters two and three. I strongly believe those words belong to us,…
