Are you getting nervous? I’m excited
For those of us who have been around long enough, this time is unusually chaotic. I read this in Dr. David Reagan’s article this morning. Everywhere we look, in every direction, the world appears to be falling apart. We are racked by wars and rumors of wars. Immorality and violence are rampant. Our money is being devalued and debased. Our educational systems have been hijacked by Humanists and Atheists. Our political systems are gridlocked by value wars and … Continue reading →
Accused of being religious?
Accused of being religious — I hope not. What a horrible thing that is! I am certainly not religious, at least not too much. According to dictionary.com: a religion is a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, especially when considered as the creation of a superhuman agency or agencies, usually involving devotional and ritual observances, and often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs. The problem is that sets are defined and God is beyond definition—at least my God is. Sets of beliefs become merely points of argument: think waste of time. Yes, I can define many of my beliefs. Many of them are Biblical. I do see the … Continue reading →
Book review: “Unlocking the Mysteries of Creation”
I just spent an enlightening, mind-twisting Sabbath devouring this book. It cleared up so many objections I have always had about my upbringing as a top science student in the 1950s, and in my Christian life since 1974. I’ve known that governing my life by my walk in the Spirit coupled with sincere, deep Bible study meant that I could not ignore Genesis. But I’d never questioned my eons of time assumption. Now I can see that … Continue reading →
Evolution is ridiculous
Evolution is ridiculous. The Lord has brought me into repentance lately as I have been confronted with the facts proving that evolution is merely a poorly thought out religion. For example, explosions generate destruction and chaos. The idea that a Big Bang resulted in mankind and civilization is absurd. But it goes much further than that. The Beginning and the Ending Should the Bible be spiritualized? by Dr. David R. Reagan This article is one of the best, … Continue reading →
Thank you for the trial, Lord
Thank you for the trial , Lord. I was listening to John Hagee this morning. He was on one of his wonderful tirades again about the glory of Jesus. But then he slipped into something I have heard over and over since becoming a believer as I studied scripture. Sadly, I rarely hear it from the pulpit. Rejoice in your trials Maybe the NASB puts it better: exult in our tribulations [Romans 5:3]. Pastor Hagee was talking about … Continue reading →
The bible is a lesser Word
The bible is a lesser Word — in truth the baby was larger and more powerful at birth. The Bible can’t really be understood without the help of the Holy Spirit. _________________________________________________ And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father. [John 1:14 RSV] This resounding, magnificent verse is the core of our faith. Here we have another … Continue reading →

Christendom Is Done, Thank God
Christendom Is Done , Now What Do We Do? – Desiring God. I must admit, this one surprised me. Christendom was never a good idea and I was of the opinion that it died a century ago. The reason I say good riddance is my issues with the basic concept of a “church” made up of self-sustaining legal organizations as opposed to being made up of ministries of men and women led by God. One of the quotes … Continue reading →
The church is in trouble
The church is in trouble and few do anything about it. Recognize satan’s attacks on the pastors as a real problem. Many of the new “live” churches are having just as much trouble. Statistics on Pastors – Into Thy Word Ministries. I found these statistics at the Schaeffer Institute site today. As you read them, do not think that we are infested with bad pastors (though that can be true in individual cases). The problem is that Satan … Continue reading →
