Can you believe in one and believe in the other too? I believe so. They actually both work together for the glory of God. One is God’s calling and empowerment, and the other is our choice and will-power. The Bible says: “And we know that all things work […]
“And the children of Israel spake unto Moses, saying, Be hold we die, we perish, we all perish. Whosoever cometh any thing near unto the tabernacle of the Lord shall die: shall we be consumed with dying?” (Num 17:12-13). I’ve been reading the Book of Numbers in the […]
I am still reading Bill Weise’s book on “Hell”, and I’m in Part Two now. I’m in the first chapter, where he tries to give an overview of why God created the world, man and everything. He talked about God creating the tree of knowledge of good and […]
I suffer from a most common ailment known to man…the inability to escape my head, ignore my heart nor outrun my body. I am limited by my own perceptions of the world, constructed by my personal experiences, defined by my beliefs. Being spiritual has not yet delivered me […]
The mind is as to the heart as reason is as to passion. They war continually and rarely agree. The mind believes it is superior, and seeks always to lead the heart. The heart however longs for independence…to do as it pleases, damning the consequences. I see parallels […]
Do you think that it is possible that someone in this world right now could wake up tomorrow morning and declare that he or she is a dog, living inside a human body? Do you think that if such a person was to come out {of the closet}, […]
“Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God” (Romans 13:1). Okay, it’s been a while since I wrote about my Bible reading journey. It’s not because I haven’t come across some […]
Part One Once upon a time, God established a grand light (imagine the Sun) to enlighten our paths on the Earth. The light revealed what was true and exposed what was evil. It shall be called Morality. Men began to hide from this light, living in shadows and […]
When you hear that the end of the world is nigh…and God’s judgement is coming upon the world, what is the primary emotion you feel? I suspect it is FEAR! But fear is what unbelievers should feel, people who do not know God or those who do, but […]
“And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, […]
“I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled? But I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I straitened till it be accomplished! Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I […]
I think we all think that we are better than we really are. We would like to believe that given a moral dilemma, we would rise to the occasion and do the right thing, no matter the consequence. We are also quick to damn those who fail in […]
In your group of friends, you’re known as the ‘Christian’, ‘Goody-Two-Shoes’, and – on a bad day – ‘Bible-Basher’. You’ve learned that your opinion is not wanted, appreciated or even acceptable in group discussions. But your friend has just told everyone at the lunch table that she’s planning […]
Christian evangelism has entered new waters in this our modern world. In some ways, it is easier to share your beliefs…with the advancement of technology, particularly the Internet and social media. And in many ways, it is harder to be received, not least because those who do not […]
I have a long way to go. I just threw a fit, cursed at and abused a truck driver who was reversing into my car because I refused to move out of the way, so he could make a 10 minutes maneuver, in preference that he’d move aside […]
