The Last Great Day, Rivers of Living Waters

What does the the biblical “Last Great Day” have to do with God's plan of Salvation?  Who does it represent and when is this last prophetic day? Is God only interested in some select group of humanity? God is in fact concerned about all humans who have ever lived: “Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, . . .3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who desires all men to be saved … [Read more...] about The Last Great Day, Rivers of Living Waters

The Passover Effect

The world is thrashing around in a leaderless confusion, leaving masses of people to lead meaningless lives. The world doesn’t understand the purpose for our being on this planet. Few people know why they exist. Most don’t know why they are here or where their lives are supposed to be leading them. They may know what they want and what they don’t want from their leaders, but they don’t even know what good leadership looks like. “As for My people, children are their oppressors, and women rule … [Read more...] about The Passover Effect

Don’t Squander Your Opportunity

Some years ago, featured on a 60 Minutes program was a musical performance, “Alive & Kickin’”. The cast was all over fifty-five. Their stories were deeply compelling; overcoming drug addiction, renewing life after a criminal past, and family tragedy. These were individuals who, due to the vagaries of life, missed opportunities to sing and perform. They were castaways being given a second chance to find their voice. In a sense, God has given each of us a second chance to live a radically … [Read more...] about Don’t Squander Your Opportunity

Christmas: Does It Matter?

In a popular 1965 Broadway musical set in tsarist Russia, the main character insisted that tradition provided balance in the villagers’ lives and that, without traditions, their lives would be “as shaky as a fiddler on the roof.” Traditions are indeed comfortable and somehow reassuring. If we leave the security of the customs we have grown up with, we feel shaken and a bit unstable, as Tevye so eloquently said. Tradition plays a powerful role in the customs that various cultures embrace. … [Read more...] about Christmas: Does It Matter?

The Sabbath and Agape Love

The 10 Commandments continued to be revered by segments of the population even today. Traditionally esteemed by the founders of this country, they have been displayed in government buildings, courtrooms, and in homes across the country. Just recently, Louisiana proposed requiring the 10 Commandments to be displayed in every public classroom. Christians and Jews alike recognize the 10 Commandments as the source of the West’s broader moral values and the foundation of many of our laws and legal … [Read more...] about The Sabbath and Agape Love

What Is the Kingdom of God?

What is the Kingdom of God? I don’t think we can overstate the importance of the answer to the question. There are so many theories out there about different systems of belief including different definitions of the Kingdom of God. We need to think about the end result of what those beliefs produce and about what the implications of their version of reality are. The idea of the Kingdom of God was clearly central to Christ’s ministry making it a fundamental premise of our hope, of our purpose, … [Read more...] about What Is the Kingdom of God?

The Prophetic Return of Christ

Our lives consist of and are measured by pivotal events and experiences that change our direction and our behavior. They can change our outlook on life. i Throughout history God has placed pivotal events upon humanity to shake us from the paradigms which allow us to justify our behavior, to define for ourselves what is good and evil. Some have developed a form of godliness but, whether knowingly or unknowingly, deny the power and purpose of God as their Creator and Sustainer.  The Bible … [Read more...] about The Prophetic Return of Christ
