Knowing God

The Search for Relevance

Today, the entire world finds itself in a time of vast, uneasy change, where economic, social, political, and religious turmoil are the rule of the day not the exception. And now, we hear about the advent of AI. Our minds can only imagine how much that’s going to accelerate or increase what is already uneasy change. Already, the constant bombardment produces a toxic environment of unresolved stress. Unresolved stress leads to disconnected lives. Disconnected lives lead to helplessness. … [Read more...] about The Search for Relevance

Prophecy: Knowing the Future in Advance

When Paul began to address problems in the Church in Corinth, he clearly explained that the wisdom of God is a mystery, but that the things of God are revealed through His Holy Spirit.  Christ addressed this stating that the Holy Spirit will guide us into all truth and will tell us of things to come (John 16:13). Here we have a combination of truth and "things to come" as an aspect of the Holy Spirit.  And Peter said that those who, upon repentance and baptism, were given the Holy … [Read more...] about Prophecy: Knowing the Future in Advance

Godly Church Governance

Many have experienced a variety of approaches to Church government at the human level. A widely accepted government in the Churches was a more autocratic, authoritarian style. It was government from the top-down, investing a large amount of authority in the one at the top. Eventually this led to a more “lordship” style of leadership within the Church. It was not an altogether illogical deduction from a human point of view. God’s governance is from the top down. It flows from the Father to His … [Read more...] about Godly Church Governance

The Image of Jesus Christ

"Where there is no vision, the people perish" (Proverbs 29:18 KJV). The word “vision” in this scripture is used in a prophetic sense, a revealed understanding of a future reality. It says that if we lack a purpose and a clear direction of where we are going and how to get there, we are not going to "get there". Knowing where we are going and our purpose, our intent, is extremely important. God gives humanity a purpose, a destination, and He gives us a way to get there. The Bible is a complete … [Read more...] about The Image of Jesus Christ

The Age of Depravity

In observing developments and trends, I am always drawn to the state of the human mind.  I am constantly amazed these days at what the human mind is capable of. On the one hand what the mind can achieve in the area of technology is almost beyond belief. But the area of the mind's activity that comes up more often these days is in the area of depravity. A secular definition of depravity is simply defined as “moral corruption and wickedness”.  The Bible also emphasizes the aspect of … [Read more...] about The Age of Depravity

Rationalism Today

One important concept regarding the economic principles applied globally today was that it sprang from “hedonistic relativism” which is defined as “do what feels good now, for there is no God but ourselves, and tomorrow we die.” As ludicrous as this may sound, this is the prevailing attitude of the world today. Hedonistic relativism is a mixture of hedonism and relativism. They both end in the suffix “ism”. That suffix is derived from both Ancient Greek and Latin meaning “taking side with” or … [Read more...] about Rationalism Today

God’s Thoughts on World Conflicts

The conflicts that we see in the world continue to increase. We probably know of the conflict in the area of Israel and Palestine along with the war in Ukraine, but there are many others that we don’t know or hear about. These conflicts may not be impactful enough to warrant any airtime from the news media. The United Nations, however, in its latest press release are tracking 114 ongoing armed conflicts today of major consequence, specifically in the Middle East, but also in Northern Africa. … [Read more...] about God’s Thoughts on World Conflicts
