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 donā€™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

Conditioning the Human Heart

The human heart is something we frequently discuss because there is so much we need to learn and to overcome about ourselves. The heart in this context is a term that simply means what is at the center of a person, who we are, what motivates us and what drives the conditions of our relationships with one another. The spirit in man was given to humans by God enabling them to think and reason and therefore have dominion over the rest of creation (Job 32:8). It also enables a human mind to hurt, … [Read more...] about Conditioning the Human Heart

Godly Justice

Administering justice is a major theme of the Bible. King David administered justice to all his people (2 Samuel 8:15).  Indeed, God expects His people to administer justice: "Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world will be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters? Do you not know that we shall judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?" (1 Corinthians 6.2-3). So that is the question: Do you and I practice justice … [Read more...] about Godly Justice

A Place to Dwell

What does a home mean to you?  I think if we are like most people, our homes are extremely important to us, and they take a tremendous amount of our time and resources to acquire and maintain.  There is a popular saying which says, ā€œthe home is where the heart isā€ and I think thatā€™s a valid statement. Our hearts crave certain things for our homes.  There is a practical side of it all where we try extremely hard to create and operate within a framework that provides … [Read more...] about A Place to Dwell

The Book Of Life

According to those who take the pulse of societal trends, many people admit to having no meaning in their lives.  That seems to be a big factor behind a lot of the anti-social activity we see. They donā€™t know what their life is about.  Religion, politics, and the culture at large fail to give any essential meaning to life.   However, understanding the Book of Life mentioned throughout the Bible does enhance the relevance of our Christian lives. King David is one who … [Read more...] about The Book Of Life

The Liberal Mind

From the Romans to the Biden era, the word ā€œliberalā€ has taken on many meanings. It is one of those ā€œit all dependsā€ words. Yet, it has not always had a negative connotation as it does today in political/social circles. The cradle of its development, which impacts us today, was in 18th and 19th century Europe. It was a response to absolute monarchical rule. Liberal was the idea of individual freedom and liberty, through limiting the powers of government. Government was expected to protect … [Read more...] about The Liberal Mind

By Your Patience Possess Your Souls

In Luke 21 Christ is talking to His disciples who have asked Him what the sign will be that "these things" are about to take place.  The time of the end is the context: Nations are rising up against nations, kingdom against kingdom. There are famines, pestilences and great earthquakes in various places. As we go further away from these beginning signs which we can observe today itā€™s going to get more difficult for Godā€™s people as the end times draw nearer. It becomes more intensely … [Read more...] about By Your Patience Possess Your Souls
