  • The Sovereignty of God, Trump, and the IRGC

    The Sovereignty of God, Trump, and the IRGC

    The way we as Christians think through the wars of this world is interesting to me. There are a great many things to be said about the moral justification (or not) of actions taken by world leaders against other world leaders and nations. There are many things to be said about how some people conduct…

  • Armageddon: The Iranian Conflict and End Times

    Armageddon: The Iranian Conflict and End Times

    Well. I finally saw the word used in association with events currently at play in the Middle East. In her post, Coston claimed that, in the last battle, the nations wouldn’t necessarily fight against Israel but against Christ. I have to say, I have never actually seen such a narrative in the text of Scripture.…

  • Life, Our Most Treasured Possession

    Life, Our Most Treasured Possession

    Reflecting on John 1:3-5 John doesn’t claim any certain method. He doesn’t give us a timeline of origins. He simply claims that all things came into being through Him, the Word, and apart from Him nothing that exists came into being. Consider, again, the Genesis 1 account. In the beginning God created the heavens and…

  • Let Me Introduce You to This Jesus

    Let Me Introduce You to This Jesus

    John 1:1-2 Have you ever wondered what came first? I mean, something had to come first, right? Many stories have been told about the origins of all that exists in what we perceive as a very material, raw, and observable universe. Perhaps it was a chance universe with chance physical laws amid many other chance…

  • The Veracity of the Prophetic Witness

    The Veracity of the Prophetic Witness

    I’m always amazed at the accuracy of prophecy as recorded in the Bible. I’m currently looking at the prophetic witness leading up to Christmas for our church, a different part of the messianic prediction every day. Be sure to look for the 25 days of Christmas from Alex, that’s A-L-E-X, Southern Baptist Chapel. From 1,500…

  • Ministry Monday: Stop Casting New Vision

    Ministry Monday: Stop Casting New Vision

    People don’t need us to cast a grand vision. They need us to be faithful. You’ve heard it before: “Where there is no vision, the people perish.” Great leaders stand on their podiums and at their pulpits to cast a grand vision about how things can be and how we will get there! I ask,…

    Stop Casting New Vision; A Reflection on Proverbs 29:18

    People don’t need us to cast a grand vision. They need us to be faithful. You’ve heard it before: “Where there is no vision, the people perish.” Great leaders stand on their podiums and at their pulpits to cast a grand vision about how things can be and how we will get there! I ask,…

  • Follow the Money; John 2:13-22

    Follow the Money; John 2:13-22

    Jesus was not opposed to violence. He was opposed to injustice. It is unjust for any church or clergyman to interest themselves in making money because they will end up using people instead of ministering to them. Like the pyramids were built on the backs of slaves, so Saint Peter’s Basilica was built on the…

  • God’s Generosity in Salvation: Reflecting on the Praise of Psalm 119

    God’s Generosity in Salvation: Reflecting on the Praise of Psalm 119

    God’s Law is good. It facilitates blessing in our lives and prosperity, peace, justice, and equality for society. The Law does not exist apart from the promise of salvation for those who love God relationally. The Law tells us about God’s lovingkindness—His forgiveness by grace for those who love Him. The psalmist continues to reflect…
