  • 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…

  • Thinking Biblically About the Alien, Man-Made Politics Aside

    Thinking Biblically About the Alien, Man-Made Politics Aside

    People always assume their agendas are correct and are quick to accuse people who don’t agree with them as being completely godless. Not many people today really try to understand someone else’s position. They simply draw caricatures and criticize those caricatures in ways that don’t actually help anyone. They only accomplish the heightening of other’s…

  • Speaking for the Unspeaking: Bathsheba’s Advice to Her Grandchildren About Living Justly in Proverbs 31.

    Speaking for the Unspeaking: Bathsheba’s Advice to Her Grandchildren About Living Justly in Proverbs 31.

    Solomon advised his children using the words of his mother, Bathsheba. Don’t give your strength to women. Don’t live such a lifestyle by which you drink wine or desire strong drink. Essentially, don’t live life for the purpose of satisfying yourself. When we live life to satisfy our own lusts, hungers, or thirsts, we come…

  • Seeing the Kingdom of Heaven

    Seeing the Kingdom of Heaven

    Have you ever seen God? Some of you will answer by telling me how you see God working or how you see God in nature or people. Those things are not God Himself. I will venture to guess that you have never seen God. Yet, we believe He is. A vast majority of people on…

  • It’s Been A While, But I’m Finally in a Healthy Frame of Mind

    It’s Been A While, But I’m Finally in a Healthy Frame of Mind

    Hurt is hard. I realized in the last month that it has been more than a year since I have done any serious writing. I had given up on ministry and started my own business because, frankly, I was done being hurt. At the beginning of 2023, a friend of mine (a couple, actually) told…

  • Bearing False Witness and Loving Justice- Exodus 23:1-9

    Bearing False Witness and Loving Justice- Exodus 23:1-9

    This set of laws promotes truth in society. The people were not to bear false witness, neither favoring the poor nor rich nor taking bribes. They were not to make false charges against others or misrepresent them. What is God’s goal? He desires to teach His people what it means to be just. We treat…

  • The Foolishness of Our Faith

    The Foolishness of Our Faith

    Paul is writing to the believers at Corinth to encourage unity through maturity in the faith (v. 10). He is writing with unity as his goal because there are divisions in the church (v. 11-17). Jesus made Paul an apostle and sent him to preach the Gospel, not in cleverness of speech so that the…

  • When Will There Finally Be Justice in the World? /Revelation/

    When Will There Finally Be Justice in the World? /Revelation/

    The four cherubim have presented their testimonies concerning the current condition of the world in the First Century: Jesus is conquering the world. Peace has been taken from the earth. The earth is given to consumerism. People are dying and going to Hell. As Jesus continues to break the seals on the legal document He…

  • The Kavanaugh Effect

    The Kavanaugh Effect

    No reasonable person is speaking out against Dr. Ford, and rightly so. Those who continue to lambast her probably need a good punch in the face, and the Honorable Judge Kavanaugh probably needs a few beers after what Senator Graham referred to as a political “Hell” metaphorically engulfed him in flames. Who I saw during…
