WHAT YOU WILL GET Thy life will I give thee for a prey in all places whither thou goest. – Jeremiah 14:5 This is the unshakable secret of the Lord to those who trust Him – “I will give thee thy life.” What more does a man want than his life? It is the essential [...]
Keep Looking

In the news now is that there is an expedition being planned to Mt. Ararat in Turkey to find the remains of Noah’s Ark. I think the whole idea is interesting, and pretty cool, but I’m of the belief that they won’t find anything. The most interesting theory I’ve heard about Noah’s Ark was explained [...]

THE SUPREME CLIMB Take now thy son . . and offer him there for a burnt-offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of. – Genesis 22:2 Character determines how a man interprets God’s will (cf. Psalm 18:25-26). Abraham interpreted God’s command to mean that he had to kill his son, and [...]

INSPIRED INVINCIBILITY Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me. – Matthew 11:29 “Whom the Lord loveth, He chasteneth.” How petty our complaining is! Our Lord begins to bring us into the place where we can have communion with Him, and we groan and say – “O Lord, let me be like other people!” [...]

The Pot and the Kettle

Dennis Prager points out what I’ve believed for a long time. Those who charge others with racism, sexism, or any other “ism” are usually themselves the greatest offenders of said charge. This is exactly why Jesus said, in Matthew 7:5 (and similarly in Luke 6:42) “Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine [...]

MORAL DOMINION Death hath no more dominion over Him . . . in that He liveth, He liveth unto God. Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God. – Romans 6:9-11 Co-Eternal Life. Eternal life was the life which Jesus Christ exhibited on the human plane, and it [...]

“Good Wednesday”
April 7, 2004
From KHouse.org, here is a good, thought out, but not conclusive arguement for the case that Jesus was crucified on a Wednesday, not a Friday as tradition holds. No one knows for sure though. If this arguement is true, then today would be the day to mark the crucifixion.

You Can’t Tame a Lion

I really like, and respect, Dennis Prager. I listen to his radio show almost daily, and find it far more beneficial to listen to than Rush Limbaugh, on at the same time. However, I think he is off on this article. Dennis, a Jew, is very friendly towards Christians and Christianity, to the point that [...]

This commentary has a whole new meaning after seeing “The Passion of the Christ”. HIS AGONY AND OUR FELLOWSHIP Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, tarry ye here, and watch with Me. – Matthew 26:36,38 We can never fathom the agony in Gethsemane, but at least [...]

The Truth Has a Way of Coming Out

These people try to pass themselves off as being “loving” and “kind” people. Every so often, you get a true insight into their character though. Foreman was asked: “Is getting the right to marriage for same-sex couples something the Task Force is interested in?” He responded: “We want full equality under the law, which, right [...]
