oops. Ignore me.

Thank you for the post. The general principle is “too much of a good thing can be bad for you.” Proverbs 25 16 If you find honey, eat just enough— too much of it, and you will vomit. 17 Seldom set foot in your neighbor’s house— too much of you, and they will hate you. Re your 3rd and...

Here is one scientific analysis re aliens visiting us. Blessings.

Thank you for the detailed reply. The parable of the Good Samaritan is one example of love in action: sharing and caring for a neighbor. (See also, Matthew 25: 34-36.) Being gentle and peaceful is another. And if I love God, I will cheerfully love my neighbors. Without love in action, my...

Thank you for posting. Although this is mainstream Evangelism, it stops short of describing the behavioral characteristics Jesus expects of us. Consider, for example, Commandments 6 - 10: the Do Nots. The essence of these Commandments is ”do not intentionally harm your neighbor” (in fact...

May God help you and your doctors with improved health.

Thanks for the detailed reply. Yes, there are members of this forum with whom there is little point in conversing, but that doesn’t mean if we were working on the same project we couldn’t find common ground (although it might not be easy). As to the JW’s, they don’t seem to be the only group...

In 1 Samuel 26, King Saul pursued David, intending to kill him. Then, while Saul and his army were sleeping nearby, David crept up, right beside Saul, but refused to kill him, and instead took his spear and water jug. (1 Samuel 26:7-12) It is curious that these two objects of Saul’s were...

Thanks for the post. Why not look instead for those beliefs we have in common and ways we can work together in the world? As for “blasphemy,” Romans 14 asks us to be gentle with others: 1. Accept the one whose faith is weak, without quarreling over disputable matters. 5 One person considers...

Thanks! Yes, there should not be a conflict between the two, but when atheists teach science—biology, paleontology, etc.—they (perhaps deliberately) cast aspersions on Christianity in particular. On the other hand, Bible literalists often add confusion. Peace.

Thank you. Is this statement accurate? Classical dispensationalism sees a biblical distinction between Israel and the church; mid-Acts dispensationalism moves the dividing line to Acts 9. Before that time, what we might call the “church” was still a Jewish congregation under the law and...

Welcome! Help me understand what a “mid-acts believer“ is? Blessings.

Interesting! For the record: The original Apple Lisa computer (also known as the Lisa 1), released on January 19, 1983, had a base launch price of $9,995. This price included a 5 MB hard drive and was positioned as a high-end business machine with pioneering features like a graphical user...

Interesting question: thank you. Answer: the Psalms. After the reading the verse of the day from Biblegateway, I review a Psalm. Peace.

Plans set for the entire Bible to be read in honor of the USA’s 250 Anniversary. https://www.americareadsthebible.com/ Blessings.

Thanks! Unfortunately, I know nothing about living in Nevada. Best wishes to your friend.

We love our native ocotillo (“oh-ok-tee-yo”)! Fouquieria splendens, commonly known as ocotillo, is more closely related to the tea plant and blueberries than to cactuses. Blessings.

In November 2025, Appearing on The Story with Martha MacCallum on Fox News, Kennedy fumed that he might “need bail money” if Schumer keeps blocking Republican efforts to reopen the government. “God, please give me patience. Because if you give me strength, I’m going to need bail money,” Kennedy...

Thanks for the pertinent comments. It is not quite accurate to say the desert is slowly dying, at least not around Tucson. The non-native species are definitely going away without a lot of help, but in the Catalina Foothills, our native floral species are Ok: just the right amounts of rain at...
