Yes....and this refers to a workman who worked with his hands. But there is a prophetic meaning to this. It involves the way God builds His spiritual house (not made with hands). So the OT has these spiritual and prophetic statements that are meant to be understood in the future tense. One...

The purpose of God's voice and direction in the OT was for service in doing what God wanted His servants to do. It was NOT for an inward conformity to Christ. There was no template to be forged into yet available. It was a walk in one's own faith...not the faith of Christ. So this is describing...

If a man's eye is dark...everything appears dark.

What to watch for? A Christianity that is really just a glorified self-centeredness. As in...how could God refuse me?!

We Gentiles have received Christ without any effort or seeking on our part. It is a gift. He was found by they who sought Him not. But to walk in obedience to His calling does require that seeking. And this is why godly Gentiles are just as rare as godly Israelites. God has not changed and...

The abundant life is found in Christ....and when you enter into His covering anointing the life that is hidden in your heart (Christ in you) burst out of it's protective covering so that you are filled with His Spirit and life. That protective covering is the outer man we usually identify as...

God sees who we are. He tests us and watches how we do in the situations that He allows to arise in our lives. Didn't Joshua and Caleb pass their tests? Did they not do better than their brethren? They trusted God to do the fighting for them so God was with them. So if we surrender fully to the...

I was going to ask you if you were a player or had a musical background. Enjoyed your comments. Props to my fellow bassist as well as my brother! :) Do you have anything you are playing on as a recording? What were your influences? Do you still own a bass....or basses...??? ;) I'm not...

Thank you! Actually the sax player is the only unbeliever I worked with....I met him on a big band gig. I can't play the saxophone....or any other wind instrument. I play guitar as well as bass...but I don't use effects so I needed a guy who was good with the whole sound thing. So if there is...

Just read Exodus! ;) But I know where we are called to. I am a living witness to that high calling. And in every generation the body needs to come together to push into the promises of God. We need to "strive together for the faith of the gospel.". But the traditions of men have rendered this...

First...thank you for your kind comments and interest. Yes I did....Even though I came to the Lord at age 21 I was "on the road" in a band for a few years before that. Back then we used to play clubs and bars...6 nights a week. And on Sunday we traveled to the next gig. All this before my...

This is a common error. This statement would be akin to thinking the wilderness and the promised land were both the same place...since they are out of Egypt. The mistake of a novice. A lack of experience in the presence of God. But the real journey is in the high calling in Christ...to enter...

Appreciate any comments, likes and/or subscriptions to the Youtube channel. Videos to follow! :)

Grace is a gift. The grace of God doesn't justify us....it's what happens to us inside that grace that will determine who we become. We will be judged against what we have received. If God is the Potter then grace is the tool. But we can be very hard to mold...or easier....it depends on us...

The Spirit UPON us is entering INTO Christ. Just like in the upper room in Acts. The Spirit within us is only quickened to life when we enter Christ so that we become filled with the Spirit. In the OT the Spirit would be ON the prophets...but since there was no indwelling Christ...there was...

I'm only pointing out that English takes on the French term to make what is being described SEEM more respectable. :) French classes up the English. Like the French liberté...which just means freedom...becomes liberty in English. Now some would say that liberty has more connotations in the...

Actually not so much. Nation is just French for country....as in "the United Nations" ...just like liberty is to freedom. And church is the plural gathering of they who are called out to follow after God.

They say that people come together in times of war....for one purpose...that of saving their nation. And in such times there is much innovation and creativity...not to mention sacrifice...and this among people of many backgrounds. They come together with one purpose. But the people of God are...

How do we win Christ? How are we conformed inwardly to that which God can empower/ After all, God will not empower us if we are not upright or we have a tendency to twist what God has given us to serve our own interests. So there is our own character to consider. Some will immediately call...

If you say "gullible" slowly enough and repeatedly...it begins to sound like "orange."
