Communication problems! Sometimes we can hear what a person is really saying with his physical mouth by the tone of their voice, but how well are we able to hear or write so that any reader can hear us? If we were all writing experts and all wrote in the same language, perhaps... but really we...

But then again there are some who at least some of the time act as if being right is always the most important thing. Of course it is not! Give God the glory!

Think how Jesus must have felt when he said this... "From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him. Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?" John 6:66-67

Why is this new birth better than the Life given to Adam and Eve in the beginning? Is God a respecter of persons?

And the Tree of Life is Jesus! This is the Hope set before men, but how does one enter in...? Jesus is also the flaming sword guarding the entrance to the Garden wherein is that Tree of Life. In order to approach the Tree and eat thereof, we must pass through that sword put there to prevent us...

For many people this would be so, but it is an individual walk with God and an individual decision between each person and God. Some people have no tolerance for alcohol and one drink will only lead them necessarily to the next and the next and so forth... into deep trouble. In one place Paul...

Especially during these last couple of years where I have not been regularly attending a physical church services I resort to my own collection of old hymns and what I can find on the Internet. I do believe God helps me find songs that comfort and edify me for He indeed knows our needs better...

Give God the glory little sister in Christ!

But all of these enemies are like those of 2000 years ago who thought they could stifle the purpose of Jesus by killing his physical body. They did kill his body, but they could not and have not silenced Him. The same thing is true today. They may indeed kill our bodies, but not the Body of...

Perhaps the whole world that men of flesh are able to perceive according their limited radar... but the truly safe haven should be within... Remember well the parables of Jesus and... "Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you." Luke 17:21...

And then with this salvation from death consider the reason Jesus came to us: "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." John 10:10

There is power in the tongue, but who is leading our tongue? Consider the bit in a horse's mouth! "But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God. Out...

Yielding to versus quenching the Spirit of God!

That is a very old song. I have not heard it sung much for years, but at one time...! Give God the glory and praise His wonderful name! Try this one:
