Sometinmes I see conversations hapening that throw me for a loop. I try my best to stay in my lane and not notice such things. That being said, the episode today is my cogitations about a conversation had in a private group I am in consisting of preaachers. The very fair and honest question is asked concerning worship, the wporship service, and what we are to do therein. My thoughts here today are...

On ocasion I am asked to write for ther Fulton County Godpel News that my friend Barry O'Dell edits and oversees publishing for the Mammoth Spring church of Christ. He has a podcast where he discusses each article in the paper and the article I am reading today is from one of showe papers. The asignment was "Theological Determinism and Prayer." Barry recorded a podcast wherein he read my article a...

I read a blog that I really wanted to talk about. It is from Luke Taylor at 2BeLikeChrist. In the blog he shares some thoughts about national christian conferences that I have been thinking for some years. In this episode of Cogitations I will read the article and share some of my thoughts about it.   Here is a link to the article: https://www.2belikechrist.com/.../perhaps-skip-the-next...   If yo...

Many times when I ask folk, mostly Christians, what the scriptural exception to God's marriage and divorce law is they say, adultery. This causes all kinds of confusion.

In the book of Ecclesiastes Solomon opines that there is nothing new under the sin. It was presicely that idea that struk me as we were studying through the book of Exodus. It is clear that the powers that be have an agenda to push godlessness in our world and take the power away from Christian men. Take a listen as I share some of my cogitations with you about this phenomenon. I pray that you are...

I have seen the most interesting post and conversation about Christians and tatoos on facebook recently. I am astounded that the issue of Christian liberty and issues of judgment are not better known among our brethren. However, my astonisment concering that pales in comparison to my asonishment at my brehtren simply not undersatning how to rightly divide the Word. Something, incidentally, we are...

We often ascribe to Jesus an almost femeine nature. When looking at His teaching and, especially, His interactions with religous leaders who should know better His nature and engergy is anything but femenine. His enegery is masculine and sometimes downright agressive by today's standards. Yesterday CNN, a leftwing news network in the USA, hosted a town hall meeting where questions were asked of Do...

This episode is review. In Paul's sermon on Mars Hill he declares God's existence to the folk hearing him. From his sermon we can see 6 logical arguments for the existence of God. I hope I say something here that edifies and informs.

Today Aaron and Tony are discussing the idea of moderm day miracles. So many function under the false idea of God directly involving Himslef into the lives of certain indivuals to intervene somehow though supernatural means. It is our position that God does not do this. For our conversation we will look at what the Scripture teaches us about how God acts in the world today and what we mean when we...

The article is from Jack WIlkie. Take a listen as I read the article and share some of my thoughts and observations concerning this phenomenon.   here is a link to the article: https://jackrwilkie.com/.../the-church-of-chr...

This is an exgytra episode. From a recent live stream from Tim Pool there has been a clip that has gone quite viral, viral might not be the word for it. In the clip the foolishness and huberus of the abortion narrative is exposed. It is not about women's rights, health care, nor freedom of choice. Folk, it is about idolotry, the idolotry of self. In this episode we'll watch the clip and make some...

I am going to make this a "twofer" episode. I have seen some discussion on baptism come acorss my timeine concerning the age of accountability and how young someone can be when they are baptized. That question is near and dear to my heart and I hold some stong convictions about it. The secind issue concerning baptism was brought to me via listener request. It concerns being baptized again and whet...

This episode is an expansion on a comment I received in Bible class in my local work.

In another episode I mention that there are four usages of the term, faith, in the New Testament. As that was not he points the episode I didn't expand on that statement.

Today's show is from a listnener asking a pretty taboo question that could probably only be covered in a setting like this one. The core of the question is this: What is a married man and woman allowed to do sexually? In other words, are there things they are not allowed to do with one another sexually? I hope you tune in to this one and really contemplate my thoughts here.     if you want to supp...
