Many talk about the law of God as something restrictive. For many it has been preached that way as a law of bondage. But within a free society, you have to have laws that govern peace and allow for freedom. The Law of Heaven before the earth was based on one idea - No Being is to Live Selfishly. This allowed for ultimate freedom and if we live by this today, freedom can continue.

“Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see” – Mark Twain - There is perhaps no love language greater than kindness. The story of Abigail shows us the power of kindness that changed the course of history. Kindness still today has the power to change the world. But how to become kind - thats the real lesson.

The great sin of Christian history was outsourcing truth to the experts. The Protestant Reformation brought the power back to the individual to discern what is true for themselves. In a large sense, finding the truth in your life is done by learning how to read and understand the Bible for yourself.

Could the veil be withdrawn and father and mother see as God sees the work of the day, and see how His infinite eye compares the work of the one with that of the other, they would be astonished at the heavenly revelation. The father would view his labors in a more modest light, while the mother would have new courage and energy to pursue her labor with wisdom, perseverance, and patience. Now she k...

What is Prayer? - Prayer is the Soul of Religion Prayer is the opening of the heart to God as to a friend. Not that it is necessary in order to make known to God what we are, but in order to enable us to receive Him. Prayer does not bring God down to us, but brings us up to Him.

The golden question - but what leads someone to ask that question? There are events that precede someone asking this question. What do they have to be exposed to? Are people still asking this question in the world today?

Once we conclude that God is all-powerful and yet a friend who walks with us, we slowly but surely have this experience where our confidence in God increases. When this happens, like with a good friend, we desire input and even guidance on how we should walk through life. Which job should I take? Which person should I be in a relationship with? Should I buy this house or that house?

The Christian world awaits a Messiah to come a second time. The Muslim world, the Jewish world, the New Age movement -all await the coming of a Saviour type figure. But before the Second Coming of Jesus - the Bible describes a false coming - a staged return of Jesus by Lucifer as Christ.

Perception and Reality can be so contrary to one another. We often perceive things that aren't real though. How do we give people more faith in the moment?

For seven years a man continued to go up and down the streets of Jerusalem, declaring the woes that were to come upon the city. By day and by night he chanted the wild dirge, “A voice from the east; a voice from the west; a voice from the four winds; a voice against Jerusalem and the temple; a voice against the bridegroom and the bride; and a voice against all the people.” This strange being was i...

A few months back, I had the privilege of sitting down with a new friend that had found Jesus for the first time. He lived across the country and wanted to get baptized. We planned the celebration and he flew across the country to share his testimony on how Jesus found Him. This is his story.

    I hate winter.  Birds and their songs are missing, the sounds of the frogs at night gone, flowers, sunsets, fresh tomatoes from the garden, blueberries, peaches – warm sunshine.  Winter was never meant to be. A trial of health for me.    John 9:1-4    The only hope of better things is in the education of the people in right principles. Let physicians teach the people that restorative power is...

“Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the East to Jerusalem, saying, Where is He that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen His star in the East, and are come to worship Him.” At the first advent, we learn that God was speaking to men outside of the people that identified themselves as followers of God. Isaiah 60 seems t...

But at the weekly social, someone speaks out – have you heard what’s happening over there? No. What? – another responds. Well remember what the Prince said a while b...
