Spirit of Truth/The Bible on Trial

Deep Breathe~ I have noticed that when many people get excited about an impending event (either good or bad) their breathing tends to become fast and shallow. Instances of this phenomena are riding a roller coaster just before you go 'over the top' of the initial drop, or being on a commercial airplane as the pilot rolls on the power and starts the take off run. During these moments the heart rate...

Realizing Mistakes~ "When a person who is honestly mistaken hears the truth, they will either quit being mistaken or cease being honest". ~Richard Humpal, J.D. In the past in the field of filming for movies, or video recording for TV, a director calling 'action' indicated that the cameras are 'rolling'. This means that roll of film (in various sizes for different uses) is actually passing through...

Rescue~ My wife was on the way home last night from Ladies Night when she ran out of gas on the freeway just before the exit we use to go home. She was in a particularly bad place, with a narrow space between the limit line and the guard rail, with cars and big trucks going by just a few feet to her left. When she called me just before 10PM I could tell she was scared. I told her that I would be t...

St. Patrick's Day Snakes~ Today is  the Irish Celebration of St. Patrick driving the snakes out of Ireland. In celebration of this event my wife is going to a modified 'Ladies Night' event at a good friends house where she and seven female friends will eat corned beef and cabbage, drink a little bit of Irish Stout, and eat  homemade Irish Soda bread (provide by me at my wife's request). The reason...

On the Road Again~ As per the writing of yesterday, my wife and I are just about to 'head for the hills' and go to our family gathering with my twin sister and her family in Ventura Ca. for our birthday. All persons scheduled to be there will be there (Halleluia!) and we are going to have a memorable time. I will be on air via phone to give the introductions, and Rick is 'on deck' from his house t...

Birthdays~ Tomorrow is my twin sister's birthday, and the my immediate family (her's and mine) are gathering at her home up the coast, about 2 1/2 hours from my house for a celebration; includesd in the festivities are her husband, her three adult children, her eldest daughter's fiance, my wife, my daughter, her husband, my grandson, and my son. This is a wonderful event, tempered by the fact that...

"If it's broke, fix it"~ There is an expression that has been in common use in my parents generation, and it is; "If it's not broke, don't fix it!"  This saying alludes to the fact that with all the new technology that appeared during and right after World War 2 the old tried and true ways of doing things were giving way from taking the time to learning and doing things the way your parents and gr...

Make up your mind, already! Have you every been to a restaurant with someone that just couldn't make up their mind? We all have experienced this situation at least once in our lives, and it is very frustrating. You can see them looking at the menu, maybe muttering under their breath, or even talking outloud about their being too many choices, and that it is just too difficult for them to make up t...

Coincidence, Or Not~ It's easy enough to smile when the world goes along like a song, but the one that's worthwhile is the one that can smile,  When everything goes dead wrong~ This little poem is a modified snippet of a poem by Ella Wheeler Wilcox called WORTH WHILE, that my mother learned from her mother, and has made a big difference the the texture of my life. I have learned that because of wh...

Planner~ I just started using a new (to me) planner system to organize my life. A good friend brought this system to my attention, and we have together been meeting every morning for the last 20 days for a 5-10 minutes chat, to encourage each other in staying on track in it's use. I may write something about my impressions of this system later. But for now, using this planning system has brought a...

Legal vs. Lawful~ When you jay walk, you have brokent the law; but which law have you broken?  Or if you run a stop light you are breaking the law; but what kind of law are you breaking? If you run that stop light and cause an accident, you are breaking the law; but what type of law are you breaking? Is it different from jay walking or just sliding through an intersection on a yellow light that tu...

Change of Plans~ A common experience in our modern society is that plans change. Something comes up that is outside of our plans for the day and we have to adapt to the new conditions. Sometimes this is easy, and sometimes it's a pain in the tush. Either way, we must rethink how we process the demands of the day, and (in the vernacular) 'go with the flow'. This is less easy, and often impossible,...

New Prophetic Paradigm~ If you were with us yesterday you would have heard Don and me lead in to our Best Of Program from February 2008 by talking about what we have experienced in dealing with people that already have a preconceived paradigm as to what the truth of prophecy is, or they have no understanding of truth and where we are in time. There are people (not those that listen to our programs...

Law and Justice~ Rick will not be with us for our radio program on Friday, January 20, 2023, because he is participating as a juror in a trial. It is also interesting that in a real sense all of us are participating in a legal proceeding, in that we are all, one way or another, going to get justice or ourselves by either keeping the Commandment of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus, or not. An...

A Blast from the Past~ Today is January 13, 2023, and this is The Bible on Trial, brought to you by Spirit of Truth Ministry. Rick is on a jury today, fulfilling his civic duty, so I thought I would change things up a little bit and play for you the 5th program ever published by our ministry on Blog Talk Radio, on November 5, 2007. You will hear two voices on this show, the first is my voice, and...

Truth or Death? ~ "Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!" Patrick Henry - March 23, 1775 at the Virginia Convention. This is one of the great quotes to come out of the prelude to the war that is today named the War of the Revolution....
