For the most part, everyone wants to keep their stuff. Yes, there are those people of whom we say, “He’d give his shirt off his back if someone asked for it.” This is true of some people, but in reality, the percentage of people willing to give up everything is quite small. We had a … Continue reading It All Melts

Iran, Elam, Persia
American warships are positioning themselves near Iran. The rumors of war are raging. The buildup of naval and air power is very similar to what happened off the coast of Venezuela before America took President Maduro into custody. Many believe that if there is an attack on Iran, the goal is regime change. Is what … Continue reading Iran, Elam, Persia
Will America Do What’s Needed?
Mark 3:24-26, “And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand. And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end.” All of us should pay attention to every word God says, but … Continue reading Will America Do What’s Needed?
Is The Antichrist Alive?
Is the Antichrist alive? I often wonder about that. If so, is he a child, college age, an adult, or a senior? When he comes to power, I picture him as a JFK type: younger than most politicians, very charismatic, direct, and presenting a persona everyone wants to be around. I can already hear the … Continue reading Is The Antichrist Alive?

Your Cup
When I think of the symbolic Biblical definition of "cup," I think of the phrases "Your lot in life" or "The hand you are delt." But these do not quite fit the bill. Those two phrases address a situation that spans a person's entire life. Yet, sometimes our "cup" can be a temporary situation. Our … Continue reading Your Cup

Warnings From Jeremiah
As I read Jeremiah, I cannot help but see the parallels between the United States and Israel of old. Do not get me wrong; Israel is God's nation. God gives promises to Israel that belong to no other country, but there are striking similarities in spiritual history. God makes it clear that Jeremiah is a … Continue reading Warnings From Jeremiah
God’s Armor
In Ephesians 6:10-19 the Apostle Paul gives Christians a list of battle armor for the spiritual war we face. There is a tendency among Christians to departmentalize problems into the groups of, physical and spiritual. They miss a significant point Paul stresses: everything is spiritual. Ephesians 6:12, "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, … Continue reading God’s Armor
