"I love Jesus!" is a statement often uttered, but is it true? To answer that question, I reckon the first thing to do is to define love. What is love? The Bible gives us the definition of love in its most famous verse, John 3:16, "For God so loved the world, that he gave..." Love … Continue reading Our Love For God

Shake, Rattle, and Roll
Last Thursday, Indiana experienced an earthquake. I have lived in Indiana for almost forty years, and this is only the second earth shaking I have felt here. Decades ago, I lived in California for three years and experienced multiple quakes, including one measuring 6.1. The shakeup Thursday was only a 3.8, but the epicenter was … Continue reading Shake, Rattle, and Roll
Is Psalm 83 Near?
The Bible is full of prophecy, much of it, still unfulfilled. The most talked-about future events in the Bible are the rapture, the tribulation period, and the second coming of Christ. The signs of the second coming are also a hot topic of discussion. Yet, there is one prophecy that rarely gets noticed - the … Continue reading Is Psalm 83 Near?
Heart, Mind, And Soul.
Jesus had a way of having the last word. A good example is when the scribes and Pharisees brought to Jesus the woman "taken in adultery." After He said, "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her" (John 8:7), all the woman's accusers left. There was nothing more … Continue reading Heart, Mind, And Soul.
Disappointment, Depression And Deliverance
Whoever said, "Life is not a bed a roses" was one-hundred percent wrong. Life is exactly like a bed of roses. Sometimes, life is beautiful, soft, and full of fragrance. At other times, life is itchy stems and painful thorns. Like roses, we try only to allow people to see the beautiful petals above the … Continue reading Disappointment, Depression And Deliverance
Timeline Of The Mark
There may be an underlining thought out there that we are nearing the time when the Antichrist will cause everyone to receive a mark to buy or sell. I bring this up because I usually receive emails asking about something I have recently written. However, I have received multiple emails about this topic in the … Continue reading Timeline Of The Mark
There Is Nothing
Elijah, the great prophet of the Old Testament, is an unknown when he comes on the scene. The first time we read of him, he tells king Ahab that it will not rain unless he (Elijah) says so (1 Kings 17:1). The Bible does not speak of Ahab's reaction. I reckon that is because Ahab … Continue reading There Is Nothing
The Pre-Tribulation Rapture
We are just past the halfway point of 2020, and if nothing else happened this year, it would still go down as one of the strangest years in history. The best word to describe it, I believe, is "uncertainty." People are uncertain about their health, the economy, social reform, the nation, the world. Christians around … Continue reading The Pre-Tribulation Rapture
Equality Under The Law – God’s Law
Most people have a misconception about God's law. We know that no one is perfect, but after that fact, two general beliefs prevail. First, overall if we do the right and stay away from wrong as much as possible, we will have achieved God's favor. Second, there is a line, and if we cross it, … Continue reading Equality Under The Law – God’s Law
What Is Coming.
Since the start of the virus, this column has focused mostly on Biblical prophecy. I feel it prudent to take a step back and give readers an overview of what is coming according to the Bible. With the outbreak of COVID-19, specific political news from the Middle East, natural disasters around the globe, and civil … Continue reading What Is Coming.
