Where there is no vision, the people cast off restraint; But he that keepeth the law, happy is he. Proverbs 29:18 American Standard Version I wear glasses. It is frustrating when they fog up in the cold. It is downright dangerous for me to drive without them. Not only do I risk myself, but I…
10Now I exhort you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all agree and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be made complete in the same mind and in the same judgment. 11For I have been informed concerning you, my brethren, by Chloe’s people, that there are…
The more of the Lord's work and Word I see, the more I realize how weak I am.
4Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5And there are varieties of ministries, and the same Lord. 6There are varieties of effects, but the same God who works all things in all persons. 7But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. 8For to one is…
Weighing heavily on my heart... Folk, the Lord is timeless and all knowing and all powerful. He is, at once, in every time at all time. St Augustine describes it so beautifully that His Word is still "alive" right now because the syllables are being spoke every second. Otherwise, the words of God…

"every Writing is God-breathed, and profitable for teaching, for conviction, for setting aright, for instruction that is in righteousness," 2Timothy 3:16 (YLT) Either God is all powerful or He just isn't. It cannot be both. Yet we Christians often live like He is all powerful in theory, but not in our lives. So we excuse…
Ephesians 6 NASV 10Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of His might. 11Put on the full armor of God, that you may be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the…
Ephesians 6:12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. We are at war. The Word says it; we can see it. We are not at war against…
