There are so many who go through life without the slightest idea of why they’re here. Their best clue is to adopt some sort of higher ritual. At the height of their glory they are no more godly than a mockingbird is human. The only reason for being here, living this life until death, is […]
The world is in trouble. Everything that can be wrong is wrong. Why bother to itemize the list. Everyone is a critic. Everyone seems to know what everyone else should do. And, by golly, they’re not afraid to speak. What’s missing in all this wicked chaos? Why, the ANSWER is conspicuously missing. Christ is the […]
The world is a darkened place filled with darkened souls. The sounds of their movement are only a rustling of desire. Only by the manifestation of their desires are they perceived by one another. (The world sincerely hates sneaky people. They demand accountability by virtue of noise.) I see the people of Christ as if […]
I am in New Jersey. The godlessness here is astounding. Yesterday I saw a truck hauling a gold casket. Rebellion against God to the very last. But righteousness will wake him up to present himself as he is sealed. A Sobering thought. America is like a bowl. The eastern cities, full of the will of […]
“Idlers may indulge a fond conceit of their abilities, because they are untried; but the earnest worker soon learns his own weakness. If you seek humility, try hard work; if you would know your nothingness, attempt some great thing for Jesus.” (Charles Spurgeon)
For now we live under the specter of death. Fear controls our every thought and action. But that will not always be so. To be clear, God did not create death.

Zeal… From it comes willingness to learn. Complacent curiosity cannot produce one spark such as that raging fire of zeal. Zeal sets the brand. It causes an indelible mark on the soul. A wisp of smoke rises up, and the man will never be the same. Complacency can cause religion; the result of a casual […]
This is a good word. It is a strong word. It is a necessary word. It is a word that will endure regardless how we receive it. “No sooner is there a good thing in the world, than a division is necessary. Light and darkness have no communion; God has divided them, let us not […]
Value. Such an underestimated foe. Such an underestimated friend. Value is perceived from where we are. But memory and hope are unique perspectives of their own. They are shadows and sunshine to an otherwise grey and obscure life. If we are only people of the present then we are pitiful indeed. And if as a […]
A curious observation: The Romans were fixated on death. It was their form of authority, entertainment, and motivation to do what is right. Prosperity meant mingling of blood and money. For the most part, today’s society is fixated on peace and longevity. It has to be said that they worship these. The majority of people […]
