Keep in mind, that was during the days of a very limited radio, telephone or a next day newspaper. In Luke 24 we learn how two men, going to a village seven miles away, (Emmaus) from Jerusalem, on that very day, were discussing the events that had taken place relating to the resurrection. How swiftlyContinue reading “NEWS-WORTHY”

GOD REMEMBERS!
My friend and I were speaking each to the other about this thing of “old age and its accompaniment”. We agreed on a number of “episodes” but we also agreed we could not remember some of the details of others for which we “purposefully” had placed in the cupboard of forgetfulness. Because of our differenceContinue reading “GOD REMEMBERS!”
HOPE!
I tell people all the time that I have HOPE! I entered the Dr’s office, and immediately I was reminded that I had to keep my “mask” in place. I get to the counter and they check out my information and discover that I do have an appointment, I am on time, and I canContinue reading “HOPE!”
PLENARY VERBAL INSPIRATION
Has it ever been your experience to hear your pastor make a statement on the subject of the Inspiration of the Scriptures? There are numerous theories out there concerning that subject. Some of you are probably “on target” as to the subject; however, there are many who are unaware that many individuals, including pastors, areContinue reading “PLENARY VERBAL INSPIRATION”
SPONGE CAKE
I have many dear friends in Bermuda, my place of birth a few years back. Among them have been Joel and Jane Madeiros. Their home has been our home whenever we return. Jane went “home” to be with the Lord, and I returned for her funeral. At the funeral I mentioned how Jane always preparedContinue reading “SPONGE CAKE”
KEYS, KEYS, KEYS
We cannot help but notice people who carry massive numbers of keys hanging from their belt. I sometimes think how amazing it is that they are not bent to one side with the weight. I know that often the one key I need is the one that I do not possess or it has beenContinue reading “KEYS, KEYS, KEYS”
IDOLATRY
Recently I had my ire aroused by what I consider statements on the fringe of Idolatry; and perhaps, actual idolatry. While helping a friend with a problem, a visitor who says he too is a Christian, arrived on the scene. We were introduced and my friend made it a point to share with the visitorContinue reading “IDOLATRY”
UNDER OBLIGATION
Those words “jumped out” of the 14th verse of Romans 1; at least that is how they appeared to me during my reading of that chapter of the Word of God. The Lord Jesus had said that the Holy Spirit would be sent, and that His disciples would experience a whole new relationship to GodContinue reading “UNDER OBLIGATION”
24-HOUR COVERAGE
It’s the way my brain works. I see something small, and it might well be something of insignificance, but it “latches on” and turns into pondering. Ultimately, it will relate itself to some thought from the Scriptures that behind it has multiplied thoughts from other portions of the Word of God, the Bible. I wasContinue reading “24-HOUR COVERAGE”
MONEY
All of a sudden we are made aware of a crisis, and we presume that the solution to the whole matter is MONEY! Manipulative processes are applied that appear to tentatively resolve the problem. The real problem is much deeper than it first appears, and somewhere down the road, the chickens will come home toContinue reading “MONEY”
