As I write this post, the government is still on the verge of a shutdown. Not because of the liberal left, but because of the power-hungry right (conservatives). The divided party still cannot get their act together. The main sticking point is the so-called. “border Crisis” propagated by a few extreme rightists—individuals who are only concerned about their desires. While I understand the need to be fiscally responsible as a nation, as a child of God I must live by... Read more
The big news this week has been the rush to increase the debt limit so America can pay the bills. Ironically many conservatives believe their solution is the only right answer. Yet, the party can’t even agree amongst themselves, much less save the country. The party has become so divided, that they fail to adhere to their own conservative ideologies; beliefs which are supposed to set them apart from both the world’s and liberals’ approaches. Christian values Fighting against all... Read more
This week the news reported more stories about politicians behaving badly, one a liberal and the other a conservative. As our world continues to deteriorate, there have been a lot of posts on social media about heaven. Everyone wants to go to heaven, but not everyone agrees on where it is or how to get there. But, in the next life, everyone wants to be with God. Below are three hashtags that saturated social media this week. Calvinism Rapture Tribulation... Read more
In a recent news special, a report showed the aftermath of the destruction from recent natural disasters. As the images of ruins covered the landscape, a comparison to hell was made. It’s ironic the world doesn’t acknowledge God or spiritual truth, yet understands the devastation of hell. Every disaster results in destruction, loss of life and the world is never the same. It’s no wonder many compare them to hell, below are a few common beliefs about hell. Unbearably hot... Read more
It seems like every day the world is getting crazier, although it has been fading for decades. I remember growing up in the 80s and early 90s and hearing about the scientific fears of how the earth will be destroyed. From a nuclear war destroying everything and civilization living in an apocalypse to climate change and the destruction of the Earth’s ozone scared everyone. Who can’t forget the recycling craze of the late 80s and early 90s? ... Read more
Once again, the news has focused on power-hungry conservatives and Christians who make bad choices that will only benefit themselves or their agenda. The current GOP is hell-bent on getting what it wants regardless of who it hurts. Although we live in a fallen world, we have a choice in how we live and what we pursue; there is no straddling the fence for conservatives. It is either one or the other. Good Evil This fight was remembered during the... Read more
For the past year, there has been lots of hype on social media about the last days, tribulation, and the antichrist. Some have been true and others false, even lost people understand this world is evil. They can see this world is cursed and perishing (Genesis 3:14-17, 1 John 2:17). Somehow, they know the signs of the end of the world (Matthew 24:3-13). Wars Global warming Greed Pride The evil spirit of the world (Yetzer Hara) is having its way... Read more
It seems like every other day there is a new big conspiracy theory. People can’t get enough of these trumped-up stories. Everyone has the inside scoop on the truth. The 2020 election was rigged Covid-19 isn’t real A new world order is coming The irony behind conspiracy theories is they claim to know the truth better than everyone else. But actually, most just reject the truth in search of what they want to hear. It sounds a lot like... Read more
Lately, there have been multiple accounts in the news about spouses trying to have their husbands killed. These women lied when they gave their wedding vows to love their spouses. They are more concerned about immediate happiness. Another ironic twist in the news is the fall of a social media superstar who was known for giving strict parenting advice. She and her business partner were arrested for aggravated child abuse. The truth is, these people tricked others... Read more
For the better part of a year, there has been a lot of controversy on social media over faith communities and what they believe. Conservatives have had their fair share of falls from grace. Baptist Church scandals Catholic Church coverups charismatic church discrepancies God’s people need to repent and remember they represent God who is above all. “Born again” followers aren’t supposed to walk in the way of the world; we are called to be earthy representatives of God above....
