Wow, I woke up on Saturday morning with a loud crack of thunder! When I checked the time, it was 6:13. With that realization, I was sure this was God telling me all would be well and to quit worrying—let me explain. Firstly, I know that when Moses, the Teacher of Israel, spoke to God,Continue reading “Significance of 6:13 in Biblical Passages and Meaningful Reflections”

Mutual Submission or Me First?
Submission to the head of the house in a dysfunctional relationship is where many people found themselves in the past. The Father was the Head of the House and the Mother and Children were in his hands. He had the authority and sadly, in far too many families his word ended all discussion. This dysfunctionalContinue reading “Mutual Submission or Me First?”
I Was Blind and Now I See!
In this blog post entitled “I Was Blind and Now I see”, I refer to some of the Testimony of Faith I self published as The Ecumenical Affair. My self published work is a true story that holds up a mirror or a spiritual window that reflects the light of the Gospel. As it happenedContinue reading “I Was Blind and Now I See!”
Authority is Fundamental
I agree with ThePreachersWord when the Reverend Ken Weliever says [the triune] God’s opinion is the only one that counts. Here’s why. The LGBTQIA2S+ demographic is re-interpreting Scripture Passages they claim are “clobber” passages to change people’s opinions about “who can sleep with who” and when and how. This demographic says the Heterosexual demographic hasContinue reading “Authority is Fundamental”
“Honour your father and mother” (which is the first commandment with a promise)
In a letter to the ancient Ephesians, St. Paul wrote Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. “Honor your father and mother” (which is the first commandment with a promise),“that it may go well with you and that you may have a long life on the earth.” In John’s Gospel, two teachersContinue reading ““Honour your father and mother” (which is the first commandment with a promise)”
Cultural Values are challenging Christian Values
Church Language is difficult to understand in a culture that prides itself on progressive social values. Patriarchal language and culture that is expressed with Paul’s letters are falling on deaf ears and “houses [of worship] are left unoccupied and the land is desolate and ravaged” (Isaiah 6:11). For example Paul says. “…a man will leaveContinue reading “Cultural Values are challenging Christian Values”
The Faith of our Father
In today’s world, Fathers are often ridiculed and seen as oppressors who keep women from flying like Eagles. And yet, the words of Isaiah who we can no longer see in the flesh, live on. They speak to us. As Paul writes in Hebrews 11:4 and lifted up by Ken Weliever in his blog postContinue reading “The Faith of our Father”
Servant Leadership
Who then is Apollos? And who is Paul? Servants through whom you believed, even as the Lord has given to each. I planted the seed and Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. Paul and Apollos said yes to God’s plan to plant and water an everlasting kingdom. Paul says “we are just servantsContinue reading “Servant Leadership”
The King of Kings
For certain. God is powerful and Big when people of faith put their trust in God’s power. So why is it that people look to the powerful and the famous for evidence of God’s might? Arnold Palmer and the King of Saudi Arabia have been blessed with wealth and power. But what about the poorContinue reading “The King of Kings”
Are You Shaken?
The Name of Jesus matters and the Name of Jesus filled and fills believers with Jesus the Holy Spirit. Way back in Jeremiah’s day, God called Jeremiah saying: See, I have appointed you today over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and plant.” And the word ofContinue reading “Are You Shaken?”
