Become a Delivery Boy; Become a Delivery Girl

When asked by His disciples why He spoke to the people in parables, Jesus’ response, as translated by JB Phillips New Testament has impressed me of late. This is why I speak to them in parables; because they go through life with their eyes open, but they see nothing, and with their ears open, but understand nothing of …

Denying the Lord Who Bought Them

Imagine standing face to face before the Lord Jesus Christ and being told, I never knew you Matthew 7:23. To me, discovering that reality would be more devastating than the command following it, depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness. It is said, I never knew you means, “I never approved of you.” Either way, praise God, for He is not referring …

Clergymen are Scratching their Heads

The mother of a twelve year old girl sexually abused by a seventy-nine year old clergyman in January of this year has refused to accept his apology and request for forgiveness. She said his letter to the family, in which he asked for forgiveness, was “puerile and self-serving.” The Crown prosecutor told the Court the man displayed a lack of remorse …

There’s No Other Road to Happiness and Fulfillment

I was in the company of two unhappy, unfulfilled women recently, one in her late sixties and the other in her early twenties. The older woman hates the Jews, the younger one dishonors her mother. As a result, both women are giving witness to the truth declared in the Bible that they are under a curse. I will bless those who bless you and I …

That’s Why Jesus Christ Is Savior!

In reference to signs of the end times, the first sign Jesus told His disciples to look for was that of religious deception. Take heed that you be not deceived…….. Luke 21:8. Perhaps for the generations that were not able to hold a Bible in their hands, they can be excused for their ignorance of …

God Is Intolerant Of Your Tolerance

Lately I’ve been giving serious thought to the first two Commandments of God, And God spoke all these words, saying: I am the LORD your God……You shall have no other gods before Me……you shall not bow down to them nor serve them…. Exodus 20:1-5. Dwelling on those commandments causes me to give serious thought to those …

The Destructive Power of Uncertainty

A television presenter recently interviewed a couple whose family was experiencing severe trials and she said, “Our thoughts and prayers are with you.”  It was the second time that I’ve heard this presenter use those words, but I have also heard her on another occasion express uncertainty about the existence of God.  A man on the radio …

Always Closer to The Lie than to The Truth

A popular Roman Catholic priest here in Melbourne set up a mobile, drive-through confessional so as sinful drivers could “repent on-the-run.”  A numbered sin-selection list commonly known as, “The Seven Deadly Sins” was taped to the priest’s “Hopemobile”: lust, gluttony, greed, laziness, wrath, envy, pride.  Just as one does when ordering food from a fast-food outlet, a driver then pulled …
