Enduring
September 3, 2009
For comfort we turn often to I Cor.10: 13. “God is faithful, he will not let you be tested beyond your ability; but if you are tested, He will enable you to endure what you are going through.” Of course…

Scheduling God
August 28, 2009
In a resent testimonial one comment pricked my ears. This person, no doubt with good intentions, said that the church fitted into their schedule and that was one of the reasons they joined. It is commendable for a church to…
Give and Take Away?
August 22, 2009
Quite often we sing in church, “He gives and takes away.” It is not the way I can picture God. He is the giver of all good gifts, but He is not the one that takes away. Who then is…
Does Evil Prosper?
August 19, 2009
Evil (Satan) has no source of income. It steals from God who is good (Mk.10: 18). God has set the sun to shine over the good and the bad (Mt.5: 45). Only man is capable of discerning between good and…

Reciprocation!
August 7, 2009
It is the idea that when I scratch your back, I expect that you return the favor. Jesus too counseled that we do unto others what we expect them to do for us (Mt.7: 12). He also encouraged his followers…
Worship?
August 3, 2009
Much has been said and written about worship; yet, I am left groping with what it all means? It has become a mysterious question for me. And here is the reason. Worship has become a substitute for what I ought…
Don’t Touch!
July 30, 2009
Young people should wear signs, “Look, but do not touch!” The Creator must have had a sense of humor. He made a beautiful and desirable creature Adam called women and then commands, “Hands off!” You can look, peak but not…
Easy Road?
July 27, 2009
Most of us like to travel light, with the wind in our back and solid ground beneath our feet. We want a life with a wide gate and a broad road (Mt.7: 13-14). There are travelers that are fortunate enough…
