Fundamentalist Pharisees
Mark 8:15 “Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees.”
As I read the Gospel records of the life and ministry of our Lord Jesus Christ, I am often struck by the way our Lord responded to the questions and teachings of the Pharisees. I find them one of the most striking groups in the [...]
It is TIME!
There is not much in the village of Epworth. There are plenty of old buildings. There are quaint little shops for those who like such things. There is a nice little tea room where you can get a light lunch that will not be forgotten. But most people remember this little English village for more [...]
When The Fire Dies (Part 1)
I recently visited a sister church and was saddened by what I sensed there. A church that had once been hot for God seemed to have cooled a little. The people seemed tired and worn, and the vibrancy that once characterized that church seemed lacking. As I pondered this, the Lord brought to mind the [...]
The Gap is Widening
Ezekiel 13:5 Ye have not gone up into the gaps, neither made up the hedge for the house of Israel to stand in the battle in the day of the LORD.
Ezekiel 22:30 And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the [...]

“And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.” Romans [...]

Recently one morning the young 4 year old girl that my wife watches [...]
Biblical Manhood: A treatise on true masculinity
Man: an adult male person, as distinguished from a boy or a woman. (Online Dictionary)
What do you think of when you think of a man? Does John Wayne come to mind, staring frosty eyed at a villain? Perhaps Arnold Schwarzenegger or Sylvester Stallone playing Rambo typifies a man for you. But while these popular movie [...]
Rotten Fruit from Dead Roots
This story about a 13 year old boy in the UK who is the alleged father of a child from a 15 year old girl is making news. While I originally saw it in the National Post, there have been many other outlets that have noted it also. No “Christian Commentators” have yet mentioned this, [...]
Choosing “Unborn” Geese over Unborn Babies?
By Nathan D. Jones, Rankin Inlet, Nunavut, Canada
While doing research on another topic, I followed some news links and stumbled across a very disturbing article in The Hour Online, a regional online news outlet in Fairfield County, Connecticut. Apparently in the state of Connecticut there is a growing problem with an iconic symbol of our [...]
Looking for the next wave,
In the article Popcorn in the Pews, there is a quote that sums up contemporary Christianity’s whorish need to be relevant.
“Everybody is looking for the next wave. We went from cathedrals to churches with pews and vaulted ceilings to the Willow Creek model — the theater seats and big screens and big production — and [...]
