I only got in on the last round of a new game show called The American Bible Challenge; but I liked it.
Comedian Jeff Foxworthy is the host and mixes a bit of humor with honoring God with questions on Bible knowledge and prize money for a charity. Continue reading
Acts
Remorse vs Repentance
After yesterday’s Greater Sin topic, the question arises about the outcome of Judas Iscariot, the one that betrayed Jesus.
The comment was made that Judas repented. Continue reading
In the picture
I’ve been scanning and posting old photographs on Facebook.
One such photo is one of my dad, two of his sisters, and me.
There the four of us were; frozen in time.
Someone else may be living in the house; the walls may have been painted and maybe new appliances have been bought, Continue reading
What is your reason?
He came to church and sat on the back row.
Everyone shook his hand and introduced themselves.
He was a stranger; someone they had never seen before.

Those who depend on the law to make them right with God are under his curse, for the Scriptures say, “Cursed is everyone who does not observe and obey all the commands that are written in God’s Book of the Law.” Gal 3:10
The Apostle Paul was one of the greatest men when it came to upholding the Mosaic Law. Continue reading
No Burden of the Sabbath!
Is it a violation to not worship God on Sunday and not the Sabbath day?
It is written in Ex 20:8-11 – Remember to observe the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. You have six days each week for your ordinary work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath day of rest dedicated to the Lord your God. On that day no one in your household may do any work. Continue reading
Pesach, Passover, & Easter
Last time I said I was not a big fan of the word Easter.
The word “Easter” can only be found in the Bible in one place and one widely used translation; Acts 12:4 King James Version- And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.
