Distractions!

Let’s think back to a time when there was no television, no iPhones, no radio, no satellite communications, no video games, no computers, no cars or trucks, no electricity, and no steam or internal combustion engines.
Look around you and think of all the things you would now do without. Continue reading →

Don’t be a ship tossed on the sea!

Facebook has afforded us a glimpse into each others lives and a proof of a Biblical perspective.
If you’re like me, you have certain friends that will be happy one day and miserable the next; they’ll be in the best relationship and the love of their life, the next moment they are single.
You see them praising God today, cursing men tomorrow; Continue reading →

Anti-Christ is here! Take a Stand and be Pro-God!

Dear children, the last hour is here. You have heard that the Antichrist is coming, and already many such antichrists have appeared. From this we know that the last hour has come. 1 John 2:18
If you want a good clear understanding of media bias and out of context conjecture, then look no further than the Kirk Cameron interview with Piers Morgan. Continue reading →

The Immoral Woman

For the lips of an immoral woman drip honey and her mouth is smoother than oil;
But in the end she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword.
Her feet go down to death, her steps lay hold of hell.
Lest you ponder her path of life — Her ways are unstable; you do not know them. Prov 5:3-6
I read this and it stuck in my mind. Continue reading →

Trash the karma!

Now perhaps there are some Christians that believe in some lite-version of karma; maybe we’ll call it karmalite.
Remember that karma is the belief that if you do something evil, then you will get evil in return; and if you do good, you’ll get good in return.
So what good can anyone do? Continue reading →

Christ, not Karma!

It is a troubling trend on Facebook.
I see Christians saying things about Karma.
Let me be perfectly clear on this subject – no Christian has any business believing in, dabbling with, or mentioning Karma.
The theory of Karma is a fundamental doctrine in Buddhism, not Christianity. Continue reading →

The Victorious Crowd

When Texas high school playoffs begin, the crowd also begins to increase.
Moms, dads, brothers, sisters, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and even neighbors will drive several hours to watch the team play.
Anyone that knows anyone on the team will show up for the game. Continue reading →

Marked!

They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads. Rev 22:4
Remember the story The Scarlet Letter about a Puritan woman that committed adultery and was forced to wear a large “A” on her clothing as a sign to others of what she had done. Continue reading →

What’d He call me?

I have been called many names in my life. With a name like Swanson you’re going to get called TV dinner, freezer man, the Schwann-man, and Swanee River.
With a name like Timothy you’ll get called Tim-bo, Timbuktu, Tim-buck-tooth, Timmy, Tim-Tim, and my favorite given to me by my cousin, Timpson.
And when I was young my parents loved to throw a few new names in the mix like Otis Timothy Michael O’Shea Gonzalez Pierre Swanson. (That one made me genealogically challenged when I was a kid) Continue reading →

It cost…nothing!

A loaf of wheat bread or three loaves of barley will cost a day’s pay. Rev 6:6
I don’t like filling up the tank these days! It is getting more and more costly as the price of gas has risen everyday for the past 15 days. I know you know how it feels. Continue reading →
