Read the Word

A woman managed to force a violent intruder out of her home by reading Bible verses to him – even though he had already cut her throat.
Lindsay Wood, a devout Christian, fought her attacker with faith rather than force, and eventually he left her house after apologizing repeatedly. Continue reading →

Intimacy – Part 5 (become a protector not an exploiter)

I know the subject is of the past 4 days is not popular. It is the opposite message that you get from most media, including TV and movies.
But most media, TV, and movies don’t speak for God; the Bible does!
Earlier in the week I received this private message and thought I would share it with the writer’s permission. Continue reading →

Intimacy – Part 4 (willful sin)

Is physical intimacy outside of marriage a sin?
I believe it is; it’s called fornication.
When at least one is married it becomes adultery and it is still sin.
Telling a lie, blasphemy, lust, drunkenness, and many other common every day acts are also sin.
So can someone, which calls themselves a Christian, willfully sin over and over and receive forgiveness? Continue reading →

Intimacy – Part 3 (Free to WHAT??)

There are some that say, “I am free [in Christ] to do anything!”

The verse posted was Gen 2:24 – Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. Continue reading →

I Call Myself A Christian!

What is a Christian?
Some believe it’s a wedge to use against believers!
For example, I won’t hand church money over to a family for their electric bill. This is because both parents have cell phones on their sides, both have an automobile, and their home is equipped with Dish Network and Hughesnet. Continue reading →

God Loves Brokeness

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, a broken and a contrite heart — these, O God, You will not despise. Ps 51:17
I remember my grandpa telling me about breaking his arm when he was a young man.
It began to mend but not in the right way and would have caused him problems for the rest of his life. Continue reading →

YOU are the LAND!

I want to cover one other thing in my conversation with Bob.
He went on to say that he didn’t come to know the Lord as his Savior until he was 27 years old when a Church of Christ minister began to speak with him about it. Continue reading →
