Escapism vs. Enduring Persecution for Faithfulness
Doing the Master’s Will  Ephesians 5:15–16 ESV Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. Matthew 24:45–46 ESV “Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his master has set over his household, to give them their food at the proper time? Blessed is that servant whom his master will find so doing when he…

Movie Review: Spaceman
Spaceman is a Netflix Movie staring Adam Sandler.  It should have been called Sandman for its ability to put all but the most dedicated viewer to sleep.     Did you watch the ABC TV show called Lost?  I watched the first episode and thought, “well, I’ll watch the last episode and find out the mystery.”  Six seasons later, the finale proved what I expected: the writers were lost and had no idea…

Trusting God In The Shaking, A Conflict Of Powers: Exodus 8 & Genesis 26
We are in a battle against Spiritual Wickedness using worldly powers: Government, Financial Systems, Politics, Communications, Religion. God is judging the world’s systems but has set apart a place of refuge for the people of God.
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Ephesians 6:12–13 Indeed, all who desire to live a godly…

Jesus is Our Sabbath
Thesis: Jesus is our Sabbath... a response to those who insist that only the Sabbath day is only legitimate day for worship. The Ten Commandments in relationship the Sabbath and the New Covenant in relationship to the Covenant of Noah for the Nations.
Reprint from Scholars Corner Jesus is our Sabbath, our Day of Rest.  He is the fulfillment of the Law. For he said, “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.” Matthew 5:17 (ESV)  Therefore it says: “It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God—that is, our righteousness,…

The Left Has No Guardrails
The Left has no way to distinguish true or error, and no extreme view is out of bounds because they cannot judge between right and wrong.
Guardrails on a road serve the purpose of protecting you in dangerous places so that you don’t drive into a ditch or off a cliff. Guardrails are a safety mechanism to keep you on the road. If there is no centerline or white sideline, driving in the dark can be treacherous, and if there is no guardrail, it is easy to drive off the road into a ditch. The issue the Left is facing is that it refuses…

Linkedin Is Turning into a Spam Facilitator
Today I received 4 identical messages from different senders saying that their company was expanding into the USA, etc. I reported these messages to Linkedin, and apparently none of them violate their spam terms. The fact that all the messages are identical and all from different users indicates to me that some kind of spam or AI service is being used. I get the same message every day or two. Yet…

It Isn't Hate Speech If It Is True
It isn’t hate speech if it is true. Apparently, according to YouTube and the slavish sycophants on the left, anything that dares to question transgender ideology is now classified as hate speech and can get you banned.  Facts are facts, and feelings are feelings, but feelings are not facts.  How a person feels about themselves, or others, or reality itself, does not make it true. It is a…

Introduction to Deliverance
Last week’s message was on forgiveness:  Some may struggled and feel like you can’t forgive:  Forgiveness is an act of the will not of the emotions. In fact, your emotions won’t get healed until you forgive.  Gary will be preaching about demons. I’m going to do a quick introduction into deliverance ministry.  The Body of Christ (that means you) has authority to deliver people from demonic…

Submission, Authority, and Power
Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to John, to be baptized by him. John would have prevented him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?”  But Jesus answered him, “Let it be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he consented.  And when Jesus was baptized, immediately he went up from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened…
