What Are You Building On?

What's Your Pleasure?

I'm Going to be a Great-Grandfather!

Well, most of you know that I have been a grandpa for the past 25 years. My oldest grandson has recently informed me that in about 7 months or so, Lord willing, I am going to be a great-grandfather.

 What's the deal? Am I old enough to be a great-grandfather? Yikes!

Idols of Head and Hand

Nicholas of Cusa said, "The intellect knoweth that it is ignorant of Thee, because it knoweth Thou canst not be known, unless the unknowable could be known and the invisible beheld, and the inaccessible attained." 

With all that the Scripture does reveal about God and of all that we can discern concerning His nature and character, God is yet fully incomprehensible by finite beings. Otherwise, we are guilty as A. W. Tozer once warned:

 "If we insist upon trying to imagine Him, we end with an idol, made not with hands but with thoughts; and an idol of the mind is as offensive to God as an idol of the hand."

The Theft of Conviction and Courage

Fame and Fortune is a thief of 

conviction and courage.So few can

 resist the theft of either one.

To California...

John MacArthur challenges Leftist Tyrants; State promises crackdown

Conservative Pastor John MacArthur puts the People’s Republic of California on notice: Christ is head of the church and not Caesar.

Johnson says, ‘State & Local leaders plan to cut power to the church’

Compare Leftist love for riots, casinos and Black Lives Matter to how they persecute Christ’s Church.

In response to the promise to engage the membership of the Grace Community Church of Sun Valley, CA, by the godless local and state leaders of California by shutting off the electricity and water to their building, let me say this:

To California and all godless leaders, let me share with you a little secret, God's people were gathering in submission to God's command long before there ever was in-door power or water. You will not win this battle. You are pitting yourself against the Head of the Church who bought that right with His own blood through a most bloody, painful, and wretched sacrificial death. Surrender to the Christ of the Church you are about to engage, repent of your transgressions and sins, seek the Christ of the Church before it is too late and you are cast into outer darkness where there is weeping and wailing and the gnashing of teeth.

What is Your Expectation?

How heartbreaking Proverbs 10:28 is, and yet how exhilirating it is at the same time. What a wonderful promise and assurance it is to know that the final expectation of the children of God will be realized and will result in absolute joy. 

But, however, so tragic that the hope of the wicked, those who do not know God, will in the end die, perish, or be destroyed. What they hope for, joy, reward, their idea of "blessing" will not be realized. 

How tragic to hope for peace, joy, satisfaction, or blessing all of your life and all the while that hope will never be realized. The wicked can hope in themselves, their philosophies, their possessions, and/or their ideals, yet they will not receive what they desire.
