Don't Fake It

From My Perspective - - -

Reality and Integrity are two worthy aspirations. Most people are weary of the façade approach to life and the inability to be straightforward in responses. If one asks a politician a “Yes” or “No” type question, it seldom is the response. There is usually several sentences shared and the point of the question is obscured by intentional vague rhetoric.

It is interesting to note in an editorial comment by Peggy Noonan in the Wall Street Journal… Continue

Living a continuously renewed life

A pastor from Colorado Springs gave a sermon on the concept of the Holy Spirit as the believer's spouse. He posed these (not very novel, but seldom-considered) questions: How close and enjoyable of a marriage would you expect to have if you rarely spent time with your spouse? How long would you expect the marriage to last if all the time you did spend went towards planning the party and none of it went to preparing for the life together? Or if you never did anything to keep your activities new… Continue

The Brick

Another email I received....

THE BRICK

A young and successful executive was traveling down a neighborhood street, going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar. He was watching for kids darting out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something. As his car passed, no children appeared . Instead, a brick smashed into the Jag's side door! He slammed on the brakes and backed the Jag back to the spot where the brick had been thrown. The angry driver then… Continue

New Beginnings

New Beginnings

From My Perspective - - -

Words such as Failure and Disqualified have a heart-piercing affect upon one. The other side to this is the thought – Is All Failure and Disqualification Final? Is there any possibility of one having hope of being reinstated and/or having a second chance? Businesses on occasion file for Bankruptcy and seek for time to Reorganize. Many companies have come out of Bankruptcy and were viable once again. Can a person who tried and failed… Continue

ARE YOU DESPERATE FOR GOD? What Issues are Keeping me from Knowing/Serving my God?

A man went to a Catholic priest and told him he wanted to get serious about his relationship with God. He was surprised when the priest invited him to meet at the local swimming pool. When asked if he was really serious about longing to grow in his relationship with God, the man said 'yes', and the priest plunged the man under the water and held him down. Just when he came up desperately gasping for air he pushed him under again. Finally, when this had happened several times, the man still… Continue

So I suggested she must read Isaiah for that will… Continue

Back to the original Church

When the world heard yet nothing of Billy Graham, Oral Roberts, Tommy Os¬borne and other vangelists, thousands of people experienced their conversion and healing by the ministry of William Branham (1909-1965).

He preached the pure biblical basic doctrines about Godhead, baptism, LORD`s supper etc.without compromise as the apostles did it at the beginning and as they are left to us in the Bible.

God confirmed his commission by extraordinary… Continue

Everlasting Love

Before anything 'was', there was God"s Love.

He spoke & His WORDS hung the stars up above.

He created the world & made it perfectly for~

A people He would cherish, who would love & adore Him.

God"s desire was for fellowship, but was thwarted by man's sin.

Mankind lost the divine 'spark' of REAL love, within.

So, DIVINE LOVE came down, in the form of man's flesh,

To bear your penalty & mine, so we could start fresh!

Christ made a way on the… Continue
