They Called for His Death
John 1:10-11 (KJV) He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
It is true that the crowd, even God’s own people, the Jewish people, called for the death of His Only Son, Jesus Christ. This call for His rejection and His death is an ancient example of “group think” in action. Just the week ...

Blaze Abroad
Mark 1:45 (KJV) But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.

Trusting In The Wrong Things
Psalm 20:7 (KJV) Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.

The Best We Have To Offer
Isaiah 64:6-7 (KJV) But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away. And there is none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee: for thou hast hid thy face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.
These verses recorded ...

2 Timothy 3:12 (KJV) Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
Living spiritually aligned with God allows a man to be a “yes” man with God. This position is an eternal alignment with God through the salvation of his soul.

Aren’t You Tired Of Fear Mongering?
2 Timothy 1:7 (KJV) For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
I do not know about you, but I am weary of fear peddling, liars, and political hucksters working in this world. These kinds of connivers want you to bow down in submission to their cunning plans, fluffed and stuffed with dishonesty and disdain and standing in opposition to God ...
