“But God raised Him from the dead on the third day and caused Him to be seen. He was not seen by all the people, but by witnesses God had already chosen – by us who ate and drank with Him after He rose from the dead.” Acts 10:40-41 Without a doubt, the most important event in the history of the world is the resurrection … Continue reading Shown Openly, But Not to All
There is a door of death that awaits us all. When this door opens, it does so very quickly and often without warning. It ushers us into eternity, then closes securely behind us, never allowing us re-entry into this world again. We are not alarmed when old people die. But, when others leave this world early, it causes us to think about things we may … Continue reading The Death Door
“They all joined together constantly in prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers.” Acts 1:14 Me and my brother hadn’t spoken for a while. At first, unanswered calls led to confusion. I was sure he was mad at me, but I wanted to talk. Over the months, other attempts were also met with silence. Anger and resentment … Continue reading Greatly Misunderstood
Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Ananias; and to him the Lord said in a vision, “Ananias.” And he said, “Here I am, Lord.” So the Lord said to him, “Arise and go to the street called Straight, and inquire at the house of Judas for one called Saul of Tarsus, for behold, he is praying. And in a vision he has seen a man named Ananias coming in and putting his hand … Continue reading
“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight” Isaiah 5:20-21 Man has had a fascination and curiosity of evil from the beginning. Adam did not know evil, but he … Continue reading Is He Keeping Something Good From Me?
I had a dream I was in heaven and it was a most dreadful day. God’s mercy had come to an end. He had changed His mind regarding the sins we had committed against Him. His anger had flared up and His patience had worn thin. He had reconsidered and decided that He should have punished us instead of pardoning us. After years in Heaven … Continue reading If Mercy came to an end
See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know Him. Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like Him, for we … Continue reading
He came to earth in an unusual way, a virgin you say? Come now, who would believe it? Even Joseph, her betrothed did not… Until an angel from heaven told him it was so. He came on a day like any other. No one took notice, though a mighty host filled the evening sky… declaring the Holy One of God was here; And only the … Continue reading The Day God Left His Throne
If I could get my kids to heaven, I would say ten prayers a day, And give an offering God would hear and see… If an entrance could be bought with up to all that I owned, I would gladly surrender all to the Keeper of the Gate. If it was my very life that were required of me, I would surely, without a second … Continue reading If I Could Get My Kids To Heaven
“You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:6-8 Continue reading
