The true God, who existed for an eternity before making anything – including angels – existed alone, completely content, complete, self-contained, dependant upon nothing. If you are calling upon another god other than the Triune God (of the Scriptures), you are an (unwilling, perhaps) idolater – indeed, calling upon a false god. You may be […]

What Kind Are They? What kind of a people would put up with the slaughter of babies for decades? The American People! No. Got no grounds for national pride. No way but the humble way. Lay yourselves before God and cry out for mercy! Then get up and do the right thing. Shut those damned […]

“Holding every tear . . .”? Okay, But . . . Yes, He is a mighty, loving God Who can “hold every tear we cry,” As the popular Christian ditty has it, In His sweet, ever-loving hands. But He is quit a bit more than that. He is the holy, triune, eternal GOD, Who, self-contained, […]

Yes, those angels have been around a long time. Michael could tell much of what it was like way back in the day when that band of heaven-dwellers were up there hanging out for years (or whatever they called the measurement of time back then). They must have had some entertainment with the Lord when […]

No, Baby, I’m not givin’ you excuses! I’m truly sufferin’ from presbycusis! That memory fails me time an’ again; Can’t remember my chores and then I get on to doin’ somethin’ else And before you know it I forgot Again what I was supposed to do! Now, don’t tell me you’re through! I’ll be good. […]

Died and went to hell, waitin’ for the “rapture.”Thought he’d wait and see that evidence And then put his faith square on the Lord. (Didn’t want to waste time with Christians and get bored.) Well, ’twas a shame it turned out such a way, That in pain he’s gonna spend many-a day And many-a night […]

It is a virtue which is distorted from its Biblical context. It is foisted upon Christians as a primary virtue leading them to behave ineffectively and blithely in places where they ought to be bold and intransigent. Humility is the essence, indeed, of the incarnation of deity into humanity! God became man for the purpose […]

For an eternity! Before anything was made! The Triune God existed:Independent, self-sufficient, self-contained.Content, He needed nothing – angels, people, matter.Yes, this God, happy, yes, and in need of nothing,Was content to entertain Himself by making things out of nothing.He got around to creating angels sometime way backIn heavenly history, and it wasn’t out of a […]

For an eternity – before anything was made, The Triune God existed, independent, Self-sufficient, self-contained, and content. He needed nothing – angels, people, matter. He – this God – was in Himself, communal. Sometime after making the angels, this God (Father, Son and Spirit, don’t ya know!)Made people in His image, giving them free will. […]

(The First Reflection)0755 on 26 Feb., 2023 Wrestling competition was coming up soon –Which I enjoy better than my classical tunes.Gonna leave my radio behindAnd watch Wilmington kick some behind!But one of my stars in not there!He’ll be sittin’ in the stands somewhere;“Kid got kicked off the team for a vape!”“Oh no!

“Kid got kicked off the team for vaping!” “What?!? Whom did he rape?” “I said he was VAPING!” “Vaping!? What’s that?” “You know, suckin’ in some air! Through a pipe-like thing; It’s kinda like smokin’.” “Nah, who would do such a thing!?” “Well, a fellow might get sick, ya know!” “I mean who would kick […]

So-called “clinics” Where the heathen Gather with other cynics Who deny the image of God In every human being. (As we know from God’s word Taking us beyond the seeing, Each one from conception Is a soul made for eternity.) Let these places be damned That with death are crammed, As they admit those with […]

(Inspired by Job 38) From time to time evil creeps in Upon a people in the din of sin. “They darken counsel By words without knowledge;” Minds blinded by Lawless freedom, But open to any fool to lead them. O fools! Do you need a plague? Some blood, frogs, gnats, and flies? It’s what you […]

It’s happy Baptism Day to Petra An excellent girl etcetera A good witness by a daughter Who’s brought others to the water And delivered them from strife Bringing them that life Which comes from above. Got that kindness and love That warms the heart And helps others depart From the ways of the fool And […]

Kicked off the wrestling team for “vaping”? Yeah, not raping . . . V-A-P-I-N-G! Pretty dog-gone harsh and down-right cruel to us spectators. Why should we fans be punished for such a simple “offense”? Not to mention screwing over a kid’s wrestling scholarship opportunities. Any discipline for students who blaspheme or disrespect teachers in class? […]

So says some colorfully zealous scribbling on the fence of a residence on a well-traveled street which I pass as I stroll around my hometown streets in Wilmington. Hmm. Needs some clarification! (The Nazis called for peace among the Germans after they seized power. Context is important . . . Just sayin’ . . . […]

O that month of februation, Pagan sacrifice to appease Those demons demanding lives Offering nothing but words in return. The fear of death grips soul and mind And drives men to work and grind But that was the way of the past. And today we are free from worry Anxiety and fear we did bury […]
