I Don’t Remember the Score

Chalk up another point for the Bible in its continuing defeat of the skeptics of its content.  It turns out that archaeologists have found proof of Joseph in Egypt and confirmation of the Pharoah’s dreams as well.  This is a pretty fun read actually and yet another in a long line of “see I told [...]

The Day of Atonement – Yom Kippur

This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. (1 John 4:10)
This verse is probably my oldest son’s favorite verse in Scripture.  He memorized it years ago in an AWANA program and has never forgotten it.  Yesterday was a day [...]

Headed to Jail

Update: Sorry that I haven’t posted anything else lately.  I have been cautiously optimistic that some folks would read the post before I moved on to other stuff and I have been spending too much of my currently limited online time in discussions at another blog or two.  Thus I have had no time for [...]

Tonight we are participating in our second annual observance of the Feast of Trumpets wave to celebrate the reign of the King of Kings and Lord of Lords and to look for His return.  It was a lot of fun last year and I expect we will have a lot of fun this year.  In [...]

Over Easy Yokes

I know the title is a terrible sort of pun, but sometimes I can’t help myself.  I was listening to the audio from El Shaddai ministries tonight from their Sabbath service this past Saturday and I heard something that absolutely hit home with me.  It has to do with Jesus statement about taking His yoke [...]

What Translation of the Bible does Joel Osteen Use?

Editor’s note: I started this post almost a year ago and shelved it, but after having discussions this week with some other believers about the integrity of God’s Word and then seeing a video clip that reminded me of this post; I decided to come back and finish it.
Back about a year or so ago, [...]
