When the Risen Jesus Come Up Behind You

April 24, 2022

$2.16. That is what it will cost you for a ticket to enter the “Grotto of the Apocalypse.” The what? The “Grotto of the Apocalypse” is on the Greek island of Patmos. Patmos is where the apostle John had been exiled by the Roman government as punishment for preaching the good news of Jesus. Patmos is where John received the vision that is preserved for us as the last book of the Bible, the book of Revelation.

Resurrection Clarity

April 17, 2022

The men said to them, “Why are you looking for the living among the dead? 6He is not here, but has been raised! Remember how he told you while he was still in Galilee 7that the Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again?” 8Then they remembered his words.

“It is Finished!”

April 15, 2022

We want to linger just a moment over the second last thing Jesus said on the cross. John is the only one of the Gospel writers who records these words. It makes sense. John was an eye witness that day. Watching, waiting. He saw with his own eyes and heard with his own ears those words of Jesus, “It is finished!” But just what was finished?

Jesus’ Testament for You

April 14, 2022

The year: 1948. The place: Saskatchewan, Canada. A very unique example of a last will and testament. A man named Cecil George Harris was pinned beneath his tractor after an accident, and he managed to get out his pocket knife and carve a simple message into the fender of the tractor. The message read: “In case I die in this mess I leave all to the wife. Cecil Geo. Harris.”

The Coming King

April 10, 2022

Holy Week begins today. And one of the things we will notice as we read through the Gospel accounts of this week is the recurring theme of “king” and “kingdom.” In fact, you might say Holy Week paints a portrait of Jesus as King. For example, Jesus is painted as the JUDGING King in Matthew 25.

Unreasonable Compromise

Onward and Upward!

April 3, 2022

Saul was “the man.” He was born in Tarsus of Cilicia to a Gentile mother and a Jewish father. His father was even a member of the respected party of the Pharisees. His father was also from the small, but very proud, tribe of Benjamin. In obedience to the Law of Moses, little Saul was circumcised dutifully and meticulously on the eighth day of his life. Not only was young Saul born a “Jew,” but he was raised as a “Hebrew.” He was taught, and spoke, the Aramaic language fluently.

Join the Joyful Feast!

March 27, 2022

They had caught him. They had cornered him. They had found him entangled in what they thought was a scandal. There was Jesus, the famed prophet from Galilee, and He was fraternizing with sinners. He was associating with tax collectors.

The Semblance of Legality

March 23, 2022

In a World where Tyrants Kill and Towers Fall . . . Repent!

March 20, 2022

Toward the end of last calendar year, the Pew Research Center surveyed nearly 6500 Americans and asked them, “In your own words, why do you think terrible things happen to people through no apparent fault of their own?” Here is a sampling of some of the responses.
