The eighth chapter of Romans contains such important revelation that I chose to paraphrase it. It’s too long of a chapter to include it, but I would recommend having an open Bible next to my paraphrase. PARAPHRASE 8:1-8 – Those who have accepted Jesus will never face God’s wrath and judgment. The Spirit of God […]
Many years ago, I attended Basic Youth Conflicts. A phrase you’d often hear was, “Please Be Patient. God Is Not Finished With Me Yet.” He never stops working to change us to be more like Jesus. And He won’t be done until we see Him face-to-feet. “I am certain that God, who began the good […]
If you’ve ever ridden Trimet, you know the difference between fragrance and odor. Some passengers give off a pleasant perfume or cologne, while others assault our nostrils as though they haven’t bathed for weeks.

I started thinking about mercy when, in my daily reading in Exodus 25, I read about the Ark of the Covenant. The Ark in the Most Holy Place was a box made of wood overlayed with gold. Inside it was the law God gave to Moses. The lid of the Ark was made of solid […]
Some people think it is somehow disparaging of the cross of Christ to admit that Christ-followers still sin. In their desire to magnify the greatness of the Lord’s salvation, they give the impression that if a person receives Christ, their struggles with sin will come to an end. It’s true that the Holy Spirit changes […]
Science and Their Genetic Coding are like children playing in a sand box shouting, “Look, I have discovered how to make a sea shore! Come and play with me.” But, trust me, it is no child’s play. It is sinister and not being done “For the GOOD OF MANKIND”. The Big Pharma, CDC and WHO […]
