… Then the Devil comes and takes the Word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved. (Luke 8:12) It was Charles Baudelaire who wrote the devil’s finest trick is to persuade you that he does not exist, and when we look at the state of the world today it’s clear he’s […]
It’s fair to say that over the last few months, especially since Israel and the US started bombing Iran, the world has become a more dangerous place. Iran’s closing of the Straits of Hormuz, the main corridor for oil, gas and petro-chemicals to Asia and the West is of great concern. The implications for world […]
I once overheard a conversation that went like this…. “The reason we have a trinity is God’s fault..!’“Why?” someone asked.“Because if He had come himself we wouldn’t be having this debate..!” As you can see it was getting a little tense and arguments about religion will sometimes do that. I imagine it was much the […]
Moses said: The LORD our God is one LORD. (Deuteronomy 6:4) David said: Salvation belongs unto the LORD. (Psalms 3:8) The LORD said to Isaiah: Is there a God besides me? I know not any. (Isaiah 44:8) The LORD said to Isaiah: I am the LORD and besides me there is no saviour. (Isaiah 43:11) […]

(2Cor 6:14) When I looked again at how the churches use this Scripture, it is mainly applied to marriage; most noticeable in the Catholic Church, which forbade marriage between Catholics and Protestants unless […]
Along with the numerous statements of great, indeed fundamental theological importance, the Holy Bible also contains a truism of great value: By their fruits you shall you know them. (Matt 7:20) Given during the Great Sermon, it is a standard we can use to discern, decode or measure beliefs and opinions to determine their worth, […]
But know this, that in the last days grievous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, haughty, railers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, implacable, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, no lovers of good, traitors, headstrong, puffed up, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God: (2Tim […]
It’s odd how often we fail to see what’s right in front of us. How many times have we turned the house upside down looking for the car keys to find them in our pocket? Or used a saying not knowing where it came from like ‘a little bird told me’ which is not Mr. […]
After the Great Command: the LORD our God is one Lord: (Mark 12:29) the next in importance is we love one another. They should be uppermost in our mind and engraved upon our heart. But sadly in today’s world, we see little acceptance of these instructions from God. A Military industrial complex (MIC) is sustained […]
And this I speak for your own profit, not that I may cast a snare on you, but for that which is right, and that you may attend on the Lord without distraction. (1 Cor 7:35) While Paul was addressing the unmarried and widowed at the time, we have another issue where this Scripture could […]
