Eternal God

Take action

I try to walk every day.  As the weather heats up, I find it harder to get out and walk.    As we get closer to Christ’s return, things are going to be heating up as well.   The first thing we need to do is continue moving forward in...

God’s glory

What is God’s Glory?  What did Stephen and Moses see?   The word glory in Greek is Doxa and means Splendour, brightness, magnificence, excellence, preeminence, dignity, grace, goodness and majesty.   Creation expresses God’s glory (Psalm 19:1);  Jesus expresses God’s glory (Hebrews 1:3).

Don’t give up

I have a Dachshund who will keep nudging me until he gets my attention.  As I was studying God’s word this morning, the nudging became annoying, and I stopped and said, ” What do you want?  At that moment, I had the realization that this is what we should be...

Waging war

As a Christian, the enemy will come against us, we need to be prepared.  It is not enough to just have faith.  You need a good conscience, too.  Paul told Timothy, “wage the good warfare,  having faith and a good conscience, which some having rejected, concerning the faith have suffered...
