If there is one thing in the world that might destroy you, it is the pandemic germ common to mankind that took Adam and Eve out of the garden after it had forfeited Lucifer from his exalted angelic position over angels. It is the sin of pride and it got Haman hanged and Pharaoh drowned, andContinue reading “Watch Yourself!”

Your Body and You
David said, “I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made….” (Ps. 139:4). The more we learn about these bodies given to us for “tabernacles” on our earthly pilgrimage, the more we appreciate just how truly wonderful they are! Your heart is a perfect pump; the nervous system has never been equaled by anyContinue reading “Your Body and You”
The Power of 1
“By the grace of God, I am what I am,” the Apostle Paul, church planting evangelist par excellence, said of himself, humbly, in I Cor. 15:10 just after confessing that he was least of all the apostles and not worthy to be called an apostle; yet, he was what he was! And, so are you! YouContinue reading “The Power of 1”
See You Sunday!
A little girl whose family had just moved to a large city became lost. She went to the corner policeman who began quizzing her but without success, trying to determine where she lived. Finally, the child said, “If you will take me to church, Mister, I can find my way home.” Church attendance has been on theContinue reading “See You Sunday!”
All I Heard Was Go!
She and her husband have been serving on the mission field in the intermountain area of the United States for 31 of the 35 years they have been married. We will call her Diane as that is her name. She would have been, in her earliest years, the most unlikely candidate for a future missionary because ofContinue reading “All I Heard Was Go!”
Our Only Hope
A Puritan writer once wrote: “The Christian’s armor will rust except it be furbished and scoured with the oil of prayer.” Once again, our nation stands at a crossroad. The issue before us: a burgeoning, bustling land where freedom’s light shines as a bright beacon of hope, or on the other hand a bungling, blighting bureaucratic governmentContinue reading “Our Only Hope”

What’s Your One Wish?
On September 29, 1978, less than two months into his papacy, Pope John Paul I was found dead in his bed with the book Imitation of Christ, by Thomas A. Kempis, opened and his reading light still on, probably having died of a heart attack. Paul the Apostle wrote to some first century saints in PhilippiContinue reading “What’s Your One Wish?”
Strangers and Sojourners
A few days ago, “You and God” addressed the subject of riches and the dangers of trusting in them; the sheer vanity of doing so as expressed by the very wealthy King Solomon who suffered from what some have called “destination sickness,” defined as a person “arriving” only to discover he is “nowhere.” (H.B. London)Continue reading “Strangers and Sojourners”
