So here’s my question. For a Christian, should the ends justify the means with Donald Trump? Notice, I wrote should, not do. Truth be told, for many Christians, Trump’s ends do justify the means. But should they?
Never will I leave you or forsake you. I suppose pretty much every Christians knows that line. But do we believe God will never forsake us and do we live like we believe it?
What is the source of knowledge? And I mean of true knowledge? Not just information. Not someone’s version of “their truth” or what someone else “knows”. No, I mean real, honest-to-goodness true knowledge. Remember when that used to exist?
The Great Commission apparently isn’t so great anymore. I feel like that must make God cry. And yet, it doesn’t seem to bother many Christians these days. And why should it? Apparently, they don’t even know what it is. And way too many Christians have never even heard of the Great Commission! So sad.
I can't believe it's been three plus months since the last time I wrote anything here. It's not like I haven't done anything. Or don't have anything to write. For those Garth Brooks fans out there, I was just listening to Much too young. That probably describes why there's been nothing here. lately.
What we see of God in government, even if we see nothing, is probably a reflection of what we want to see. We often do not see the reality of what God does, or doesn’t do, via the government.
Have you ever tried to find God in "religion"? It's not necessarily easy. Not that God isn't there. He is. But there's a lot of "stuff" that comes with that emotionally charged and often misused word - "religion".
Life goes on. I didn't realize how long since I put anything here. Not that I haven't been doing anything - just haven't gotten around to adding it here. But then, I guess having too much to do is better than not having enough. Anyway, I finally decided it's time to do something I really didn't want to have to do.
If Christians are a new creation, why isn’t everything perfect? I ask the question because of today’s Verse of the Day, from YouVersion. It says we are a new creation. The old is gone. The new is here. It sounds so exciting! So how come things aren’t perfect? For that matter, how come little or nothing seems to have changed? Is the verse wrong?
For I have put my trust in You. That would not have been possible if it weren't for things I considered storms. Events that happened that I didn't like at the time. And yet, also events that enabled me to do things that wouldn't have been possible without those storms.
God and me - this life and the next
