It seems that some of the best movies are knockoffs or inspired by documentaries of the same events, consider: - A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood vs Want You Be My Neighbor - Captain Phillips vs Pirates of Somalia - Sully vs Miracle Landing on the Hudson - Ford vs. Ferrari vs The 24 Hour [...]

I have been involved in a lot of church work my whole life, but I consider Yeshua to be everything and the hidden life in Him. I was part of the Jesus movement revival of the early 1970's and I have a heart for Israel.
Media Credibility
CBS, the producer of 60 Minutes, has a history of lies, distortion and fraud. The President's interview with Leslie Stahl is the latest example. Fortunately, for Trump, he had a full uncut version exposing the bias and evil intent, masked as ignorance, of the 60 Minutes producers. All one has to do is realize that [...]
Accepting the Word
Most religions have professional clergy that facilitate the requirements of the religion to the common people. In Judaism the priest offered the sacrifices that covered sins. The eastern religions have priests that serve a similar role. In some Christian sects a priest is necessary to absolve sins and administer sacraments. However, the Bible teaches that [...]
You’re Fired
Donald Trump made this phrase popular on his TV show, "The Apprentice." Each week contestants would compete with others on teams or individually till only one champion remained and was hired as an apprentice by Trump's Company. The major point of interest to the audience was who would be fired and why. Mr. Trump and [...]
With Faith
My grandson told me that he had to make a Medieval shield in an upcoming school assignment. He could draw one on poster board and cut it out or if he could make one out of wood or metal he would earn creativity points that were up to fifty percent of the grade. He asked, [...]
The Perfect You
"I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." (Psalm 139: 14). Scripture acknowledges the wonder creator God incorporated into the human being. Even so, our fallen human nature in this fallen world full of corruption is far from perfect. Mankind's legacy on earth is [...]
Emotional Beings
I have a granddaughter with a face of a thousand expressions each one with meaning, emotion like a complete table of emoges. Scripture reminds us the we are fearfully and wonderfully made. (Ps. 139: 14). "Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath [...]
World In Decline
It is quite easy to observe the decline of this world's system. It can be quite interesting to remark and analyze the nuances of its encroachment and outright attack upon truth and righteousness. I have written about certain of these aspects, but lately, I've been convicted regarding the virtue of such pursuits. As American citizens [...]
Love’s View
At one time or another we picture God as far away in heaven viewing down upon the earth as though it is an insignificant speck in creation. God is high and lifted up ruler above all, but He demonstrated His true nature of love through Yeshua. "Who, being in very nature God, did not consider [...]
Humility
This is the most powerful state of being for the Believer. It is the key to unlock the door of God's will. Yeshua took on the form of a servant and humbled himself. He taught us, "The greatest among you will be your servant. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who [...]
Message to the Nations
This message is for people of all nations, but most importantly to those who are smaller or struggling. Your national identity is from God. (Acts 17: 26). "All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations will bow down before him, for dominion belongs [...]
God On Earth
"Walk about Zion, go around her, count her towers, consider well her ramparts, view her citadels, that you my tell of them to the next generation. For this God is our God for ever and ever; he will be our guide even to the end." (Psalm 48: 12-14). God is present among His people and [...]
What the Bible Says
I was visiting my ninety-seven year old father-in-law and he was telling me about the old man who was cutting his lawn at that time. He interjected, "He speaks in Jibber-jabber." I paused offering a quizzical expression, to which he added, "We used to call them Holy Rollers." I just said, "Oh", as there are [...]
Give Me Jesus
The Hiding Place, by Corrie ten Boom is one of my favorite books and movies. My friend likes it perhaps more than I and we have had great fellowship discussing its lessons of God's love in the midst of horrific unjust circumstances. I have walked in the courtyard at Yad Vashem where a tree memorializes [...]
New Life
Perhaps the most current, tangible, widespread and ongoing evidence of the truth and power contained in the message of the Bible is the transformation experienced by every believer. It is described therein, by Yeshua Himself in a conversation with Nicodemus, a zealous religious leader who admitted to Yeshua, " 'Rabbi, we know that you are [...]
How Yeshua Looked
There are no images or specific description of Yeshua, but the Bible tells us something about His countenance. "He grew up before him like a tender shoot, and like a root out of dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. [...]
Highest Evangelical Outreach
Just recently, Alice Johnson was pardoned and released from prison and gave a stirring speech thanking God and President Trump. She said that her time in prison was not wasted and that God knew her name. Many prisoners come to faith while incarcerated. You might be surprised at this, but it's true. God is working [...]
World History (Or a Part Distinctly Unique)
Deuteronomy Chapter Four can only be described as such, because it denotes the basis for civilization, God's law; the centrality of Israel as God's chosen nation, inseparably including, Yeshua Messiah, and the believers who through Him are part of Israel; prophecy regarding the future redemption of Israel, their dispersion and regathering into the land, forever [...]
Shaking Off Shackles
Do you have bad thoughts? Discouraging thoughts about yourself and others. Do you see things around you that bring grief to your inner being or turmoil to your mind? Do you have memories that bring regret, sorrow, or pain from events, encounters, missed opportunities, or failures? The mind is a battlefield for your soul. When [...]
Satisfaction Famine
Do we even understand what satisfaction is and what purpose it has among humanity? It is not a euphoria produced by drugs. It is not a toy with which we play. It is genuine with many fakes passed off in deception. It is not wrong or evil except when it becomes solely selfish, and in [...]
Least in the Kingdom
"Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands and teaches others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven." (Matthew 5: 19). To set aside what the Lord has commanded and to teach [...]
Tyrants Rise
In the free world government leaders are elected by the people or their representatives. In communist countries or dictatorships the ruling group is kept in power by the military or state police. Hitler was not elected, he cheated to get a foothold, then took over and abolished traditional German government. The nation was in crisis [...]
Authority on Earth
All authority on earth comes down from God. He sets up and removes kings and rulers. The best example is Pharoah of Egypt during the time of Moses. At that time those under his authority might have disputed how a loving God could permit such evil to take place against His chosen people Israel. The [...]
Searching for Sugarman
This is a 2012 documentary movie about a singer of whom I had never heard. It's a true story that is really well told. It is rated 8.2 on IMBD which puts it in the class of Green Book, Wolf of Wall Street, Batman Begins, and A Beautiful Mind, just to name a few. I [...]
Proof of Claim
The majority of the food we eat has seeds in it. These seeds when planted or merely dropped on fertile soil would grow into another plant and eventually produce more food. This relationship between beings and plants on this planet is so remarkable as to indicate intelligent design. This premise with far more and better [...]
