“Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.” (Romans 12:21) Evil is growing all around, mainly in images, words and sounds coming from the father of lies, the prince of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in the disobedient. (Ephesians 2:1-2) Each day seems to have… Continue reading Solutions and Truth

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.
God is Literal
Consider how little meaning we attribute to the things we hear in the news, from our friends, co-workers and family. Some of us are worse than others in this regard, perhaps I’m in the eightieth percentile of those who discount, question, disregard, or absolutely ignore much of what I hear, depending on the source, topic,… Continue reading God is Literal
A Ministry Targeted
Parents have a charge to raise their children properly with love, diligence, discipline, safety, security and provision. These are instinctive, if anything is among humans, but some parents are inept, lazy, and/or too sick themselves to care for others, especially children. A society that does not hold parenting and children in high regard is evil.… Continue reading A Ministry Targeted
Resignation
The act of retiring or giving up a position should be the mark of a Believer, not necessarily as it pertains to work, but in one’s heart. For our life in Yeshua to be secure and complete we must embrace resignation of our ways and means in exchange for those of God. I don’t think… Continue reading Resignation
God in Every Minute
This day is the Lord’s, I will wait on Him and submit to Him. He speaks to His sheep and calls them by name. I saw a made-up word that got me thinking, “Churchless”. The Barnagroup has done some research and written a book entitled “Bowling Alone” which points out that only 23% of Churchless… Continue reading God in Every Minute
The God Factor
In the study of Cosmology, the origin of life in the Universe there is a small factor missing from every calculation. Einstein admitted it, as have others, but ignored it. In 1917, Einstein amended his 1915 general theory of relativity by adding no less than a “fudge factor” to his theory to account for the… Continue reading The God Factor
Foundations of Law
There are many tenets of law which safeguard justice, such as, laws are to apply to all equally; each case is judged on its own merits; justice has no favoritism as to an individual traits; the accused has a right to confront his accuser, and everyone is assumed innocent until proven guilty. There are more,… Continue reading Foundations of Law
Respect of God’s Work
“They have harps and lyres at their banquets, pipes and timbrels and wine, but they have no regard for the deeds of the Lord, no respect for the work of his hands.” (Isaiah 5:12) God wants us to understand and wonder at His works, but what is His work? First, the Creation and our fellow… Continue reading Respect of God’s Work
Necessity of Joy
Are you unhappy, worried, oppressed, weighed down, or anxious? This is understandable and normal if you are not a Believer in Yeshua and a serious follower. Moreover, even Believers can fall under the oppression of the enemy from time to time. In Pilgrims Progress Christian and Hopeful became captive to the giant of Doubting Castle… Continue reading Necessity of Joy
Message For Our Times
“Do not call conspiracy everything this people calls a conspiracy; do not fear what they fear, and do not dread it. The Lord Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy, he is the one you are to fear, he is the one you are to dread. He will be a holy place;… Continue reading Message For Our Times
Israel’s Example
Israel is in crisis, because it’s recently elected Prime Minister and Coalition Government have declared they will strip the Supreme Court of its authority, leaving them as the sole unrestricted law making body of government. The problem lies with the ultra orthodox who believe they should be directing the nation without balance or limitation. PM… Continue reading Israel’s Example
The Prince of this World
“But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and… Continue reading The Prince of this World
Unbelief – Resisting God
Acts 3:1 Is an account of Peter and John miraculously healing a lame man by the name of Jesus. All the people were amazed, but Peter explains how and why it happened by recounting what had very recently happened to Jesus with scripture references which prophesied and explained what God was accomplishing through His Messiah,… Continue reading Unbelief – Resisting God
The Enemy Emerges
There are astounding developments in both America and Israel that no one seems to connect. Government ruling against the will of the people. In both nations the sitting Government is taking actions opposed by either a majority or near majority of the people. Israeli government is seeking to eliminate its Supreme Court, the only branch… Continue reading The Enemy Emerges
God’s Offer
Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift. (2 Cor. 9:15) Everything of God illuminates in brilliance His divine Glory, Majesty and Supremacy. Even in the tragic School shooting three nine year old children and three sixty year old adults entered His eternal realm and for certain the children were met with a love that… Continue reading God’s Offer
Prayer Debriefing 12
Lord Yeshua, my heart is not stilled before you as it should be, threats and fears for my loved ones weigh heavy upon me. Yet, I know you are our hope and shield; your promises are firm as the stars above. You know all things and care for the small birds. Before I ask for… Continue reading Prayer Debriefing 12
Nature’s Force and Man’s
There are occasions when natures forces are set in particular position so as to cause unusual events and phenomenon. These are factually observed, but questionable as to their origin. For example, sometimes the clouds will be dark foreboding storms and rain, but just at sunrise the sunshine can illuminate underneath this vast layer of cloud… Continue reading Nature’s Force and Man’s
Your Heart and Mind
“Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.” (Colossians 3:1-2) To set something is to fix it firmly in a particularly place. We set our art high upon the… Continue reading Your Heart and Mind
Irrelevant Differences
No two humans are alike, yet we are prone to comparison. It is the basis of fairness, man’s false justice. In Court, everyone is treated the same under law conditioned upon the same facts. That condition is a huge one apart from different Courts interpreting the law differently. The Rule of law is a godly… Continue reading Irrelevant Differences
Sin of Presumption
This is an idea that is taken to be true, and often used as the basis for other uncertain ideas, with arrogance. In scripture we see many presumptions leveled at Yeshua as accusations, arguments and traps. When Yeshua was condemned to crucification the soldiers and those around made presumptive statements, such as, “He saved others;… Continue reading Sin of Presumption
Enchanted April
The 1991 movie of this title is one of my favorite all time films. It is simple and described with an understated narrative of four British women on holiday in Italy. It is rated 7.3 on IMDB, which is far below its worth as evidenced by its many awards. However, the depth of this film… Continue reading Enchanted April
Biden’s Legacy
The second worst President, Jimmy Carter, asked the worst President ever, Joe Biden, to preach his funeral. We hear a constant drum beat of “China is our enemy”, drowning out the sound of “Russia is our enemy.” The message is from our greatest enemy, the High Tech Media/Democrat/Socialists. Yes, China spies upon us, most recently… Continue reading Biden’s Legacy
Foreboding
“There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.” (1 John 4:18) We can succumb to fear as it slowly creeps into our subconscious thoughts. God has promised to watch over and protect us. (Isaiah… Continue reading Foreboding
New Emoji Described
Imagine you were at a gathering in a picturesque setting. Some people know each other, many don’t. There are some organizers and one or two speakers with their handlers and supplicants. There are group events scheduled and arranged, but a lot of free time for people to associate and mingle. During the free time you… Continue reading New Emoji Described
Giving to God
God needs nothing, more so anything we can give Him. Consequently, when we give to God, He gives it back sometimes multiplied. “Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days.” (Ecclesiastes 11:1 KJV) [Pardon an aside, but the NIV translates this passage as promoting the wisdom of international trade… Continue reading Giving to God
