The Spirit does not explain all things pertaining to His direction. If we presume or demand background knowledge in order to understand the scope or requirements of the Spirit's appointment we have made a terrible mistake. As independent Americans we think it's reasonable to have knowledge and explanations of our assignments before we begin. In… Continue reading Following the Spirit’s Lead

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.
Unity With whom
It is good to be aware of to who various scriptures refer. For example, Paul spends a considerable time discussing Israel in the book of Romans. As part of that discussion we see that Believers from the nations have not replaced Israel as to God's promises and blessings, but have been grafted in and are… Continue reading Unity With whom
The Green Prince Movie
This is a movie released in 2014, about the son of the Hamas leader in the west bank, Mosab Hassan Yousef. He collaborates with the Israeli Shin Bet while acting as his fathers trusted first assistant. It is one of those true stories that are stranger than fiction. However, there is a biblical equivalent between… Continue reading The Green Prince Movie
Mully, the Movie
This is the true story of a Kenyan man named Charles Mully. He begins telling his story as a young boy in poverty, due to his fathers drunkenness. He tells a desperate story that is heart breaking and difficult to believe. When he reaches the end of his rope and no longer wants to live… Continue reading Mully, the Movie
God In The Natural
The universe was made by God, by His design, through His spoken word, and He said it is good. We see God in Creation as it reflects His glory. (Ps. 19:1) Who has not looked at the majesty of the sky filled with clouds by day or stars by night and not marveled in wonder?… Continue reading God In The Natural
Seek Yeshua
Sometimes desiring God through communion, communication, presence, fellowship, embrace, I think of who He is - holy, exalted, perfect, infinite, almighty and I become disheartened because I am gas and He is fire, before I got to Him I would vaporize and burn up. I can not meet the smallest measure of His holy requirements,… Continue reading Seek Yeshua
In the Short term
"Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He… Continue reading In the Short term
Cleansing the Temple
There is certainly a Temple of God on earth; it is not made of brick and stone, but human hearts. (1 Cor. 16:9) It is within the Congregation of Believers and it requires restoration and cleansing, collectively and individually. What sort of cleaning is necessary? How can this happen? Who is great enough to proclaim… Continue reading Cleansing the Temple
A Pretenders Pretense
We all pretend, starting as children with vivid imaginations, full of hope, potential, and optimism for the future. It's great fun, particularly with playmates. As we mature we experience reality which is difficult and demanding. We must let go, stop pretending and embrace the truth. The enemy says, "You can still pretend and it will… Continue reading A Pretenders Pretense
More Faith and spirit rule
I'm hungry for more of God's presence and leading. The disciples occasionally opined upon Yeshua's (Jesus' Hebrew Name) direction or action and they were rebuked and/or found to be wrong. "The apostles said to the Lord, 'Increase our faith!' He replied, 'If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to… Continue reading More Faith and spirit rule

Weekend Camping We went camping when our children were very young, family and friends made it possible. Camping again with our grandchildren reminded me that a place where small children are welcome, cared for, and having fun is a good place to be. There is something about family camping that is basic, wholesome, innocent, and… Continue reading Magazine Issue 5
Unseen Power
I was in Church leadership, what alarmed me most were fellow leaders who exhibited self-will, by which, I mean reaching out to take independent action and decisions without a requisite surrender, inquiring, waiting and hearing from God. You may ask, "What about your own self-will?" That's a fair question and I'm certainly not above such… Continue reading Unseen Power
Prayer Debriefing Issue 2
As I was praying over our followers, some are just blog names, I saw many reasons to read our posts and follow the Conservative Christian Apologist. God is working, inspiring prayers, answering them, working miracles, touching hearts, all in His unseen ways. We all are part of His plans, everyone, even those opposed to us. … Continue reading Prayer Debriefing Issue 2
Our Media The Key
We know the Democrats control the Media or the Media controls the Democrats. We know a portion of them believe the world will die in twelve to thirty years from climate warming, unless drastic measures are taken to curtail carbon emissions. The majority of Americans can not and are not going to voluntarily give up… Continue reading Our Media The Key
Current Trends
Our blogs are fundamentally Christian because we are Christians, as such, Yeshua (Jesus' Hebrew name) is everything to us. God has so drastically changed us as to warrant the description, "Born Again" which is a very good thing. We are born again into the Kingdom of light, a realm where everything is submitted to God's… Continue reading Current Trends
Before and After Time
Modern man speaks of millions and billions of years, with evolutionary chance randomly creating this present world. The Bible speaks of Creations beginning, end, and the Eternal reality of God. "No, we declare God’s wisdom, a mystery that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began. (1 Cor. 2:7; Titus… Continue reading Before and After Time
Beginning To Believe
We talk about faith, believing, accepting, relying upon what we know to be true. There are degrees with these words, but in their pure full meaning, convictions and commitments emerge. Then, we are changed from bystanders, students, apprentices and enthusiasts to something much more. It is the difference that Yeshua, (Jesus’ Hebrew name) talked about… Continue reading Beginning To Believe
Money, Money, Money
My former pastor once said the best way to denounce the god of mammon (money) is to treat is as though it is worthless, give it away and place no value upon it. Yeshua, (Jesus' Hebrew name) said, "I tell you, use worldly wealth to gain friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone,… Continue reading Money, Money, Money
The Friend Removed
In everyone's life there is a person or few, with whom we make a connection along our pathway through life toward our destiny. It is difficult to describe these people as a unit with precisely the same characteristics because they are not the same, but similar. Moreover, we are not the same person when we… Continue reading The Friend Removed
Lies We Believe
The adage, "Repeat something often enough and people will believe it", is true, in part, like many colloquialisms. The socialist media certainly employs it as does their leader, Satan. The human will is like building materials put under a load to test their strength. At a point wood, iron and steel eventually weaken, crack, bend and… Continue reading Lies We Believe
Blog Prayer Debriefing Issue 1
This month we hit the ground running with prayers of spiritual warfare for victory over demonic attacks, oppression, and footholds. It surprised me, considering you are Believers strong in faith and the Word, but the enemy is not concerned with those in his prisons, but rather with the saints who are tearing them down. So,… Continue reading Blog Prayer Debriefing Issue 1

Believer’s Testimony We were on vacation and I mentioned "The Lord" to an acquaintance in conversation, he stopped and acknowledged his mutual faith. I added, "The Lord’s name is Yeshua", just so there was no misunderstanding. The next day I had an opportunity to ask him about his faith. One of the things we talked… Continue reading Magazine Issue 4
Greatest Moment In History
The single greatest event in human history is the death of Yeshua on the Roman Cross, at the date that time changed from BC (before Christ) to AD (After death). The pagan world is striving to change this time distinction, but the evidence, credibility and knowledge of Yeshua Messiah, (Hebrew for Jesus Christ) is too… Continue reading Greatest Moment In History
Meaninglessness and Vanity
I spent the night in a restless dream of effort without resolution, completion or meaning. I remembered Solomon's exhaustive analysis, "Meaningless! Meaningless!" says the Teacher. "Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless." (Ecclesiastes 1:2) Yes, and he observed what I experienced in my dream. "All their days their work is grief and pain; even at night their… Continue reading Meaninglessness and Vanity
With Every Temptation
"No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it." (1 Corinthians 10:13) If we believed and lived this we… Continue reading With Every Temptation
