"This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit." (1 John 4: 13). This is an answer to a commonly asked question, that arises again and again, though we may know it at some level. David, begged the Lord, "Do not cast me… Continue reading Living in Yeshua
Author: steve2525
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.
Crockett’s Own Story
Recorded history may be more awash with opinion than fact. Of course, movies and TV shows are designed to exaggerate and embellish stories for entertainment purposes, but an honest man's own account will bear up against the cross examination of opinion. I found "A Narrative of the Life of David Crockett" to be an interesting… Continue reading Crockett’s Own Story
David Crockett
David Crockett wrote a narrative biography of his life in 1835. Unable to abtain a ready copy of it, I picked up, "Davy Crockett, the Man, the Legend, the Legacy", by Michael Lofaro. This book is a book report on all the books, movies, TV shows, and periodicals written about the man. That alone is… Continue reading David Crockett
God’s Test and Ours
Steel is formulated from iron and carbon in a process with extreme heat to produce properties of hardness and strength. When it is tempered it will bend without breaking. It is tested to ensure that the process has achieved its purpose. We are God's handiwork according to His design and Sovereign will. The processes used… Continue reading God’s Test and Ours
Correcting the Record
Imagine if your child came home from school and told you that the best thing to do when you get cut is to put cow dunk on it and bleed a lot if you have a fever. This is where we are in public education today. All but the very oldest people alive today were… Continue reading Correcting the Record
Interview With The Editor of the Apologist
Your insight for a blog about "life on God's terms", can you tell us what was your inspiration was or how this came to you? I see so many people today who only want to accept God on their terms. This is especially true in regard to the social issues of the day. Do you not… Continue reading Interview With The Editor of the Apologist
Messiah’s Return
Israel was destroyed in 70 AD, by the Romans, shorty after the Messiah Yeshua was killed, raised to life and ascended to heaven. In 1947 the Israeli nation was reestablished. In 1967, Jerusalem the capital of Israel was liberated from foreign captivity and rule. In 2018, Jerusalem was designated the capital of Israel by the… Continue reading Messiah’s Return
Kingdom Assignments
Everyone has a different calling and purpose in God's Kingdom. Though there may be many ministers or teachers or worship leaders, they are each different. Moreover, there are tasks that God assigns that we might never consider an actual calling of God. For example, there are those who watch, wait, and worship. God's society is… Continue reading Kingdom Assignments
Frustrated Wicked
Evil people scheme and contrive how to steal, kill and destroy. They are not just rough criminals, some are beautiful, rich and powerful. These are the aims of their father, Satan, who has them captive by their own evil desires. Together all the wicked would destroy the entire world, if they could, but they are… Continue reading Frustrated Wicked
Prayer Group
I've been in many prayer groups, most were great. We had a small one at work that did exploits in the Spirit among people, organizations, crossing boundaries. The one most unusual was with a group of women, who allowed me to join them, (I had secured my wife's concurrence and she knew them all). This… Continue reading Prayer Group
Human Wisdom
If I could offer you nothing but human wisdom I would be deceiving you that I was something other than a weak flawed human just like you. However, if I knew the perfect God-Man who was the door to life evermore and the only healer, restorer and savior; I could tell you all He has… Continue reading Human Wisdom
The Believer’s Victory Story
I've heard many people say it and I have experienced myself - When God chooses to do something He often involves people, although our part is always very small. The Bible bears this out with Moses, and many others. Moses said what God told him to say, but God did all of the delivering. We… Continue reading The Believer’s Victory Story
The Fingerprint of God
If this being is omnipotent, then every occurrence, including every human action, every human thought, every human feeling and aspiration is also His work; how is it possible to think of holding men responsible for their deeds and thoughts before such an almighty Being? In giving out punishment and rewards he would to a certain… Continue reading The Fingerprint of God
Most People
Most people are environmentalists, they don't pollute the land, water or air, nor do they think others should. These same people are kind to animals and would never think of starving or abusing their pets, or even a stray. The vast majority of people have compassion for the poor and those who have lost their… Continue reading Most People
Yeshua’s Father
What of Yeshua's relationship with His Father. As with all things regarding Yeshua we can see a perfect relationship between Father and Son. As a young boy Yeshua talked of being in his Father's house. He sought out God's presence even as a young boy. He acknowledged that He alone really knew God, that all… Continue reading Yeshua’s Father
Trump Speaking Out
Many people, even those who support President Trump, are put off by his responses to those who falsely accused him. This is a departure from some past Presidents, particularly George W. Bush, who thought it was beneath the office and even prevented others from offering a defense. What I still consider one of the most… Continue reading Trump Speaking Out
Hope for the Downcast
"Praise the Lord, my soul, and forget not all his benefits—who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's." (1) Enter His gates with… Continue reading Hope for the Downcast
An Aberration Unexplained
Our communication methods, tools, means, and technology are evolving at an unprecedented rate. TV has been relegated to a dwindling source of news; Internet and other digital and video forums are growing as fast as the technology that enables it. Nevertheless, in this high-tech environment AM radio has produced an aberration that has impacted the entire… Continue reading An Aberration Unexplained
Our Plight on Earth
If you had only one set of clothes you might be better off than other men. If you had a complete set of underwear, you certainly would be greatly advantaged to those who are barely able to cover their nakedness, but your clothes would become dirty, tattered, and worn by constant use, so that in… Continue reading Our Plight on Earth
Division
At the height of the cold war, school children regularly practiced getting under their desks at the sound of a loud siren, designating a nuclear attack from the USSR, our bitter enemy. The threat was real and tensions high. As a small child my hope was that the bomb would hit right on us, so… Continue reading Division
More Science Fiction
I have always enjoyed a good science fiction story, but to be good it must have a device to make it plausible. C.S. Lewis wrote a science fiction trilogy with the first book, "Out of the Silent Planet", published in 1938. It employed an anti-gravity coating on a space ship that enabled space travel to… Continue reading More Science Fiction
Because of My Enemies
A novel idea comes forth like an answer unknown, unexpected, but shining as light, enabling vision. Sometimes amid the rambling questions and flitting fancies that occupy our mind a conversation forms. To some It may seem like arrogance to say, "I heard from God." Still, when it happens it's undeniable within the depths of your… Continue reading Because of My Enemies

Then will the eyes of the blind be… Continue reading Coming Influence of God
Alone in the Wilderness
This is the title of a documentary film about Dick Proenneke, a man who left civilization for the Alaskan wilderness. This movie is a quintessential male statement of challenge, endeavor and quest. The film was compiled from self-made films and the personal diary of one man's search for peace and freedom found in the… Continue reading Alone in the Wilderness
Judgment
I heard about a man who found a ticket for his shoe repair that he had lost almost ten years earlier. Considering he had nothing to lose, he went to the shoe repair shop and provided the ticket. The shoe repairman took it, went into the back and after some time returned. The man asked, […]
