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

Henry was a very successful self-taught back-country lawyer and one of the first and chief instigators of the American Revolution and the resulting secession of the colonies from Britain. He was one… Continue reading Lion of Liberty
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
Schulz and Peanuts
"Schulz and Peanuts" is a book about Charles Schulz, written by David Michaelis. Beginning in 1950 through his death in 2000, Charles Schulz transformed the newspaper comic strip with his "Peanuts" children characters. His strip differed from many others, which centered around gags and action, having its characters register emotions such as anxiety, depression, yearning… Continue reading Schulz and Peanuts

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
Presumptuous Sins
"But the person who does anything with a high hand, whether he is native or a sojourner, reviles the Lord, and that person shall be cut off from among his people." Numbers 15:30 "Who can discern his errors? Declare me innocent from hidden faults. Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion… Continue reading Presumptuous Sins
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
Nimrod
Nimrod is an interesting character mentioned in the Bible. We know from the Bible that he was the grandson of Noah and son of Ham whose people settled primarily in Africa. He built the cities of Babel (later known as Babylon), Erech, and Accad in Shinar and then went on to build Nineveh and Caluah… Continue reading Nimrod
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
Thomas Paine
Thomas Paine was one of the Founding Fathers of the American Revolution. A philosopher, political theorist and revolutionary Paine authored the two most influential pamphlets at the start of the Revolution, "Common Sense" and "The American Crisis". His ideals reflected Enlightenment-era Humanistic ideals including believing in the ability of people to govern themselves. A total… Continue reading Thomas Paine
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
Desperate Sons
"Desperate Sons" is a book by Les Standiford that tells the story of the "Sons of Liberty", the band of anarchists who led the American Colonies to war and seceding from Britain and establishing America. Never a popular revolution, at no time did a majority support the American Revolution and around a third of the… Continue reading Desperate Sons

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
Strat-O-Matic Fanatics
"Strat-O-Matic Fanatics" by Glenn Guzzo is the true story behind the creation of America's most popular sports board game, Strat-O-Matic. The book traces the game's roots from 11-year-old Hal Richman's bedroom, his first rudimentary attempts at developing a baseball game when he was not satisfied with the statistical accuracy of games on the market, down… Continue reading Strat-O-Matic Fanatics
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
