Negotiate This
On September 30, 1938, British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain returned from Munich, Germany after having agreed to the so-called Munich Pact the day before with Adolf Hitler. He arrived home a hero, as most of the nation believed that he had singlehandedly averted a European war with his deft diplomacy; in fact, Chamberlain got off […]
“Body of Christ” Defined
One verse in the New Testament defines the “body of Christ.” 1 Corinthians 12:27, “Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.” Paul says that the church at Corinth is the body of Christ. He says, “Ye,” not “we.” Paul was a believer, so by excluding himself, he surely defined the body […]
Thoughts about What We Want and What We Deserve
A man visited our church a few times and then I saw him a few other places, and I would ask him the standard: “How ya doin’?” He answered, “Better than I deserve.” The normal reply: “Good!” He remembered that no man is good, although I believe that a justified person can do good (proof […]

Your Online Marriage Service On Hiatus
Hi. I started this series at the request of a single man in our church in California. He really, really wanted me to let others know what the Bible teaches on this. It was of no special interest to me at this time. Others had asked me about it and were curious. I will continue […]
YOUR ONLINE MARRIAGE SERVICE V
Trivia question. Who is the biggest imbecile in the history of television? If you guessed “Dad,” you are correct. The Father is trashed by our culture more than any other person, and especially by the TV writers, producers, and directors—just think Homer Simpson, Archie Bunker, and worse. As a result, boys grow up not understanding […]
Your Online Marriage Service part IV
Warning: This will not be effective for those who do not desire to please God. I say this, in part, because people like to know how something will benefit them. They want to hear that their lives will be improved in some way. Well, it will help you. Count on it. I could list those […]
KEEP LOOKING
UP? Yes. But also at this blog, because although I’m on the road for two weeks, I’ll try to add to this online marriage series. I am preaching at two events in two different churches sandwiching a family vacation.
My Online Marriage Service III
