GONE TILL LATE FRIDAY NIGHT
What is Truth will be back with more sympathetic to satirical, from substantive to soothing. Be sure to read the very last post. No comments posted until Saturday. Now go out and do the Scriptural thing.
What Dad Expects When He Returns
“And when I get back, I’m going to be inspecting what you’ve done.” These were the last words the four brothers—oldest to youngest, Ralph, Phil, Robert, and Ronnie—heard before their father left on a long trip. For while he was gone, he gave them them a list of things to do, one complete copy for […]
YOU CAN’T KNOW MY HEART
I sat in front of my clean table cloth and ordered the pho (pronounced “fu,” short “u” sound), Vietnamese soup. I looked to my right, noticed the large white soup spoons, the paper encased chopsticks, the bright red hot sauce, the yellow, liquidy fish sauce, and a finger smudge on the window. Windex. I had […]
An Apologetic for Men’s Skirts
I’ve said in a moment of calm and thoughtfulness, “Put a skirt on him!” I, of course, in that tranquil demeanor that I often manifest, spoke of a lack of masculinity, and I am here to inform you that I want to take it all back. I’m starting to see the light, and I am […]
The Big Bang and the Big One
I like to say that I believe in the Big Bang, just that it hasn’t happened yet. 2 Peter 3:10, “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the […]
Group Praying
Do you remember Elijah and the priests of Baal? No, not the pop group! This was on Mt. Carmel and they had that contest—the rocks, water, sacrifice—calling down fire from heaven. Well, if you can recall, the priests of Baal danced around, screamed, cut themselves, and then Elijah said, I’m pretty sure sarcastically (UNDERSTATEMENT), ‘pray […]
Projectionist
I’m preaching through Isaiah on Sunday mornings. I’m in a section where God prophesies the judgment of nations. He mainly wants Judah to stop relying on alliances with nations and to start trusting Him. In the midst of these prophecies, through Isaiah God brings in the city of Jerusalem (chapter 22). In that context, God […]
What Do You Think?
Something keeps bugging me. Do you ever have that? There is more than this, but here it is. A few years ago, our church published a book entitled Thou Shalt Keep Them, which is a Biblical theology of the perfect preservation of Scripture. I graduated from Maranatha Baptist Bible College in Watertown, Wisconsin. I wanted […]
Not a Big Disappearing Act
In a discussion during discipleship with a man, part of the lesson on eschatology (study of last things), we got onto the topic of “how people will be fooled by the Antichrist during the tribulation period.” Here’s the thing. A huge best-selling series has been written about it, The Left Behind series. Even many unbelievers […]
Government, Family, Church: Why More?
Seven days. Spoken word. How God created the earth. Tempted in all points as we are, yet without sin. How God lived on earth. We can’t flee from Him, fool Him, or fight Him. He understands all mysteries and all knowledge. Nothing occurs to Him. Oh, and then He is love, and He loves us. […]
