You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Don’t miss the precision of Christ’s supervision: He knew exactly what His people in Smyrna would face, and He set the limit. And don’t miss the provision: He promised the crown of life on the other side of suffering. What He orders, He oversees; what He permits, He provides for. "Do not fear any of those things which you are about to suffer. Indeed, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and you will have tribulation ten days. Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life" (Revelation 2:10)
Without affliction, we often don’t change our direction. As David wrote, “Before I was afflicted I went astray, but now I obey Your word” (Psalm 119:67). In other words, God will allow an affliction to grace our lives in order to move us closer to His life.
On the cross, love won. On the cross, sin is gone. On the cross, redemption started. On the cross, death was thwarted. On the cross, He bore our shame. On the cross, He knew our name. On the cross, Oh what a Savior. On the cross, no grace is...
The very One the world wants dead is the only One who died for the world. You see, the mob today still yells "crucify Him" in the way they reject the One True God. And yet, though the world rejects the Lord, that doesn't stop how the Lord...
What happened between man's greatest evil against God (the crucifixion) and God's greatest good for man (the Resurrection)? Jesus took our sin and shame to the deepest grave, He conquered death and made a way for all the world to...
Jesus spoke words of grace from the cross of shame. He said, "Father forgive them" even as we hung Him. In other words, there is no failure of ours that will ever speak louder than the character of God. His forgiveness is greater than our sinfulness. Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do” (Luke 23:34).
Celebrating Holy Week is traditional, but celebrating the Holy One who descended upon that week is the Gospel. "No pain, no palm; no thorns, no throne; no gall, no glory; no cross, no crown" (William Penn). Enough said! "Then the multitudes who...
Charlie Kirk was assassinated. That alone should grieve us. But what followed has been equally disturbing: conspiracies blaming Israel, Mossad, or “the Jews.” Some call it discernment, but it’s delusion. This is a spiritual fog: a mix of historical ignorance, antisemitic tropes, YouTube rabbit holes, and...
Merry CHRISTmas! I recently saw the movie Exodus: gods & kings, and what a major let down. You see, when you know the true story, the worlds portrayal of it is always empty. I left the theater greatly distressed about the script that Hollywood concocted, which was at the expense of the truth of Scriptures and the reality of God’s holiness. I wonder how many people viewed that movie and thought.....
Is it just a Christmas story or can there be a Christmas reality? Well, whichever one you perceive is determined by the “Christmas” that you conceive in the womb of your heart. One births purpose, and the other, well, just presents. You see, what if I told you God’s testimony starts with a birth, was fulfilled with a death, and continues with your life? And the only way it can really end is if you don’t allow His message to enter your mess. Anyway, I will continue with this thought as I am honored to be speaking at Crest Community Church, located at 5901 Pacific Avenue, Wildwood Crest, NJ 08260, on Christmas Eve this year......
Nine years later and we’re still saying “we’ll see you later!” “But now he is dead; why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me" (II Samuel 12:23). We’re going to those who have gone before us. Those who are not gone from us, but absent from us. Those who are dead to this side of life, but alive and whole on the other side with Christ. We are going to them! Not to be with just them, but to be with Jesus with them. That is what heaven is! A means to get to Jesus......
Our temporal losses, when given to God, become eternal victories here on earth. And when I say “losses,” I mean death. However, this person’s death, was nothing more than a catalyst for so much life. And when I say “death,” I mean absence from this side of life. And though he is absent from us, his life and impact still touches us. I don’t want to spoil some of my thoughts because I will be....
