But Lord, Lord…Sorry! I never knew you
This was very poorly written and many of the examples prefer outdated. So, I deleted this one.

Are you getting nervous? I’m excited
For those of us who have been around long enough, this time is unusually chaotic. I read this in Dr. David Reagan’s article this morning. Everywhere we look, in every direction, the world appears to be falling apart. We are racked by wars and rumors of wars. Immorality and violence are rampant. Our money is being devalued and debased. Our educational systems have been hijacked by Humanists and Atheists. Our political systems are gridlocked by value wars and … Continue reading →
Accused of being religious?
Accused of being religious — I hope not. What a horrible thing that is! I am certainly not religious, at least not too much. According to dictionary.com: a religion is a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, especially when considered as the creation of a superhuman agency or agencies, usually involving devotional and ritual observances, and often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs. The problem is that sets are defined and God is beyond definition—at least my God is. Sets of beliefs become merely points of argument: think waste of time. Yes, I can define many of my beliefs. Many of them are Biblical. I do see the … Continue reading →
The mission of the church during apostasy
The mission of the church during apostasy. Things have gotten much worse during the nearly ten years since I wrote this post. Let’s get one thing straight, I am not a fan of the organizations I see. My experiences with the church organizations of the 21st century are not good, and I expect them to get worse. [Ed: though we finally found one In Rochester, NY in 2019.] Back in 2011, I had just heard about the … Continue reading →
Book review: “Unlocking the Mysteries of Creation”
I just spent an enlightening, mind-twisting Sabbath devouring this book. It cleared up so many objections I have always had about my upbringing as a top science student in the 1950s, and in my Christian life since 1974. I’ve known that governing my life by my walk in the Spirit coupled with sincere, deep Bible study meant that I could not ignore Genesis. But I’d never questioned my eons of time assumption. Now I can see that … Continue reading →
Writing in InDesign gives you layout power
I’ve been working on a new expanded version of “Writing In InDesign” for my peers in ministry. (I haven’t figured out how to add the updates into the first edition.) I may write “Drawing In InDesign” first. Then I’ll do a radically expanded 2nd edition of “Writing In InDesign”—but that’s all in flux. I also received this in an email this morning: From Don in Colorado: I was up until 3:am reading Writing in InDesign. I can tell you’ve put … Continue reading →
Evolution is ridiculous
Evolution is ridiculous. The Lord has brought me into repentance lately as I have been confronted with the facts proving that evolution is merely a poorly thought out religion. For example, explosions generate destruction and chaos. The idea that a Big Bang resulted in mankind and civilization is absurd. But it goes much further than that. The Beginning and the Ending Should the Bible be spiritualized? by Dr. David R. Reagan This article is one of the best, … Continue reading →
Thank you for the trial, Lord
Thank you for the trial , Lord. I was listening to John Hagee this morning. He was on one of his wonderful tirades again about the glory of Jesus. But then he slipped into something I have heard over and over since becoming a believer as I studied scripture. Sadly, I rarely hear it from the pulpit. Rejoice in your trials Maybe the NASB puts it better: exult in our tribulations [Romans 5:3]. Pastor Hagee was talking about … Continue reading →
How ugly was Jesus ?
How ugly was Jesus ? Of course I can say that! The Bible says it. When was the last time you considered it? Jesus was ugly or worse. Let’s look at the relevant scriptures. How ugly was Jesus ? Just as there were many who were appalled at him— his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any human being and his form marred beyond human likeness— [Isaiah 52:14 NIV] Oh, but that was just on the … Continue reading →

Dad’s the One to Like in Social Media, Gaming, Entertainment | News – Advertising Age. “Dads, even more than moms, believe they’re spending more time with their kids these days than their parents did. But how dads are spending that time skews heavily toward media, entertainment and the internet, according to a new broad-ranging survey… The Ipsos LMX Family survey… found dads are spending 50% or more time than moms with kids online, playing video games and going … Continue reading →
