A commentary on John 1:45-46. We have found Him of whom Moses in the Law and also the Prophets wrote—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph
Answers for Rick. The leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. Revelation 22.
Scriptures that speak to our knowing, within a tight window of opportunity, when Jesus will return for His bride.
I finally heard a Pastor take a bold stance and say, I am 100% going to declare the day; and so am I.
I am no different than you. I, too, have to fight through the fears and verbal attacks from zealots.

Fulfilling the Law Through Love. Romans 13:8-14.
That’s quite the title considering that Paul is known for preaching grace. As Paul tries to tell us how to follow the law, the “law” and love, at first glance, those two words do not seem to belong together, as … Continue reading

The marks of a true Christian – what does that mean? Romans 12:9-21.
Note how the NASB uses the term wickedness. Just the mention of the word evokes images of horrific acts. Look that word “wickedness” up, and you can find, according to the Word Study Dictionary, that a sufficient and simplistic understanding is “what ought not to be.” That sounds like something my granddad used to say. He applied that farm mentality to me on more than one occasion, but notably when I tested out the cigarette lighter in his car and got burned. Continue reading

Has God rejected His own people? Romans 11:1-10.
We open our study of Romans 11 with the last three verses of Romans 10. Why? Because chapter 11 is a continuation of thought, and, as you will see, opens with what seems like an important. If we have some … Continue reading

The longing of my heart and prayer to God. Chapter two. Romans 10:14-21.
Paul throws out another of his questions. How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him, whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher? (Romans 10:14 NASB) … Continue reading

Is there injustice in God? Romans 9:15 – 27. Part two of two.
We looked at Romans 9:14 where Paul asked the question, is there injustice in God? Paul answers his own question with, Of course not!; Paul continues with what we see in Romans 9:15-16. Romans 9:15-16 NET. For he says to … Continue reading

God’s sovereign choice. Romans 9: 1-14. Part one of two.
That simplistic word glory, which the CJB translated as “Sh’khinah,” is the Greek word doxa and conveys splendor, brightness, magnificence, excellence, preeminence, dignity, grace, and majesty. All these things, though difficult to see, emanated within all these ways set before God’s people. Continue reading

Suffering compared with glory. Romans 8:18-30
My first thought, the Glory of God’s presence, is something I can only vaguely describe, and all I understand of heaven boils down to one simple word, peace. So, there truly is no comparison, especially those who sit beside me … Continue reading

Those who are according to the Spirit. Romans 8:5-11
The NASB entitles, chapter eight, Life in the Spirit. I have come to realize that whether we meet up with religious expectations or not, we are, and will be alive in the Spirit. This idea of life makes more sense … Continue reading
