Romans 1:1. Paul, a slave of Christ Jesus.
With the understanding that Jesus is God, I began to study the gospels where the actions and words of Jesus were laid out before me.

Hebrews 12:2 The act of fixing my eyes on Jesus. An edited repost.
This idea of fixing my eyes on Jesus will not let go of me. Hebrews 12:2 Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author, and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, … Continue reading
Where do we go when we die?
Several weeks ago the Monday morning men’s Bible Study opened with: Where do we go when we die? The answers were varied and skewed. Some even claimed we go to paradise; yes, the same place that we find beggar Lazarus … Continue reading

A laymen’s overview of John’s gospel.
Having heard the theological breakdowns of John’s gospel, I am acknowledging that these portrayals are most assuredly there. However, all those word pictures seem to do little for me as I am always taken back by the power and depth of … Continue reading

The phrase, “This calls for wisdom” falls in the middle of verses 16 – 18. I think understanding most of the Revelation calls for wisdom, but this section happens to be one the hardest to comprehend. If you have followed … Continue reading

Some thoughts on my pastor’s recent “teaching” and what I know and see in Revelation 6:2

I went in the bitterness and anger of my spirit.
