“For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” –Matt. 6:21 “For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks” –Matt. 12:34b Our conversation and our words show where our heart is and thus reflect where our treasure is.

Yes, I think that these Scriptures establish a pattern that points to continuing significance and ultimate fulfillment: Romans 15:4; Col 2:16 & 17; 1 Peter 1:12; 1 Cor 10:11. Also since Jesus Christ has not returned yet ”in like manner” as he ascended (Acts 1:11), His prophecies in Matthew 24-25 decidely have a double fulfillment [...]

Naturally, I have read these verses many times. In fact, I had to read a whole book about the Sermon on the Mount in seminary. But, somehow, it just dawned on me that these verses about clothing are NOT about trying to decide which shirt color goes with the best skirt color. Jesus is talking [...]

“Preach the Gospel, and if necessary use words.” St Francis. This was in the Essential 100 devotional for this week. I really have a problem with this cute saying that is commonly flung around our churches today like a frisbee. I don’t think it stacks up biblically (“Preach the Gospel, and don’t let your lifestyle contradict [...]
