Easily the biggest sin I deal with, and easily the most destructive, and I would guess you are close to the same.Let me ask this one major question before getting into this more. What has man done for you or given you that they are so worthy of your affection? What has man done for you [...] -

I like it because it has deep wisdom put in a simple form; that is, the secret to happiness spelled out in an almost tangible form. It also shows that Jesus had a little bit of situational humor in [...]

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 [...]
