Have you entered the treasuries of the snow…?
(Job 38:22)Praise God He brought me here! What an absolutely beautiful world the LORD has created for us!
This scene is from our Glacier Bay National Park. ”The earth is the LORD’s and the fulness thereof…”

“Christians should not barely consider what is in itself lawful to be done, but what is fit for them to do.”Matthew Henry Commentary on 1 Cor 6:12. It seems that the maxim “All things are lawful for me” was referring to all food was now lawful to eat (see context), NOT giving a license for sins of the flesh, as some were evidently misapplying it.

Today in the newsletter from the Jerusalem Prayer Team, Dr. Mike Evans wrote: “Ze’ev Bielski, the member of Israel’s Knesset who chairs the panel on Home Defense Preparation presented a grim assessment this week to the Jewish people of the risk posed by war.

Today is Passover. Last night was Good Friday and the start of Passover. Last night Jews and Christians around the world were honoring YHWH who saves! This morning, I opened my Bible and my eyes fell on Ezekiel 37:13 : “Then you shall know that I AM the LORD when I have [...] -

Now unto Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, unto Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen. (Ephesians 3:20) The ladies’ retreat had been refreshing. We were filled to overflowing with heavenly manna, but [...] -

Sing, o barren! “He gives the barren woman a home, making her the joyous mother of children. Praise the Lord!” (Ps 113:9) Abraham’s wife Sarai was barren . (Gen 11:30) But Abraham believed God. Then in God’s timing, Isaac, the child of promise was born in their old age. Isaac’s wife Rebekah was barren. (Gen 25:21) But Isaac pleaded with the Lord and she [...]

Staggering statistics there about only 20% finishing well. However, all the apostles (excepting Judas) finished well! We have the indwelling Holy Spirit which the OT saints did not! And we have the promise of God that He gives us the desires of our hearts and your desire is Him. But, I understand what you mean. [...]

I love the Leonard Cohen song “Hallelujah!” but his experience is different than mine. So, if I ever sing it somewhere, I’ll sing these lyrics: ♥ There was a time Christ let me know Why He stepped down to this earth below But do you really want to know, now do ya? Lay down your [...]

Peas in your nose? Did David tell you about his brother doing that?
In reply to - karina posted an update about Genesis 2: Verse 17 stood out to me today. In our OT Survey class, we discussed that parents should avoid making rules before they’re needed, lest the child get ideas from the rules. For example, if you tell your kid he cannot put peas in his nose, you may have just [...] · View -

PS: a clarification: ”I’ve always thought” should be clarified with ”since I realized He was coming again” after I was delivered.
In reply to - Carolyn Anne Venable posted an update: I’ve always thought the Second Coming will be the BIGGEST EVENT of human history. It seems the great commentator Matthew Henry agrees.

Don’t let anyone deprive you of the promise, the Blessed Hope of His Coming! (Titus 2:13) Those who mockingly ask ’Where is the promise of His coming?’ scoffers! (2 Peter 3:3) Jesus WILL COME again! All through Scripture, is the promise of His Coming to judge evil and redeem His people! (See also Matthew 13:38-43)

I’ve always thought the Second Coming will be the BIGGEST EVENT of human history. It seems the great commentator Matthew Henry agrees. Without the Second Coming, ”all the other articles of the Christian faith will signify very little; this is that which fills up and gives the finishing stroke to all the rest.” (on 2 Peter 3) Amen! He continues: ”The believer not only desires that he may come, but having a promise that he will come, he is also firmly and fully persuaded that he will come.” We are admonished to be ”looking for the Day of God” and also to be ”hastening” it! (2 Peter 3:12) Now, may you understand why this is a subject I reference often in conversation. Maranatha! Come, LORD Jesus, come!

When I was in India a year ago, churches were buying billboard space to calm people down, telling them that the world was not going to end in 2012. Even in rural India this was a fear! While the world may not be ending in 2012, the Babylonian world system will end! Jesus Christ is Lord! And His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom! You’re invited!
In reply to - Spiritually Complete posted an update: End of the World-December 21, 2012 Is the world really looking to a lost civilization known as the Mayans and the ambiguous predictions of Nostradamus to determine the precise day the world will end? The chosen day, December 21, 2012, is a day full of speculation and fear. You may read [...] · View -

We have a choice between a ”second death” or a second birth! These are your choices:
God is going to judge evil! That’s a good thing! He doesn’t want these comic troublemakers and terrorists running around forever wreaking havoc. Haven’t you asked yourself why God allows such evil. He will put a stop to it all. All evil will be thrown into the lake of fire. (Revelation 20:14)
The devil and all his minions are doomed. The question is whose side are you on? Do you fight for evil or do you root for good? God decides what’s good and evil. In the end, it’s His opinion that matters. But let’s get back to your second choice because eternity in a lake of fire with the hordes of hell does not sound like a rational option.
Your alternative is to jump aboard the Ark of safety. This Ark of safety is Jesus Christ. Your choice is eternal life in Christ Jesus or you’re going down with the ”second death”. There is no other option, folks. All evil will be banished by God from this beautiful reality He created for us.
So your choice is eternal life through the second birth experience in which you are born again and enter into the Ark of safety and get your name written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. Your life will be safely ”hid in Christ” while this final judgment is made.
God always encourages us to ”choose life” but the choice is yours.

Perhaps the Book of the Prophet Zephaniah is skipped over by some who would rather not hear its proclamations of judgment: judgment on Judah (Zeph 1); judgment on the Gentile nations (Zeph 2:4-15); judgement on Jerusalem (Zeph 3:1-7); judgment on the nations: “All the earth shall be devoured with the fire of My jealousy.” (Zeph [...]

“They don’t know how to cry,” I heard the Spirit whisper. Some of God’s people don’t know how to cry. Maybe that was one of the problems with the Laodicean church. (Revelation 3:14-22) Maybe a preoccupation with material wealth had quenched the Spirit which would have moved them to tears had they recognized their spiritually [...]
