Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.

The gods are dead

It’s the Greco-Roman gods that are dead. Jesus, however, is trucking quite fine thruout history. “But the Lord is the true God, He is the living God, and an everlasting king: At his wrath the earth shall tremble, And the nations shall not be able to abide his indignation.

Jeremiah 44! Whoa….when you know your on the wrong highway… Let us trust Jesus over whatever god we find appealing even if it be ourselves! God bless… “And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.” – Paul, just before his conversion to trusting in Jesus above all else including himself from Acts 9:5 Paul seemed to be much more successful of a preacher than Jeremiah but succes is never defined by success but rather obedience to God!

Yet still…

We have no master but God. He is before you, and cannot be hidden from you, but to Him you can do no injury. But those whom you regard as masters are only men, and one day they themselves must die. Yet still this community will be undying, for be assured that just in the time of its seeming overthrow it is built up into greater power. For all who witness the noble patience of its martyrs, as struck with misgivings, are inflamed with desire to examine into the matter in question; and as soon as they come to know … Continue reading Yet still…

To tremble or not to tremble

Jeremiah 36 and must read! The whole motive and spirit of Jeremiah’s book is revealed! Some take heed and some don’t but the whole point is: “that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.” (Jeremiah 36:3) and this is sent specifically to Judah in the days of a King of Judah but take note that this is also for “that nations” too! I was praying this morning that I would take God’s Word more seriously because of Isaiah 66:2 and what a chapter to then read! (Not that I don’t but sometimes you can get a little mechanical if … Continue reading To tremble or not to tremble

Not even close to perfectly or as much as He is worth or deserves! Sometimes, you just want to publicly tell others how awesome your wife is! Especially, in front of your kids. I guess I just had a God moment… “We love him, because he first loved us.” – Bible “For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” – Romans 5:7,8 When these truths sink in there is … Continue reading A God moment…

Clement of Alexandria from the late 2nd century in answering the criticism raised by both Greeks and Jews of his day: Since it comes next to reply to the objections alleged against us by Greeks and Jews; and since, in some of the questions previously discussed, the sects also who adhere to other teaching give their help, it will be well first to clear away the obstacles before us, and then, prepared thus for the solution of the difficulties, to advance to the succeeding Miscellany. First, then, they make this objection to us, saying, that they ought not to believe … Continue reading
