Some favorite Truths…
1 Pet 4:12 Since therefore Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same way of thinking, for whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, so as to live for the rest of the time in the flesh no longer for human passions but for the will of God.
Gal 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
1 Thes 5:16-18 Rejoice always, pray without ceasing,
give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.Jer 9:23-24 Thus says the Lord: “Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might, let not the rich man boast in his riches, but let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows me, that I am the Lord who practices steadfast love, justice, and righteousness in the earth. For in these things I delight, declares the Lord.”
Prov 9:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight.

Dream-prayers …dream big. Get Wisdom
This morning two prayers converged before me. I was reading in 1 Kings ch3, where Solomon prays to the Lord in a dream at night. As I read these verses, I began to pray that God would bless me in … Continue reading
A Minister’s Strength (…passed along)

a John Piper from the past…

Was it possible for Jesus to sin?
I love getting clarity on truths that I haven’t properly thought through. This question might have gotten a right answer from me, but I would not have been as helpful with the explanation that John Piper provides here. It’s really … Continue reading
Men… get off your duff!
Ok… I’m going back to the future. (who knew that Michael J Fox’s role in this Back to the Future trilogy would be so useful for the moment in our dialogue about life in America) I went back this evening … Continue reading
Worship – Spirit and Truth
I couldn’t help but post my ‘Rueling elder’s sermon from this past sunday. I think it was his first… to my knowledge anyway, though he has been ‘preaching’ to the youth for quite some time. This sunday was maybe just … Continue reading
