Jonathan Edwards and Revival in WJE4

Here’s a good section on revival from my recent Jonathan Edwards reading. The Devil likes to get us to swing from one extreme to the other. This is how JE ends part 4 of The Great Awakening. I don’t know but we shall be in danger by and by, after our eyes are fully opened … Continue reading Jonathan Edwards and Revival in WJE4 →

Honey Jars and 18-Wheelers

Life is made of several defining moments, but often the definition is blurry though real. Primarily, in 2001 I looked beyond the stars and asked for forgiveness. I didn’t hear or see anything, but Jesus has been with me since that night. I’ve returned to the home where my mother was murdered and heard the … Continue reading Honey Jars and 18-Wheelers →

For Mike Heiser, he now sees the Unseen Realm

Someone who could speak both to the academics and the laymen, someone who could teach churchmen and fringe folk, someone that became all things to all people that some might be saved.

She eventually said yes that she would babysit 6-month-old Tony—only God … Continue reading “You know I can’t babysit another child.” →

Some Little Bytes in a Big Kingdom

Computer can be used for evil. Computer can be used for good. Whether at The Grammy’s or at Gethsemane, it can be an audio-visual tool that directs a performance and researches symbols or it can edit a service and research the Scriptures. And as I pray “thy kingdom come” and read the books such as … Continue reading Some Little Bytes in a Big Kingdom →

Spur of the Moment NT Summary

This is how well I want to be familiar with the contents of the Bible. I missed hitting record for the first few books of the answer to this question, and he stops before he gets to the book of Philippians, but what is stopping us from knowing the word like we know football stats, … Continue reading Spur of the Moment NT Summary →

I believe; help my unbelief!

Amen and amen. True faith is always aware how small and inadequate it is. The father becomes a believer not when he amasses a sufficient quantum of faith but when he risks everything on what little faith he has, when he yields his insufficiency to the true sufficiency of Jesus, “ ‘I do believe; help me … Continue reading I believe; help my unbelief! →
