Have you found yourself swayed by smooth words, awesome arguments, and maybe a life experience that caused you to lose sight of your belief?  It can easily happen.  A basic human characteristic is the need to be accepted by others, which in turn, can cause a bending of our will to conform.  While trying to…

Most everyone loves to be right.  It can verify our position as an authority while establishing our role as valid.  With all of us needing a bit of confidence, being right is not always a bad thing.  But what if we aren’t right while thinking we are?  Would you be willing to change your course? …

This week’s study of Devarim not only embraces words from Moses but also includes prophetic writings from Isaiah as well as letters from the Apostle Paul in the Book of Acts and the First Letter to Timothy.  Is there a common thread between them when it comes to “matters?”  The message given to me when…

Have you ever recounted your journey with Yahweh?  If you are like most, I would say you might be tempted to recall the doubts and mistakes you had along the way.  This week in Numbers chapter thirty-three, we can read the recordings of Israel’s trek across the wilderness as they fled the land of bondage…

Have you ever met a person who is a seeker of truth? Over the years, I have been fortunate enough to meet such people.  In meeting them, I sense their deep desire to find something real . . . something different from what this world has to offer.  Amid a culture, where answers seem to…

Are the kings of this earth a reflection of ourselves?  Are “we the people” the ones being held accountable for current world events? We read in Daniel 2:21: “And it is He (YHWH) who changes the times and the epochs, He removes kings and establishes kings.” If this is true, is there any reason to…

The world’s tallest statute is a 600-foot homage to Patel, a man who “unified” India.  He was a “champion” in gaining India’s independence from Britain and is credited with uniting 565 governing states in India.  Yet, under so-called unity, India is well known for its caste system, subjecting its lower class to the highest rate…

This week, I became keenly aware of publicly stated comments that a particular group, sect, or yes, even certain people should be followed due to their vast wisdom or stated authority.  But is this really true?  From my perspective, I don’t believe so:  “For all have sinned had have fallen short of the glory of…
