As we make New Year resolutions, I want to call your attention to a text that you will find in Genesis chapter 7:1 “Then the Lord said to Noah, “Come into the ark, you and all your household, because I have seen that you are righteous before Me in this generation.” Many people have questioned whether the flood was a real event and whether it … [Read more...]
Eternity in our Hearts
He has made everything beautiful in its time. He also has planted eternity in men’s hearts and minds a divinely implanted sense of a purpose working through the ages which nothing under the sun but God alone can satisfy, yet so that men cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. (Ecclesiastes 3:11 AMP) I don’t usually make … [Read more...]
A-World-Without-Skills
A fascinating piece appeared in The Wall Street Journal concerning the skill levels of new hires. Or, rather, the lack of skills, even in fields such as engineering. Firms are taking in new graduates only to discover that while they might know much, they can’t actually do anything, not even basic things that every engineer is supposed to know. … [Read more...]
Face to Face With The Suffering Servant
In her book Treasures in Dark Places, Leanna Cinquanta shares a powerful, haunting story of an encounter she had with Jesus Christ. It’s worth recounting here because she came face to face with the suffering Messiah so clearly revealed to us in the prophecy of the suffering servant described in Isaiah 53: Face-to-Face A new year had begun—1986. … [Read more...]
The Inspiring Story of A Girl Without A Country
Back in 1921, a missionary couple named David and Svea Flood went with their two-year-old son from Sweden to the heart of Africa—to what was then called the Belgian Congo.

Messianic Prophecies
Every year at Christmas we are reminded of the remarkable prophecies concerning the birth death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, and how they substantiate His deity and the faithfulness of God. We’ve established here, here, here, and here that more than 2500 years ago, the prophets Jeremiah, Isaiah, Daniel, Ezekiel and others like them foretold … [Read more...]
Wonderful Description of Christ
Christ is our King, Advocate, Redeemer, Propitiation, Judge, Healer, Sorrow-bearer, Wisdom, Sanctification, Redemption, Prophet, High priest, Bread of Life, Water of life, Bridegroom, Strength, Keeper, Friend, Hope, Salvation, and Passover. He is not only all these things that I have mentioned: He is also our Mediator, our Sanctifier, our … [Read more...]
The Tutsi and Jewish Heritage
In Rwanda, Uganda or anywhere in the Great Lakes region ‘Jewish’ has mysteriously ended up becoming shorthand for ‘Tutsi’ and these people consider themselves to be Jews/Hebrews who came from Ethiopia (Cush). It’s really troubling, deceptive and hypocritical for these guys who call themselves the blood brothers of the Jewish Jesus to practice … [Read more...]
