  • Hell, Its Nature and Neighbors

    We all like to think of heaven. That's understandable; it's where we all want to spend eternity. But, in the midst of our thoughts of heaven, we should not forget about another prepared place - hell. What will hell be like? Will people in hell remember anything of the past? Will hell be for all eternity? Wo will be in hell?

  • Identified By Your Walk

    Can you think of someone whose walk is so

    unique he, or she, can be identified by the way they walk? Think of John Wayne
    as he walks down the street in an old Western movie.  Can you be identified by your walk?

  • Press On!

    “Man who is born of woman is of few days and full of trouble.”  Job 14:1. No truer words were ever spoken. 

    Life can certainly be difficult at times.  Even Christians are not exempt from difficulties.  Sometimes a person may even face difficulty because he is a Christian.

    What would God have us to do in the midst of our troubles?  Stay the course and press on!  Be faithful

    always! It’s helpful to remember what Paul had to say, recorded in II Corinthians 4:16-18. “Therefore, we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light
    affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are
    temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.”

  • The Water Cycle, Further Proof of the Bible's Inspiration

    One of the proofs of the

    Bible’s inspiration is its scientific foreknowledge.  That is, the Bible, with great accuracy,
    commonly speaks of scientific facts that were not known to man at the time it
    was written. 

    The Mississippi River

    dumps in excess of 6 million gallons of water into the Gulf of Mexico every
    second.  Once it reaches the ocean, the
    water evaporates.  Water returns to the
    land in the form of clouds and then precipitation. 

    The idea of a complete

    water cycle was not fully understood until the sixteenth and seventeenth
    centuries.  Long before man discovered
    the water cycle, Solomon wrote, “All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea
    is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return
    again” (Ecclesiastes 1:7).

  • The Bible's Indestructibility, Proof of Inspiration

    One of the great proofs

    of the Bible’s inspiration is its indestructibility.  Voltaire, a French writer and philosopher who
    lived from 1694-1778, once said that in 100 years there will not be a Bible
    left on earth.  Two hundred years later,
    Voltaire’s own writings sold for a mere 11 cents.  After Voltaire died, his printing press was
    used to print Bibles.  His house was used
    by the Geneva Bible Society to store Bibles.

    Men have done everything

    they could over the years to eliminate the Bible from society.  They have burned it in flames, banned it from
    being sold and barred it from being read. 
    Yet the Bible still stands its ground.

  • Mindful of the Destination

    I recently traveled several hundred miles to visit family. It was a good trip with no real problems along the way.  But admittedly, there were portions of the trip that might test a person's patience. Heavy traffic through a large city, moving at a slow pace and lengthening the trip.  Cars traveling close together at 75-80 miles per hour for nearly a 100 mile stretch,

    Why would I make such a trip and endure those "trying" portions of the journey?  The answer is simple - I was mindful of the destination and the joy that would be experienced when finally together with those I loved.Isn't life like that?  Life has its ups and downs, it's potholes and congested traffic.  I'm speaking figuratively, of course.  But why do we endure those trying times of life and keep plodding along?  We're mindful of the destination.  We're mindful of the joy that will be experienced when we are finally with God and all His people!
