[311]. A MESSAGE FROM A POEM - THOUGHTS – PRECIOUS ONES FROM HEBREWS
This poem contains many references to verses in Hebrews. The book of Hebrews was written to Jews and that is why it has so many images of the Levitical priesthood and sacrifices. It was written by Paul and would be in line

“Why the Dead Sea?”
We have heard of dead people, dead beasts, dead trees and dead flowers, but is there such a thing as a dead sea? There is and they call it dead because it receives all and gives nothing. This body of water – the most remarkable in the world – is at the southern end of the

Do you remember the story of Beauty and the Beast? Of course, you do. There was a time when the Beast’s face was handsome and his palace pleasant. But that was before the curse—before the shadow fell across the castle of the prince. And when the darkness fell, he hid. Secluded in his castle, he was

Mary was far from home, far from her family, and far from what she expected that first birth to be. But the whole setting for the child’s birth was apart of an elaborate plan to provide access for lost humanity into God’s family. Why did God experience such a humble birth?
He became poor so we

[314]. A MESSAGE FROM A POEM - THOUGHTS FROM PSALM 1
Psalm 1 is a most important Psalm as it is the gateway to the Psalms. It draws the lines. The righteous and wicked are what the Psalms deal with, and that is underpinned by Psalm 1.
The Psalm is a wonder in creation. It is simple yet

DEAD TO GARLIC
The problem is we are so accustomed to sin we do not recognize it's gravity.
I once read the news account of the two Lake Worth, Florida, high school boys. They were suspended from school because they ate so much garlic that no one could stand to have them around. They had read

[037] A MESSAGE FROM A POEM – CALVARY – GOLGOTHA’S SKULL
What does Calvary mean to you? To most people it means nothing except a casual thought at Easter perhaps.
May we ask what does Calvary mean to a Christian? Here the answers are many and most of them would be simplistic which is fine.

[241]. A MESSAGE FROM A POEM – SOME THOUGHTS FROM EPHESIANS 1
Ephesians is the most doctrinal book in the New Testament along with Romans. There is so much in Ephesians that it is a gold mine with more and more veins the further down you go. In this poem I took some of the marvellous teaching

It was F.B. Meyer, I believe, who once said that when we see a brother or sister in sin, there are three things we do not know:
First, we do not know how hard he or she tried not to sin.
And second, we do not know the power of the forces that assailed him or her.
We also do not

From Wm. Barclay’s commentary: One of the great stories of the Christian Church is that of Telemachus. He was a hermit of the desert, but the call of God told him he must go to Rome. Rome was nominally Christian, but still the gladiatorial games went on. Men fought with other and crowds roared with

2 Corinthians 7:1,“Let us cleanse ourselves” - that means we would do a good job if we were just as fond of straightening our own selves out as we are to find the faults of others. It is God’s Holy Spirit that will do the work but we must enter in to an active cooperation with God on this matter.
