    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021
     | 2,067 views

    After World War II there were five army dumps in France full of machinery. It was too good to throw away, and yet not good enough to hall back to the United States. It was a major problem. The Quakers saw an opportunity for service, and so they offered the United States Army 200,000 francs for ...read more

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021
     | 1,463 views

    Every able bodied man in Russia must serve in the army, but Abe managed to remain quietly on his farm year after year. One day his neighbor asked him, "Abe, how does a strong young man like you manage to get by without being drafted for the Red Army?" "That is what I am asking ...read more

     | 4,799 views

    There is really only one question by which we evaluate all of life, and all human activity: Is it pleasing to God?

  • Turning The Other Cheek

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021
     | 1,784 views

    The religious leaders of the world can quote their wise and holy men in ways that show they too have many of the values of the Sermon on the Mount. But they have nothing to match the teachings of Christ on the love of one's enemies.

    Almost everybody agrees with the Sermon on the Mount in general, but almost nobody can agree to the specifics of the last part of chapter 5. Even Nikita Krushev, an atheist, when he was the leader of Russia, could say he agreed with the Sermon on the Mount, for even in Russia they do not consider ...read more

  • Loving Our Enemies

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021
     | 1,763 views

    This means the Christian must love the non-Christian, and even the anti-Christian. He does not need to like them, but he does need to love them.

    Andrew Jackson was the 7th president of the United States and one of the most popular presidents ever. After two terms he left office with greater popularity than when he entered. He is one of the most interesting presidents to study, for the record would indicate that he had no business being ...read more

  • The Reversal Of Revenge

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021
     | 2,495 views

    Revenge may be sweet for awhile, but it turns so bitter that it is never a long range value. This reversal of revenge, however, can add sweetness to life that lasts for time and eternity.

    Aaron Burr could have been a great name in American history. He was elected to the U. S. Senate, and in 1800 he was a candidate for President of the U. S. Thomas Jefferson won that election, and Aaron Burr became Vice President. His future was bright, but then he was insulted by another famous ...read more

  • Simplicity Versus Complexity

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021
     | 1,408 views

    We need to see that the primary problem of the Pharisees was that they were too religious. Some people go bad because of their vices, and others because of their virtues.

    Human nature loves to magnify the minute and give significance to the insignificant by the simple method of stretching the truth. An army cook, for example, feed a mob of men with scrambled eggs, and then he sat down and wrote to his girl friend: "Dearest, for two hours shells have been ...read more

  • The Cause And Cure Of Divorce

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021
     | 1,234 views

    Where lust is in power divorce will rise. Where lust is controlled by love divorce will subside. There is a direct connection between lust control and divorce.

    Jo Fleming in her book His Affair reveals that almost every sinful emotion and action known to man is kindled by lust that is not controlled. Her husband of 26 years went to the apartment of a woman he worked with to return some books. This was an action he could have avoided, but he chose not ...read more

  • The Lure And Cure Of Lust

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021
     | 2,346 views

    It is no wonder the Pharisees wanted Him out of the picture. He just made the majority of the human race murderers by making anger equivalent to murder, and now He makes the majority adulterers by making lust equivalent to adultery.

    Show me the man who has never looked at a woman with lust, and I'll show you a man with a white cane who was blind from birth. None but a blind man could get through life and not be captivated by God's crowning work of creation-woman. Anyone with an ounce of artistic appreciation knows ...read more

  • The Now Life

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021
     | 2,471 views

    The Lord's Prayer in chapter 6 is a now prayer. Give us this day our daily bread. All of its petitions are for now. Hallowed be your name-now. Thy kingdom come now. Thy will be done on earth-now.

    Marguerite Higgins, Pulitzer Prize winner for international reporting, stood by a marine during the Korean War. It was 42 below zero, and the soldier was weary and covered with frozen mud. She asked him, " If I were God and could grant you anything you wished, what would you most like?" ...read more

  • Respect Versus Contempt

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021
     | 1,451 views

    All that is hateful and unloving is to some degree evil. Jesus says we need to be aware of this, and deal with it in its early stages, and so prevent all the serious consequences of thinking that negative attitudes are alright as long as you don't murder anyone.

    Alexander the Great conquered the world, but anger conquered him, and turned him into a murderer. Like so many of the murders of history, it was not intended or designed. It happened because men do not understand that anger is the beginning of murder. Clitus, his best friend, was teasing ...read more

  • Legalism Versus Love

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021
     | 1,030 views

    We are in a world of great religious competition. We will all tend to follow one of these two strategies: The legalistic or the loving, the rule book power, or relationship power.

    We live in a world where competition is a master motive. When the news reach Russia in 1945 that the United States dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Stalin ordered secret scientists to find a way to catch up to the U.S. Andrei Sakharov was only 24 years old then, but his brilliant mind was ...read more

  • The Trivial And The Tremendous

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021
     | 908 views

    As the light of the world, it is the Christians job to help the world see the difference between the truly trivial, and the trivial that can be tremendous.

    On April 18, 1906 San Francisco went through the worst catastrophe of California history.

  • The Law And The Lord

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021
     | 2,582 views

    Christ was the event toward which the whole history of the Old Testament moved. Without the Old Testament we cannot know what it was that He fulfilled, and, therefore, the Old Testament is a vital part of the Christian faith.

    Misunderstanding is a part of life, and much of the laughter of life is due to it. One little guy surprised his whole family one evening at the supper table by asking which virgin was Jesus' mother? Was it the Mary virgin, or the King James Virgin? He had misunderstood one word and was ...read more

  • The Luminous Life

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021
     | 4,485 views

    Jesus has a plan to penetrate this world's night of ignorance with the light of knowledge. The plan is very simple. It is to advertise. Every Christian is to be a living commercial for the Producer of the program of life.

    William Sangster, the great British preacher, tells of one of the strangest taxes ever imposed. He asked his father one day why so many of the homes in London had blocked up windows.
