    A FALSE WITNESS THAT SPEAKS LIES “A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who breathes out lies will not escape” (Proverbs 19:5) The lying tongue tells lies, but the false witness does worse: he can tell the truth, but in the absence of ...read more

    Simeon is an old man who is described as “righteous and devout.” What fascinates me about him is his expectancy to see the Christ based entirely on the promise given to him by the Holy Spirit.

    This is, I believe, a balanced look at the Harry Potter phenomenon, acknowledging that Christians have supported and opposed it. But beyond that, this message looks at what Jesus might have to say to Harry, if Harry were a real person.
