I don’t know how many times over the years I have been asked who I think Satan really is.

That reminds me of an old Twilight ...read more

Conquerors All

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 8, 2009

We are bored. Feelings shut down because we strive for security and for status, and even for spirituality, but nothing works. Only allegiance to the risen Christ provides fulfillment.

Of all the diseases of our time, the most serious one is boredom. Of all the sicknesses this flesh is heir to, the most fatal is boredom. Not AIDS, not homicide, not heart disease nor cancer, but boredom. Oh, I don’t suppose any mortuary ever tagged a cadaver’s toe with "boredom". I don’t suppose ...read more

A Reflected Glory

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 16, 2016

What is amazing, as Moses came down from the mountain, is that he was unaware that his face was, literally, sending out horns of light (Exodus 34:29).

A REFLECTED GLORY. Exodus 34:29-35. In discussing the nature of the resurrection body, the Apostle Paul comments, ‘There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon’ (1 Corinthians 15:41).

And those at their desks are laughing and cutting up with each other while the teacher might have one student at his/her desk trying to teach that student something.
