    Sure, Noah behaves badly. He gets drunk and naked in his tent. He fails his family. He fails God in that he’s way out of control. But remember it is Ham’s disrespect, not Noah’s failures that feature in this story.

    Genesis 9 – Part 6 – ARE MY KIDS CURSED WHEN I CRITICISE MY PARENTS? What grandfather would curse his grandson? Especially since the bone he had to pick was with his son, not his grandson. And the horrible thing is that God seems to go along with the curse! History shows that ...read more

    Blaspheming the Spirit - To talk or act in a reviling manner to one who is sacred. To talk in a depreciatory manner about the Spirit of God is the unforgiveable sin because it is ascribing to Satan the work of the Holy Spirit.

I’m not sure, but its possible that you might be puzzled as to Why your SERVICE ultimately SET YOU UP for FAILURE? I can’t be absolutely certain, I have a sneaking suspicion ...read more
