    The Path to Jerusalem for Jesus contained His Betrayal, His Arrest and His Persecution. Our lives as Christians will also, in some form or another, contain similar Betrayals, possible confinement and most assuredly persecution. Are you up to it?

    The Way: On Trial John 14:1 "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God ; trust also in me. 2 In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you ...read more

     | 2,633 views

    The minds of politicians generally, and of public/civil servants and advisors, are so scarred by God-rejection, and humanism, and demonic influence, that they are incapable of knowing the mind of God in decency, honesty and moral effectiveness in decision making. Chaos is here.

    CHAOS IN CHAOTIC TIMES – THIS IS OUR WORLD NOW There is a hymn that I hope is still sung despite all the inferior stuff that today passes as church music, and here is the first stanza – God, whose almighty word CHAOS and darkness heard, And took their flight: Hear us, we humbly pray, And where ...read more

And that’s surprising because, of the two of us, Kathleen didn’t want children and I did. I was the one who played with dolls. I was ...read more

    Jesus Christ is at the right hand of God interceeding for us.

    The right hand of God must indeed be a wonderful place to be! When someone is described as being the right hand man of another, it connotes the image of someone who is indispensable, important, reliable, that can be trusted and can deputize for the top man.
