Now Unto The King Eternal.

This is particularly pertinent in my own country at this time, with the announcement of the end of our Queen’s 70 year reign: ‘The Queen is dead. Long live the King.’

DOXOLOGY. 1 Timothy 1:17.

The Ecstasy Before The Agony

Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 23, 2024

Religious excitement does not necessarily translate into spiritual worship. Rather, the one following Jesus must guard against being turned aside by that which appears good. Remember that good is enemy of the best.

Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!’ And Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, just ...read more
