    A Christian is to pursue righteousness, which means giving both to men and to God their due; at faith, which means loyalty and reliability which both come from trust in God; at love, which is the utter determination never to seek anything but the highest

    Jesus took all our pains & sufferings to the cross, then what are we complaining about instead of thanking? - Especially since He also showed us how we bore the pain without taking even the analgesic (the vinegar & gall wine) offered?

    “Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name he gave the right to become children of God” (John 1:12) - ‘If we are the children of God, then why do we suffer?’ retorted a friend of mine who is a staunch believer too. Here is a reflection that endeavors ...read more

    How do we understand the wrath of God?

    Introduction… For me, Romans 9 has always been an especially troubling chapter, one I’ve avoided till I saw that it contains a message of hope. Paul appears to be describing God as less than loving. He seems to be teaching a kind of “double predestination”, with God deciding how many people He ...read more

    The Emptiness of Jesus was not only good; it was necessary.

    Emptiness is not usually seen as a good thing.
