The Word of GOD reveals to us the truth, which is the light that illuminates all things in the heavens... Continue Reading →
Correctly Addressing the Sorrow of Woman
I think the popular religious interpretation of "sorrow" as described in Genesis 3:16 is off the mark. People speak of the sorrow that Eve was cursed with as physical pain, but this sorrow speaks to emotional grief and strain which is painful to the heart and soul. The same word is used in reference to... Continue Reading →
Love Cascading From Heaven
What is the age at which children outgrow compassion and empathy? I find many people have soft hearts for children in dire circumstances as they are seen as not responsible for the conditions surrounding their lives. However, adults are often not the beneficiaries of such grace flowing soft hearts. They are met with assumptions of... Continue Reading →
We Can Burn As the Sun
In those first moments of clarity after YAHWEH had brought Adam and Eve together, they were naked before each other in the presence of light and were unashamed. The reason they were unashamed was not due to them having perfect bodies, there were no other bodies around for comparison. That line of thought takes us... Continue Reading →

Churches today hide in the safe harbor of the “Separation of Church and State,” as it is wrongfully understood and enforced. It is a popular hiding place for Christians seeking... Continue Reading →

Erecting Lamp Post
I want to share a beautiful block of scripture which I meditated in recently. Sitting with this scripture was like sitting near a fragrant candle which gives off light and a sweet aroma. 7 The way of the just is uprightness;O Most Upright,You weigh the path of the just.8 Yes, in the way of Your judgments,O Lord, we have waited for You;The desire...

Giving the Gift of Forgiveness
Forgiveness is passing on the grace we received on the cross of Christ, understanding that Christ died for us all while we were yet lost in sin. Understand that sin is all anti-Love behavior. GOD is love, so sin is anti-GOD. Christ gave His life for us while we were yet against Him. GOD through... Continue Reading →
