Following the broad sweep of history and answering the questions: What is true? What is important? What, now, shall we do?
Divine Direction 5: Man Plans
Listen up. Man plans and God laughs. "The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps." Proverbs 16:9 ESV
Divine Direction 4: Defy Explanation
“The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you.” Luke 1:35 The late Dr. Adrian Rogers once challenged a large gathering with these words: “We have no right to be believed so long as we can be explained.” Most of our lives are...
Divine Direction 3: Diligence
The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty. Proverbs 21:5 ESV
Divine Direction 2: Wise Counsel
Without counsel plans fail, but with many advisors they succeed. Proverbs 15:22 But not just any advisors. We need to search for godly counsel, and seek alignment with God's Word and Will.
Divine Direction 1: God, The Guide Of His Saints
Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory. Psalm 73:24 KJV Man is not intended for earth. He is only a pilgrim through it to eternal happiness. This he seeks for, but to gain it man needs a guide. And this guide must be well chosen. The...
Scruton On Marxism
"Like every primitive religion, Marxism (government as god) is haunted by imaginary devils. 'Capitalism', 'imperialism', 'deviationism', 'revisionism', 'infantile leftism', 'fascism.' Everywhere in the path of the Marxist lie dark and inscrutable enemies." Adapted,...
Drained?
The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul. The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple. Psalm 19:7 Do you sometimes wake up and realize you’re just totally depleted? Physically, emotionally, spiritually? I certainly do. And when I examine...
Totalitarianism And The Human Condition
We are in a series on totalitarianism. Political and human chaos seem to be on the rise, not just in one geographic region, but globally. Why is this? Unless the human mind can explain and make sense of it, it will, as a self-protective, block it out. So we seek to...
Scruton on Totalitarianism
"It is not the truth of Marxism that explains the willingness of intellectuals to believe it, but the power that it confers on intellectuals in their attempts to control the world. And since… it is futile to reason someone out of a thing that he was not reasoned into,...
The End Is Nigh. Or Not.
For that day will not come until there is a great rebellion against God. 2 Thessalonians 2:3 NLT Paul is telling the church at Thessalonica that one of the early warning signs of Christ's return will be a great falling away (rebellion, apostasy) from The Faith. From...
Totalitarianism, Continued
In June of 1949, George Orwell (1903 - 1950), a British author, published his soon to become classic, Nineteen Eighty Four (sometimes ‘1984’). The novel described a totalitarian future where the population has been brainwashed into obedience to Big Brother. Control is...
The Arc Of The Present Moment (Note 1)
All totalitarian movements (including, but not limited to, Marxism, Neo-Marxism, Socialism, Neo-Socialism, Democratic Socialism (a figment), The World Economic Forum (WEF), and simple run-of-the-mill dictatorships) require an external enemy. In America at the moment,...
The Foolishness of Pride
Think again, you fools! When will you finally catch on? Do you suppose the God who makes ears is deaf? That the one who formed your eyes is blind? He punishes the nations. He knows everything; doesn’t He also know what you are doing? Won’t He also punish you? The Lord...
It’s Sabbath
Come. Let us make a holy commotion unto The Lord.
Foolishness
Think again, you fools! When will you finally catch on? Do you suppose the God who makes ears is deaf? That the one who formed your eyes is blind? He punishes the nations. He knows everything. Doesn’t he also know what you are doing? Won’t he also punish you? The Lord...
The Fullness of Christ
Watch out for people who try to dazzle you with big words and intellectual double-talk. They want to drag you off into endless arguments that never amount to anything. They spread their ideas through the empty traditions of human beings and hollow superstitions of...
Ready?
"Be ready at any time to give a defense to anyone who asks you for the reason for the hope that is in you." 1 Peter 3:15. Whether you stand before the council (Acts 4) or the gates of Hell, it will be insufficient to simply wave the Book of the Word before the enemy....
Heads Up
This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it.
