As a kid I was a comic book junkie. I started out with Superman and Batman, and couldn’t get enough. When my mother held me to three comics per week, that’s what I brought home each Sunday – plus a couple more hidden under […]

Joel Osteen
I have inside word that Joel Osteen is under stress. It seems a woman has been stalking him in one manner or another. While precautions have been taken, these things can take their toll. Even Jesus found it necessary – and increasingly difficult – […]
“Birth control” –and abortion – for all, underwritten by all, like it or not
In the latest depredation by the Obama administration, Health and Human Services is proposing radical new regulations that would require private insurers – even those covering religious institutions such as churches, schools and hospitals – to fund contraceptive services with no charge or co-pay […]
Facebook Apps Allowing Access to Numbers, Addresses
Today comes news (see excerpt and link below) of yet another depredation of privacy, again from the leader in that field, Facebook. Facebook will now open personal information, such as addresses and even mobile phone numbers, to its apps. Previous to this it was […]
An answer to invasive searches
The problem of identifying terrorists has become much more subtle than we once thought it to be, and our methodology of dealing with the problem is pathetically inadequate. There is not a machine or a manual inspection technique possible that will detect the explosive delivery methods that are already extant or that are coming soon. Yet the authorities continue to place all their trust in such inspection mechanisms.
Another chance for America, another chance for the church
Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. -Prov 16:18 And so it’s true, pride comes before a fall; I’m telling you, so that you don’t lose all. – John Lennon, “I’m a loser”, 1965 Yesterday, America gave the Democrats an historic drubbing. […]
Taking back America
This has already gone viral, and for good reason. Christie has done an amazing job facing down deeply entrenched special interests that are destroying our nation from within. I am glad that some people have the specific calling to the governmental realm, and are […]
Out of the comfort zone, and on to victory
Out of weakness were made strong – Heb 11.34 Blessed be the Lord, my rock, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle –Ps144.1 The story of Gideon gives us a vivid biblical illustration of how the Lord can raise up […]
The seduction of a nation
Yesterday I watched video of Bill Clinton stumping for Maurice Hinchey, one of the most odious characters in a Congress that has quite a few. Clinton was heckled, and he took control of the situation by bragging on his four balanced budgets as president. […]
Free Internet Parental Controls
I’d like to make some of you aware of a free way to implement “parental controls” on your computers. (I used quotes there because the Internet has so many pitfalls that I’ve found this useful for myself.) I have no connection to the service […]
No American
Folks, elections matter. This November's is only a midterm, but it is critically important. Because we have been given responsibility, we will be held accountable for how we vote. So much is at stake. Use discernment. Pray it through. Don't vote for the ones who make big promises. Their promises are empty. Vote for the ones who will work to get the nation back to its historical moral and spiritual foundations. That's the only true road to unity and healing.
The fleecing of a nation
Some think that God has no place in politics. But the Bible tells us that we are not to be overcome by evil. Cynicism must not rule us. We are to watch and pray and to occupy until the Master returns. We are to be faithful in “unrighteous riches”. We are to expose evil, rejoice in truth, and overcome evil with good.
Christianity’s radical growth
There's an excellent article today by Ryan Mauro on the comparative growth rates of Christianity and Islam, and also on the quality of the faith of those who believe. If you live in the West you're probably under the impression that Islam is growing by leaps and bounds. It is - in the West, because of immigration and high birth rates, but that is not the case in the rest of the world.
Jesus Insists On Full Salvation
There’s a well known story in the Bible, about a woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years. She came to Jesus from behind, secretly touched the hem of His garment, and was healed. It seems like a simple story, but there’s […]
