Grace - Amazing or Mundane

O mundane grace, how dull the sound,
Useless to one like me.
I am not lost, don’t need t’be found,
I’m good, why can’t you see?

What’s grace, and why do I need it?
God knows my heart is pure.
He loves me just the way I am,
And my salvation’s sure.

Though I may [...]

Paper-thin Bible Study

John 3:16 - A Verb Study

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” – John 3:16

A very long time ago, when I worked for the Kent State University Museum, I saw a piece of artwork at the Canton Museum of Art. It was called, “Concerned With Many Issues.” I wanted to find a photo of it online to share with you, but had no success finding any reference to it. [...]

Various Quotatious

Some wonderful quotations from some Godly men:

When you see that saving faith is a being satisfied in all that God is for you in Jesus, then the good fight of faith (as Paul calls it in 1 Timothy 6:12) becomes a fight for JOY! A fight for Joy in Christ, not television. [...]

Hume tells Tiger to Turn

Brit Hume, the senior political analyst for Fox News and a regular panelist on Fox News Sunday had the audacity to express an opinion during the opinion portion of the January 3, 2010 show. See for yourself.

Dear Timothy

2 Timothy 2:24-26 – 24 The Lord’s bond-servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, patient when wronged, 25 with gentleness correcting those who are in opposition, if perhaps God may grant them repentance leading to the knowledge of the truth, 26 and they may come to their senses and [...]

Thankfulness

I’m now winding down now from a long day at my in-laws and feeling very thankful to be home with my family. We are watching the Disney movie Cars and I am contemplating another piece of pumpkin pie.

In Tabletalk magazine today, the scripture reading was Ephesians 2:1-10 and I’ve reproduced it below with a change [...]
