Steps Toward Hypocrisy

I do not like cranberries, I never have, and I never will. If they are offered to me in heaven, I will politely turn them down, because even in my glorified body my taste buds will still be individually mine. My lovely wife has only four words for coffee, “Smells bad, tastes bad.” She will probably not drink coffee in eternity either. “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” (Romans 12:2) The renewing of our mind is the way we think about sin, in ourselves and in others, it is what causes us to understand that those items, those things that we cannot comprehend in others does not mean that we cannot have compassion for them, for they are still of the world, the world

Childish Or Childlike

“And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.” (Matt. 18:3)  “When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.” (1st Cor. 13:11) Which one is it then, childish or childlike? I personally believe that every wicked person on this planet behaves in a childish manner, for the Almighty’s eternal power and godhead is clearly known by them, yet they attempt to usurp His power by maintaining a life of pride, of self-centeredness and self-gratification. Exhibiting a childish attitude in the presence of the King is not a wise thing to do my friends, not only is it self-demeaning, but it is not an action desired by the King. Those who have

Wise As Serpents

It’s really quite simple and easy, all you need to do is touch an emotional nerve ending, and it really does not matter which one. Very few people are willing to engage in in-depth logical discussions based upon deductive reasoning skills, and, in no offensive way, many of those who are not willing to are those who are incapable of doing so. But touch that nerve, that emotion, and they will almost inevitably respond. It matters not if it is jealousy, lust, joy, envy, happiness, pick any emotion and you will have their attention. “To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.” (1st Cor. 9:22) To be able to fulfill that verse in yourself you must become a student of three different courses, mankind, our adversary, and the Word

Why Some Will Not Read These Letters

I personally believe that one of the reasons that these Letters of Truth do not receive numerous views is because of that word and its implications in the title, they are truth, and although people have a tendency to search out truth in certain things, especially in others, within themselves they tend to shy away from it. Even though truth is absolute, when we see it within ourselves most generally one of two things will happen, pride will cause humility to vanish, or regrets will bring with it a form of despondency, almost hatred of ourself. Absolute truth my friends can only be altered in the mind, and when it becomes subjective, relative, it therefore is no longer truth.  I bring this example to your thoughts today in relation to the opening statement of this letter and why, in part, some of them receive so few views. It has to
