The state of the Church before the Millennial Reign, continued.
In the last writing I wrote of much of the church not giving proper due to the Old Testament, with some leaders actually calling for getting rid of the Old Testament and others treating it as something irrelevant to our lives. Just dusty old history with basically everything pointing only to Christ therefore it has… Continue reading

Law, justice, governance and the Millennial Reign: wake up to find out how precious and rare we all are.
This past week I saw a clip of Elon Musk at the World Economic Forum refer to humanity as lone candle of consciousness in the universe . In terms of biological life, I have believed this for a long time based more on my study of biology than scripture . The most exclusionary statement that… Continue reading

Law, justice, governance and the Millennial Reign: Why worldview matters in governance.
A question that I have asked others in debate about what constitutes legitimate governance is this: “If you are not going to govern by moral concerns, then what are you governing by?” It’s not a rhetorical question, but it never gets answered. I think what most people think I mean are questions of sexuality, but… Continue reading

Law, justice, governance and the Millennial Reign: a small but powerful worldview.
When I say small, it doesn’t mean that it doesn’t have numbers. The worldview I’m writing about today is satanism. There are adherents who are truly satanists and there are de facto adherents, atheists. If you examine Islam, you will find they are also de facto adherents. One of satanisms main features is the fracturing… Continue reading

Law , justice, governance and the Millennial Reign: The question to be answered.
When I was going out before the “pandemic” to evangelize directly to people, I would treat it as interview with the person that I was speaking to. I would always open with the same question, one that most people don’t like to even think about, much less talk to a stranger about. And that question… Continue reading

Law, justice, governance and the Millennial Reign: Does truth matter to anyone?
Probably the most vexing part of living in this age for me is how many people are willing to say and believe provable lies. In this particular series of writings it’s been hard to know when to pivot to different areas contributing to the same problems. In my mind, all false worldviews have or will… Continue reading

Law, justice, governance and the Millennial Reign: A lesson learned from King Arthur of Camelot.
A line from a movie that has spurred a lot of thought for me and captures the essence of good governance. In a scene from the movie “First Knight”. King Arthur has invited one of his previous knights, Malagant, to a meeting. Malagant sought kingship for himself and broke ranks with Arthur to do so.… Continue reading

Law, justice, governance and the Millennial Reign: Useful and useless fear.
Proverbs 1:7 states that, “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.” Proverbs 9:10-12 says, “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.For through wisdom your days will be many,and years will be added to your life.If… Continue reading

Law, justice, governance and the Millennial Reign: The erosion of need.
This past week violence erupted once again and ended the physical life of Charlie Kirk. In so many ways, it highlights the distinctness of what the two sides are willing to do for what they want and the motivation for doing so. And make no mistake, there are only two sides in this spiritual battle.… Continue reading

Law, justice, governance and the Millennial Reign: the weird thing about traffic signals.
Recently I was on my way to picking up an employee leaving MacDonalds in the early morning hours and as I was approaching their parking lot, I began to get into the turn lane. Just in the nick of time, I noticed that a curbed intrusion had been placed in that turn lane just before… Continue reading
