The state of the Church before the Millennial Reign: A point of agreement, He is risen!
As I’ve pointed out in previous writings, no worldview has what can truly be called evidence in the manner that the Christian worldview can boast. You may hear some say that Christianity needs to prove the Bible is true. The Bible itself is evidence of its own truth, written by people who were there or… Continue reading

The state of the Church before the Millennial Reign: Exodus as a template.
I love the more simple symbolism in the book of Genesis because it’s fairly straightforward once you understand how to do it. The book of Exodus is much more complicated when you begin to contemplate the things written about the temple materials to be used, the furnishings and how they were to be built and… Continue reading

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
