By Paul The other day I had a customer (RV Sales) who I engaged in a long conversation with regarding spiritual things. This happens frequently instead of selling a product (I sidetrack easily). She came from an Adventist perspective but not necessarily hardcore. She shared of a recent conversation with a Mormon friend in which they had agreed to leave […]
What If We’re NOT Crazy??
Not being all that dumb, I know that not everything I say about the times we live in is popular. I referred to some likely reactions in my last post, but here is a question I’d like you to answer for yourself. What if the things that I, as well as some others have been openly warning about, really are […]
Tribute to David Wilkerson
Thoughts by Paul: While it’s never my style to heap praise on an individual, I do want to acknowledge a great man of God when warranted. Even though there were times I really didn’t agree with his harshness or viewpoint, if anyone in recent times fits the description of a ‘prophet’, he did in my mind anyway. He went against the […]
SPECIAL: DAVID WILKERSON’S DEATH AND LEGACY
Hi All: Many of you may not have heard, but well known Pastor David Wilkerson was killed yesterday in a head-on collision. I don’t know how many of you know who he is, but he was the man that wrote the book “Cross & Switchblade” several decades ago now. Well known former gang leader in New York, Nicky Cruz became […]
So How Should We Then Live, Part 3
Part 3 Continued from Part 2… As I look out the windows of my home this morning, I see sunshine, blue skies and hardly a cloud in sight. The Cascade Mountain Range is a brilliant sparkling white. From my little house, by using all of the windows, I can see 9 or 10 mountains of this gorgeous range—5 of them […]
So How Then Should We Then Live? Part 2 (Church of Sardis & Moneychangers, & Us)
When I look at all of the posts that I have lined up, some in process, others not started yet, I find that I can’t do any of the things that I’d really like to do before I write some other things that God has brought to my mind recently. What I am hearing from the Almighty is that if […]
So How Should We Then Live? Part 1
I have found myself doing a lot of thinking in the last few days as I watch the news, as I read comments made by some of my favorite websites, and see how the news sounds like it comes right out of things written thousands of years ago in the Bible. In between trying to take care of some of […]
What Is It That God Wants Out Of Me Anyway? Part 3
Continued from Part 2 For some that have read the first two posts, maybe you are bothered because some of it seems so condemning—especially since much of it is speaking to Christian people. Like I’ve said many times already, there is no intention to minimize the grace that God has gifted us with. My purpose is to help us see […]
What is it that God Wants out of Me Anyway? Part 2
Continued from Part 1… I have watched several more days of news and if I ever get time to put a bunch of them together, some may be amazed at the convergence of things that the world is beginning to experience. As I went to bed last night, I was reading a book like I usually do. I usually only […]
What Is It That God Wants Out Of Me, Anyway? Part 1
When one reads a cross-section of articles or posts written by Christian people across the land, you can get pretty much every flavor of thought and of course doctrinal position on a myriad of issues. When it comes to the subject of the troublesome time that we have moved into, it is the same. It is amazing how polarized people […]
