How legitimate are the health mandates of a state which refuses to issue mandates against the slaughter of innocent babies in the womb? How credible is the authority of those who issue such decrees? Hmmm. Whose interest do they truly have first in mind? Their own or that of human beings? If it is the latter, […]

We may well act condemnably Toward those who are condemnable. There really ought be no issue here, But those delicate anti-theists Who despise the rule of Law Can’t stand the notion that there is But one way when Truth be told. “Must there not be at least one other?” They seem to shriek with fear […]

Excrete Biden, abort the Court, honor the Law of God. There really is no better way than God’s way as revealed in His commands, the Big Ten. And the flagrant rejection of them exhibited in the decriminalization of sodomy and abortion is a glowing example of the disdain which our leadership has shown God and His […]

We have, in our culture, an undefined standard of toleration for “opinions.” We use the word almost as a thing sacred, to be respected and deferred to whenever the invocation of the word is heard by disputants. When “Well, that is my opinion!” is asserted, we back off from any assertiveness, lest we be construed […]

(2 Sam 21: 10f.) Rizpah was the daughter of Aiah And Aian was a concubine of Saul. (11) She took a sackcloth and some ashes And she lay right on the ground, Waitin’ around to be found. (10) Well, the news got around to David. He buried those bones in Zela. (14) Put ’em in […]

Well, that is what I said to myself as I walked around town in Wilmington today, as is my daily practice. But that line led to a meditation. (Imagine that!) Yeah, I thought: Indeed, there are folks who are facing a much hotter place than this hot day in August! Mercy! That destination site for […]

It is a great word for us to ponder and to advocate in our present world of Christ-suppression and the consequent floundering in the darkness of Lawlessness. It means, simply, “God inside” of another. A simple, old, Greek word. “Get some the enthusiasm!” we might hear a coach yell as he rallies his team to […]

Got a hitch to my walk; And it ain’t just talk. Got pain with every step! No fun to go out; Can’t sing or shout When those hips are cryin’ Out for mercy! Oh my, oh me Count it one, two, three And I’m done and been set free From the walk and the pain. […]

2 Sam 21 In the days of David there was a great famine And it lasted for three long years So David sought the Lord, said, “Why?” Saul broke a treaty with the Gibeonites (v. 1) So “How?” David asked, “can we make it right?” (3) “We don’t want your money,” said the Gibionites. “We […]
