World View; June 5, 2026
James 4:10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up. I quote verse 7 of this chapter with great frequency, but this verse too is justly famous. It is completely counter to the way the world thinks … Continue reading

One God; May 24, 2026
1 Timothy 2:5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus. This statement by Paul matches perfectly the statement by Jesus Himself: “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father … Continue reading

Common Sense; April 15, 2026
Luke 13:17 When he said this, all his opponents were humiliated, but the people were delighted with all the wonderful things he was doing. It’s amazing how uncommon “common sense” actually is! We get caught in our accustomed thought patterns, conditioned … Continue reading

Witnesses; April 9, 2026
Acts 1:8 “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” This verse has been ingrained in my memory … Continue reading
Perception; March 19, 2026
Matthew 28:9 Suddenly Jesus met them. “Greetings,” he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him. Matthew gets the story slightly scrambled, but he does have Mary Magdalene grabbing Jesus’ feet. John, in chapter 20, gives a bit more … Continue reading

Humility and Pride; March 18, 2026
Matthew 26:22 They were very sad and began to say to him one after the other, “Surely you don’t mean me, Lord?” It strikes me that by this time, the disciples had been with Jesus long enough to know two … Continue reading

Status; March 16, 2026
Matthew 23:12 “For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” It’s interesting how much trouble we have following what Jesus says here. The Catholic practice of addressing priests as Father is in … Continue reading

Authority; March 14, 2026
Matthew 21:23 Jesus entered the temple courts, and, while he was teaching, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him. “By what authority are you doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave you this authority?” Authority … Continue reading
