Jude 12-13 Empty

Jude 12-13 These people are blemishes at your love feasts, eating with you without the slightest qualm—shepherds who feed only themselves. They are clouds without rain, blown along by the wind; autumn trees, without fruit and uprooted—twice dead. 13 They are wild waves of the sea, foaming up their shame; wandering stars, for whom blackest darknessContinue reading “Jude 12-13 Empty”

Deny – Titus 1:16

Titus 1:16 They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him. They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good. We all know people who claim something for themselves, or about themselves, but it is just a claim with no substance to back it up. I can claim to be theContinue reading “Deny – Titus 1:16”

Plus+ – Galatians 5:6

Galatians 5:6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcisions nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love. How we act reflects what we believe. That’s right! You can tell what someone really believes by the way that live their lives. What we say and what we do canContinue reading “Plus+ – Galatians 5:6”

Stuck and Rubbed – Luke 20:18

Luke 20:18 The teachers of the law and the chief priests looked for a way to arrest him immediately, because they knew he had spoken this parable against them. But they were afraid of the people.

Unwanted Guest – Luke 12:3

Luke 12:3 “What you have said in the dark will be heard in the daylight, and what you have whispered in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed from the roofs.” In the age of Alexa and Echo, we are always being listened to whether we want to admit it or not. OurContinue reading “Unwanted Guest – Luke 12:3”

Unfamiliar Categories – Mark 3:4

Mark 3:4 The Jesus asked the, “Which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they remained silent. Have you ever been in conversation with someone and you were sure that they just weren’t understanding what you are trying to convey? Couples often comeContinue reading “Unfamiliar Categories – Mark 3:4”

Heavy Loads – Matthew 23:4

Matthew 23:4 They tie up heavy, cumbersome loads and put them on other people’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them. We live in a time of almost unprecedented public hypocrisy. And the hypocrisy is not limited to any one party, or any one country. The virtue signalingContinue reading “Heavy Loads – Matthew 23:4”

Selective Hypocrisy – Matthew 27:6

Matthew 27:6 The chief priests picked up the coins and said, “It is against the law to put this into the treasure, since it is blood money.” I am amazed at the level of hypocrisy that is on display today in our world. Leading government officials seem to live under a different set of rulesContinue reading “Selective Hypocrisy – Matthew 27:6”
