The Lord God Jesus is The Word of God (John 1:1-17). The Bible is his words, but He is the Word that became flesh (John 1:14). Words are important because God himself calls Himself the Word. We live in a world that runs on words, communication, and without it there is chaos. The need to share our words, to say what we need to say, to vent, to process out loud makes perfect sense because God Himself is The Word of God. We are made in His image (Genesis 1:26-27), and so we have the need to express ourselves, our desires, our pain, and even pleasure in words. It is designed into us.  The danger of when we repress or suppress our words can be devastating. It can lead to a explosion of emotion at the wrong time, to disease like cancer, and other emotional problems and it can be the door to addictions. So many people seal their lips out of fear or thinking its unnecessary to express what lies in their souls. The truth is we need to share our words, with God in prayer and others, at t

The Roman Catholic Church hordes amounts of priceless art in its Vatican and adorns churches with gold not by the ounce or gram, but pound. For sometime the Papal States have held on to treasure chests that they filled at the high of their power in the Middle Ages.  Like the golden cafe in the wildness (Exodus 32), the Romanite Church places faith in its goblets and artifacts of priceless value. The priests ignore Jesus words, “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” (Matthew 6:19-21), and “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money” (Matthew 6:24)  The golden horde of the Roman Ca

There is a real push to smear the Church in media. A series called “The Handmaiden’s Tale” that envisages a future ruled by a theocracy (Gilead) with women who are breeders and are raped, “ Worldwide infertility has led to the enslavement of fertile women in Gilead determined by the new regime to be "fallen women", citing an extremist interpretation of the Biblical account of Bilhah ; these women often include those who have entered multiple marriages (termed "adulteresses"), single or unmarried mothers, lesbians (homosexuals being termed "gender traitors"), non-Christians, adherents of Christian denominations other than the Sons of Jacob, political dissidents and academics. These women, called Handmaids , are assigned to the homes of the ruling elite, where they must submit to ritualized rape (referred to as "the ceremony") by their male masters ("Commanders") in the presence of their wives, in order to become impregnated and bear

The grave could not hold our Lord Jesus Christ. His rising from the dead proved His Divinity. That He holds power over death and life, that in Him is resurrection power, “Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?” (John 11:25-26).  Resurrection Sunday is the first fruits. Jesus our God and Savior rose, and He promises all who believe in him shall rise from the dead too. In fact, after the Crucifixion and Resurrection of Christ, there was massive raising, “And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook, the rocks split and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. They came out of the tombs after Jesus’ resurrection and went into the holy city and appeared to many pe

Harrowed By His Name Holy Saturday is the day Christ our Lord descended into hades and harrowed hell (1 Peter 3:18-19). It is a time when He preached to the dead who could never have heard the Gospel because they were pre-Incarnation. For us Christians the signifgance of this holiday is that Jesus harrowed all of us from hell, His death on the cross and His blood extinguished the flames. We all have been harrowed by His name. We all deserved damnation, but God in His mercy let The Judgement for sin pour on Christ in our place and if you believe in Him the Hound’s power over you is lost!  Everyone is in the jaws of the Hound, and in his belly are flames eternally. But Christ reached and pried open the mouth of that Hound, using The Cross, Nails in His Hands and Feet, and making a red carpet of His blood that leads out of the jackal’s jaws. He reaches out to pluck us out, but there are many unaware that they are in the Hound’s snare, nor do they perceive Christ offering the

Good Friday is upon us. It is a celebration of what Christ Jesus our Lord did on the cross. Sadly most Protestant Churches neglect this part of Passion Week, focusing on Resurrection Sunday (Easter). The problem is you cannot celebrate “He is Risen,” if you don’t acknowledge “It’s Finished,” and His death for sin. I am alarmed how Good Friday is either omitted or if acknowledged its a dirge and depressing in our Protestant Churches. We are told by the apostle to remember thw Lord’s Death not once a year, but every time we partake of the Lord’s Supper, “For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.” (1 Corinthians 11:26). Sadly due to Eucharistophobia, there are few  Protestant churches except for Lutherans, who practice Communion every week. In fact, even worse many Protestants have apprehensions over Crucifixes, which are simply depictions of Christ’s sacrifice for sin. And yet the apostle Paul said, “So when we preach that Ch

There was a latin saying in Reformation times that read, “Omnia Mutantur Nos Est Mutamur In Ellis,” which translated in anglo read, “Times are changed, we also are changed with them.” These words along Ad Fontes (Back to the Sources) and Five Solas were the battlecry of The Protestant Reformation.  These words were not a pluralist phrase or some liberal theology that condones the church mutating into something anti biblical, rather they encapsulated the idea that times were changing, a wind of reform had come to sweep away Medieval Catholic Superstition and false gospels, and replaced them with a Reformed Church with the True Gospel of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ alone.    I believe Omnia Mutantur Nos Est Mutamur In Ellis is moving again, changes are coming to the Church once more, not theologically, doxiogically and scripturally, but in how the Church functions. For so long an imperium christus (byzantine and medieval church) reigned with its ritual, then came

I wanted to share this song by the talented Avril Lavigne. Her lyrics combined with the visuals encapsulates the feelings this pandemic is exuding. In the video Avril wears a white bridal dress, an allusion to the Bride of Christ, “Then I heard again what sounded like the shout of a vast crowd or the roar of mighty ocean waves or the crash of loud thunder: “Praise the Lord!     For the Lord our God,[b] the Almighty, reigns. 7  Let us be glad and rejoice,     and let us give honor to him. For the time has come for the wedding feast of the Lamb,     and his bride has prepared herself. 8  She has been given the finest of pure white linen to wear.”     For the fine linen represents the good deeds of God’s holy people.” (Revelation 19:6-9). To ensure the imagery is not a coincidence, a silver pectoral cross hangs around Lavin’s neck in the music video as she sings a song like a prayer to God.  In the lyrics are a treasure trove of symbolism and allusions to Scriptur
