Why does God refer to himself as I AM?
In the book of John chapter 8, Jesus was speaking to a group of Pharisees. At one point during the conversation, the subject of Abraham was brought up. Jesus declared to them. “Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.” At this saying they took up rocks to stone him. In Exodus, …
Peace, Be Still !
Mark 4: 39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. Jesus commanded the wind and the waves to be at peace, and they had to obey him! He also wants us to be at peace. Many …
What is the will of God?
The Lord’s prayer has included in it the verse, “thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” But how can we be certain what God’s will is? When Jesus prayed that the Father’s will be done on earth as in heaven, he was proclaiming the kingdom of God. In God’s kingdom his …
Psalm 23
The LORD is my shepherd; John:10.11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. I shall not want. Romans 8.32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? He maketh me …

Can being good get us into heaven?
Oprah Denies Jesus Christ – YouTube. Is it possible to enter heaven by being good? Over and over I come across this idea. God would certainly welcome a person who does good, and helps other, into heaven. How could God be just, and keep a good person out of heaven? It would make no sense, …
Judging others.
I like to think that I’m not a judgmental person. But that is what I would like to think. Thinking something, and being something, are entirely different. I also would like to think that I’m a good person. That in the light of God’s word, doesn’t seem to be working so well either. God loves …
Do all religious paths lead to God?
I have heard in the past, that all paths of a religious nature lead to God. We may be on different paths, according to our own understanding of God, or our particular upbringing or circumstances. One person likened it to a mountain, with God at the peak. There are many paths to the top of …
Serving God and others.
I read in our local Penny Saver recently, the hospital in the area I live in was looking for Chaplin volunteers. I thought this would be a good opportunity to serve, and went over and signed up. I attended three of four, 2 hr mandatory meetings, and finally told the Chaplin I could not continue …
Think on these things.
I was mowing the lawn this morning, and some negative thoughts came into my mind. It is easy to take a negative thought, and before you know it, one thought leads to another, and your in a bad place. Then I remembered the scripture, Philippians 4;8 ” Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things …
