Will God Bless America One More Time?

“A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion.”— Proverbs 18:2. Too bad the USA has this separation of church and state when it comes to political discussions. This separation, as pertains to Proverbs 18:2, has turned us into fools. Since we now only express our opinions and eschew understanding of others, we have fertilized the extreme right and the extreme left. The goal of the extreme right has always been to eviscerate the left. The goal of the extreme…See More

ARE WE ORIGINATORS OR TRANSCRIBERS?

After reading a June 10, 2019 post reply from Dave Nickerson, I’m trying to discern if these Web sites are being taken as advertising. Dave’s reply was to “ALERT ~ Member: ‘just not sure how it works’" posted on Pray.Network by Phil Miglioratti on June 10, 2019 at 2:29 pm in "What's up?"Dave was concerned that “…one could conclude that Pray.Network is about being recognized as an author or thinker about praying, but not about the ‘work’ of prayer.”When it comes to theological, especially…See More

HOW I STOPPED PRAYING

It was only in 1998, when I started studying the Bible, that I realized God had found me in 1968.A fellow college student told me there was room for only 144,000 people in Heaven. He then asked if I had accepted Christ as my savior.At age 20, without ever having studied the Bible, I replied with a question. “So, with all the lives that have been lived, over the past thousands of years, do you think that there is still room for you?”The student hung his head and walked away. I did the 1968…See More

WHY SHOULD GOD BLESS AMERICA?

God bless America. That is the poorest excuse for a prayer I’ve ever heard.Americans bark out that demand hundreds of times every minute of every day. That phrase has no humility. That phrase has no confession of need. That phrase offers no supplication.Issuing this command to God is blasphemous.A proper prayer for God’s blessing would be, at a minimum, “God, please bless America.”A more appropriate prayer would be, “God, we have pushed you to the sidelines. You Remain there Waiting for us…See More

Where is it?

I had been in and out of prayer this morning. Then I was Given this to think about.Humans are made up of the physical and the spiritual. The physical part we can readily see. The spiritual we can only see manifestations thereof.So where, exactly, is the spiritual located inside the human body? The heart? The brain? I couldn’t figure it out.My best guess is that the spiritual in a human body is where the “brain bone” is connected to the “heart bone.”See More
