Do Business Till I Come (part 3)
As we go through this parable, do not lose track of who we are dealing with and where we are. This parable was given by the King Himself – the Lord Jesus Christ – and He was just days from the cross. His words – often written in red – are always important, but at this...
Do Business Till I Come (part 2)
We began our series of pandemic posts by admonishing believers to meditate (ruminate) on the Word of God. Paul encouraged Timothy to study to show himself approved to God, a workman who need not be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of truth (2 Tim. 2:15). “Study”...
Do Business Till I Come (part 1)
Leaving Zacchaeus’ house, the King was winding His way to the back of a donkey that would help carry Him to His cross, which was just days away. Keep in mind that getting into the kingdom is one size fits all. We get in by grace through implantation of the gospel seed...
The Mystery Form of the Kingdom (part 2)
Christians are those who know they have the free gift eternal life based on their personal faith in Jesus Christ (Romans 6:23). Since it is eternal life, it can never be lost for any reason – never (John 10:28). What becomes our motivation to live for Christ in this...
The Mystery Form of the Kingdom
The sole reason I believe as I do is that I trust completely what the Bible says – every word found in its proper context. I try very hard not to lean on my own understanding or my personal feelings about what it should say. I try never to think, it is fair, therefore...
Has Salvation Come to Your House?
Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted in the earth! (Psalm 46:10). These words have always been there quietly shouting to us, but the barrenness of busyness has taken its toll on the family of God. We have become too...
God’s Word Never Fails to Accomplish its Divine Purpose
God’s eternal Word never fails to accomplish its divine purpose ever, not one time (Isaiah 55:8-11). Jesus said that heaven and earth will pass away, but His Word will never pass away (Matthew 24:35). Paul said that the Word of God can never be chained (2 Timothy...
Word of God Speak
In the beginning was the Word (John 1:1). Jesus Christ is eternal. And the Word was with God. The second person of the Trinity was with the first person of the Trinity from the beginning. And the Word was God. The Word was co-equal, co-existent, and co-eternal with...
The King is Coming
The King Will Bring Universal Peace (Isaiah 9:6–7) Isaiah described a Wonderful Counselor, a mighty God, an everlasting Father, and a Prince of Peace yet to come who will bear all the responsibility of governing and rendering perfect justice in every case. There will...
Four Reasons for the King’s Return
Life had been surreal for a small band of men who watched their beloved leader unjustly treated for three years and in the end horribly mangled, and ultimately crucified, buried, and miraculously raised from the dead. Along the way, Jesus Christ gave the Jewish people...

Thy Kingdom Come
I am a fan of The Lord of the Rings series by J. R. R. Tolkien. My favorite of the three books is The Return of the King. I am always emotionally stirred by the words spoken by the white wizard, Gandalf, when he placed the crown upon the head of Aragorn, the true king...
