Psalm 4: The God that Works

August 18, 2012 2 Comments

This is the fourth in the series of what the Holy Spirit shared with me concerning the Psalms.

Psalm 4< 4:1:“Answer me when I call to you, O my righteous God. Give me relief from my distress; be merciful to me and hear my prayer.”

At first, this might seem to be another plea for help from God to deliver the psalmist from his troubling plight. There are, after all, many such psalms and God himself invites us to do this very thing, to turn to him in our troubles and seek his help: He wants to be our God, who helps us in our time of need:

Psalm 3: God Delivers Us from Fear and Foe

August 18, 2012 4 Comments

This is the third in the series of what the Holy Spirit shared with me concerning the Psalms.

Psalm 3

We may tend to forget how dire were the circumstances faced by the real people of the Bible. Here in Psalm three, David is in fear for his life, as even his own son Absalom has risen up against him. And Absalom had many with him, those he had craftily stolen away from his father, king David. David shows his real fear and concern for the situation in his cry to God:

3:1“O Lord, how many are my foes! How many rise up against me!”

A Quick Refutation of Darwinistic Evolution

October 3, 2010 2 Comments

I agree with what the Bible says concerning unbelievers. It says that they are WITHOUT EXCUSE.

 

Our modern western society, however, has come to a kind of popular consensus that there is no living God. For the humanists of today, God is merely a concept in the minds of the mentally weak and ignorant. To all such people I say: YOU are IGNORANT of the reality of God and you are WITHOUT EXCUSE.

Does Christianity give good answers to the questions of philosophers?

May 10, 2008 No Comments

Philosophy deals with at least these three main questions:

1. What is it that really exists?
2. What should we do?
3. How can we really know anything for sure?

Philosophies that answer the first question are dealing in something called “metaphysics”. The second question is dealt with in the area called “ethics” and the third in the area called “epistomology”.

Every person answers these questions somehow.

For Lovers of Pleasure

March 26, 2008 No Comments

As I see it, a lot of pleasures are of course God-given and its good for us to give thanks for them. But I want to say something to people who believe that their whole pursuit in life should basically be for pleasure in one form or another. I would say it is a pretty popular view and one worth addressing.

An early Christian leader, Paul, wrote that if there is no resurrection, “Let us eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we die”. In other words, if this life is all there is to live for, then let’s live it up and enjoy it.

These are the last days, and we are living in the spiritually perilous times predicted by the apostle Paul in 2 Timothy 3:1-5. People are lover of self, money and pleasure yet hold a form of Christianity, thinking that having this form is enough.

It is significant because these are the amongst the last recorded words of the apostle Paul. In the next and last chapter of 2 Timothy, Paul writes:
