    Isaiah 53 is a well-known chapter in the Bible in Christian circles. It prophesies the birth, life, and death of Jesus. If you follow my writing, you know by now that I enjoy the New English Translation of the Bible. I like the clarity in the wording. Isaiah 53 is no  exception. Verse 5: He…

    How can God send good people to Hell? My son and I have long conversations about this topic. The place to start this conversation is the definition of Good, not Miriam Webster’s, but God’s. GOD IS Good – He is the definition. Psalm 73:1 says; Certainly, God isgood to Israel, and to those whose motives are pure!Millions of people are good people.…

    One morning, I was spending time with Jesus when He surprised me. He began to tell me how I was never a bother to Him. He told me He was always waiting to spend time with me—ME! I wasn’t an interruption in His busy schedule.  How often I felt God would show up for others…

    Or do you have contempt for the wealth of his kindness, forbearance, and patience, and yet do not know that God’s kindness leads you to repentance? Romans 2:4 Back in the day, people would stand on corners with sandwich boards or on a “soap box” and preach hell, fire, and brimstone. They would yell out…

    Salvation Mountain When we first came to Jesus, He took our rags and turned them into riches. How? He took our unrighteousness, which we had no way of dealing with, and exchanged it for His righteousness, which cannot be earned but is a gift. We call it Salvation. But even though we are saved from…

    Heaven What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear Heaven? Is it the streets paved with gold? Is it lush gardens filled with colors we have never seen? What image does heaven bring to your mind? We have some insight into Heaven in the Bible. In Revelation chapters 21-22 It…
