Well, it’s September, and I hope your summer was most enjoyable. Personally, I love having up to 15 hours of “Let there be light.” The Word of God shows us that He relates to us according to a linear timeline, and thus we know that He and the Lord Jesus are marking time together with us as the opportunities of …
WHAT IS “THE MORE ABUNDANT LIFE”
Some years ago I did a teaching called What Do You Expect? In it I said that having the biblically proper expectations in regard to God, Jesus, the Devil, and people is absolutely critical if we are to maximize our Christian potential during our days in this “present evil age” (Gal. 1:4). You must always be expecting nothing but good …
HOW BIG IS YOUR GOD
Yikes! 2015 is almost half gone, and we’re still here, not dead, and not yet rescued from this depraved and reprobate world. The darker it is, the brighter a light shines, and your light and mine can still shine like a city on a hill—IF we abide in Christ and “stay lit.” God’s Word is very clear that those who …
ARE YOU GETTING ENOUGH SON?
If you live in a seasonable climate, you are probably loving the warm weather that May brings and the opportunity to soak up some vitamin D-filled sunshine. In college, we sun-worshipers called that “getting some ‘bennies’” (i.e., beneficial rays of the Sun). Little did I know back then that I would one day worship The Son and get way more …
THE AGONY AND ECSTASY OF GOD
This month we celebrate the Resurrection of our Savior, The Man Who is the Plan Because the First Man Ran, and I am extremely excited about this FOD letter—NO FOOLIN’! In fact, as per 1 Corinthians 2:8, Satan is the “April Fool” for crucifying Jesus. The topic that came to me when I was thinking about what to write is …
THE DEARTH OF TRUTH
Hey, this is the only month of the year with a command: “March Forth!” So let’s do it! We can be assured that The Captain of our Salvation will lead us to victory, if we get up and follow him. Remember that TLTF stands for The Living TRUTH Fellowship, and our motto is, “Magnifying Jesus Christ, The Living Truth.” Did …
God’s Logo is Love
Today we live in a world where countless products, causes, and ideologies compete for our money, our time, our energy, and our commitment. Each of these has its own particular brand/trademark/logo. The company’s goal is that its brand becomes universally and instantly recognized, and that we are thereby drawn to its product, shoddy though it may be. The goal of …
Let’s Expect Miracles 2015
As another calendar year begins, I pause to look back on my 49 years as a committed Christian and my 47 years of being privileged to know a bunch of Bible. At age 22 I was in no way on a search for the Holy Grail, and I am astounded at God’s grace and mercy in my life. I never …
HOW’S YOUR “RAP SHEET” LOOKING?
Here we are at the end of another calendar year, and we Christians are still buying time, as it were. The Devil is gnashing his teeth (guess what—it won’t be the last time he does so; think Lake of Fire) at the fact that his one-world government agenda is still not a reality. Why? Because you and I are standing …
“GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS”
It’s hard to believe it is November, which ushers in the “holiday season” and catapults us to the end of another calendar year. I used to think that my birthday on November 10 (the same date Martin Luther entered the world) was what kicked off the celebrations, but a couple years ago someone explained to me that is not the …
