Dear Folks, Happy Midweek! Though we had a cold night here in the heart of Georgia, and it was below freezing even as the sun was rising, yet the sun did rise. And as I look out my window, the sky is a beautiful blue and the deciduous trees are reviving with an emerging, livingContinue reading “Christ’s Righteousness & the Sabbath Controversy”

Where Do You Find Knowledge?
Dear Folks, What have you been reading lately? Perhaps some do not read, or do not read too much. Then I might ask, what have you been watching lately? Or hearing? Or doing? In today’s post-modern milieu, it’s probably true that more people gain the majority of their knowledge and insights from watching video orContinue reading “Where Do You Find Knowledge?”

Hurricane Ian–Biblical Implications, a Time for Prayer and Fasting
Then He also said to the multitudes, “Whenever you see a cloud rising out of the west, immediately you say, ‘A shower is coming’; and so it is. And when you see the south wind blow, you say, ‘There will be hot weather’; and there is. Hypocrites!

The Adventist Calling
Sketch: The title of my sermon is, “The Adventist Calling.” This is the second sermon in my new series, “Stories from Mark.” You may well ask, What is the Adventist Calling?

The Owner & The Vinedressers

Psalm 98, verse 1 says: “Oh, sing to the Lord a new song! For He has done marvelous things; His right hand and His holy arm have gained Him the victory.” What is this new song that the psalmist calls us to sing to the Lord? It is a song of victory. But whose victory?Continue reading ““Making Known His Victory””
The Tragic Irony of Solar

The push to go solar in California, is now resulting in a huge mess for how to dispose of these “toxic solar panels.” The heavy metals like selenium and cadmium can leach into and poison underground waterContinue reading “The Tragic Irony of Solar”
