    Such Troubling Times

    Such troubling times we live in now Because to Christ much do not bow But bow to men, they surely do And to their idols stick like glue They masquerade of righteousness But to their sins they not address They walk in sin, and not by faith, Because their sins they not abate They will not obey...

    Some Boast in Chariots

    “Now I know that the Lord saves His anointed; He will answer him from His holy heaven With the saving strength of His right hand. Some boast in chariots and some in horses, But we will boast in the name of the Lord, our God. They have bowed down and fallen, But we have risen and stood upright...

    Keep Yourselves From Idols

    “Dear children, keep yourselves from idols.” (1 John 5:21 NIV) What is an idol? It isn’t just a carving made out of wood or stone, made to look like some kind of god which then people bow down to and worship. An idol is anything that, or anyone who we worship, that we bow down to, and to which...

    Modern day use of the term Idolatry

    I have a question about the way the term idolatry is frequently used today in modern Christianity. This term gets thrown around regularly to describe anything that seemingly comes between us and GOD. I am not debating that things that interfere with our relationship with GOD are acceptable, but...

    Flee From Idolatry!

    “Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry. I speak as to sensible people; judge for yourselves what I say. The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ? Because there is one bread...

    I Do Not Want You to Be Unaware

    “For I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea, and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea, and all ate the same spiritual food, and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from the spiritual...

    Easter McFeaster

    Your treasure your pleasures, Indulgent enjoyment, You follow whoever, And praise the flamboyant. The colors and baskets, The eggs all a plenty, The project, you task it, The purpose is empty. The bunnies with ribbons, The trinkets on tables, By greed you’ve been bitten, You then tell your...

    What's the Stink?

    Hear the whispers. Makes you think. Mind now wonders, “What’s the stink?” Is it factual? Makes you doubt. Hear what’s hidden in the clout. Preys on people who’re naïve. Love they to make many scenes. Who has done it? Do they know? Or, is all this just for show? News and Rag Mags much the same...

    Letters to the Seven Churches, Pergamum

    “And to the angel of the church in Pergamum write: ‘The words of him who has the sharp two-edged sword. “‘I know where you dwell, where Satan's throne is. Yet you hold fast my name, and you did not deny my faith even in the days of Antipas my faithful witness, who was killed among you, where...

    The Senses

    What’s that you hear? Whispers in the darkness, Rumors flying everywhere, Truth not to be found. What’s your response? Listen with attention? Engaging yourself in it? Or, do you walk away? What’s that you see? Sexual innuendos So loaded with perversion, Purity not found. Do you give answer...

    Are You Engaged in Idolatry?

    “Now these things took place as examples for us, that we might not desire evil as they did. Do not be idolaters as some of them were; as it is written, ‘The people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play’.” (1 Corinthians 10:6-7 ESV) I found this definition of idolatry online: “A...

    Where is Jesus in Your Celebrations?

    Is He there, or barely mentioned? Does He fit with all the tension? Is He in the ribbons, wrappings? Is He in the culture’s trappings? Is He in the food and parties? Overeating, faith departing? Is He in the twisted humor? Is He in the stories rumored? Is He in the decorations? Is He in the...

    Bring Them Home

    “Since therefore Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same way of thinking, for whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, so as to live for the rest of the time in the flesh no longer for human passions but for the will of God. For the time that is past suffices for...
