For this is the message that you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. We should not be like Cain, who was of the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own deeds were evil and his brother’s righteous. Do not be surprised, brothers,Continue reading “Love One Another”

Laboring in Vain
I consider myself pretty handy. I can do most of the repairs required around the home and I even have moments when I can actually build something unique and useful. So when I decided to make it easier for me to garden, I decided to build raised garden beds. Now, I had seen pictures ofContinue reading “Laboring in Vain”
Adoption
See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. – 1 John 3:1 Before I continue in 1st John, I want to talk a little bit about adoption. As I said in my last post, my wife and I have twoContinue reading “Adoption”
Abide
And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not shrink from him in shame at his coming. If you know that he is righteous, you may be sure that everyone who practices righteousness has been born of him. See what kind of love the Father hasContinue reading “Abide”
Truth
Children, it is the last hour, and as you have heard that antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have come. Therefore we know that it is the last hour. They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us. ButContinue reading “Truth”

Light
This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light, as heContinue reading “Light”
Why?
Why am I doing this? I don’t even have enough time to keep my Facebook page up-to-date. I barely have enough time to read the books that I want to read. Why would I take on the task of writing a blog? Insanity? Maybe. I don’t know who is going to read my blog, ifContinue reading “Why?”
