Who Is Able? Duh!
Our Texas hill country home is ready for Christmas!
Revelation 5:1-10
The scene is still in heaven. The timing, I believe, is right after the rapture. 4.1 which says “after these things” is a transition, which I believe, is the end of the church era and the beginning of the tribulation. There are different views of the rapture, tribulation and Revelation overall. Read more
The Future Is Here
This is a group of work associates from Insperity. We are at Camp Pendleton, San Diego, CA last Monday evening serving at a Christmas Party dinner for 200 marines and their families. One of the officers prayed and then we all said Merry Christmas to each other! What an honor and blessing!
Revelation 4:1-11
This is a transition in Revelation as we begin chapter 4. In order to understand the flow of Revelation, it is critical that we understand and follow the simple outline of Revelation in 1:19. John is to "write the things which he has seen”. Read more
This is He
This guy is showing up at our house today for a long Christmas visit with GG and Pop!
Review of Revelation 2 & 3
Before we dig into the futuristic meat of Revelation beginning in chapter 4, I have been reflecting on the titles of Jesus. There are seven descriptions of Jesus at the introduction of each of the letters to the seven churches. Seems that it would be a cool little study to look at these titles. After all, this is our beloved Savior; our Lord; our immensely benevolent Master and friend.Read more
Lukewarm
This is the Hogan bridge on the 12th hole at Augusta National. I'm the tall guy (I love saying that) on the left.
Revelation 3:14-22
I got nothing good to say
This is the last of the seven letters. The letter to Laodicea. This is the saddest of the seven churches. There are no commendations. Read more
Remember
This is Zamorian. The Z-man. He was in our home as a foster child when he was young. Leigh and I had a reunion meeting with him last December. We love him and pray for him daily!
Revelation 3:1-6
This is the letter from Jesus to the church at Sardis. I find the opening line a little confusing. Read more
Grace
Jaycee was a rescue baby. She was placed in our home when she was 2 days old. We fostered her for a short time until her amazing adoptive parents and dear friends of ours were licensed to take her. She is vibrant, happy and much loved!
Grace gone wrong
Revelation 2:12-17
This is the letter to the church at Pergamum. "I know where you dwell, where Satan's throne is, and you hold fast My name..." Pergamum was a hot-bed of paganism and false religions. Read more
Do not fear
Here's a new addition to our front yard in our Texas hill country home. We are grateful for those who have fought and served to protect our freedom. God bless America!
Do not fear
Revelation 2:8-11
This is the letter to the persecuted church in Smyrna. Smyrna was an educational center of science and medicine in Asia Minor. Just like university cities in the US that tend to be liberal and anti-Christian, Smyrna had a strong disdain for the church. The Jews that rejected the Messiah joined the pagans in their focus to persecute the Christians.Read more
