"It is religion and morality alone which can establish the principles upon which freedom can securely stand."
John Adams, 1776

A place where I tell you what I think and you can tell me what you think about what I think (but not what you think about what my other readers think)...I think. I write about things of faith and other subjects of interest to me. I hope you like them, too. (By the way, your comments are welcome - see the side bar.)

About Me
- Joe
- I was born in Miami, Florida, the son of an Air Force officer, traveled the world, was saved at age 17, and have served the Lord since. That's me on the left and my lovely wife, Bonnie...the pretty one...on the right.
Saturday Lessons
The Saturday lessons are Bible Studies that are useful in a Sunday School or Bible Study class. They often contain questions without answers to stimulate the reader's thoughts about a particular Scripture. Feel free to use any or all of the Saturday lesson.
Spiritual Truths You Need to Know
1. The Bible is God's revelation of His character, His love for
His creation and His plan for its redemption. It's not about you, it's all about Him.
His creation and His plan for its redemption. It's not about you, it's all about Him.
2. Everything you need to know about God is found in the
Word of God; nothing you need to know about God is not found in the Word of God and anything you THINK you know about God that's not in the Word of God you just made up.
3. The Father is not the Son and He is not the Spirit, but He is God.
Jesus is not the Father and He is not the Spirit, but He is God.
The Spirit is not the Father and He is not the Son, but He is God.
4. The concept of the Trinity cannot be explained by the mortal minds of man, but it is absolutely Biblical.
5. All proper understanding of Scripture must begin with the absolute sovereignty of God.
6. To properly interpret ANY Scripture, it must be liberally bathed in John 3:16, the pivotal verse of the whole Bible.
7. God is omnipotent; omnipresent and omniscient.
8. Whenever we disagree with some aspect of the character of God (such as His fairness or His justice), it is we who are wrong and must adjust our thinking; for God is always right.
9. Books are great, but they represent the authors’ opinions and conclusions and must never take the place of Scripture as our test.
10. How to know Christ: Admit that you’re a sinner (Romans 3:23); Believe that Jesus is God’s Son (Romans 10:9); Commit to follow Christ and make Him your Lord and Master.

Rules for Commenters
THERE ARE BUT A FEW RULES TO FOLLOW:
1. Absolutely no foul language. If you are not man or woman enough to control your language, you are not welcome here...go somewhere else.
2. I am not looking for strings of commenters arguing with each other, so confine your comments to the topic at hand and address your comments to me, unless you can be exceptionally gracious and polite.
3. I'm also not looking for arguments over theology, and doctrine.
4. Since this is my blog, I am the sole arbiter of what can be placed on this blog. My decisions are final and without recourse.

6. Comment Moderation is enabled to weed out weird, off topic comments. Type your comment and prove you're not a robot. I'll check them daily.
