TAKE IT
DARTMOUTH, Nova Scotia, August 1, 2017 – There are only two ways: The right way and the wrong way.
There is no third way.
Something cannot be a little bit right or a little bit wrong: it is simply either right or wrong.
If there is any measure of wrong in a thing, then it is wrong.
If there is no measure of wrong in a thing, then it is right.
A REMINDER FROM JESUS (more…)
QUEER
ROCKINGHAM, Nova Scotia, July 2, 2017 – That sinking feeling when you realize your time is up. No reprieve. Your bags are packed. Your ride’s at the door. Better not to look around. Better not to savor the view one last time. Better not to let your gaze linger on the cheerful kitchen, the comfy bed. You have to leave. This is not your home. You have to leave… and then it hits you (yet again) that you never really had a home. (more…)
HEALING SPIRITUAL INSANITY
ROCKINGHAM, Nova Scotia, June 25, 2017 – That moment when you realize that nearly all of the people you encounter daily are spiritually insane.
Not just a few, or some, not a vast majority, but nearly all.
Nearly everyone you encounter on this Earth is spiritually insane. (more…)
THE SECOND COMING: A reminder
PHOENIX, Arizona, June 1, 2017 – There is a rising fervor among self-proclaimed Christians for the second coming of Jesus.
Many either see themselves as escaping with Jesus through the (false man-made doctrine of) pre-tribulation rapture, or eagerly awaiting his 1000-year reign on Earth when he’ll set up his kingdom and set things right.
But here’s the thing – Muslims also expect a second coming of Jesus. In their version of end-time events, Jesus is supposed to co-reign with a great leader who will likewise set up a kingdom and set things right, but in an Islamist kind of way. To Muslims, Jesus is a prophet, not the Messiah, and he will return as a prophet, not as the Messiah.
And here’s another thing – the recently deceased Israeli Chief Kabbalist, Kaduri, proclaimed in a hand-written post-mortem missive that Jesus was the Messiah, that he had met him in dreams, and that he was already in Israel (but didn’t yet know that he was the Messiah).
Hmmm…. (more…)
DIE-VERSIONS
PHOENIX, Arizona, May 31, 2017 – Everything that is God’s way leads to life.
Everything that is not God’s way leads to death.
The world is one big humungous diversion whose sole purpose is to lead us away from God and towards death.
It does this by enticing us to waste our time engaging in activities that have nothing to do with preaching the Word, nothing to do with aiming for Heaven, nothing to do with passing our tests or learning our lessons. (more…)
SPIRITUAL BUTTERFLIES
PHOENIX, Arizona, May 29, 2017 – I’m traveling again.
Traveling does more than jolt you out of your daily routine; it reveals the real you.
When you travel, you live and move as a stranger among strangers. Your usual frames of reference do not apply: not knowing anyone and not being known by anyone frees you from adhering to expected behaviors and from expecting certain behaviors from others.
It’s like a cleansing of your behavioral palate, a resetting back to default. (more…)
A SPECIAL NOTE FOR THOSE WHO STAND WITH JESUS-KILLERS
OAKVILLE, Ontario, May 16, 2017 – This is for you.
You know who you are.
You say you’re a Christian, but you openly support the Synagogue of Satan.
Can you really be that stupid? (more…)
YOUR OWN PERSONAL NAZARETH
HALIFAX, Nova Scotia, May 11, 2017 – Can you imagine if Jesus had stayed in Nazareth?
I can.
He probably would have gotten married, had a few kids, taught Sunday school, and generally lived a low-key though respectable life as a competent carpenter. Every now and then, he’d think about what might have been if he’d left Nazareth and done what God had urged him to do, but then he’d push those thoughts aside. He’d made a decision, made a commitment to the life he chose, and that was that.
Jesus could have lived like this. Any number of people who love God do actually live like this – quiet, respectable lives, going about their daily business and raising families. Nothing wrong with that.
Or is there? (more…)
This Much I Know
HALIFAX, Nova Scotia, May 10, 2017 – I have spent the past 18 years living as a Christian. Prior to that, I was a loud and proud atheist.
I have not changed.
My values have changed, but my personality has not. I am still the same impetuous, occasionally impatient, outspoken, laugh-out-loud, fearless person I always was. I did my own thing as an atheist, and I do my own thing now.
Being a Christian doesn’t prevent you from doing your own thing. It just changes what that “thing” is. (more…)
GO!
HALIFAX, Nova Scotia, May 10, 2017 – As the world around us spins faster and faster and faster, we need more than ever to ground ourselves in this one simple fact:
We have only one chance to get it right.
Just one.
When we die, we don’t get another chance to “come back” and make better choices. We get just one chance, and we’re living that chance now. (more…)
A BORN-AGAIN BELIEVER
