Government as Savior: A Tower of Babel
God help us, for we have voted ourselves into this mess by deceiving the people into believing that government is truly our savior. That is an idolatry, like Babel, that God cannot allow. And the healing of it may be the destruction of the very idols in which we have placed our trust.
God, Time, and Foreknowledge – How Can God Know the Future?
Time is a limited dimension, bounded by gravity and the speed of light. God exists above the limitations of the space-time continuum, and in fact created Time. Foreknowledge is possible to God because his existence is above the 4 physical dimensions we experience. His being in heaven is possibly like the 5th dimension, which is not subject to the limitations of natural time.
Mischief by Statute – a Prophetic view of the Role of the Supreme Court, from 1995
The Supreme Court is a Law Unto Itself – severed from the underlying principles of freedom, the nature of the Constitution, and the derivation of “rights” as the Founders understood them. This prophetic analysis of the Court’s behavior from 1995 leads directly to the decisions handed down in 2015.

Tithing is By The Law, But Generosity is By Faith
Tithing is an Old Covenant Law, but rarely mentioned after the Resurrection of Jesus. The New Covenant grace is faith to become a generous giver; not to fulfill a legal requirement of 10 percent.
The Boneyard – Thoughts on the Passing of Time and Old Friendships
On Class Reunions: There is something in the memory of youth that makes us want to return here… memories that are still living in our mind’s eye and not dead. Times of play and joy, easier times, lesser responsibilities, when we all believed in the illusion of our own immortality. Friendships, like a tribe, have lasted a lifetime. When we meet up, it is as if all the years between have disappeared and we are back to our youth. There is something here we have shared, we shared with no one else. But there is also something in our memories, which speak to our hope for eternity. It is a memory almost forgotten… buried under leaves and grass… that life goes on even after the parting of familiar friends.
The Decline and Fall of the Democrat Party
The high ideals expressed by John F. Kennedy in his inaugural address to the Nation spoke of sacrificial service to the country and the world. Today, the Democrat party is all about what the government can do for you. How far we have fallen.
The Decline and Fall of the United States
A nation that rejects its moral foundation is set adrift and will find itself incapable of governing. The chaos of unrestrained self-interest leads to moral chaos and a breakdown of the social fabric that unites a people. We are experiencing this breakdown before our very eyes.
