While the title of this blog may seem like a rerun of a Joseph Kerschbaum song, I assure you, it only seems that way.  In Kerschbaum’s song. the chorus is the same as the song title, and it’s sung between each verse where some of the lyrics say,  ‘All of the children once running aroundContinue reading “Where Have All the Children Gone?”

In this blog I should like to shed more light on the topic of biblical gematria and the number 22.  This is not an exhaustive study, rather, it’s just some relevant information that pertains to the nearness of the Lord’s return.  The Bible is God’s holy and His inspired Word to humanity.  It’s ‘His story,’Continue reading “The Number 22 in the Bible”

I was thinking about how relationships will work in the Kingdom of Heaven.  I know that none of us will be married, but we will somehow maintain our gender identity, except without the plumbing.  We will know as we are known, but with an awareness of who people are that we never met in thisContinue reading “An Unrestricted and Genuine Love”

In all my years of watching and waiting for the Lord’s return; and in all of my working and serving Him in the process, I have never felt so close to the Rapture as I do right now.  These recent earthquakes in Turkey and Syria have really caused me to watch with more intention.

There’s an old song in the church, we call them hymns, titled, ‘Count Your Blessings.’  It’s a classic by many standards, but one that carries with is some really good theology. The chorus proclaims, ‘Count your blessings name them one by one, count your blessings see what God has done.  Count your many blessings, nameContinue reading “Count Your Days”

NOT!  Don’t be fooled by the title of this blog, there are those out there in the blogosphere and other places in the social media world and in way too many churches who feel it’s their God-given calling to criticize the work of the Lord that genuine brothers and sisters are doing, for the Lord. Continue reading “The Ministry of Criticism”

Lately I have been pondering what my life might have been like if I had known what I know now, only back then, when I was a kid, or young adult.  This is typical with folks who are less satisfied with their lives in the present, realizing that there are fewer days ahead than areContinue reading “Past Goals”

We have just crossed over into a new year, another year, a year that is filled with as much uncertainty as it is expectations.  This sounds like the bite intro to the 50’s TV show The Twilight Zone, it certainly feels like it. We have been shielded from what’s really going on in the worldContinue reading “The Next 100 Days”

While most Christians don’t celebrate Hanukkah per say, most of us know that this celebration is mentioned in John 10:22 as the Feast of Dedication and it is prophetic in nature.  The meaning of the word Hanukkah is translated ‘inaugurate, dedicate, consecrate, and the Feast of Dedication. (Strong’s Hebrew: 2598 = Hanukkah).  This celebration commemoratesContinue reading “Happy Hanukkah”

The entire letter of 2nd Corinthians was Paul’s expression of thankfulness to the Corinthian believers; at least the majority of them, for their faithfulness to the Lord and the ministry at large in Corinth.  In 1st Corinthians Paul addressed the false teachers who were attempting to sway some of the believers. These false teachers wereContinue reading “Our Heavenly & Eternal Reward”
