Last updated on: January 1, 2007 at 3:45 pm By Jim Erwin

1 Timothy 1:12-17 Preparing for a Spiritual Birthday Does God place a special meaning in our birthdays? I tried to look up the word “birthday” in the Bible. Here are the two references to birthday: Now it came to pass on the third day, which was Pharaoh‘s birthday, that he made a feast for all his servants; and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants. Then he restored the chief... Read more

Watchamacallit

Last updated on: May 31, 2018 at 9:22 pm By Jim Erwin

Watchamacallit So when the children of Israel saw it, they said to one another, “What is it?” For they did not know what it was. And Moses said to them, “This is the bread which the LORD has given you to eat. (Exodus 16:15 NKJV) I have found the heavenly “manna” that the Israelites used in the wilderness. It is now a candy bar produced by Hershey. Of course, in reality, Biblical manna was something completely different. The Hebrew word man-hu,... Read more

Joshua 2:1-24 The Scarlet Risk

Last updated on: September 27, 2006 at 1:04 pm By Jim Erwin

Joshua 2:1-24 The Scarlet Risk You have probably heard of the expression: “You could go out on a limb.” To put yourself in a risky position in order to help another person is to go “out on a limb” for them. Example: “You know I’m always here to help you and would go out on a limb if you asked me to.” As you climb “out” farther “on a limb” of a tree, there is a greater chance that the... Read more

Pimp My Faith But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness, to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love.

I did not come to bring peace but a sword.

Terrorists Attack…But We Save Lives

Last updated on: September 11, 2006 at 8:52 am By Jim Erwin

Terrorists Attack…But We Save Lives “For the Son of Man did not come to destroy men’s lives but to save them.” (Luke 9:56 NKJV) Terrorists attack. That is the nature of a terrorist. They bring terror in their wake. Today is the fifth anniversary of one such attack. The attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City, the Pentagon, and in Pennsylvania on September 11, 2001 changed the perspective of terrorism against Americans forever. On this day, almost...

When Jesus Went on a Divinity Diet

It is rich and thick. I usually eat it around Christmas time. But after eating it, I have to go on a diet. Jesus Himself went on a divinity diet. This verse describes the fact that Jesus made a diet of His divinity and came to... Read more

Kicking Hard Against God’s Will

Last updated on: May 19, 2006 at 8:56 am By Jim Erwin

Kicking Hard Against God’s Will And when we had all fallen to the ground, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew language, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.’ (Acts 26:14 ESV) According to Wiktionary, a goad is a long, pointed stick used to prod an animal forward.
