Weeds in a garden are annoying. They grow way too fast, sometimes overnight. If left alone, it’s not long before they take over. Then, all the work of tilling, planting, and watering is for nothing. I try to keep up with our family’s small garden. Each morning, while the ground is still wet, I tryContinue reading “What Weeding My Garden Taught Me”

Woe to Me if My Faith Depends on Man
And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 4 AndContinue reading “Woe to Me if My Faith Depends on Man”
A Lesson from Job
“But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned (Matthew 12:36-37).” I have some idle words to apologize for. I want to explain the reasonContinue reading “A Lesson from Job”

Why I Quit KindlingTruth – Time to Address Accusations
One of Satan’s names is, “The Accuser of the Brethren.” For most of my life, I let him have nearly full reign over me. I did not stand up for myself, and I took certain accusations to heart, nearly causing me to abandon the work the Lord gave me to do. An article that IContinue reading “Why I Quit KindlingTruth – Time to Address Accusations”
Why The Name, “Jesus Alone?”
Is Jesus Alone a title that supports the Oneness Pentecostal teaching that is also called, “Jesus Only?” It’s understandable why some might get that idea from the title of this website as, “Jesus Alone” and TheLordAlone.com. The focus is certainly on the person of Jesus Christ and His gospel. However, I do not hold theContinue reading “Why The Name, “Jesus Alone?””
Which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it into my mind.
One thing that frustrates me the most is when my words or actions or are misinterpreted for evil when I intended them for good. This seems to happen a lot, so it must be that I am terrible at communication. I know that can be the case. Other times, I wonder if the misinterpretations areContinue reading “Which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it into my mind.”
Love That Surpasses Understanding
One of the things that I’ve read about in scripture is “peace that surpasses understanding.” That is something that I hope for, and I have experienced this peace in varying measures at times–though not at all as consistently as I’d like. There are many things that chip away at our peace. For some, relationship problemsContinue reading “Love That Surpasses Understanding”
Does Anyone Have Faith?
For most of my life, I thought that everyone was a Christian because most people said that they were. I grew up in a family of people who said they were Christian. The people I went to school with were Christians. It was rare to hear of someone who did not believe in Jesus. Now,Continue reading “Does Anyone Have Faith?”
Jesus is True.
“To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.” [i] There are many kinds of truth, but there is only one truth that saves mankind, and this is He who isContinue reading “Jesus is True.”
