James 2 See with Jesus Eyes When I grew up, I was faced with prejudice and all its faults. I was forbidden to have interactions with those of another race and another ethnic background. I found it hard to understand but found that little by little those factors crept into my thinking. So, when God […]
James 1 Instructional Manual Just as the OT book of Proverbs offers us the way to wisdom; James in the NT follows that pattern, but James refers to his readers as brothers or beloved brethren. Thus this might be an instructional manual for the body of the church and even more so for individuals in […]
Psalm 94 Pondering God’s Plan As we watch the decay of our nation we need to remember this verse: “For justice will prevail.” [Ps 94:7] One day God will end this depravity and this hate and anger. One day His people will be vindicated and the Lord Jesus will reign from on high. We sit […]
