Let's get Biblical.

There has been nothing that has stood the test of time like the Bible. Despite the times we are living in right now, where there is an all out attack on bible believers and the church, the Bible will still stand and be our judge or redeemer in the end. We are not saved by a book, but it is the words contained in this book that will determine wether you spend an eternity dambed or an eternity in the presence of the Lord. What you believe about this book matters. For the fool has determined, that this book is irrelevant and the saint finds joy and comfort knowing that the words contained in this book will lead them straight into the presence of God when they die. This is a book of life, eternal life and it is for those who have faith, but to the heathen they are words of judgement. Nations have risen and fallen by the way they treat the words in this book and this book will condemn the fallen angels and sinners to a place of eternal torment, hear Oh sinner and repent. God our judge has c...

A portrait of truth.

When you think of truth and what it stands for are you able to defend yourself? Suppose you live in a world of lies and the only way you could survive is by telling the truth all the time. Jesus was the great truth teller, and when Pilate asked him what was truth he wasn't asking because he wanted to know, he was challenging the Deity and attributes of the one true God, who was Jesus Christ. Jesus said he would give his followers the spirit of truth and that Holy Spirit would reveal and disclose truth to His followers. Hence we can discern that anybody who is not of the truth is a child of the devil. Do not be deceived God is not mocked and the spirit living inside you who is telling the truth and who is not. Doesn't it say in Ephesians that one of the spiritual weapons of the child of God is truth? Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is ...

What are you weighed Down by?

Life is very short, you don't need a blog to tell you that. But what if you had the capacity not only to live life but to dream? Most people stop right there, they are content to go to work each day and come home and make dinner and sit in front of the TV set and..well you know the story. I think that rest is important but it is in those moments when we feel the most restless that we should take a step back and really ask ourselves if we are really living. Sure we have a breath, we sleep and we eat, but can I propose to you that life is really lived outside of the mundane? There is nothing wrong with having a family and someone to love, in fact those are things that we all desire. But who really has you?  We live in nice little boxes called houses (very necessary by the way) and we are surrounded by people and sometimes we wish we weren't. This interconnected thing is just a distraction, but if you could imagine one day all the things that you depend on, like you know, just di...

The second Holocaust.

If one would fail to remember the catastrophe that took place in Germany and the unequated sin of a nation, they would not go to bed with the president of any nation who has shown outward points of ant-semitism. For any Jew to support a liberal president of any nation would be wrong. I believe in freedom of religion but I do not believe in freedom of politics, where the rule of law is the pocket book. The world is free falling into an enormous economic decline and the worlds media is deceiving us. The world is in recession and here is the proof, http://recessionalert.com/world-recession-update-may-2013/  whether or not you click on this Link is your choice, but please stop letting the media trick you that our economy is fine and that it is getting better, it is not. And if you would listen to the right voices, which I hope you are doing now, you would see what I m seeing right now. This blog was short, but I hope you got the message, this is Mike.

When up is Down.

I've been feeling really tired lately, maybe because of lack of proper sleep or maybe because I've let the cares of this world bring me to my feet, and not to my knees. When a perceived or real injustice has been done to us the first thing I want to do is to fight. I think that some of us feel that way at times when we are promised something and it doesn't come to pass, we feel a sense of hurt, injustice, a loss of security, fear and anger. These are all natural emotions that I am all too familiar with on a daily basis, and I don't think with can live our lives without feeling one of them some of the time. The problem comes when we let these deadly emotions linger in our mind to the point where we are almost acting out of these emotions. Then you have some explaining to do. I don't think I am there yet.  In fact God did a work in me when I turned 30. My 20's were filled with anxiety and frustration at almost everything and everyone, especially myself. I was mad...

Wisdom is for peanuts.

I really like M&M's, I think Smarties are underrated and I'm not even sure if they make them any more. I've never been one for despair, in fact I'm all for it. Only if it leads you to a better place, I think we all understand that cold night when we had our first kiss but if that leads you to think that your life is pointless, there is still hope for you. All my life I dreamt of meeting the right girl, someone like my mama..but even prettier. I think sometimes the thoughts we think are like peanuts in a jar, they are meant to be eaten. But when they are gone, it leaves you with a really salty taste in your mouth. Relationships are like brooms.  When you find one, they sweep you under the carpet...wet ones. If I took my face and pressed it up against a really hard mirror, I would fall in love with myself. It's a good thing I can't see. I used to think that I would always go blind and it's a good thing it hasn't happened yet because I really like look...

How to solve a problem.

My dad always told me to never look at the problem but only the solution. I admit that when I was younger I always used to get upset at him when he said that because I really had a hard time seeing through the mess of a particular problem. I still get frustrated when life throws at me a particular set of circumstances in which there seems no obvious way out, but as life has taught me thus far, these are the times where you either die and give in, or something miraculous happens. I would advise anyone never to rely on the miraculous, I've been doing it for 14 years now and the only good that comes from believing in things that don't exist, is the strange sense of other worldliness that only people in deep sleep experience at night. Let me clarify. I do believe in God but I also believe in a finite world. If God chooses to reveal himself to finite beings, he does it in a finite way. I am not saying that there is no infinite, just not right now. I believe if we are going to solv...

In the Light of Common Ground.

I often wondered what it would be like to be a robot. No feelings, no emotions, no friends no family. Just a steel body, a blank mind and nobody to love..even if we know what that word means? Have you ever felt like you are the only one in the world who wants to make a difference, let me clarify. We have one life to live and if this life is easy for you this is your only life. I do not doubt for one second that you believe in yourself, but that is the problem. We are only free from ourselves when we give our lives, not for ourselves but for others. No one can really love the way that Christ loved you you say. What about the early Christians and all those who have been killed and are suffering for their belief in God. Suffering doesn't prove you are saved, but it is a clear indication that you are not a child of the devil. All this talk about life being easy makes me sick. Life was never easy for Jesus, why should it be easy for everyone else? You are not saved by your goodness and ...

Spiritual Complacency.

We have laws on the road that protect safe drivers from reckless ones and when I was 16 and just got my license I was charged with reckless driving. Here is how it went down. We (my friends and I) were on our way to the Argo's Grey Cup parade, and we had skipped the day of school to go to Toronto. I had a 1986 or was it an '88 Mustang/black, not one of those supped up ones. I remember buying the car, and the first time I looked at it was with a friend of mine's sister and although my dad was present, I made the sly comment that the back seat looked roomy enough for well..you know what. She laughed.  But those days are gone and my first car became a write off. I totally smashed it up on the way to the Argo's parade and got charged with reckless driving after I lied in court, but didn't get caught or should I say didn't admit that I was lying about my testimony. If there were courts determining moral and absolute behaviour in life and relationships, there would b...
