The “normalcy bias” is exactly what it says it is–a preference, sometimes a passion, to have things remain the same. Because He was a man, Jesus undoubtedly yearned for things to remain the same following His entrance into the ministry to which His Father had called Him. One day He was just Jesus the son […]
Normalcy Bias (cont. 1)
GOD IS DIFFERENT–a statement which no one in professing Christendom would deny. But He is different in a way that extremely few church members realize. If His Word can be believed, His attitude is the exact opposite of man’s when it comes to relationships among those who call themselves by His name. Place 1000 professing […]
The Normalcy Bias
Normalcy Bias: the desire for the common; an innate resistance to anything outside the norm (normal). The desire for social and spiritual normalcy is as old as man. Because of the normalcy bias, human beings automatically resist that which is not familiar. Unfamiliar people, places and situations are all approached with a degree of caution. […]
The Perfect Storm (cont. 3)
As a result of the Lord’s decline in importance, sin will soon be viewed by the majority of the earth’s population as a relic of the distant past. As stated earlier, I predict that within 10 years the Bible, the age-old standard by which our ancestors evaluated themselves, will be removed from the public domain […]
The Perfect Storm (cont. 2)
What was seen and heard during the interview with the scout leader left all who viewed it with the correct impression that the man was an upstanding citizen worthy of the public’s acceptance on the social level. But it was what was neither spoken during the interview nor afterwards that once again revealed how far […]
The Perfect Storm (cont. 1)
Having realized many years ago that my beloved country was on her way down and out, I wanted to be around to witness and experience her demise. God is answering my unspoken prayer. Being a student of history and an observer of the present, I thought I had my nation’s future fall into the abyss […]
The Perfect Storm
The expression “perfect storm” is used to describe an event in which several similar factors combine to create something outside the norm–an unnatural entity that none of the elements could produce in isolation. On October 28, 1991 what would evolve into a literal “perfect storm” formed off the coast of Nova Scotia as westward bound […]
The Gospel of Christ (cont. 1)
In that I have previously written extensively on the subject at hand (see the posting by the same name), I will end this series by briefly explaining the limited, exclusive responsibility of one truly called by God into His ministry. It is not to conduct the popular Social Gospel, nor is it to become involved […]
The Gospel of Christ
Much has been spoken and written about the gospel of Jesus Christ–its subject and its message. Throughout 70 decades of hearing and reading messages of a religious nature, I have found only two ministers who preach and teach the gospel as God commands it to be preached and taught. I am the third. In that […]
Spiritual Warfare (cont. 2)
The modern Word-rejecter does not need to hear or read God’s message–His Holy Bible–in that he has his own sect-grown and sect-taught prophets to tell him what he wants to hear (Jn. 10:10-13). Having itching ears, he will listen only to smooth things, lies and deceits which confirm the beliefs that have been handed down […]
