~ A Life That Pleased God ~   
 
We can learn a lot about how to please God from the prophet Ezekiel. His name means “God will strengthen” and his life was truly strengthened by God. He has been termed the “prophet of God’s glory.” Would you want to be remembered with an epitaph of “He displayed God’s glory”? Quite a testament to a life well lived!

Do Mature Christians Pursue Unity or Do They Pursue Doctrine?

This is of course a trick question, though not tricky. Paul's instructions are plain that we are to pursue both unity and doctrine. Further, pursuing both at the same time will be one indication that growth is occurring. "...till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men..." (Ephesians 4:13-14).

Identity Theft: Losing Our Christian Self-Consciousness

When whimpering Gideon hid himself from the Midianites in the winepress while threshing his wheat, the angel of the Lord appeared to him with this striking greeting: "The Lord is with you, you mighty man of valor!"

Man of valor? In Gideon's mind, nothing could be further from the truth. But the angel continued, "Go in this might of yours, and you shall save Israel from the hand of the Midianites."

What is that in Your Hand?

"Then the LORD said to him, ‘What is that in your hand?’ ‘A staff,’ he replied. The LORD said, ‘Throw it on the ground.’ Moses threw it on the ground and it became a snake, and he ran from it" Exodus 4:2-3, NIV.

Sometimes, we all feel inadequate, insufficient, incapable, unqualified and helpless to do something while in actual fact, the resources to do such thing are at our disposal.

I Just Came for the Pizza and Beer

Since the 1970s the term Roe v. Wade has been equated with the abortion controversy. "Wade" was Henry Wade, the District Attorney of Dallas County (Texas) who was fighting to keep abortion illegal in this country. "Roe" was Jane Roe, the anonymous lead plaintiff who was allegedly leading the fight for this "pro-choice" cause. In reality, Jane Roe was a young lady named Norma McCorvey, who months earlier had entered her doctor’s office in an effort to terminate her pregnancy.
