About

Who I was and who I am. I am a sinner, in desperate need of the saving grace. independent of His glory. In the history of my life I have rebelled against God worked and labored for my own gain and pleasure. I have been a companion to the world, eyes and ears only to worldliness. From a child maturing a reputation in sin only to lead into death. In essense I was an enemy of God and His grace. But God in His ever enduring mercy has increased revelation of truth to me. He has shown me how wretched I am in my flesh and of it there is no good thing. For the flesh profits nothing. "Its just dirt" God alone draws out virture from my life and the light seen at any one point of my existance. For He is the author of all goodness. It is God working in me for I can do all things through Him. May His loving patience be magnified in this clay Jar, all for His glory. I put my hands to the plow for the road is difficult and action must be acheived in faith. Through the foolishness of preaching was I called, fear keeping me walking upright. This is not a merit badge I wear on my sleeve, or an achievement on a plaque as some outside interest to boast about. Being a Christian is the core of your being from the inside out or its nothing more then a sensation passing in the wind. Loving Him who died for my sins is evident in following His commands, you can't serve two masters, but only the "one" and its doing the will of the father. I am consumed or better, a slave ransomed from the weight of depravity working in me and the impacting world around me, influenced by its temptations. In the light of my conscience I choose the way of righteousness of faith in the WORD OF GOD of whom has layed before me life and death. I pray for His return and revival. Forgiveness comes in the the form of one sacrifice, the king of kings, the Son of God. Praying extends out the hand of my soul to God, pleading for his intervention in my life. I dare not say I am saved or forgiven, I leave that to God. There is a day books will be opened an names blotted out. A stand for mankind before the judgment seat of Christ and all will be judged.. but he who stands firm and endures to the end-shall be saved.

Favorite saying

  • ""You are a king, then!” said Pilate. Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. In fact, the reason I was born and came into the world is to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to me.” —John 18:37 "How beautiful they really are. And that there's no need to hide, or lie. And that it's possible to talk to someone without any lies, with no sarcasms, no deceptions, no exaggerations, or any of the other things people use to confuse the truth." —Powder [1995] "Faith is not a leap in the dark; it’s the exact opposite. It’s a commitment based on evidence… It is irrational to reduce all faith to blind faith and then subject it to ridicule. That provides a very anti-intellectual and convenient way of avoiding intelligent discussion.” —Dr. John Lennox, professor of Mathematics at the University of Oxford "There can be no reproach to pain unless we assume human dignity, there is no reason for restraints on pleasure unless we assume human worth, there is no legitimacy to monotony unless we assume a greater purpose to life, there is no purpose to life unless we assume design, death has no significance unless we seek what is everlasting.” ― Ravi Zacharias Humanism or atheism is a wonderful philosophy of life as long as you are big, strong, and between the ages of eighteen and thirty-five. But watch out if you are in a lifeboat and there are others who are younger, bigger, or smarter. --William Murray "No atheist or agnostic really lives consistently with his worldview. In some way he affirms meaning, value, or purpose without an adequate basis. It is our job to discover those areas and lovingly show him where those beliefs are groundless. We are witnesses to a mighty struggle for the mind and soul of America in our day, and Christians cannot be indifferent to it. —William Lane Craig “So I cast my lot with him-not the one who claimed wisdom, Confucius; or the one who claimed enlightenment, Buddha; or the one who claimed to be a prophet, Muhammad, but with the one who claimed to be God in human flesh. The one who declared, 'Before Abraham was born, I am' - and proved it.” ― Norman L. Geisler “I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing that people often say about Him: I’m ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don’t accept his claim to be God. That is the one thing we must not say. A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic — on the level with the man who says he is a poached egg — or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse. You can shut him up for a fool, you can spit at him and kill him as a demon or you can fall at his feet and call him Lord and God, but let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about his being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.” ― CS Lewis “Never dream of forcing men into the ways of God. Think yourself, and let think. Use no constraint in matters of religion. Even those who are farthest out of the way never compel to come in by any other means than reason, truth, and love.” — John Wesley "I’m afraid that it’s become so subtle that it goes everywhere. What is it? In essence it’s this! That this philosophical postulate that the end of all being is the happiness of man, has been sort of covered over with evangelical terms and Biblical doctrine until God reigns in heaven for the happiness of man, Jesus Christ was incarnate for the happiness of man, all the angels exist for the happiness of man…, Everything is for the happiness of man! AND I SUBMIT TO YOU THAT THIS IS UNCHRISTIAN!!! Isn’t man happy? Didn’t God intend to make man happy? Yes. But as a by-product and not a prime-product!" - Paris Reidhead, humanism "John the Baptist never performed any miracles. Yet, he was greater than any of the Old Testament prophets." ― Leonard Lavenhill The atheist can appeal to nothing absolute, nothing objectively true for all people, it is just mere opinion enforced by might. The Christian appeals to a standard outside himself/herself in which truth and qualitative values can be made sense of. --Peter Huff"
