hello… anyone out there?

Today as I bring my blog back on-line, I am reminded of an event in Paul’s life. Shortly after Saul’s (Paul’s) conversion, we learn in Galatians 1:11-18 that he spent three years learning about Jesus. He didn’t learn about Jesus … Continue reading

now is the time

God has overlooked the things in the past. However, this is only but history. It is the future that God is concerned about. No matter what you may have done in your past, all is forgiven if you come to God and repent (meaning turn away from your past ways). Continue reading

When we do this, it simply helps us to want to follow His other teachings.
