The Bible makes it perfectly clear that “The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all nations that forget God” (Ps. 9:17). The wicked being every person engaged in some kind of unrepentant rottenness that defies God’s commands. Collective wickedness naturally causes a nation to “forget,” probably better rendered “ignore,” God,…
That’s right. I wrote it and it’s true. The world has gone crazy, having relinquished whatever little sanity it had and has lost its collective mind. Whereas only a few short weeks ago the world was teetering on a nervous breakdown, recent events have made it clear that it has…
Thursday evening I am enjoying dinner with an old High School friend a thousand miles away from the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. The food was great, but the conversation was even better, as we go back a long time and do not really get to see each other that often. Friday…
