Philosophy
Discussions about PHILOSOPHY. Because everyone needs to wax poetic every once in a while. This category will contain everything that interests me about PHILOSOPHY.
What is the status of your unbelief?
“20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.” There are many things in the world that […]
What Is Truth?
In John 18:38 Pilate asked the question of Jesus “What is truth?” Dr. Del Tackett has referred to this as one of the most important questions of all time in The Truth Project. Ravi Zacharias has called it the most tragic question of all time in that it was asked of the purveyor of Truth […]
Are You In the Midst of Despair?
Here we sit on the eve of a New Year. 2017 is about to pass into the annuals of time and 2018 is about to arrive with all of its mystery, and fear, and excitement. I don’t know what the New Year may hold for you, I don’t even know what the New Year holds […]
Do You Know The Name Above All Names?
On January 6th, 2017 Hillsong Worship brought us the song What A Beautiful Name it Is. In my estimation, this song is the full embodiment of Philippians 2:8-11 which says: “8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath […]
The Way
Psalm 84:5-12 New American Standard Bible 5 How blessed is the man whose strength is in You, In whose heart are the highways to Zion! …They go from strength to strength, Every one of them appears before God in Zion. For the Lord God is a sun and shield; …The Lord gives grace and glory; No […]
Are You Standing for the NFL?
American Flag proudly flying above the U.S.S. Constellation in Baltimore, Maryland’s Inner Harbor. I’d like to have a word with Americans today. And when I say Americans, I not only mean citizens of this great Country, I mean citizens who are loyal to the Country and its Government. Because you are the only true citizens. […]
Do You Meet Minium Requirements?
A co-worker came into work the other day and matter-of-factly proclaimed: “I met the minimum requirements of motherhood this morning.” I had to chuckle. We all have some set of minimum requirements we believe we need to meet in order to survive each day. But there are also a set of minimum requirements that others […]
Are You The Redeemed of the Lord?
One of the more interesting dynamics of the Christian Faith to me is the argument that as the Elect of God, we are perfectly in his hands. Never to have calamity or evil ever cross our paths again. These are the “feel good” Christians. The idea that “if God be for me, who can be […]
A New Dynamic
When I started LRPSP three plus years ago, I had no intention or desire to have a blog. I did not set out to simply archive my thoughts for all the world to peruse. If you have read any of them and taken pause, been blessed, or given new thought to some subject, then I […]
Do You Make A Difference?
In 2008 The Oak Ridge Boys asked the question “Did I make a difference in somebody’s life?” through a pretty thoughtful melody. They inspired people though song to consider whether or not they were making a difference in the world in which we all live. The song is asking us whether or not we are […]
