Who Owns Death? (Part II)
I left off this topic in part I with Satan having stolen the spiritual life of humanity from God. 13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14 Which is…

Who Owns Death? (Part I)
Death is a subject that may not interest very many people. For some it may be something that looms over their head that they just don’t want to think about. For others it may be a mystery that grips the heart with fear. Still others have some morbid fascination with death that defies logic and…

When Do We Commit to Life?
Here is something I penned some 17 years ago concerning Terri Schiavo and her husband’s decision to remove her from life support: The question then, as it is today, is when do you commit to life (or not)? When we realize that life is a gift from God, and that it is He who grants…

Are You “Woke”?
There is a prevailing movement alive today, that (supposedly) started a few short years ago, and purports to be ‘alert to racial prejudice and discrimination’ (see this Wikipedia article).

There Is No Honor In Death
I lost my cousin today. The son of my dad’s brother, and the youngest of two children, he was known to the family as Little John. I suppose from some throwback to the Robin Hood character. But not to me. To me he was always Big Bad John. John stood 6 foot 5 inches tall…

Do You Have A Right To Die?
The world is officially losing its mind. At least we are here in the United States of America (and probably most other Western cultures as well). California became the fifth State this week to pass a Right To Die law. For some reason there are those that seem rather gleeful about this. This law supposedly gives those…

Is It Your Time?
I recently heard a young woman giving a speech during which she proclaimed to all within her age group that today was her generation’s time. This is a somewhat common phrase heard in most cultures around the world. The idea that now is your time (or our time) is an expression fairly well understood by most…
