The word of God is living and active . . . (Hebrews 4:12)

The Future is Now
I know it’s an apocalyptic vision for the future, but I’m thinking there’s a sense in which it is also an appropriate view for the present. Hovering over Revelation 12 and mesmerized a bit by “a great red dragon.” A … Continue reading
The Righteous Judgment of God

Caught Up, Come Down
Reading in Revelation 12 this morning. A lot going on. Great signs in heaven. An impressive looking woman juxtaposed against a hideous looking dragon. War in heaven. The archangel, Michael, and his angels versus the deceiver of the world, that … Continue reading

The Path and The Promise
It’s not something he was prepared to talk about (Dan. 7:28). After all, the tables had been turned. He who had, over a lifetime, gained a reputation as a dream-teller was now the one confounded by a dream. He who … Continue reading
