Based upon something LL Cool J said. “Music is like a Rorschach test: People hear what they want to hear” concerning the song, “Accidental Racist” the duet he did with Brad Paisley.
Mark 10:17-22; Luke 23:40-43; Mark 16:16 – How Do You Want to Be Saved?
PHall | May 30, 2013
Few want to be saved like the Rich Young Ruler before the cross (Mark 10:17-22); Many want to be saved like the thief on the cross (Luke 23:40-43); All can be saved by believing and being baptized like Jesus said after the cross (Mark 16:16).
Joshua 5:13-15 – Praying through the Bible #64 – A Prayer When God is “Neither”
PHall | May 28, 2013
Did you ever dare to wonder in prayer, out loud, or in the secret recesses of your own mind, if God is a friend or foe? The answer today, right now, just might be, “neither.” The writer of Joshua wants to exalt Joshua as the successor of Moses: God speaks to both Moses and Joshua […]
Exodus 20; Deuteronomy 5 – The Ten Commandments for Christians
PHall | May 28, 2013
1. Thou shalt have no other gods before me, including sex, work and money which means stop being your own god! 2. Thou shalt not make any idols for yourself, whether fancy cars or clothes, whether fame or fortune, or thinking that I am with you just because of fancy church buildings or thinking a […]
Mark 4:9 – Ears to Hear Need Q-Tips
PHall | May 23, 2013
A dear old lady at church when I was a teenager would always have a smile and encouraging word. She couldn’t hear, but loved coming. One day they discovered part of the hearing problem was about 8 feet of built up earwax. That might be a slight exaggeration. Once removed, the smile was even bigger! […]
2 Corinthians 10:3-5 – Winning Battles Losing the War
PHall | May 22, 2013
A HISTORY LESSON WITH SPIRITUAL APPLICATION – In 1755 the French-Indian war began. This war between Britain with their Colony allies and France with their Indian allies was fought mainly in the New World for dominance and control of the vast new lands. French power was ended in North America under the Treaty of Paris […]
Deuteronomy 33 – Praying through the Bible #63 – A Prayer of Last Words
PHall | May 22, 2013
Certain cultural norms are more meaningful and worth emulating than others. Talking to our children before we die is definitely one of those. Before Moses dies, he blesses his “children” (Dt 33). Moses “looks at each tribe and prays for its well-being in the light of its characteristics, inclination, and capacities. The blessing, a poem […]
2 Kings 17:15 – We Become What We Worship
PHall | May 17, 2013
One of the most poignant passages in 2 Kings (possibly all the Bible) is 17:15 – “They pursued worthless idols and became worthless themselves.” To “pursue” metaphorically means “became loyal to.” We become what we worship.
Deuteronomy 32:1-43 – Praying through the Bible #62 – A Prayer that is a Honest Song
PHall | May 15, 2013
To be perfectly honest, I’m not sure I want to be as perfectly honest as this song reveals. I prefer the naïve hope of “I’ll Never Forsake My Lord” which promises “Though the tempter in efforts bold, Or in subtly as of old, Should essay to allure my soul – I’ll never forsake the Lord.” […]
