1 John 3:8 – What Destroys Us Is What We Try To Destroy
PHall | July 12, 2013
What destroys us is often what we try to destroy. And in that dual destruction we find our salvation. That is just one messages and meanings of the cross. That is both the irony and paradox of the cross. Jesus came to destroy sin. And sin destroyed Him, so that He could ultimately destroy it. […]
Numbers 22:28-30 – “The Donkey Was Not Available”
PHall | July 12, 2013
“The donkey was not available tonight.” That was the answer given to someone feeling inadequate and wondering why God chose them. The donkey was Balaam’s and the point was if God can use a donkey why can’t God use you. Quite humbling and appropriate, don’t you think?
Ephesians 2:11-22 – Unity In Diversity
PHall | July 12, 2013
“Israel’s Christian Arabs” – Yes, that is the description of a group of people living in Israel. Citizens of Israel. Believers in Jesus. Racially Arabic. They are forming a new political group called, “Sons of the New Covenant.” Cannot think of a more eclectic and yet inclusive set of people. Sounds like what a church […]
John 4:26 – NASB vs. HCSB vs. ESV
PHall | July 11, 2013
John 4:26 (NASB) – Jesus *said to her, “I who speak to you am [He.”] John 4:26 (HCSB) – “I am (He),” Jesus told her, “the One speaking to you.” John 4:26 (ESV2011) Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you am he.” Anyone familiar with the gospel of John is familiar with the […]
Matthew 6:22; 7:3-5 – Seeing Clearly
PHall | July 11, 2013
Seeing only through one eye we lose depth perception. Seeing only through the eye of grace and love, or the eye of knowledge and law, we also lose depth perception. Open both eyes to see clearly.
John 3-4 – Proper Progression
PHall | July 11, 2013
Born of water and Spirit, Drinking living water, Having eternal life, Worshiping in spirit (or Spirit) and truth. Cannot worship in spirit and truth without having eternal life. Cannot have eternal life without drinking living water. Cannot drink living water without being born of water and Spirit.
Perryism – Gospel Symmetry: The greatest command is us loving God (Mt.22:37) and the greatest declaration is God loving us (Jn.3:16).

1 Corinthians 16:1-2 – Saints Only
PHall | June 26, 2013
My personal view is that God does not assign directives for no purpose. In trying to make sense of the obvious (to me) restrictions placed on the church treasury for supporting needy saints, I thought of the following comparison. In the Old Testament the sacrifices were designed to feed the priests and Levites (and their […]
Poem – Some Pray
PHall | June 25, 2013
Some pray with their heads bowed; Some stand with outreached hands; Some pray in tears out loud; All short of God’s commands. Others look down their holy nose; Others falsely on knees; Other’s disdain exposed; “Thank you I’m not like these.” All less than pure, than He; All our fears, doubts allayed; All […]
