Welcome

Over the years I have written several "book" or "booklets" and many, many, many newsletter and bulletin articles. Because the book market seeks writings to meet specific needs at specific times, my material has never been accepted. I have a tendency to write what is on my mind and so I am left with self publishing. So, with the encouragement from my wife and others, I am beginning this blog in order to put my "ramblings" "out there"! I hope you enjoy!

Disclaimer

Please note that while my intentions are to use good grammar, because of the way in which some of the material presented here is presented (orally) the grammar and syntax might not always be the best English. Also note that good theology is not always presented in the best English so there may be times when the proper grammar rules are purposely broken.

Discernment Day Eight

All these statements are simply excuses and an attempt to excuse oneself of their own spiritual responsibility.

How do you think this will go on the last day?
God: Do I know you?
Person: Well, I did not go to church because my parents made me.
God: Jesus willing died for you.
Person: Well, I did not go to church because I was mad at my pastor.
God: You were angry at the man I sent to preach the Gospel? Was he preaching heresy? Was he not preaching the Gospel, administering the Sacraments and forgiving and retaining sins?
Person: God, it is not my fault, it is your fault (Gen. 3:12). It’s someone else’s fault.
God: I the Lord your God am a jealous God, thus, as you sow, so shall you reap.

New challenge, how about one of my favorites, discern what is wrong with the following statement:
What is wrong with this bumper sticker?
