What God Says About Beer

  What God Says About Beer      Not a lot.        I mean, Budweiser is not in my Bible.   What did He say about Bacardi mixers?   Was God ignorant of present man’s inventions of alcohol?   Maybe all could be summed up with this command.   “Keep your brain.”      Crack and meth are seen as bad boys.   Their ability to alter the mind are immediate and severe.   Hence, the government steps in to regulate by forbidding.   Alcohol, on the other hand, is permitted as a balancing act.      Prohibition was not a success.   It just showed people are willing to fight, and pay for, the right to cruise about society in gatherings.   Face it, people have a lot of fun and lay down many burdens at the doors of pubs and bars.   So, does God have a beef with the barley?      He has given us our minds as command centers.   Choices w...

Envoy

  Envoy 2 Corinthians 5: 18  “ And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation ; 19  To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20  Now then we are ambassadors for Christ , as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. ” Isaiah 40:3  “ The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the  Lord , make straight in the desert a highway for our God .”      He has entrusted us with the message of reconciliation.   The Great King declares He will come back again.   He knows His Father’s wrath.   The world is in severe want.   Its sins He holds against her and requires restitution she can only give by her blood.      The Father is ...

And Where Were You?

  And Where Were You?      My best friend’s mother took her own life.   We were in high school at the time.   It came as a surprise, kind of.   Her previous attempt was unsuccessful, so she tried again.      Suicide can do weird things to a family.   Question marks float in the air sometimes never being resolved.   Guilt can come and rest on shoulders.   Plausible answers temporarily cover the shame.   “Oh, there must have been something wrong.”   Mummers about the town as you feel the starting eyes.   One question:   Where is God in all this?      Pain can convince us that He has left.   Somehow His presence is sucked away and clouds are left about our heads.   Truth is, His temple is not based on our feelings.   If our feelings gave Him substance, then He would not be much of a god.      He lives out of our reality not to be mani...
