Luke 17:26-33
"...And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of Man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was …
The Grace of GOD is Greater Far…
My reading of Scripture today was Ezekiel 15 - 16. Chapter 16 describes the sins of Judah and Israel, and why God judged them, the sins of Sodom and their judgment (16:49-50). We can see clearly that God does not tolerate sin. Sin is what God calls sin; it does not matter at all what …
When Our Words are as Mockery
And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons in law, which married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city. But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law. Genesis 19:14 (KJV) Looking at Lot is not always a pleasant thing …

A Prophet Speaks to God’s People
"Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the LORD has spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against Me. The ox knows his owner, and the ass his master’s crib: but Israel does not know, My people does not consider. Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, …
Those Who Judge of Judging
Today's Bible Reading: Genesis 19 - 20 "And they said, “Stand back!” Then they said, “This one came in to stay here, and he keeps acting as a judge; now we will deal worse with you than with them.” So they pressed hard against the man Lot, and came near to break down the door. …
The Days of Lot
The Pharisees had asked Jesus about the "kingdom of God" when it was going to come. Jesus answered them in one way saying, "The kingdom of God is within you" (Luke 17:21). He then, proceeds to tell them what the days will be like when the Son of Man comes. These are questions which are …
