    True religion and false worship.

    No all religions are true. Many are polytheistic. Some are centred on a philosophy rather than on gods and goddesses. Several are centred on one God yet deny that Jesus is God incarnate and the Christ long anticipated in ancient Israel's religion. One religion is true. It is centred on the...

    The whole world before thee is as a little grain of the balance

    God's judgements play a role in promoting human repentance. For thou canst shew thy great strength at all times when thou wilt; and who may withstand the power of thine arm? For the whole world before thee is as a little grain of the balance, yea, as a drop of the morning dew that falleth down...

    Salvation comes from God alone

    It is the Church that believes first, and so bears, nourishes and sustains my faith. Everywhere, it is the Church that first confesses the Lord: "Throughout the world the holy Church acclaims you", as we sing in the hymn Te Deum; with her and in her, we are won over and brought to confess: "I...

    Christ is the light of the world and Christians are urged to be in union with him consequently Christians are urged to walk in the light. Does that mean never seeing the down-side of matters?

    I am Jehovah. That is my name.

    Jehovah spoke to the Prophet and said to him: "I am Jehovah, that is my name; and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise unto graven images." (Isaiah 42:8) And in the Law it is said: "Hear, O Israel: Jehovah our God is one Jehovah" (Deuteronomy 6:4) Yet in the new covenant holy...

    When you're sad or ill do you wonder if God loves you?

    When you're sad or ill do you wonder if God loves you? Being ill can be a very miserable experience and it seems so unnecessary so why do Christians get ill? Surely being in Christ and being his body ought to confer some sort of immunity, right? :)

    Tales of an Australian election...

    Australia changed Prime minister last year. The previous incumbent (Tony Abbot) was thrown out by his own party. His replacement (Malcolm Turnbull) is glib and well spoken and not very convincing. The public has lost their liking for him and his popularity is declining. His opponents now appear...

    It's all a pretence ... No one keeps the feasts of Jehovah today.

    It's all a pretence when folk claim to be keeping the feasts commanded by Jehovah through Moses. It's all fake. Take a look at what is commanded for observing the feasts. Passover:Now Jehovah spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, "This month shall be your beginning of months...

    A Psalm of David himself. 100:1 I will sing mercy and judgment to you, O Lord. I will sing psalms. 100:2 And I will have understanding within the immaculate way, when you will draw near to me. I wandered about in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house. 100:3 I will not display...

    Is it immoral for a Christian to eat pork?

    In the old covenant Israelites were forbidden to eat pig meat and numerous other land animal, aquatic animal, and bird meats. I like bacon. It is very tasty. I eat it occasionally. Is eating bacon or any of the other meats forbidden in the old testament immoral for a Christian?

    six points to bind them all.

    The use of a hexagram in Judaism is not ancient. An old example from the period of rabbinic Judaism is from around the beginning of the eleventh century where the hexagram is displayed in the Leningrad codex shown here. But for centuries before that the symbol was used in Christian and Islamic...

    An expedience driven life.

    Goodness matters. For Christians goodness is a high calling connected to union with Jesus Christ. As he is good so he calls us to be good and live a life of goodness. Yet in this world many think "until all men are good we must keep our wits about us and our weapons well oiled". Expedience...

    Pronouncing God's name. Properly.

    Many think that the proper pronunciation of God's name is is lost and that approximations such as Yahweh, Jehovah, Yehowah or some variant is the best we can do. Some search the holy scriptures looking for hints about the proper way to say God's name by checking how parts of his name are...
