Continued from last month Beginning around the early 1800’s until approximately World War II, the major evangelistic and missionary efforts to carry the Good News about Jesus to the rest of the world originated in institutional churches of the United States and Europe.  That is no longer true.  The bulk of global missions efforts now originatesContinue reading “August 2016: Major Paradigm Shift”

I wonder what readers might think if they were to read this teaching about Church in the early 22nd century, 100 years from now?   Will they feel my teaching was timely, appropriate, and accurate?  Or, might they feel I was a “false prophet” when I wrote it and none of the things I wrote about cameContinue reading “July 2016: Church: Not For Me”

Shining Example This will be the last issue for our teaching about light which we began last April. I don’t want to stretch out this teaching about light—and maybe bore you.  Please read Romans 13: 12 – 14. Here we read that we who are believers in Jesus are to put on armor of light. You mightContinue reading “June 2016: Shining Example”

Effulgence continued from last month Aren’t you glad God created light? There wouldn’t be much (if any) life anywhere without light. In fact, it’s almost impossible for any of us to imagine no light.  We have a number of tourism caves and caverns near us in the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota; usually, when theContinue reading “May 2016: Effulgence”

Turn On The Dark  I’m beginning a new topic this month, and it may take a few months to finish it.  The topic is:  light.  This is based on a teaching I first presented way back in the 1970’s, but I’ve changed much of it and updated it quite a bit for this issue.  As we study together aboutContinue reading “April 2016: Turn On The Dark, Part One”

Continued from last month In last month’s issue of The Traveler, we introduced you to some thoughts about God’s judgments and justice. We also introduced you to the word “anthropomorphism,” meaning to ascribe human characteristics to non-human persons or objects. Basically, we humans have done that with God; we’ve ascribed human thoughts and actions to God.Continue reading “March 2016: Judgment and Justice: Part Two”

Ask many people what they think about God’s judgment(s), and their responses will be something like this: “There is coming a time when God will judge every human, and, as a result, some will go to heaven to live forever with God and some will be cast into hell to burn there forever with Satan.” That’s generallyContinue reading “February 2016: Here Come Da Judge!: Part One”

You do realize, don’t you, that among our thousands of readers—and visitors to our ministry web site—some will die this year—in 2016? Could YOU be one of them?  If Jesus is Immanuel—God fully present with you in the NOW of your life—then He will be just as fully present with you at the time you dieContinue reading “January 2016: Prayer of Jabez”

Xmas? Is it “Christmas” or is it “Xmas”? Or do they both mean the same thing? Many would say it’s wrong to substitute Xmas for Christmas. Some say it makes no difference. How about you? Does the annual celebration we call Christmas make any difference in your life?  If Christmas doesn’t make a difference in yourContinue reading “December 2015: Xmas?”

Anastasia! [Note:  this is the conclusion of a two-part series begun last month.] For many, many years, I’ve taught again and again . . . and again (in person and in print) that we are in Jesus.  We are permanently fused and connected with Him in his death and burial.  Likewise, we became permanently in Him when He was raised fromContinue reading “November 2015: Anastasia, Part Two”
