~ Three Children ~

 

Question ~ In an elementary / primary school the teacher asked three of her students to do a “show and tell” about their religious faith.

 

 

This Series ~ I hope these posts lighten your day as we take a light-hearted look at some Scripture verses and related spiritual topics. Some of these views of concepts may be well known to you, but hopefully others will be new.

 

Answer ~ The three children had very different responses”

 

The first student, a Muslim brought a copy of the Koran and explained it’s teachings.

 

The second student, a Roman Catholic brought a crucifix and explained what he could.

 

The third student, a Baptist was the most positively received since she brought a casserole dish for all the students to enjoy!

Veterans Day 2026

 

~ Most Freedom is Temporary ~

 

Political Freedom ~ Political freedom is always temporary! World history is clear that political freedom has to be secured over and over in order to remain. Bondage is only one generation away. A huge Thank You to all our military veterans – many who gave their lives so that we could continue to live free.

 

Grimm Reality ~ The moment you were born you were terminal!  Put another way: We all end up dead – it's just a question of how, why, and most importantly when. You, regardless of age, have already outlived some others.

 

Permanent Freedom ~ Permanent freedom is only found in Jesus Christ. If the Son of God – Jesus Christ – sets you free, you will be free indeed forever (cf. John 8:36).

 

“If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. For the Scripture says, ‘Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.’ For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him. For ‘everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved’.” (Romans 10:9-3 ESV).

Love Not the World, 6

 

~ Because The World Does Not Know God ~

 

Introduction to This Series ~ The word world does not refer to the physical world and all its creative beauty. Rather, it refers to the world system, its typical beliefs and often anti-God actions.

 

Scripture ~ “He [Jesus] was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him” (John 1:10).

 

Jesus prayed, “O righteous Father!  The world has not known You, but I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me.  And I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them” (John 17:25-26). 

 

Christ’s Prayer to The Father for You ~ “I gave them Your Word; the godless world hated them because of it, because they didn’t join the world’s ways, just as I didn’t join the world’s ways.  I’m not asking that you take them out of the world but that you guard them from the Evil One.  They are no more defined by the world than I am defined by the world.  Make them holy — consecrated — with the truth; Your word is consecrating truth” (John 17:14-17, The Message).
