One Life with Te’Luvv

Morals Without Jesus

God.  Some God.  No God.  Throughout the ages man has attempted to establish himself primarily, universally, and unanimously apart from God.  In other words, most people would agree that humans are capable of doing good and making themselves good without God.  Is will power and focused intentionality enough?  Can I envision things mentally, speak things out loud enough, be good to my neighbor when it benefits me to make society better?  If I have enough golden marbles in my house, burn incense, put lemons outside my window at night, and travel up a mountain to a specific location once a year to bring morality for all?  If God is removed from the equation, what are we left with when it comes to being moral?  

Men's Democratic Divorce

Men.  That word alone can be good or bad depending on the hearer's experience.  From the Bible's perspective, men are leaders as appointed by God.  To lead what you might ask?  The climate, culture, character and conduct in their marriages.  Men do have frustration, disappointments, and hard times as husbands.  Does God have the same expectation for men and women in marriage?  What exactly does God expect husbands to do in marriage?  Are men justified to divorce as casually as the 70% of divorces that are initiated by women?  When wives are difficult to deal with is God understanding of men who tire out and file for divorce?

Love Your Children to Death

Children.  Human puppies...they can be incredibly cute!  The comedy, sweetness, and love that oftentimes comes with raising children is invaluable.  Nonetheless, as cute as babies are, and as playful and cute as children can be, God did not create them as children but rather as males and females.  Most of their life will exist as adults in adulthood doing adult things.  Could it be that some parents have gotten things wrong or backwards by raising children who have very little interest in growing up?  More and more people are well into their twenties and thirties and still live with their parents like they are 12 years old.  What happened?  Is it possible that parents have loved their children too much, even in the name of Jesus?  

Sex Gender Fruity Loops

Cereal.  An American staple for kids and adults.  Different colors, shapes, and flavors still excite the minds of the masses for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.  There's another cereal that has been tested, tried, and true to be false in reality.  And that is the supposed war between sex and gender.  What is sex?  What is gender?  Are they the same?  What is this battle about and what does the Bible say about it with authority and finality?  

Women's Democratic Divorce

Divorce is a legitimate fashionable thing to do, particularly in women's circles.  Listen to what may be some surprising statistics on the steadily high climbing number of women who divorce.  Obligation, duty, and covenant certainly doesn't matter any more.  Divorce today for a growing number of women looks more like a real estate transaction, fostering a dog, or hiring temp employees.  As ridiculous as this approach to marriage is, the Bible has something to say about what may really be happening beneath the surface at the heart level. 

New American Blasphemy

Four plus four equals eight.  That is absolutely always and forever true for everyone, right?  Yes, but regardless of how true it is, there are some people don't want to hear it and refuse to accept it simply because it is true.  Truth has become the sound of scratching a chalkboard or the buzzing of a bumble bee close to the ear for most people today, including Christians.   Did you know that Biblical truth is now actually and primarily rejected by the majority of those who go to church, claim Jesus, and belong to a community group?  Truth is blasphemous to Christians today.  Don't take my word for it.  The Bible speaks very clearly on this issue.  Your pastor, church, or perhaps even you and what you claim to believe in may be challenged by God's word.  

God Needs Women?

The battle of the sexes continues to be strong in the world. Nowadays , it is just as strong in the church. But why? Did God create males and females differently in value and worth? Do women have value according to the God of the Bible? Should women battle men in Christianity too?

Biblical Sexual Sayings - Sherron Moore

Another one bites the dust. Sherron Moore, a seemingly great strong man at one point has fallen to the desires of his flesh. But is it possible that his assistant had a role in this? Did his own wife foster methods that chipped away at this man? Hear what the Bible says about the sexual activity that could have been happening behind the scenes.

Demoralized Youth Church 2

Parents are responsible for their children.  Period.  This is a clear global understanding in humanity.  What if I told you that parents agree with this until the spirituality of their children comes up.  American families have gradually come to the position that the church is responsible for the spirituality of their children and nothing else.  In other words, parents want autonomy on things like letting their children date, giving their children smartphones at 6 years old, etc.  These same parents pass the spiritual buck of their children on to the church.  Is this what God says is suppose to happen between parents with their children and the church?  Is there any way God can still be glorified and churches can still foster methods that help parents with the spirituality of their own children successfully, rather than keep the drum beating to the current methods that continue to fail miserably?  

Demoralized Youth Church 1

Sunday school.  Youth church.  Awana.  These in and of themselves are not bad.  The intent behind these is also not bad.  Sadly, and unfortunately, research shows that these do not produce multitudes who decide to follow Jesus.  Instead, the majority of youth involved in these efforts become godless and spiritually disinterested before graduating high school.  Disagree?  Curious?  Consider the truth of the spirituality taking place behind the scenes in most churches, parents, and youth that produces humans void of morality, that is, holiness and righteousness according to the Bible.
