I believe the internet is a medium we can no longer ignore if we are committed to “abounding in the work of the Lord” I Corinthians 15:58. It should be used by those who are charged with proclaiming truth to, with humility and conviction, relate the words and ideas of scripture. I hold a traditional, conservative, fundamentalist Christian view and believe every word of the Bible is true and should be considered before coming to conclusions or taking action.

“Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.” Many people want to ignore this verse. Modern Christian philosophers call it arcane and persuade parents to instead embrace worldly…

“Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD.” I can fully endorse the reality of this verse. My wife has not only been a great blessing to me herself, but has also provoked me…

“Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised is wisdom.” I have recently talked to a couple of people about struggles in their marriage. This is a verse that often comes to mind on that subject, as conflict…
“A prudent man concealeth knowledge: but the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.” Some of the most embarrassing moments of my life have come as a result of opening my mouth when I shouldn’t have. In most of these instances I…
“Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all sins.” I often wonder how much I really, truly love people. This verse brings great conviction, I’m afraid. Finding myself quick to point out a fault seems to prove I don’t have…
“All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them. They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.” If you have ever wondered why some who…
“For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil: But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a twoedged sword.” I recall a nickname the late Pastor Adrian Rogers called…
