When I consider the grave importance of what it means to "vote our convictions" and to "represent our faith" in our world today as genuine Christ-followers, I must reconcile the realities associated with a bent towards "conservative values" -- or more specifically what it means to favorably side with Republican platforms during most elections, because of the imbalance, the record and the rhetoric of the Democratic Party and it's known historicity of fueling the institutional Racism and the economic and political oppression that is understood by people of color who "know history"! As I was recently rereading an article during my travels throughout the State of Minnesota, I was moved by the realities of some of the "truths" that I just can't ignore, considering some involvement in politics at some level in the future.  And, with the conviction that more Christians do need to be engaged in the political arena, s...

That ole' GLASS HOUSE around "Ministers of the Gospel", is "coming down", and I'll LEAD THE CHARGE - by continuing to properly represent: accountability, transparency and responsibility; for what I SAY and DO! PLEASE "quote me" in EXACTLY what I say; NOT your "old tired interpretation" of what you "thought" that I said!!! Lol "What's wrong, Pastor? Somebody get you fired-up, or something?" YES - I STAY fired up, but I'm TIRED of the devil "picking off God's Men & Women, because someone sold them a bag of goods about what they should "be like" to God's people and the world. YES - we SHOULD: - do nothing to bring shame to the Name of Christ - keep our FLESH in subjection, and our eyes "in our heads" around all the parading bodies (lol) - be discreet with the way that we conduct our affairs in the marketplace - walk in the way that is worthy of our Lord, at all times; on and of...

#THE NAMES OF GOD Answer: Each of the many names of God describes a different aspect of His many-faceted character.   Here are some of the better-known names of God in the Bible: ADONAI: "Lord" (Genesis 15:2; Judges 6:15) – used in place of YHWH, which was thought by the Jews to be too sacred to be uttered by sinful men. In the Old Testament, YHWH is more often used in God's dealings with His people, while Adonai is used more when He deals with the Gentiles. EL, ELOAH: God "mighty, strong, prominent" (Nehemiah 9:17; Psalm 139:19) – etymologically, El appears to mean "power," as in "I have the power to harm you" (Genesis 31:29). El is associated with other qualities, such as integrity (Numbers 23:19), jealousy (Deuteronomy 5:9), and compassion (Nehemiah 9:31), but the root idea of "might" remains. EL ELYON: "Most High" (Deuteronomy 26:19) – derived from the Hebrew root for ...

Our “testimony” is NOT just telling someone what happened to us, but how we partnered with God through the person of Jesus Christ, AND - "overcame triumphantly", through each and every circumstance; NO MATTER WHAT "happened" to us in the process. God is NOT glorified in a "sad song" or "sob story" that we share through our innocent-ignorance or  due to the real-life brokenness, which causes many of us to tell the world about our suffering and challenging circumstances; without resigning it to GOD! The world is acquainted with "suffering", just as much as we are - or more, but - as Christians, because the Bible says “it rains on the just and the unjust”, our witness is strengthened by relating to those who've gone through similar circumstances -- and being a comfort or consolation to them. Suffering is one of the areas of "common ground" we have with all of humanity; as well as being subject to space, time and matter...

In 2017, if YOU determine just "to be about PURPOSE", you're going to solve the MYSTERY in your own life around the LACK OF EMPLOYMENT, MINISTRY OPPORTUNITY, and SUPERNATURAL PROSPERITY that you've been "waiting on"! DO NOT be afraid to be "isolated from the crowd", and MAKE SURE if you have the "same people" lauding or applauding everything that you do -- BE CAREFUL that you're NOT limiting yourself "hanging around the chickens" that love to "gather in groups"; and love to "be affirmed by people"; but will NOT "die to SELF" long enough to be USED for HIS GLORY! EAGLES "ALWAYS", FLY "SOLO"!!  SELAH.  #WS-3 Walter L.
