Inspi-Ration for the Soul

Hello everyone! Today, I'm going to be starting a new little snippet called "Inspi-Ration" -- your weekly ration of Inspiration! (And I wish I could take credit for this, but it was inspired by several friends.) I'm going to be posting just a simple Scripture along with my thoughts on it. This is not going to be a big study like I usually do; rather, I hope to encourage you with a daily quote or Scripture that I find to be inspiring, so that you can have something positive to think on for the week. I hope you all enjoy it! Let me know what you think!

Here's today's Inspi-Ration...

Do you ever feel like everywhere you turn something bad is always happening. Maybe you lost your job. Or maybe your faithful household appliance has just decided to give way. Or maybe it's something that is much more serious to you. Most of these things seem to happen when we aren't looking for them... and when we least want them to happen -- right when we don't need anything more to go wrong!

Well here is the perfect antedote:

"But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one." ~ 2 Thessalonians 3:3

Need I say more? :D God is good!

    You don't need a button. I already added your blog last night under Life Blogs. Don't worry about it! Do you categorize your blog as inspiring? I can add it there if you think it would fit there. Let me know! Have a great night!

    Actually, I posted it under Life Blogs and then I thought it would fit
    better under inspiring. If you wouldn't mind putting it there, that would be
    great! Thanks!

    God bless!

Did Pontius Pilate actually exist?

Antonio Ciseri's painting of Pontius Pilate presenting Christ to the crowd. For years, skeptics have claimed that Pontius Pilate, the one responsible for Jesus' execution, was nothing more than a mythical figure. Is this true? And whether or not it is true, what is the significance of this? The implications of this are simple: if Pontius Pilate, did not exist, then the critics are right in stating that the Bible is in error. However, if he did exist, then it proves once again that the Bible is accurate in its details. Let's begin by examining Matthew 27:2. It reads, "And when they had bound Him, they led Him away, and delivered Him to Pontius Pilate the governor." Was Pilate really a governor? Luke 3:1 seems to agree: "Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea , and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias t...

April Fools

Image
Today is April Fool's Day. While I am not too enthralled with the idea of playing tricks on people, I wanted to share a little story with you all (no offense meant to those to whom it refers): An atheist complained to a Christian friend, "You Christians have your sacred holidays, such as Christmas and Easter. Jews celebrate their national holidays, such as Passover and Yom Kippur. But we atheists have no recognized national holidays. It's unfair discrimination." His friend replied, "Why don't you celebrate April first?" On a more serious note, I would like to remind you all that we are called to be "fools for Christ" (1 Corinthians 4:10). This does not mean that we are to act stupid in the name of Christ; rather, it means that we are to go about God's business -- even if it makes us look like fools in the process. Today is as good a day as any to go out and spread the Gospel, to be a fool for Christ!  P.S. Don't forget : The Online ...

Quote of the Week: Ravi Zacharias On The Problem of Evil

Image
"When you say there's too much evil in this world you assume there's good. When you assume there's good, you assume there's such a thing as a moral law on the basis of which to differentiate between good and evil. But if you assume a moral law, you must posit a moral Law Giver, but that's Who you're trying to disprove and not prove. Because if there's no moral Law Giver, there's no moral law. If there's no moral law, there's no good. If there's no good, there's no evil. What is your question?" ~ Ravi Zacharias, in response to the objection, "There cannot be a God, because there is too much evil in this world"
