    Can too much friendliness turn friends into foes?
    "Seldom set foot in your neighbor's house—too much of you, and they will hate you." — Proverbs 25:17 (NIV)
    We often believe that frequent visits strengthen bonds. However, Proverbs 25:17 warns that overfamiliarity can lead to disdain. Just as overindulgence in honey can make one sick, excessive presence can sour relationships. This proverb underscores the importance of respecting personal boundaries to maintain harmony.​

  • "Does God Demand Generosity or Financial Wisdom?"

    "Does God Demand Generosity or Financial Wisdom?"
    Mar 9 2025
    Does God Demand Generosity or Financial Wisdom?
    "Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." — 2 Corinthians 9:7​ biblehub.com
    The Bible encourages generosity, stating that "God loves a cheerful giver," yet it also emphasizes prudent resource management, as seen in the Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14-30). This paradox calls for discernment—ensuring generosity doesn’t lead to irresponsibility and prudence doesn’t hinder our willingness to give.

  • "A fool's wrath is presently known: but a prudent man covereth shame."

    "A fool's wrath is presently known: but a prudent man covereth shame."
    Mar 8 2025
    "Have you ever noticed how the Bible calls out quick tempers?​"
    "A fool's wrath is presently known: but a prudent man covereth shame." – Proverbs 12:16
    It's fascinating how this proverb highlights that fools can't hide their anger—they let it out immediately, causing unnecessary conflicts and damaging relationships. In contrast, the wise exercise self-control, choosing to overlook insults and maintain peace. ​
    Think about it: how often do we let a single moment of anger define our day—or worse, our relationships? Social media thrives on instant reactions, yet Proverbs 12:16 reminds us that true strength lies in restraint. Holding back isn't weakness; it's wisdom in action. The next time someone provokes you, ask yourself: do I want to be ruled by emotion or guided by wisdom?

    "Jesus taught that to be truly great, we must become servants. But does embracing servanthood lead to genuine freedom?​"
    Mar 7 2025
    "Jesus taught that to be truly great, we must become servants. But does embracing servanthood lead to genuine freedom?​"

    "Whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant." — Matthew 20:26
    In a society that prizes autonomy and personal achievement, Jesus presents a countercultural idea: true greatness comes from serving others. This perspective challenges our conventional understanding of freedom. Could it be that through servanthood, we discover a deeper, more fulfilling form of liberty?​

  • "Did John's baptism fall short of true salvation?​"

    "Did John's baptism fall short of true salvation?​"
    Mar 6 2025
    "​Did John's baptism fall short of true salvation?​"
    In Acts 19:4, Paul encounters disciples in Ephesus who had received only John's baptism—a baptism of repentance. Paul clarifies that John urged people to believe in the one coming after him, that is, in Jesus. ​
    This raises questions about the sufficiency of John's baptism and the necessity of re-baptism in Jesus' name. Some argue that John's baptism was preparatory, lacking the fullness of Christian baptism, which bestows the Holy Spirit. ​biblehub.com

    In Matthew 5:14 Jesus says, “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden
    Mar 5 2025
    In Matthew 5:14 Jesus says, “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden."
    But… what if your light is just blinding people?
    Light guides, but it can also glare. Some Christians shine with love, others just flash judgment. Are we illuminating the way to Christ—or leaving people squinting in confusion? Being a city on a hill isn’t about towering over others; it’s about being a beacon, not a blinding spotlight. So… is your faith leading people to Jesus, or just making them turn away?

  • "God's Wardrobe Solution: Tassels Against Temptation."

    "God's Wardrobe Solution: Tassels Against Temptation."
    Mar 4 2025
    "God's Wardrobe Solution: Tassels Against Temptation."
    You will have these tassels to look at and so you will remember all the commands of the LORD, that you may obey them and not prostitute yourselves by chasing after the lusts of your own hearts and eyes." — Numbers 15:39 ​
    In ancient times, God instructed the Israelites to attach tassels, or tzitzit, to their garments as physical reminders of His commandments.
    These tassels served as a safeguard against temptation, showing how simple symbols help keep faith on track.

    "Does God prune us to grow—or just cut us off? Let’s find out!"
    Mar 3 2025
    "Does God prune us to grow—or just cut us off? Let’s find out!"
    I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful." — John 15:1 through 2
    "Jesus paints a vivid picture: God is the gardener, and we’re the branches. But here’s the twist—whether you’re growing or not, you’re still getting cut! If you’re unfruitful, you’re removed. If you are fruitful, you get pruned!
    Either way, pain is part of the process. So, is God punishing us—or perfecting us? Maybe both.
