Ask

Dear Reader, too many are in bondage. Some to physical ailments, not of their own making, others to drink, drugs or similar things. Some simply to ways of thinking. We would find it strange to discover one who had a physical ailment unwilling to accept care and cure from those able to offer it. We watch with sadness as many held by drugs will not and sometime cannot call out for help. Yet for those held by ways of thinking, they have a simply resolution, Ask!. If you do not understand something, ask. If any would seek knowledge, and knowledge of God and from God, one merely needs to ask. Yet many are scared, falling to a false sense of pride, or concept of being ridiculed. Yet we must be better than this. Doctors do not mock the sick, and ministers of the word will not abuse those seeking. The desire to add knowledge for the better understanding of God is the highest of motives. Take courage Dear Reader and ask!

Think

Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid. • Author: Albert Einstein (1879-1955) There is Dear Reader great pressure upon us in this word to conform to a certain type of thinking. Often this pressure reveals itself in the goal to prevent us thinking at all. From young girls who are told via subtle and not so subtle advertising what body shape they should be. To those who have faith in Jesus who are told to define love as "approving every action that any person desires to do". Yet to this pressure upon us we do have a response. We can think. We can think with informed revelation from Christ and through Christ. We can answer the obvious pressure of advertising, by acknowledging that we all come in every shape and size and should appreciate them all. To the simply incorrect. By correctly defining Love: Which we know approves of what is good, and steers us away from that which is harmfu
