Wisdom Calls

God is Love Wisdom’s Call Proverbs  8   Does not wisdom call out?      Does not understanding raise her voice? 2  At the highest point along the way,      where the paths meet, she takes her stand; 3  beside the gate leading into the city,      at the entrance, she cries aloud: 4  “To you, O people, I call out;      I raise my voice to all mankind. 5  You who are simple, gain prudence;      you who are foolish, set your hearts on it. 6  Listen, for I have trustworthy things to say;      I open my lips to speak what is right. 7  My mouth speaks what is true,      for my lips detest wickedness. 8  All the words of my mouth are just;      none of them is crooked or perverse. 9  To the discerning all of them are right;      they are up...

Jesucristo --Only In Jesus Christ

Por la palabra de la paz en Jesucristo--By the Word of Peace in Jesus Christ o "¿QUIEN DESCENDERA AL ABISMO?" (esto es, para subir a Cristo de entre los muertos).  8 Mas, ¿qué dice? CERCA DE TI ESTA LA PALABRA, EN TU BOCA Y EN TU CORAZON, es decir, la palabra de fe que predicamos:   que si confiesas con tu boca a Jesús por Señor, y crees en tu corazón que Dios le resucitó de entre los muertos, serás salvo;   porque con el corazón se cree para justicia, y con la boca se confiesa para salvación.  Pues la Escritura dice: TODO EL QUE CREE EN EL NO SERA AVERGONZADO.   Porque no hay distinción entre judío y griego, pues el mismo Señor es Señor de todos, abundando en riquezas para todos los que le invocan;   porque: TODO AQUEL QUE INVOQUE EL NOMBRE DEL SEÑOR SERA SALVO.   ¿Cómo, pues, invocarán a aquel en quien no han creído? ¿Y cómo creerán en aquel de quien no han oído? ¿Y cómo oirán sin haber quien les predique? ...

An Urgent Call for Men

-
Here is a collection of some of my favorite reflections on men’s discipleship that I’ve posted on Facebook:   Why Reaching Men Is So Urgent: An Example:  Recently, my father-in-law and I had lunch. Our waitress, Stephanie (disguised name), seemed a little down so I struck up a conversation. Her car wouldn’t start and, not having much money, she was overwhelmed. She is 26 years old, a single mom with 6- and 8-year-old boys, and has no family in Orlando. The father of her children isn’t in the picture—he’s a bad actor. So she’s left to raise two sons without a father figure by earning tips. She has a younger brother who, without a positive father figure, is on the cusp of becoming a bad actor too. So I told her about the work we do with men and gave her a copy of The Man in the Mirror for him. When we said grace over lunch, I invited her to join us. She did, and I sensed that God encouraged her heart. What a perfect example of why God wants us to disciple men. Experience...

Occupy Wall Street Woman in Prison

Prayers for:  Woman Found Guilty of Assaulting Officer at an Occupy Wall Street Protest   A trial that had become a rallying point for many Occupy Wall Street activists ended on Monday with a jury finding a protester guilty of assaulting a police officer at Zuccotti Park in Manhattan in 2012. A jury of eight women and four men took less than three hours to decide that the protester, Cecily McMillan, 25, was responsible for assaulting the officer, rejecting her contention that she had reacted instinctively when he grabbed her breast during a protest on St. Patrick’s Day. Ms. McMillan had said she could not distinctly recall what happened amid the chaos of the night. After the foreman announced the verdict in State Supreme Court in Manhattan, the courtroom erupted in catcalls and derision from more than 50 of Ms. McMillan’s supporters. Several stood and shouted, “Shame, shame, shame.” ...

Who is the Deceiver Will Deceive Many? Trumpet

The Word of God   Daniel 8:15-27NIV 15  While I, Daniel, was watching the vision and trying to understand it, there before me stood one who looked like a man. 16  And I heard a man’s voice from the Ulai calling, “Gabriel, tell this man the meaning of the vision.” 17  As he came near the place where I was standing, I was terrified and fell prostrate. “Son of man,” he said to me, “understand that the vision concerns the time of the end.” 18  While he was speaking to me, I was in a deep sleep, with my face to the ground. Then he touched me and raised me to my feet. 19  He said: “I am going to tell you what will happen later in the time of wrath, because the vision concerns the appointed time of the end. 20  The two-horned ram that you saw represents the kings of Media and Persia. 21  The shaggy goat is the king of Greece, and the large horn between its eyes is the first king. 22  The four horns that replaced the one that was broke...

He has the Whole World in His Hand

God Has you in His hand 1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. 3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day. 6 And God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.” 7 So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so. 8 God called the vault “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day. 9 And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.” And it was so. 10 God called the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters he called “seas.” And God saw that it was good...

Jesus Our Medical Doctor at John Hopkin

-
Image
Here in a hospital famed for modern medicine, a 10-and-a-half-foot marble statue of Jesus rises beneath its historic dome. Elsewhere, such a prominently featured religious symbol might be cause for controversy. But at Hopkins Hospital, "Christus Consolator" has managed to defy its traditional symbolism and garner respect from nearly all who pass. Long a source of solace and hope for patients and families, the Christ statue also has meaning for hundreds of employees. For many it signifies healing, hope and compassion; for others, it means faith and tradition and even freedom. To a few, it is simply a work of art, or even a throw-back to a less tolerant time. Muslims, Jews, Christians, atheists-all interpret the statue in ways that feel right for them. Claudia Costabile, an administrative assistant for Johns Hopkins International, moved here from Brazil last year. The statue doesn't seem out of place to her, she admits, perhaps because she was raised in a ...
