Hell’s Greatest Hits
A quote often attributed to 18th century Scottish writer and politician Andrew Fletcher describes the power of music:
Let me make the songs of a nation, and I care not who makes its laws.
I agree. Songs can move us to good or evil like few things on earth.
Music is a gift from God to angels and humans to express their worship of Him and celebrate the wonders of His world. The biggest book in the Bible is Music–the Psalms (Songs). Music will be perfected in heaven beyond our imagination.
However, since music has amazing influence, the powers of hell have used it in our fallen world to deceive people and draw them away from God’s reality and truth.
Here’s my take on Hell’s Greatest Hits…
The Anarchist
I was enjoying my daily Bible reading recently when one little word made a light bulb of thoughts explode in my mind.
This word has been prominent in the media for weeks to describe the looting, burning and defacing of statutes taking place across the United States. It’s been going on in the lawless city of Portland, Oregon for the past forty-five days.
I was expecting another term in my reading–and that’s what surprised me. I anticipated “anti-Christ” which conjures up visions of an evil world dictator or the “opposite” of Jesus Christ.
Now I’m reminded what the “opposite of Jesus” entails.
The Anarchist.
God’s Walls of Sexual Blessing
When I was young, I traveled around the world in missions looking for a wife then returned to my hometown (briefly) and met her–in a revival.
That’s a great place to find a bride. Honesty, transparency, and brokenness are great foundations upon which to base a marriage.
Our courtship also involved Valentine’s Day–which is Friday this week.
Here’s our story—and the truth about God’s walls of sexual blessing.
