Just A Question...And A Personal Thought

The question: What personal private thoughts about the new system would you be willing to unveil and share with all here on this site? It can be anything, it doesn't have to be "cool" or "inspiring", I am just genuinely curious to see how much time my brothers and sisters spend thinking about the new world.   I often find myself daydreaming about it, I sometimes imagine that the Bible is my personal "tourist guide", so to speak. I try to picture in my mind's eye the landscape, the flor

Please...Please Never Forget...Jehovah, Give Me Courage

Give me courage...how those three words evoke memories and specific images in our heads.   The video to that song was simultaneously awe inspiring and nail biting...our dear brothers and sisters being herded into an open field by military men with guns...no protection...helpless.   And then, the camera pans upwards...and suddenly we see the sky fill with the heavenly host of angels, 144,000...and Christ himself leading the way.   Writing these words...I have chills

How Often Do YOU Check Your Mirrors?

In my experience...in the Midwest...and with all of the insane road rage that exists on today's highways...my answer is: ALL THE TIME!!   I will try to spare you dear friends more of my incessant ramblings and get straight to the point. Like the scriptural gem I have prepared, I will ATTEMPT to be short and to the point, (though I offer no promises...for my pontificating is valuable and...and okay...I'll shut up now):😅   1 Thessalonians 5:17: “Pray constantly.”   Ye

What's in a drop of water?

“You Have Your Company Of Young Men Just Like Dewdrops...” Sound familiar?   Here's a quote that...if given just a little bit of light...has the ability to sparkle like the sun:   Penetrate the heart of just one drop of water...and you will be flooded by a hundred oceans.   The scripture I quoted to begin with is well known to all of us, but hopefully I will be able to add just a spiritual gem or two that you may not have heard...and if you have...then hopefully yo

What is a Blog?

Blog, Blogger, and Blogging - just what do these words mean? What exactly is a blog? How does it work? Should I start one? Should I start one on JWTalk?

Who incited David to count the fighting men of Israel? (2 Samuel 24:1 vs 1 Chronicles 21:1)

This is a very common argument that skeptics try to lob at Christians, but it’s really just another example of how the most popular Bible versions contain poor translations choices. The argument claims that 2 Samuel 24:1 says that God incited David to count the fighting men of Israel, whereas 1 Chronicles 21:1 says that Satan incited David. Here are the verses as they read in the King James Version:   “And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he moved David again

The Australian Fur Seal

The Australian Fur seal is a type of eared seal, and also the largest of all fur seals around the world! They are mostly restricted to the islands of the Bass Strait, Tasmania and Southern Victoria. Amongst the 10 established breeding colonies found in Australia, six of them are found right here in Victoria!  There are visible differences in appearance between the males and females, known as sexual dimorphism. Females can weigh between 50-120kg and are a pale fawn-grey colour with a pale-ye

Philip Island

Phillip Island is located just off Australia’s southern coast, which is about two hours’ drive from Melbourne. The landscape is a natural paradise, featuring outstanding coastal scenery (lots and lots of sandy beaches) and thick bushland. Its most popular tourist attraction is Penguin Parade; the home base for the smallest penguin in the world, the Little penguins. Declared Victoria’s first National Surfing Reserve, Phillip Island has endless coastal hot spots to choose from

There are No Contradictions in the Bible

The Bible contains 66 books that were penned by 40 different writers over the span of 1600 years. During that time, it was copied by hand from one generation to the next. It’s not surprising that some people would ask “Is the Bible free from error?”   Are there contradictions in the Bible? Atheists and skeptics want you to believe that there are and that therefore the Bible cannot be trusted. Do you know how to answer them? Many of them have never studied the scriptures on their own, a

Beautiful Victoria

The Great Ocean Road is one of the most beautiful stretches of coastline in the world to take a road trip. Just down the road from the Twelve Apostles Visitors Centre are the Gibson Steps. Walk down these steps to the beach for a close-up view. Here you can experience a new perspective on the power of the waves and the height of the rocks. You can even touch the rocks and feel how easy they crumble away. Take time to watch the water crashing around the base of the limestone stacks
