The Truth has absolutely nothing to do with our feelings. Feelings do not dictate Truth. I'm not saying we should ignore or suppress our feelings. Rather, I am saying all feelings should first be held captive and submitted to God and His Word for processing through the lens of Truth.

Eternal life does not start when we die. Eternal life starts at the moment of Salvation, right here on earth.

Yesterday, I read something that I couldn’t get out of my head... “If your cup is always full of tea, there is probably no room for oil” Then today, my Bible reading included this: Psalm 133 How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity! 2 It is like precious oil… Continue reading Is your cup full of tea or oil?
