ByDr. Mark December 5, 2025 0 Comments
“Don’t let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the spiritual powers of this world, rather than from Christ.” (Colossians 2:8 NLT Version) God can aid you in escaping the influence of the caving-in culture in which you live, either physically, psychologically, or spiritually.

His parents went to Jerusalem every year at the Feast of the Passover. And when He was twelve years old, they went up there according to the custom of the feast; and as they were returning, after spending the full number of days required, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem, but His parents were unaware of it. Instead, they thought that He was somewhere in the caravan, and they...

“In My Father’s house are many dwelling places. If it were not so, I would have told you, because I am going there to prepare a place for you.” (John 14:2 The Amplified Bible) I enjoy watching HGTV shows, especially the ones where couples are looking at options for a new home.

“When you go through deep waters and great trouble, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown! When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up—the flames will not consume you.” (Isaiah 43:2 The Living Bible) We have heard the term “when” used to refer to something in the future; a time yet to come. “when I get older,”...
