Believe it or not

Whether you believe it or not, the universe doesn’t revolve around us. All creation revolves around the all-powerful, sovereign GOD. The Bible tells us that “the heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” (Psalm 19:1) Last night I had the opportunity to view what the naked eye cannot see via a very powerful telescope.

Our GOD has revealed Himself to us, not only through creation, but has given mankind a special revelation called the scriptures, or the Bible….

Vote, vote vote

Dear Editor, This upcoming election will be one of the most important in my 79-year lifetime and probably yours. Our current federal government is the most dysfunctional government ever. We have legislatures that want a more socialistic government and some leading to Marxism. The problem is do they really know what this could lead to? I have had the privilege of serving in our military and serving two – two – tours in the area of the Middle East, living and government traveling in Turkey, Pakistan, Iran North and East Africa.
