Why Study Theology If You're Not a Even Pastor?

Somebody asked, "Why take so much interest in theology when you're just a children's department teacher? You're not a pastor, are you?"

First of all, in my humble opinion, I think that question is a bit of nonsense. To say that only pastors should study theology is somewhat (... więcej)

About Christian Perfection

Somebody (who is presumably a charismatic "Christian" of cultish kind) called me a "false teacher" just because my view about Christian perfection seems to be different from his own view.

I do agree with him that true Christians strive for spiritual perfection (Matthew 5:48). (... więcej)

You Only See Me When You Need Me!

A friend in Facebook complains in her post, "Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot, I only exist we you need something." I'm not sure whether or not she actually meant to address it to somebody. But I can only imagine if God will say the same complaint to us. And to be honest, I sometimes wonder (... więcej)

A Personal Reflection on Father's Day

As I start to write this composition, I honestly don't know what to say here. Hmmm... Should I start by saying, "Happy Fathers' Day, Dad"? Or, "I love you, Dad and God bless you"?

Nonsense. First of all, Dad won't be seeing this post for the simple reason that he (... więcej)

Why Gamble?

♫ Throw a quarter in the sky, before it falls to the ground,
Gotta' call heads or tails
Throw my nickels and my pennies and my dimes
In the wishing well ♫
- Christon Gray

Throwing all that you got in "the wishing well" with hopes of "winning somehow" as you take (... więcej)

When a King Sheds Blood, a Kingdom Is Established

As a young learner of history, I have observed that bloodshed is always involved in founding a new nation, kingdom, or state. Figuratively speaking, every kingdom or nation in current existence was founded on bloodshed.

Throughout the history, we learn about kings and statesmen who shed great amount (... więcej)

Faith and Common Sense

Somebody said, "Faith is believing in things when common sense tells you not to."

I honestly am not sure what the author of that quote meant by that. But as for me, I believe that a wise believer uses his faith without having to absolutely abandon common sense. And I just can't understand (... więcej)

The Love of Money

Somebody asked, "If money is the root of all evil, was it money that caused the devil to be evil? If it was, how was it possible when there weren't yet any form of money in existence back then?"

Actually, it's not the money itself that is the root of all kinds of evil. Because (... więcej)

Does God Want Us to be Perfect?

I read the Bible and learned that God wants to perfect us.

Let's be clear there. I'm not saying God wants us to be perfect or else He'll not love us - that's called legalism. What I'm trying to say is, God, in His great loving kindness for us, wants to perfect us by His grace. (... więcej)

In Dealing with the "Lucky" Chain Messages

Just keeping it real, it kinda' pisses me off when somebody passes a chain message to me which says, "Share this and you will have good luck; ignore this and you will have bad luck." And what would piss me off all the more is that those who share things like that to me are... *sighs* grown (... więcej)
