Can people rely on you? Do they have a reason to trust your word? Are you a dependable person? Dependable means capable of being depended on, worthy of trust, and reliable. The operational definition of dependability is fulfilling what you consented to do, even if it means unexpected sacrifice. Dependable people do what they say […]
An essential key to understanding God’s word and its design is through the meaning of biblical numbers, their connections, and patterns. When we search them out and understand them, they reveal the handiwork of God. The arrangement of some numbers is evident, while others are not and require in-depth bible study. The parts found do […]
Once was a king who could not sleep. Much as he tried to sleep, it alluded him. He thought to himself, the only way I can sleep is if someone was to read for me. The king called his servants, who brought him the book of the Chronicles records, hoping that reading would make him […]

Okonkwo’s story is sad, full of one misfortune to another, and things do fall apart for him. Looking at David’s tale in the title of this Psalm, things do indeed fall apart for him. His son […]
Since the first century, the church has discussed the finer points of theology, the trinity, the perseverance of saints, baptism, and the like. Predestination is one such topic, a source of many debates in the Christian community. I am not writing for or against some of the issues bought out by this biblical concept but […]
