THE PEACE OF CHRISTMAS

“I will plant them so that they may dwell in their place without further disturbance.” –2 Samuel 7:10 Mass Readings: December 24 First: 2 Samuel 7:1-5,8-12,14,16; Resp: Psalm 89:2-5,27,29; Second: Romans 16:25-27; Gospel: Luke 1:26-38 Listen to the Mass Readings The Lord promised David rest from his enemies (2 Sm 7:11). This promise of peace was surprising since violence was David’s “claim to fame” (see 1 Sm 18:7). From cutting off Goliath’s head to setting up Uriah’s murder, David lived an extremely violent life. People must have laughed when they heard David was promised peace. Nevertheless, the promise at first...

“WHAT IS TRUTH?” (see Jn 18:38)

“I have written you these things about those who try to deceive you.” –1 John 2:26 “Who is the liar?” (1 Jn 2:22) Satan is “the father of lies…the truth is not in him” (Jn 8:44). Our secular culture believes the lies Satan is constantly feeding them: You won’t go to hell; there is no hell. In fact there is no sin. If it feels good, do it. Sexual acts outside of marriage are not a sin; everyone does them. Marriage is not just between one man and one woman and “same-sex” marriage is legal, therefore, it’s not sinful and...

FAMILY FEUD

“The Child’s father and mother were marveling.” –Luke 2:33 The holy families of today are walking through a mine field. One false step, and the family is blown up. Christian parents must be Josephs who know exactly when to leave and where to go. Parents must be divinely inspired and guided because today even more Herods are searching for their children to destroy them. Parents must know and live the Bible or they will be hopelessly confused, and their families will suffer. Family prayer has never been more necessary. Wives must be submissive and husbands must love their wives (Col...

Daily Reflections / Message of the Day

He will restore everything

“Elijah is indeed coming, and he will restore everything.” –Matthew 17:11 Jesus said that Elijah would restore everything. What a statement! Everything? How could someone restore everything? Jesus said that the restoration of everything was begun by John the Baptizer (Mt 17:13), who came “in the spirit and power of Elijah” (Lk 1:17). The Power for this universal restoration is the Holy Spirit. Consequently, John was “filled with the Holy Spirit from his mother’s womb” (Lk 1:15). John began the restoration of everything by turning “the hearts of fathers to their children” (Lk 1:17). This universal restoration is still in...

Y’ALL COME

“To whom can you liken Me as an equal? says the Holy One.” –Isaiah 40:25 No one equals God in anything. Consider God’s strength; He is unequaled in strength. Almighty God is so strong that He made and sustains the millions of stars which span light-years in space (Is 40:26). Almighty God is willing to share His unlimited strength with us. “He gives strength to the fainting; for the weak He makes vigor abound” (Is 40:29). When God strengthens old or weak people, they can outrun, outwork, and outlast young folks. Those who let God renew their strength “will soar...
