PUTIN AND POO

Aesop is a legendary figure of whom many ancient writers speak of.  In his early years, he was quite possibly a slave, but eventually earned his freedom.  He was arrested in the Greek city of Delphi for insulting the Delphians, and thrown off a cliff to his death. Aesop was said to have written 725 fables which still exist and which were meant for entertainment purposes, but which also convey a moral or practical message to readers.  In this post (Putin and Poo)...

Is it almost time?

Exit, pursued by a bear

EXIT, PURSUED BY A BEAR

Wars and rumors of war In His Olivet Discourse (Matthew 24), Jesus spoke of the end times, specifically of “wars and rumors of war,” warning that these were signs that the end was approaching. Indeed, we’ve had perhaps hundreds of such conflicts since He first spoke these words. So, war is nothing new. What is new is the ability of one person with his finger on the “button” to destroy civilization. I recently heard Ret. US Army General Wesley Clark,...
