02/01/17 THE REASON
I post a lot. I know that. I try to make it a mix of serious, social and silly, because that is who I am. I also realize that my constant posting bothers some folks, especially the serious articles, either because they don't agree with me or because they are looking for less stressful posting. I understand.

Although I may not be into the games, the recipes, the pets and some other things, as much as some of my friends, I think it is great that they are able to use social media for their own purposes.

My serious posting is meant to be helpful. I realize that we are bombarded by all kinds of issues and viewpoints on television, magazines, newspapers, radio, the water cooler, the backyard fence and the internet. I try to provide a Biblical response to the current events. I try to encourage and remind and inform believers, concerning the Biblical view of today's hot topics. I am not trying to shove anything down anyone's throat. But with our society being in constant change and believers being in constant battle, I want to be helpful to those who are interested in my viewpoint.

There are others who do an excellent job of informing. I think I have something to offer because I have been dealing with Liberalism in theology and government and education and daily life, from a Biblical and personal point of view for over 50 years.

There are facets of the Christian life that do not change, but we as Christians are either going to address a changing world in a meaningful way or we are going to miss our opportunities. My posts are intended to help believers know how to live a faithful and consistent Christian life in this changing world.

With so much being thrown at us that is contrary to the Christian life and message, I am offering support to those who are open to exhortation. The following passage is my basis for being relentless.

Titus 2:11-15
(11) For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,
(12) Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
(13) Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
(14) Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.
(15) These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
