                                                                   A Man and God’s Word. Beware of Religions and Traditions. They brought to the “Pharisees” the man who had been blind.   (John 9:13) The man answered, “Now that is remarkable”!   You don’t know where he comes from, yet he opened my eyes.   We know that God does not listen to sinners.   “He listens to the godly person who does his will”.   Nobody has ever heard of opening the eyes of a man born blind.   If this man were not from God, “he could do nothing”.   (John 9:30-33)   (The Pharisees Could Do Nothing.) God and His Word Saves, Religion and Tradition Does Not Save. Our Daily Nugget is about Jesus, the Pharisees, and a man who was born blind and Jesus healed him from his blindness.   The Pharisees were the “R...

                                                                         Anxiety Free.   We Do Not Have To “Live With Anxiety”. Casting all your cares (all your anxieties, all your worries, and all your concerns, once and for all) on Him, for He cares about you (with deepest affection, and watches over you very carefully).   (1 Peter 5:7) We, Can Be “Anxiety Free” or “Filled with Anxiety”. Our Daily Nugget is an appeal from Peter to the elders and the flock of that day, and to the elders and the flock of today, for us to “Cast ‘All’ Our Cares on Jesus”.   When we cast all our cares onto Jesus, we are Free to Care and to Love.   Trusting Jesus is Freedom, Trusting Self is Prison.   Trusting Self leads to Anxiety. Anxiety - To choke or constrict.   The New Testament Greek word...

                                                                           Bribe Money. The Bible Condemns “Bribe Money”. The wise man is turned into a fool “by a bribe”; it destroys his understanding.   (Ecclesiastes 7:7)   “Campaign Financing” is a Government built on “Bribe Money”. What Does That Say About Our Government? Our Daily Nugget is telling us the Destiny of Ones Who Take Bribe Money!   It says, that it turns the ones who is taking the Bribe Money into “Fools”. We live in a nation that is built on “Bribe Money”; at the Federal, State, and Local Levels; the Bible says, people who accept Bribe Money are turned into fools.   Is our government wise or foolish; “According to The Bible”?   We have built “Bribery” into the very “Fabric of our Society”.   A governmen...

                                                                                         Perfect Obedience. “Is To Love”. The “most important one”, “answered Jesus”, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.   Love the Lord your God with all your heart (mind) and with all your soul and with all your strength.’   The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’   There is no commandment greater than these.”   (Mark 12:29-31) So in everything, “do to others what you would have them do to you”, for “this sums up the Law and the Prophets”.   (Matthew 7:12)   To Love is “To Fulfill” the Law. Our Daily Nugget is Letting us Know That; Perfect Obedience is To Love our Neighbors as...

                                                                           Forbearance. “Love” is “Forbearing” with One Another. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, “Bearing” with one another “In Love”.  (Ephesians 4:2) It is Impossible to Love, without a Spirit of Forbearance.   When we Forbear, we give the Holy Spirit “Time” to Show us The Way. Forbear - To stop; to cease; to hold from proceeding; to pause, to delay, to abstain. Forbearance - A fruit of the Spirit that allows for compassion, and self-control. Our Daily Nugget is Paul telling the Church at Ephesus and us, that Jesus requires us to “Forbear One With Another”.  To forbear one with another allows “The Spirit of Unity” to work.  If we are not Unified we are Divided.  In Unity is Strength, i...

                                                                      Crucify the Flesh! Morality - Immorality!   One Leads to Life, One Leads to Death. Blessings of Morality, the Curses of Immorality. The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft, hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like.   “I Warn You”, as I did before, “that those who live like this will not inherit the Kingdom of God”.   But the fruit of the Spirit is “Love”, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.   Against such things there is no law.   Those who belong to Christ Jesus “Have Crucified the Flesh” with its passions and desires.  ...

                                                                              Humbled! God Humbled Pharaoh. For each man cast down his staff, and they became serpents.   But Aaron’s staff swallowed up their staffs.   Still Pharaoh’s heart (mind) was hardened, and he would not listen to them, as the Lord had said.   (Exodus 7:12-13) And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he and all his servants and all the Egyptians.   And there was a great cry in Egypt, for there was not a house where someone was not dead.   “Then” he summoned Moses and Aaron “By Night” and said, “Up, go out from among my people, both you and the people of Israel; and go, serve the Lord, as you have said, And Be Gone, And Bless Me Also”!   (Exodus 12:30-32) God Is Still Humbling Pharaohs Today.
