MENTAL HEALTH—THE REAL DEAL, PART 2

      In our last thrill-packed adventure, I brought up that one’s mental health is nothing to laugh off.  At the root of disruptions in one’s mental state can be found the following short list: Unforgiveness, Anger, Jealousy, Greed, Selfishness, Rebellion, and a rejection of God’s rules contained in the Scriptures.  One’s spiritual state often plays into one’s mental state.  Get the spiritual right through Jesus Christ and the Word of God, and you’ll be amaze

MENTAL HEALTH: THE REAL DEAL, PART I

      I have been monitoring the discussions, advertisings, medications and talking head sermons in the ‘mainstream mess’ about the subject of Mental Health.  Unfortunately, the item missing from the equation is the following: The responsibility of the individual in protecting their own ‘brain box’ through reflection on their spiritual health and own actions.

      Hear me out on this one.  Many ‘mental health’ episodes could be avoided—for the good of society

TWO SAYINGS AND TWO SINS

      Of the quotes I have been blessed to have collected over the years, these two have impact on this month’s column.  They come from two different eras but are pretty much on the same side of the same coin.  The first saying comes from one of my heroes, Booker T. Washington.  Here is his quote: “A whining, crying race may be pitied…but seldom respected.”

        Let me break this first saying down as it reflects upon our race in these last days.  While many of our youn

PORNOGRAPHY—THAT CORRUPTING SPIRIT

     In continuing with my series concerning some of the spiritual warfare which men—and women—are facing in these last days before the return of Jesus Christ, an examination of the dangers of pornography is in order.  To sum up this column, let me just say this: pornography corrupts everything it touches, from the inside out.

     I’m not writing a scholarly paper on this subject.  Nor am I writing a paper to expose a lot of the ‘dirty’ things about pornography

AS SIN CONTINUES TO EXPAND—PART 2

      In opening this next installment, let me be clear about a few things.  First, sin—by the KJV Bible definition—is ANY missing of God’s mark.  There are at least 175 sins described in detail.  Some preachers estimate that there are anywhere between 300 to 500 sins covered in scripture.  It doesn’t matter if one has committed one sin—or 101 sins.  In God’s sight, you commit one, you are Hell bound UNLESS you have yielded yourself to Jesus Christ and can have

AS SIN CONTINUES TO EXPAND—PART 1

      Caught an interesting news item from Chicago recently.  It seems that some in that city’s legislative body—composed mainly of Democrats—want to put the issue of whether Chicago remains a ‘sanctuary city’ up for referendum before the citizens of Chicago in the spring of 2024.  Unfortunately, most of the Aldermen did NOT support such as move, as illegal aliens have flocked to Chicago—and pushed Black folk out of the way for jobs, education, social services,

THE BLACK STAKE IN DAVOS

      Back in the 1990s, there was a rather cute toon by the name of “Pinky and the Brain”.  Pinky was the dumb rodent; the Brain was super smart.  The running tag (or gag) line for the series floated this way: “Gee Brain, what do you want to do tonight?”  “The same every night, Pinky…try to take over the world!”

      I thought of that toon while watching an interesting gathering earlier in 2023.  In case you may have tuned in late, another annual edition of the Davos sh

TOXIC LIES AGAINST MANHOOD—PART 3

      One of the overriding themes of this series is that the mainstream mess—including social media—makes its bones putting forth bad news.  Good or uplifting news is not valued by those who oversee editing and putting forth the ‘agenda items for the day’.  Instead of informing the public (as American media outlets ‘used’ to be about) the media is all about indoctrinating the public to support their agenda—not yours.

      And, because of the money—their support

THINK TWICE ABOUT SIDING WITH THE OPPRESSOR

      Let me warn you up front.  You might want to get your smelling salts out, as we are going to take the ‘long way’ around the mountain on a very sensitive topic.  Please make sure that your trays are in an upright position and keep your torches and pitchforks among your carry-ons as we take off into the wild blue.

     Interesting thing about the purchase of Twitter by Elon Musk.  Not the fact that he had the money to buy the ‘Twitterverse’, but who
