Posted on October 19, 2017 by ehurst

Unchained Vision, Part 4

Posted on July 31, 2017 by ehurst

On the one hand, our greatest threat is The Cult [PDF]. On the other hand, the weapons of our warfare are not fleshly (2 Corinthians 10:2-6; Ephesians 6:10-13). Our tactics are not human, but are consistent with moral truth. Once … Continue reading →

Alien-nation

Posted on July 2, 2017 by ehurst

I tell ya, folks, I’m feeling more and more like an alien every day. Sometimes I’ll have a little spare time and read sites that claim to offer “Christian news” stories. Some are distinctly liberal, offering globalist propaganda. The others … Continue reading →

Posted on February 26, 2017 by ehurst

We Are Not of This World

Posted on January 22, 2017 by ehurst

We are trans-dimensional creatures. The third pillar of Christian Mysticism is disentanglement — don’t let the context own you. Instead, discern how God owns it and you are His feudal servant, executing His judgment on your dominion. Your primary concern … Continue reading →

Impassioned News

Posted on November 28, 2016 by ehurst

News that builds from passion isn’t journalism; it’s just propaganda. I take very seriously my assertion that this world is mere shadows, the reality is far more flexible than Western minds can grasp. And I take seriously that perception is … Continue reading →
