Can’t Fight Reality

Posted on February 3, 2018 by ehurst

Off the Cuff: Vaccines

Posted on January 26, 2018 by ehurst

I suppose it’s about time for a fresh restatement on this business of vaccines. The concept in itself isn’t that bad, but it won’t work for everything. Give someone’s body a very limited exposure to a weakened version of some … Continue reading →

This Life Is Death

Posted on January 24, 2018 by ehurst

I want to refresh the logic here on something. Our American culture stoutly militates against the truth. Creation is not fallen; mankind is fallen. We were designed to be eternal creatures, placed in a Garden where not much else lives … Continue reading →

Adjust Your Perceptions

Posted on January 15, 2018 by ehurst

You cannot know Christ without your heart. It may well be you are His, bought with a price, but you cannot truly know Him without a mystical encounter through your heart-mind. It’s not a question of sentiment, though it will … Continue reading →

We Get Front-row Seats

Posted on January 6, 2018 by ehurst

Ax in the Forest

Posted on January 5, 2018 by ehurst

Covenant Book: 08 Not Green

Posted on December 28, 2017 by ehurst

We do not worship the creature, but the Creator. Redemption through Biblical Law restores us to our natural place in Creation. There is a sense in which we return to Eden by passing through the Flaming Sword of revelation. It … Continue reading →

Covenant Book: 07 How We Live

Posted on December 27, 2017 by ehurst

The American mind is exceedingly uncomfortable with the idea that reality is fluid and not static. Indeed, no two of us will experience reality exactly the same. That’s because reality is a person. While all of us will share enough … Continue reading →

Experiential Lore

Posted on December 25, 2017 by ehurst

Some of you are aware that Paul in particular, but a couple other writers in the New Testament, mentioned oral lore connected with the Old Testament. I suppose it’s what the Talmud should have been, and would have been before … Continue reading →
