Cursing and Blessing

Posted on October 13, 2015 by ehurst

I tell you the solemn truth, the person who believes in me will perform the miraculous deeds that I am doing, and will perform greater deeds than these, because I am going to the Father. (John 14:12 NET) I spent … Continue reading →

Evangelical False God

Posted on October 21, 2014 by ehurst

It never stops. Every where I turn, I keep encountering the same blindness, though expressed in different ways. And the people who wallow in that blindness rarely seize the hand offered so they can be pulled out. Mercy cannot be … Continue reading →
