So if you haven’t gathered I am religious but one thing that drives me mad is when people force their religion on others. Now, disclaimer, I don’t think it’s wrong to share your faith. I don’t think it’s wrong to talk about your faith. When you truly believe something and it’s a good thing you’re …

The Love of Money Corrupts
10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. 1 Timothy 6: 10 (KJV) This verse often gets misinterpreted and I also misunderstood it for the longest time. I used to think that the verse …
Reading the Bible (repost)
This is a repost as I have deleted my secondary site. I am slowing releasing the posts I liked from there here. It'd be much for me and you if I just dumped them here all at once. So I finally read the whole Bible last winter. It was strange to be able to finish …
Are Names Self-Fulfilling Prophecies?
When reading the bible I’ve often wondered if names are self-fulfilling prophecies. I mean the amount of times people have lived out the meaning of their names. Take the story of Jacob and Esau. Or the names of Joseph’s brothers. Or how God changes people’s names when they have a new purpose, like how he …
The Glorious Melanin in Joseph King of Dreams!
The thing that peeves me off the most about movies based in Egypt is the white washing. I never thought about it as a kid as I didn't know better, although there were always live action movies that just pissed me off! Have you ever seen those really old movies based on Cleopatra or something …

Vengeance is God’s
To me belongeth vengeance, and recompence; their foot shall slide in duetime: for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste. Deuteronomy 32: 35 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. Romans 12: 19 What do those …
Pray Ceaselessly: Let’s discuss
So the phrase "pray without ceasing" comes from the bible verse, 1 Thessalonians 5: 16-18: 16 Rejoice always, 17 pray without ceasing, 18 in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. As you can see "pray without ceasing" is part of an uplifting sentence in 1 Thessalonians chapter 5. I feel like these verses …
God is Love
So last Sabbath we had a really good sermon. The preacher was concise and she really illustrated her point well and I have to say I agree with what she said. The gist of what she said is that we shouldn't get too caught up in knowledge. In the SDA church and perhaps even other …
Have Strength
The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? Psalms 27: 1 So in church this was the main verse the pastor used. It's such a good verse I don't even need to write a lot to explain it. In this world …
When you’re feeling Ecclesiastics too much
When I read Ecclesiastics when I was younger I was not expecting it to be so despairing. It's like Solomon just had this epiphany and is like "The world is meaningless!" At first I didn't get it but then I was having a deep day (I've been having a lot of them lately) and I …
