THE REAWAKENING OF GOD’S PEOPLE

What’s happening in the world is nothing short of a reawakening of God people. A reawakening to God as we come to him with our broken culture and sick society. For millions it’s like waking up to riding their bike down an ally they never intended to turn down in a city you didn’t don’t recognize. They have been awakened to the reality of God’s Word and His ways as THE TRUTH. This is not just in the United States but in Europe and all over the world.

For example, Italy just removed the title or designation “wife” from same sex marriage certificates. I love all people including homosexuals just as Christ does…and I love God’s institution of marriage more than man’s ways. We should be encouraged and energized to stand with and for God in the same way; not in anger against others. Let’s remember to share the truth of God in love with such lost people in an effort to reach them for Christ. This is but one example of what those committed to Christ can and are doing  to turn our upside down world right side up again. This is nothing short of wonderful and encouraging!

We should all be encouraged and energized to stand with and for God, not in anger against others, including homosexuals. Let’s remember to share the truth of God in love with such lost people in an effort to reach them for Christ. The movement is different from the individual remember. What Georgia Meloni and the Italian government has done is but one example of what those committed to Christ can and are doing to right side our upside down world. And again, this is nothing short of wonderful and encouraging!

Millions if not billions of people have finally awoken to a world turned upside down, where right is called wrong and wrong called right. I would assert that it’s the materially comfortable church and Christian body who ALLOWED the moral deterioration to fester and become mainstream in order to keep the “status quo”. Evil is never that good, it’s us not being salt and light that allow evil to fester and spread. Let’s not be frustrated but become resolute to to change our world back towards God and His ways. In doing so, let’s keep in mind that we we didn’t get here in a day and we won’t get back in a day. The Psalmist in 119 tells us that the road back to God’s ways is one of obedience that will change us in the process of making the world a better place for our children’s generation. For example, Psalm 119:1-8 says that because those who obey the Lord are “blessed”, the psalmist prays that he would be even more “OBEDIENT” (v.5). In our modern culture, obedience is seen as a degrading attribute, even within many so called Christian homes. But God demands obedience along side His grace.

WHERE DO WE START?

The best place for you and I to start is in grasping such obedience. Is found in Psalm 119: 9-16. These verses make clear that a thirst and hunger to take hold of and authentically follow the Word of God spiritually cleanses us. Yes, it cleanses us. Verses 17-24 says that an ever-increasing understanding of the Word (v.18) will “Open my eyes, that I may behold wonderous things about your law”. Embracing God’s Word and ways promotes a heavenly perspective for us as we pursue God in life. “Even though princes sit plotting against me, your servant will meditate on your statutes” (v.23). Even when tracked digitally, followed, watched and even persecuted, government officials have no power to stop you and I from meditating on God’s Word and statutes. If you feel helpless, please stop as that is nothing less than apathy and depressed thinking. Instead, let’s accept where we are at with great joy, as the Lord is waiting for you and I to embrace where He has allowed us to be in the present as authentic Christians.

Let’s zoom out and read Psalm 119 verses 20-24 below as the central point of today’s devotion. Please read these very short few verses.

Psalm 119:20-24 (ESV)

“20 My soul is consumed with longing

    for your rules at all times.

21 You rebuke the insolent, accursed ones,

    who wander from your commandments.

22 Take away from me scorn and contempt,

    for I have kept your testimonies.

23 Even though princes sit plotting against me,

    your servant will meditate on your statutes.

24 Your testimonies are my delight;

    they are my counselors.”

MY TAKE-AWAY for you and I today is that our souls will be consumed by God’s ways if we invest in His Word, prayer and Spirit. If we pursue living out God’s statutes, which are His guard rails for how we are to think, act, raise our children, work, and treat others we will see the world begin to tilt right upside again over time. I want to make clear that seeking and working hard to keep God’s rules should not translate or evolve into religious legalism but rather culminate into an authentic faith effort to keep God’s ways in obedience out of life. The Psalmist in 119 says that this is something we as authentic followers of God “LONG FOR”. We should strive to keep God’s statutes as best we can at “ALL” times, not just on Sundays. And when God’s rebuke comes, we should stop and embrace what God is telling and teaching us as we need it. We should covet God’s correction and statues in obedience as the proper direction to keep us from waking up disoriented-driving that bicycle down an ally way we don’t recognize, in a city filled with chaos, in an upside down world. It didn’t need to be this way but the reality is that it is at present.

The good news is that the liberal, godless world order has peaked and is on its way down. The damage has been done and more is to come as they claw their way down to the pit of hell if they fail to submit to God’s biblical statutes by way of relationship with Jesus Christ.

Psalm 119:22 says “take away from me scorn and contempt”. While things thin out, the world still scorns us with contempt for keeping God’s Word, His ways (statues) and His testimonies.  That is a good thing because it teaches us to stand strong in His Word and ways. And it shows us the true value of His ways, His Word and the blood of His son Jesus Christ. We have taken this for granted as a people and nation. Even though our leaders (princes v.23) sit plotting against us as God’s servants-WHAT CAN YOU AND I DO? We should meditate on and study God’s Word, get into daily prayer, and live out our faith in obedience to His ways. (vs.23). Let’s keep in mind that God’s testimonies are our DELIGHT and our COUNSELOR(S) for how we are to live out life; work order our marriage, be parents, treat our neighbors, govern our nation, and the list goes on.

CONCLUSION: We are strangers on and to this earth. It’s important to understand that the psalmist in Psalm 119 was not native-born but sojourner. Because of this, he needed the road map of God’s commandments in order to find his way back to his home with God (Psalm 119:17-20). We are no different. We are at the same exact place today the Psalmist was at thousands of years ago. God’s Word is our counselor. Keeping his ways (rules), statues is our guard rails in living out our life. The psalmist knew that his source of comfort was found only in God’s ways, not mans or his own strength. He asked God to “open” his “eyes that” he might “behold wonderful things from God’s “law” (v.18). No matter how difficult the psalmist’s circumstances were, he was determined to “observe” God’s “testimonies” and make them his “delight”, function as his “counselors” (Psalm 119:22-23). And we can and should do the same.

What’s happening in the world is nothing short of a reawakening of God people. A reawakening to God as we come to him with our broken culture and sick society. For millions it’s like waking up to riding our bike down an ally they never intended to turn down in a city you didn’t don’t recognize. We have been now awakened to the reality of God’s Word and His ways as THE TRUTH. This is not just in the United States but in Europe and all over the world. And this is nothing short of wonderful and encouraging!

FEAR NOT-Charlie Kirk's Death-Is A Spiritual Battle - 9/11/25, 7.24 AM

It's with great sadness that we mourn for the loss of a spiritual giant, Charlie Kirk-a man who lived his faith boldly. This is not a battle of the flesh but a spiritual battle. Let's be in prayer for Charlie Kirk's family and for the United States. And remember, FEAR NOT-this is a not a battle of flesh and blood...but a spiritual battle. I attached a brief video with my thoughts. But keep two things in mind: First, this is a spiritual battle. Second: This will galvanize the conservative and Christian movement by God in the United States and around the world.

The Problem Is Not God's Hiddenness-It's Ours!

Why Doesn’t God Make His Existence Unmistakably Clear to Everyone? One of the most common objections to faith is: “If God is real, why doesn’t He just show Himself beyond all doubt?” Skeptics ask why God doesn’t write His name in the sky or make His presence undeniable. But Scripture, reason, and the earliest witnesses of the Church tell us a different story: God has already made Himself known, yet it is humanity that hides. In other words, it's NOT God, it's us!

WHEN GOD REWARDS OUR GIVING

Jesus addresses when God rewards us for our good deeds. To be more specific, Christ discusses three pharisaic practices of piety. They include: 1) GIVING 2) PRAYER and 3) FASTING. Today, we are going to look at the first of these, which is when God rewards or does not reward our “GIVING”.

RADIO INTERVIEW-LOOKING BACK-Religious Freedom in 04-09-15

With the United States and world at a moral cross roads, today, we are looking back to an interview from 2015 whereby Steven was interviewed regarding "Religious Freedom". This is not a critique of any specific issues-but is a look back almost ten years (a full decade) to see where we came from. WHY? Becuase heading into 2026 we can look back to see where we are going. Again, the issue is not a critique on sexual orientation, but about religious freedom. People are people-and all people are sinners. Let's make sure to be compassionate with non-Christians in an effort to reach them for Christ while standing without compromise on the orthodox Word of God. Is that difficult. Yes it is.

GOD BLESS YOU!

SHOULD CHARLIE KIRK’S MURDERER GET THE DEATH PENALTY
By Steven Garofalo, September 12, 2025 (Copyright 2025)

THE DEATH PENALTY FOR CHARLIE KIRK’S MURDER?

Over the past week we have seen a young Ukrainian lady stabbed in the neck - murdered in cold blood by a deranged serial repeat offender who was let out of jail by writing a hand written note stating that he would be a good boy and not do that again. Her crime was simply riding the subway in Charlotte, NC. 

The criminal murderer had been arrested 14 times and let out by a judge that never passed the bar and I believe never even went to law school. She was a DEI activist judge. So what should have been his punishment?

Then there is the assasination of a Charlie Kirk. What should become of him once caught?

The Bible is very clear as to the answer to the question regarding punishment for first degree murder (speaking of humans only). I want to address this issue today for all of mankind, but especially for us as Christians. Before get jump in, I want to make clear that Christians should NEVER defy God’s Word in light of secular of secular thinking or how we feel about taking the life of a human being who pre-meditatively took the innocent life of another human being-who by the way are made in God’s image.

In order to make this not about my opinion, let’s go to what God through His word (the Holy Bible Scriptures) says from the very beginning of time as to what is to be the punishment or response administered to one who commits first degree murder. First degree murder by its very legal definition is to take an innocent life knowingly and premeditated. This is what I want to address in today’s episode. I want to digress for one brief moment in addressing the government authorities who have and continue to fail to do their job by simply incarcerating (putting and keeping criminals in jail) for the safety of the general, innocent public. That’s the more difficult question to answer-but I see it as negligence and possibly an accessory to homicide in many if not most all cases. 

So, the more more difficult question to answer is what ought be the legal and civil liability for judges, governors and other positions of power if those judges (who are acting negligently) results in the loss of human life, meaning the murder of innocent citizens by way of criminals that should have been locked up but were let out uprightly. This is gross neglegence of their part in letting these repetitive law breakers and monsters out of jail with zero cash bond or on things like a written note to behave like a good girl or boy as was the case in the North Carolina man-arrested 14 times, and who ended up murdering a young 23 year old Ukrainian woman on the Charlotte, NC subway simply because he was let out of jail on zero bond for writing a nice promise to the so called non-layer “judge” that he would stop being a bad boy and behave himself as some form of demented bond for his release. That question is yet to be debated but the Bible addresses that question as well when resulting in physical harm or loss or damage to property. Perhaps we will leave that for another day. Let’s get back to the Bible and the death penalty.

The problem with modern Christians is that they see the Bible as an ancient document, somewhat disconnected from biblical truths. In other words, many if not most modern people claiming to Christian don’t see the Bible as the ultimate Standard for right or wrong, but a nice book they can choose and pick from according to how they might feel about a particular subject.

The problem problem with modern “Christianity” is that it’s often distorted and it’s considered extreme by many for Christians to think and act biblically. 

My response this is that society and secular thinking in such cases is not moderate but extreme itself in allowing criminals to repeat crime at more extreme levels. Sadly, in some cases, such thinking results in murder and the loss of innocent life. This is what God gave us as to the consequence of shedding innocent blood in murder. Don’t get me wrong, mercy and forgiveness are very important, but we are to show mercy and forgiveness without forgoing God’s commands. We can forgive the person and still hold them to the physical consequence of the death penalty-and we should. Let’s now take a look at what God tells us about the death penalty from the very start of the Bible, starting in the Book of Genesis, chapter 9.

Genesis 9:5-6 (ESV)
“5 And for your lifeblood I will require a reckoning: from every beast I will require it and from man. From his fellow man I will require a reckoning for the life of man. 6 “Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed, for God made man in his own image.”

In other words, God makes clear in the very beginning of time-in the beginning of the Bible, that homocide (first degree murder) demands a punishment that matches the crime. The justification for capital punishment, here established, is the nobility of human life… “FOR GOD MADE MAN (and woman) IN HIS OWN IMAGE”. Thus murder shows contempt for God Himself as well as for one’s fellow man. What Genesis 9 is not saying is that the death penalty is to applied to a person who accidentally ran a red light and killed another person. That still hold consequences, it not the death penalty. That’s a different discussion for a different episode.

THE POWER TO ADMINISTER THE DEATH PENALTY

To be clear, the power to administer capital punishment does not lie with us as individuals or any entity outside of the authority and power of governmental. Romans 13:3-4 makes clear of that, saying:

“3 For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, 4 for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God's wrath on the wrongdoer.”

HOW SHOULD CHRISTIANS VIEW THE DEATH PENALTY?

FIRST: We must understand and accept that God has instituted capital punishment (the death penalty, not man.) It would be arrogant and presumptuous to think that we could instituted and/enforce or fail to enforce a higher standard than God commanded. After all, God is perfect and as such, has provided us the highest Standard of any being. And this standard applies not only to us as His created beings but also to God Himself due to the fact that He is all good and perfect.

God is Love as well Infinite in His essence and attributes. As such, He loves to an Infinite degree. We should also understand that God has wrath as an infinite degree, and He maintains this in perfect balance. 

SECOND: As Christians (and all human beings ), we must recognize and accept that God has given us government as the authority as we discussed for administering capital punishment, and determine when the death penalty should be applied according to God’s Word. This better ensures that innocent or people undeserving of the death penalty are not put to death wrongfully (see Genesis 9:6; Romans 13:1-7). 

IN CLOSING

Let’s be clear that it’s unbiblical to clam that God opposes the death penalty in all instances. On the flip side, Christians should not rejoice when the death penalty is employed. We can feel the satisfaction of God’s justice being implemented and upheld but we should not rejoice, meaning we ought not celebrate the death of another human being, despite their terrible crime(s). 

In the end, Christians out not fight against or picket or push back the government’s right to execute the perpetrators of the most terrible crimes, especially when involving first degree murder when it’s deserved.

It’s emotionally nice to want to extend mercy and many Christian’s defy God’s Word regarding the death penalty. In such cases, Christian are not only wrong but in defiance of God’s Word. The only answer I have as to why a Christian would do such a thing is that they have compitulated to culture insted of helping form, influence and change the world according to God’s Word. In closing I want to remind everyone of one simple truth in that God does not move to us as His created creation. Instead, we, mankind (meaning all humans-both man and woman) move to Him. He is unmovable. 

Malachi 3:6
“For I the LORD do not change; therefore you, O children of Jacob, are not consumed.”

AND SO SHOULD WE AS CHRISTIANS: 1 Corinthians 15:58 (ESV)
“58 Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain…”

Will you chose to see these verses and the entire Bible as your guide for living and what is right and wrong or will you pick which Scriptures you like or dislike and make yourself the god of the Bible as opposed to God?

Not Serpents of Skin, but From The Falsehood Of Sin: Uncoiling The Ending of Mark’s Gospel

Not Serpents of Skin, but From The Falsehood Of Sin: Uncoiling The Ending of Mark’s Gospel

By Del Potter, M.A.A. August 27, 2025

Opening Remarks

From the outset, this article is NOT contending whether or not the ending of Mark 16 should be included. Although, it is in my humble opinion that some of the strange language in the ending of Mark actually affirms the truthfulness of the events inserted into the ending of Mark. There are several striking words in Mark's longer ending (Mark 16:17–18):

“These signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up serpents with their hands; and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them...”

As a first impression, the imagery suggests a miraculous ability to resist snakes and poison. It is nevertheless important to note that serpents and poison consistently function within Jewish, Biblical, and early Christian thought as symbols of false teaching and spiritual corruption, not simply physical danger.


Serpents in Scripture: Symbols of Deception

From the beginning of Genesis through Revelation, the serpent is never merely zoological—it is the archetype of deceit. In Genesis 3, the serpent slithers into the Garden not to bite with fangs, but to inject Eve with poisonous doubt about God’s word. Later Jewish wisdom literature follows this thread:

  • Ecclesiasticus (Sirach) 21:2: “Flee from sin as from the face of a serpent: for if thou comest too near it, it will bite thee.”
  • Psalm 140:3: “They make their tongue sharp as a serpent’s, and under their lips is the venom of vipers.”

This same imagery flows into the New Testament:

  • Matthew 23:33: Jesus calls the Pharisees a “brood of vipers,” not because of biology, but because of false teaching.
  • 2 Corinthians 11:3: Paul warns that, just as the serpent deceived Eve, so false teachers corrupt the simplicity of Christ.
  • Revelation 12:9: John describes Satan as a serpent “And the great dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old who is called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.”

Therefore, when Mark refers to "serpents" and "deadly poison," his Jewish-Christian readers would have recognized the metaphor: heresy slithering into the church among the people with its false doctrine poisoning the entire church (2 Peter 2:1).


The Poison Of Heresy: A Dangerous Drink

The early Church frequently described heretical teaching as venom or poison. Ignatius of Antioch warned the Trallians:

“I therefore, yet not I, but the love of Jesus Christ, entreat you that ye use Christian nourishment only, and abstain from herbage of a different kind; I mean heresy. For those [that are given to this] mix up Jesus Christ with their own poison, speaking things which are unworthy of credit, like those who administer a deadly drug in sweet wine, which he who is ignorant of does greedily take, with a fatal pleasure leading to his own death.” (Letter to the Trallians 107 A.D.).

This language reflects the very pattern of Mark 16—poisonous teaching disguised as nourishment. The faithful, however, are promised preservation: “it will not harm them.” The believer, rooted in Christ, can discern and resist corruption.

No early Christian expressed this more vividly than Tertullian of Carthage (c. 200 AD). In his treatise Scorpiace, he likens heresy to venomous creatures:

  • Heresy “creeps into the church like a scorpion,” injecting spiritual poison.
  • The faithful must resist with the antidote of Scripture, wielded like the staff of Moses against the serpents of Egypt.

Tertullian believed that the danger was not from reptiles in the marketplace, but rather from false teachers within the church. Similarly, heresy pierces the souls of believers in a quiet and lethal manner, just as the scorpion stings unseen. As a result, he viewed Christ's promise in Mark not as a test of reckless physical stunts, but as a promise that the faithful will not suffer from the venom of falsehood if armed with the truth. As Paul rightly reminds his audience:

 "Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil (i.e. snakes & poisons)." - Ephesians 6:11


Mark’s Ending and the beginning of the Early Church

NT writers wrote within a culture steeped in metaphor. The early church never staged snake-handling rituals to “prove” faith. Instead, they testified by enduring persecution, refuting heresy, and preserving sound doctrine.

The apologetic force of Mark 16 is not spectacle—it is survival. The church would face vipers in pulpits, scorpions in councils, and poison in doctrine. Yet Christ promises: “These things will not harm you.”

Just as in the first century, serpents and scorpions creep into the church today—not in the form of reptiles, but in the form of false witnesses, compromised truth, and distorted gospels. The call of Mark 16 is not to chase miracles, but to guard against lies.

In a world full of theological poison, the believer’s protection is not daredevil faith, but faithful discernment: Scripture, the Spirit, and the witness of the saints.

“But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers [i.e. snakes] among you, who will secretly introduce destructive [i.e. poison] heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves.” - 2 Peter 2:1


Closing Remarks

The ending of Mark’s Gospel, far from a literal dare, is a prophetic warning and promise:

  • Serpents = false teachers.
  • Poison = heretical doctrines.
  • The promise = Christ’s people, if grounded in truth, will not be overcome.

Tertullian’s scorpions, Ignatius’ poison, Paul’s vipers, and Jesus’ own words unite: the greatest danger to the church is not fangs and venom in the field, but lies and venom in the pulpit.

In Christ, the Church endures—immune not to biology, but to blasphemy.

MAN'S PROBLEM-"HIDDENESS"
By Del Potter, M.A.A., August 16, 2025

The Problem Is With Man's Hiddenness Toward God, Not Vice-Versa

Why Doesn’t God Make His Existence Unmistakably Clear to Everyone?

One of the most common objections to faith is: “If God is real, why doesn’t He just show Himself beyond all doubt?” Skeptics ask why God doesn’t write His name in the sky or make His presence undeniable. But Scripture, reason, and the earliest witnesses of the Church tell us a different story: God has already made Himself known, yet it is humanity that hides.

God’s Self-Revelation in Creation

Scripture consistently teaches that God’s fingerprints are everywhere. The Apostle Paul writes:

“For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—His eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.” (Romans 1:20)

Psalm 19:1 echoes this truth: “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.”

Job reminds us that creation itself—beasts, birds, earth, and sea—all testify to the Creator:

“But ask the beasts, and they will teach you; the birds of the heavens, and they will tell you; or the bushes of the earth, and they will teach you; and the fish of the sea will declare to you. Who among all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this? In His hand is the life of every living thing and the breath of all mankind.” (Job 12:7–10)

God’s existence, then, is not hidden. It is written into the very structure of reality. As St. Athanasius later argued, creation itself acts as a universal witness, speaking of God’s power to every culture and language without need for words.

Why Does God Seem Hidden?

The real issue is not divine silence but human resistance. Moses records God saying:

“I will surely hide My face in that day, because of all the evil which they shall have wrought, in that they are turned unto other gods.” (Deuteronomy 31:18)

This is not a statement about God being unknowable but about mankind turning its back to Him. God’s “hiddenness” is a moral and relational reality, not an intellectual one. As Isaiah wrote:

“Your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God.” (Isa. 59:2)

Early Christians echoed this. Justin Martyr argued that those who live according to reason (logos) recognize the true God through creation and conscience. Clement of Alexandria explained that ignorance of God is not due to His absence, but due to the blindness of the soul enslaved to passions.

The Attributes of God are Revealed According To His Nature.

If God were to force belief by overwhelming proof, He would violate the very nature of faith and love. Love cannot be compelled; it requires freedom. Blaise Pascal later captured this well: “There is enough light for those who desire to see, and enough darkness for those who do not.”

The early Church understood that God provides evidence sufficient for faith, but not coercion. Origen taught that God “gives signs to those who are willing to see, but hides from those who shut their eyes.” This allows space for genuine seeking, humility, and love—rather than forced acknowledgment.

God Is Not Hidden—We Are

When people ask, “Why doesn’t God make Himself clear?” the biblical answer is: He already has. The problem is not with God’s silence but with our ears. The witness of creation, conscience, Scripture, and Christ Himself leaves us without excuse.

It is not God who hides, but man who hides from God—just as Adam and Eve once hid in the Garden. And yet, even then, God sought them, calling out: “Where are you?” (Gen. 3:9).

The same God still calls today through the beauty of creation, the testimony of Scripture, and the living Christ. The question is not whether God is clear enough but whether we are willing to see Him more clearly!

"For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully, just as I also have been fully known." - 1 Corinthians 13:12
