The Holy Spirit wants Christians “to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you” (1 Thessalonians 4:11).
(1) To “lead a quiet life,” is to be a “peacemaker” (Matthew 5:9), as Jesus said. Paul explained: “If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men” (Romans 12:18).
(2) “to mind your own business” (m.y.o.b.) means you deal with yourself. This does not cancel preaching the Gospel “to every creature” (Mark 16:15) but making their life’s decisions for them.
(3) “to work with your own hands” means self-supporting, not living off your parents. This sounds like spiritual “rugged individualism,” and that’s exactly what God requires! No statistical “millennials” here! Living like Christians ought doesn’t leave time for laziness, whining, or being supported by parents or government handouts! - February 7, 2022

Israel’s Promised Land was “a land for which the LORD your God cares; the eyes of the LORD your God are always on it, from the beginning of the year to the very end of the year” (Deuteronomy 11:12). The “end of the year” was as important as “the beginning of the year,” to God. The beginning is filled with anticipation, hope, and promise. Paul told the Corinthian Christians: “It is to your advantage not only to be doing what you began and were desiring to do a year ago; but now you also must complete the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to desire it, so there also may be a completion out of what you have” (2 Corinthians 8:10-11). It does no good to still want to do what we wanted to do a year ago. We must do it! - 12/27/2021

This time of year, many celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, but do not seem to understand some things. For instance, God's Son was born to a woman who did not believe in abortion. Though not the "mother of God," Mary was chosen to bring forth the body for God's Son. "The angel Gabriel" said to her: "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God" (Luke 1:35). Had she feared for her own life, reputation, or future at work, she could have been scared into an abortion, but instead, she feared God. No righteous person can consistently accept the birth of the precious Jesus and believe that abortion is alright. - December 13, 2021
