The Rant

A former co-worker coined the phrase when I offered to let her listen to one of my sermons on CD. She said, "Sure, I'll listen to Tom rant about Jesus." At first it sounded funny, but the more I thought about it the more it seemed to fit. That's what we, as preachers, pretty much do. We rant about Jesus. In 1 Corinthians 2:2 the Apostle Paul says, "For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified." That's it. Jesus. Who He is, and what He did, and what it means for us. That's my job, or calling, or anointing. To preach Christ. Jesus is in every book of the Bible. The entire volume speaks of Him. If you don't see Jesus, you're looking at it wrong.

So that's what I'm going to continue to do in this forum: Rant about Jesus.

My hope is to Rant every night by 9:00 pm, so check daily for new blogs.

Milk part 4

08/28/2018 19:33

The milk of righteousness is what gives us strong, healthy teeth and bones. So we can eat the meat of the Word, and so that we can stand firm in who we are and what we have. That's why the milk is for babes: It gives us our foundation. Because you HAVE to start with your identity. "I am the...

Milk part 3

Drinking milk helps your bones grow, so you can stand tall. This is important in light of Ephesians 4:14, "That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive."...

Milk part 2

Strong healthy teeth and bones, right? Bones help you stand tall, and teeth help you eat. Let's look at eating today. Because once you get those strong teeth--that foundation of righteousness... that you ARE the righteousness of God in Christ--that's when you can move onto something more...

Milk part 1

Milk. Does a body good. Strong healthy teeth and bones. Helps you stand. Helps you eat. Goes great with cookies. But what are we talking about, in a Spiritual sense? Look at Hebrews 5:13, "For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe." There's a...

The Promised Land part 5

08/24/2018 19:20

Let me see if I can make this make sense. Genesis 1:26 says, "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth...

The Promised Land part 4

08/23/2018 19:40

Once you understand that the land that flows with milk and honey (righteousness and revelation) was promised to us... and we already have it, because the promise was fulfilled on the cross... you can stop seeking in order to find something that you haven't got, and you can start seeking to...

The Promised Land part 3

08/22/2018 19:54

God promised us (Spiritually speaking) a land flowing with milk and honey. Righteousness and revelation. The revelation that we are the righteousness of God in Christ. And we took that to mean, "I need to do this, this, and this in order to get what's coming to me." Which is so twisted. If someone...

The Promised Land part 2

08/21/2018 19:43

God came down to us so that He could bring us up to Himself. That's called reconciliation. Not demanding that someone, somehow, improve themselves enough to get up to where you're at, but rather bringing them to where you're at. Basically, I'm trying to say God promised us that land that flows with...

The Promised Land part 1

08/20/2018 19:46

I think I want to really slow down and look at this idea of the Promised Land. You know, the one described (first) in Exodus 3:8, "And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto a...

Taste and See part 5

08/19/2018 19:54

I don't remember what we were going to eat, but someone asked Logan if he wanted some. And he said, "I don't like it. Learned that the hard way!" Which was his way of saying he'd tried it. Which is all I, as a parent, expect him to do. I'm not one of those "eat three bites or else" types of...
