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.

This is the best, most simple way I can say what I'm trying to say: "We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death" (1 John 3:14). The journey is not from bad... to good. Good and evil are on the same tree. The tree...

The journey from glory... to glory is one that doesn't make "natural" sense. It is a journey of self-discovery as we discover ouraelves in Jesus. As we discover Jesus in ourselves. Look at Ephesians 3:19, "And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, tha ye might be filled with all the...

Where we get to is directly affectd by where we come from. Now, having said that, it's the journey not the destination. This never-ending life long journey into the heart of the matter... is a journey of self discovery. By which I mean discovering who we are by discovering who Jesus is. He is our...

There are a couple of verses in the Bible that speak of going FROM something TO something. And generally it's the same thing at the beginning and the end. Which makes sense when you consider the glorious truth that Jesus is the Alpha and the Omega. HE is the beginning and the end. LOVE is the...

Garbage in, garbage out. What you fill yourself with is what will overflow out of you. What you see... is what you be. So what you look at--or set your affection on--is vitally important. If you surround yourself and fill yourself with God-things... you'll be so saturated with it that you won't...

Keep your eyes on the prize. Those are words to live by. Very rarely do great things happen by accident. You have to be purposeful. You have to work for what you want. And I'm not talking about salvation in the sense of how we know works and labor don't work in the Spiritual sense. I'm talking...

What you see is what you be. It's really that simple. What you magnify in your life is what will manifest in your life. What you give your three T's (Time, Talent, Treasure) to is what has importance and prominance in your life. What you feed is what will grow. That's why it's so important to SET...

Once upon a time the people of Israel were "wandering" in the wilderness. Actually, God was leading them step by step in order to bring them fully and completely out of slavery and bondage, and teach them how to live. But I digress. While they were on this camping trip, there came a point where...

What you see is what you be. That's something fundamental that we need to understand. What you magnify in your life is what will manifest in your life. 1 John 3:2 tells us, "Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we...

Stand Fast part 5

Standing fast IN faith. Standing fast ON love. I can't stress enough how interconnected these two things are. Look at Galatians 5:6, "For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision avilath any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love." Think about that. It's not anything external. It's...
