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.

Delight and Desire part 1

"Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart" (Psalm 37:4). Seems pretty straightforward, right? If I delight myself in the Lord then He will give me what I want. Come on guys. That's the Old Covenant in a nutshell. "Do good and be rewarded." On this side of...

Going wth the flow is all about rest instead of works and labor. It is all about letting what's inside of you (the love of God... the love that IS God) flow out of you simply by believing that it's in there. Because here's a very important truth: What's in you comes out of you. What you believe is...

Go With The Flow part 4

I know I use this example all the time but I absolutely love it. Here's the picture: We are a garden inclosed. Everything we need is already inside of us. But, in a sense, it's trapped inside. Because we don't know what's in there. We don't know who we are so we constantly struggle to be somebody...

Go With The Flow part 3

10/25/2014 13:31

It's the economy of the Kingdom: The river of living water flows out of us, even as we flow in the river of life. We live Jesus' abundant, everlasting, eternal, Resurrection Life by letting Him live it in and through and as us. Look at Revelation 22:1-2, "And he shewed me a pure river of water of...
