IndyWatchmantop secret! "The secrets of the Lord are for those that fear Him" Psalm 25:14 SECRET: Sin Destroys our ability to "understand." It's an extremely exciting time to be a Christian* in the United States of America, here in the initial stages of the 21st century. Why? Because the seeds of "last days persecution" are being […]
There is a very prominent teacher within the ranks of the organized Christendom that teaches that the blood of Jesus had no intrinsic value in and of itself, that the term “the blood of Christ” is only a metaphor, or figure of speech, for the death of Christ on the Cross. He claims that Christ’s […]
Does any of this sound familiar?
We are surrounded by deception, misrepresentations, trickery, stagecraft, illusions, sleights of hand, delusions, perceptions, opinions, marketing, advertising, and much wishful thinking, but not truth.

This is something I put together awhile back, but has never found its way into the mailbox. As I was sitting at my desk I pulled it up and read it. It spoke to me very loudly; I’m not sure why? I’m not going through any particularly trying times at the moment. So, maybe it […]
