New Testament Prophecy

June 2nd, 2009

So, I was in a healthy debate with my brother on this. He feels that modern day prohecy is simply speaking the Word of God (the Bible), and not containing any prediction, as there is no new revelation.

I, on the other hand, feel that prophecy, being a gift of the Holy Spirit, is something more. While I will agree that there will be no new revalation, God may give you a word to pass on to another, just like in the old testament. If prophecy was just professing the word of God, how is that a gift? Can’t anyone (saved or not) read the words aloud and be a “prophet”? Maybe I am just splitting hairs. I am pressed for time, so I have no scripture to back up my point at the moment, but please feel free to comment and leave scripture to back it up.

Purchasing a home makes my eye twitch

June 2nd, 2009

So, we are in the process of buying our first home! Yeah! While I am excited about reaching the next stage in life, the entire process makes me stress out. If you know me, that is a big deal… I am usually calm, relaxed and full of fun (and food). But for some reason, buying a house literally makes my eye twitch. It has been twitching for almost two months now, and I am ready to poke it out with a pen.

On the brighter side, I can’t wait to have a home that my kids can grow up in and remember as their own. Praise God for the opporunity He has given us!
