Verse of the Day

4 Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!5 Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Why do bad things happen.....

One of the questions you hear quite a bit in the world today is, "Why do bad things happen to good people?"

What an accusation.....are we entitled to a life of "good" things? I've been thinking quite a bit of how in this country in particular, we seem to think we are entitled to so many things....if certain expectations are not met, well then, there is something wrong and it certainly isn't any of our doing because we are "good" people and "deserve" better. Deception lays in this perspective.....a deception that is dangerous to our souls.

Romans 3:10

10 As it is written:
“There is none righteous, no, not one;

Are any of us good?  No, we are not.

Here is a short message from Pastor Voddie Baucham from his sermon:
The Supremacy of Christ and Truth in a Postmodern World
