Here is a post of my topical study slides regarding the Kinsman Redeemer, Redeemer of Blood and the Cities of Refuge.
Turn on the notes or it isn’t going to look like much. This is a first draft, but I wanted to get this out there.
You call Me Master and obey me not,
You call Me Light and see Me not,
You call Me Way and walk not,
You call Me Life and desire Me not,
You call Me wise and follow Me not,
You call Me fair and love Me not,
You call Me rich and ask Me not,
You call Me eternal and seek Me not,
You call Me gracious and trust Me not,
You call Me noble and serve Me not,
You call Me mighty and honor Me not,
You call Me just and fear Me not,
If I condemn you, blame me not.

If you’ve made it to this page, I want you to consider something about God.
Consider that God wants a human family. As part of that family He wants YOU. He has wanted YOU since before time began and so you were created and born at just the right time. You possess the qualities that He knew you’d have. He gave you life so as to give you the opportunity to choose Him and thus be part of His human family He so greatly desires.
Notice He didn’t want someone LIKE you. He wants YOU. The creator of the universe wants You.

Ever read this account in Samuel and wonder what it might sound like. I found this recently.
Sometimes people ask why someone goes through grief and pain. One of the answers to that is that this is a fallen world. As such, pain and grief will occur. You don’t have to go looking for it.
Since pain and grief happen, another reason we go through it is because once through it, we can help someone else who is suffering a similar situation.
So, today I am talking about Kidney stones. If your favorite search engine brought you here, I hope what I write will help.
First of all, the good news is that Jesus is alive today.
That being said, there is a great deal of controversy around the crucifixion. One being the swoon theory. Here is a medical description of what happens during a roman crucifixion. It should put to rest the swoon theory. Warning: It is rather graphic.
