Maybe that’s a problem – sanitizing evil. No – lot’s of people won’t want to see it. But to some extent – maybe we should. We can’t smell it. We can’t get inside the head of the person who committed the act. And we think – “it’s bad”. But we still don’t really know.
Where Are You?
You probably think “Where Are You” is a person asking God where He is. Wrong!
Well – sort of wrong.
Lord, you have been our dwelling place. Moses wrote that in Psalm 90. It’s from the very first verse.
Ps 90:1 Lord, you have been our dwelling place throughout all generations.
But wait. This is part 2 of a series about “The End”. Why are we looking at the beginning? Well, it’s because what happens at the end is very much dependent on the beginning and the middle. And on one other thing. Honesty.

Do you want to read the Bible more than you have in the past? If so, you’re not alone. Have you been successful in reading the Bible more often? Then you are nearly alone. That’s very sad. Especially when you see what’s coming in this article and in the rest of the series We’re going

“But before all this, they will lay hands on you and persecute you.”
This is something most Christians would have read. Hopefully, we also remember. But, do we really believe it? Maybe we believe it, as long as it’s for someone else and not for us. You know -NIMBY – not in my back yard. Or even in my neighborhood.
The thing is, Jesus said this would happen. As Christians, how are we supposed to respond when Christians are persecuted? Let’s start by getting some context for the opening line.

I Never Knew You. Most Christians will recognize these words as the scariest ones in the Bible. They’re from a passage in Matthew. The thing is – while “I never knew you” can be spelled using the letters of the alphabet at the right, we cannot tell “who” never knew “who”.
Are We Alone?
While science looks for an answer, the Bible actually provides one. No – we are not alone. The puzzling thing about that answer is that too often we want nothing to do with it. Instead of asking whether findings are evidence of the God of the Bible, He is ignored while we look for someone / something else.
When we want something to happen but it doesn’t, sometimes we say “God is sitting this one out”. But is it really true that God is sitting it out? Is it ever true?
When we don’t get what we want, it’s east to blame it on God. We just claim that God is sitting it out. It’s easier that saying that maybe it’s our fault.
