With a renewed mind, we can hope to develop a spiritual “sixth sense” that alerts us when something doesn’t feel right. Now, this feeling is not the Word of God and it isn’t infallible. There are times when something doesn’t feel right because I ate too many tacos. But, when we have immersed ourselves in God’s... Continue Reading

Say a man draws a portrait of a face with a hilariously large nose, and you critique him for doing so. It will do you no good to pull out a book titled “list of body parts found on the face” because “nose” surely will be there. The painter may even have memorized the chapter... Continue Reading
