In Washington, DC, it will be legal to possess up to two ounces of marijuana or to posses three mature plants for personal use that cannot be sold. If there is nothing wrong with marijuana, why can't a resident posses three ounces and four mature plants?

It is fascinating how, in this day of social decline, being strung out on dope is acceptable but attempting to earn a buck isn't.

You will find in DC that it is just as illegal to be a compensated tour guide without a license…

Dearly Beloved,

OUR TIME ON EARTH IS BRIEF

“Our time on earth is brief; the number of our days is already decided by [God]” (Job 14:5 CEV).

The death of Reverend Tunde Taiwo (1969-2015), the senior pastor of Zion Baptist Church, Ilorin, Nigeria, is another evidence that anybody can die at any time without prior notice. Here was a man who left the seminary where he was doing his postgraduate study early in the day for a couples' retreat of pastors and interacted with many…

Hear Both Sides before You Judge (Daily Encouragement Plus with Ike Idegbema) “Our law doesn’t judge a man before it hears from him and knows what he’s doing, does it?” (John 7: 51) Bible Reading: Proverbs 18: 1-13 Not too long ago, my cousin’s ex-wife wrote to express her disappointment over my attitude towards her and my cousin’s divorce: that it seemed I had joined the rest of my family to support my cousin without hearing her side of the matter.

17 But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;

According to Southern Baptist Missions Board President David Platt, Christians ought to set for themselves a financial spending cap.

The justification for this principle can be found in the admonition that godliness with contentment is great gain.

Interestingly, Platt is not providing this advice so that you might provide better for yourself in the rocky times ahead likely to result from a declining economy.

Dearly Beloved,

DO YOU LOVE ME?

“The third time [Jesus Christ] said to him, ‘Simon son of John, do you love me?’ Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, ‘Do you love me?’ He said, ‘Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you.’ Jesus said, ‘Feed my sheep’” (John 21:17 NIV).

As a matter of fact, most of the followers of Jesus Christ were following Him because of what they could get from Him (see John 6:26). No wonder, when it seemed to them that His…
