DUNCAN/Loving kindness, forever

If you have your Bible, I'd invite you to turn with me to Psalm 118. I want to look at three things today.

THOMAS/Trimming obese government

Fifty years ago when Ron Paul (father of Sen. Rand Paul) was running for Congress from Texas, a billboard featured an obese Uncle Sam with the caption “let’s put big government on a diet.”

DUNCAN/All peoples

If you have your Bible, I would invite you to turn with me to Psalm 117. It’s a short psalm but it’s filled with huge, worldwide truths. And as we read it, I want you to be on the lookout for three things.

THOMAS/Dems self-examine, but not the media

 It’s been a week since Donald Trump’s landslide re-election and some Democrats are using words like “realignment,” “self-reflection” and “regret.”

EDITORIAL/Rick Scott for Majority Leader

As the Republican Party prepares to take control of the U.S. Senate, Sen. Rick Scott of Florida emerges as the clear choice for Majority Leader.

DUNCAN/I love the Lord because

If you have your Bibles, I’d invite you to turn with me to Psalm 116 as we continue to make our way through the fifth book of the psalms.

THOMAS/Is it too early to talk 2028?

What can a columnist do when his deadline is Election Day and he doesn’t know who has won the presidency and other offices (and we likely might not know for days, or more, if the polls are right about a virtual tie)?

DUNCAN/Not to us, O Lord

If you have your Bibles, I’d invite you to turn with me to Psalm 115. I want to point out several parts of the passage as we look through it.

GETTING THE MESSAGE/Christ will establish his visible reign

In the previous article, we observed that Revelation 11:15-19 is a passage that takes us into the future, when, after the last trumpet sounds, the consummation of Christ’s kingdom is accomplished in his coming again in judgment.

THOMAS/Johnson optimistic on GOP wins

If Clark Kent had a twin brother he might resemble Speaker of the House Mike Johnson. That includes Johnson’s mild-mannered nature.

EDITORIAL/Pray for Mayor Mary

Madison Mayor Mary Hawkins-Butler has been a stalwart for the good people of Madison — even Madison County, — and she is asking for our prayers as she faces the biggest battle of her life.

GETTING THE MESSAGE/The hope of Christians

The 7th trumpet in Revelation signals the end of the present world and the hope of Christians, who wait for the consummation of the Kingdom of Glory in Christ.

DUNCAN/Skipping mountains and fleeing seas

If you have your Bible, please turn with me to Psalm 114.

THOMAS/Harris appeals for anti-Catholic vote

A political rule of thumb is that candidates should never offend a large group of voters, especially close to an election.

GETTING THE MESSAGE/Last days of the gospel era

Revelation 11:7-13 points us to the last days of the gospel era. In verse 7, the two witnesses are symbolic of the church’s witness to the world of the good news of Jesus Christ.

DUNCAN/There’s no one like him

As we continue our way through the fifth book of the Psalms, I’d invite you to turn with me to Psalm 113. We’ve said many times that the psalms never ask us to worship God without telling us why we ought to.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Many Madison County residents are finding themselves under the threat of encroachment by incompatible buildings and land uses along a portion of scenic Highways 463 and 22 near Flora.

DUNCAN/Living in the right kind of fear
