Just a Thought

For better or worse, sometimes I only have a single, unqualified thought. This seemed as good a place as any to drop off some shareable quotes, poetry and a nuisance idea for those who need a shot.

A Place Among the Wicked

It is Finished - Sermo Humilis

Isaiah 53 tells us that they had given Jesus a place among the wicked. At least that was their plan. ...And they made his grave with the wicked (Isaiah 53:9) This was not a problem for Jesus and is another example of the irony we find throughout Matthew 27. They seek to put … [Read more...] about A Place Among the Wicked

Filling up on the Good Things - Sermo Humilis

The man who has ruined his life through sin has a hard time fitting into the community. The woman who has kept herself publicly pure, tends to fit in well.

Rejoicing in Judgement

Which is a good reason to be on the right side of history. We rejoice when the court … [Read more...] about Rejoicing in Judgement

Clothes Maketh the Man

Clothes Maketh the Man - Sermo Humilis

It matters what you wear. It mattered to God in the Garden of Eden and it mattered to the sons of Aaron. John wore camel hair, Jesus was robed in purple and we have been clothed in righteousness. Apparently, what you wear matters enough to bear frequent mention throughout … [Read more...] about Clothes Maketh the Man

How Things Get Bad - Sermo Humilis

In a recent podcast with Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson1 gave this response to a question along the lines of, "How on earth did we get to this point in our culture?" People often look at their lives, their families, friends, marriages or countries and wonder, "How did things ever get … [Read more...] about How Things Get Bad
