Two days ago, I posted a link to a new article of mine comparing first century Jewish Nationalism to current American Nationalism. After posting it on my main Bible Teaching website, it dawned on me that it fit quite well into my other webite, a blog addressing racial issues. I wrote an introduction in that website to the article and the introduction is the length of a short article itself and is worth reading. ![]()

Although it looks like what I posted two days ago, the picture when you open the link is of Ronald Reagan and his 1980 presidential campaign slogan, "Let's Make America Great Again." That gives you a flavor of the introduction. Here's the link:

I’ve not posted any articles on my Bible teaching website in quite a while, but I thought today would be a good day to post one I have been working on recently. Its title is, “Jewish Nationalism in the First Century and American Nationalism in the 21st Century.” At about the halfway point as I was finishing up the description of Jewish Nationalism, I wrote this brief paragraph to transition into a description of American Nationalism:![]()

“All of that said, seemingly supported from Scripture, Jewish Nationalism still was destined to fail. It could not be otherwise, human logic and reason notwithstanding. But whatever else may be said by way of comparison, Jewish Nationalism had far, far more support than does American Nationalism. So, let’s look at the comparison between the two types of Nationalism, separated by two millennia.”![]()

North Texas where I live is now in the beginning stages of a dangerous ice storm. Reading about it reminded me of a very similar one that hit us almost exactly four years ago. That one I remember well, because it was a part of my early cancer journey. I describe it in Chapter Three of my book, “My Roller Coaster Ride with God and Cancer.” ![]()

Of all the books I have written, that one has sold the least copies. I am shocked at that fact, considering how common cancer is, affecting each of our lives in fairly direct ways. I have the names of 31 people with cancer on my prayer list, four of whom were added recently. ![]()

In contemplating the approaching ice storm, I just reread that chapter in my book. It, and the rest of the chapters, have so many practical and helpful spiritual insights in them that it is sad to me that more people don’t take advantage of it. If you or a loved one close to you has cancer, you really should consider reading the book. You won’t be sorry.![]()
