None of Them Lost

The crowd saw Jesus and still didn't believe. So He told them who would come: everyone the Father gives Him. He won't throw out one of them, and He'll raise every one on the last day. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-10-24-none-of-them-lost/

Can a Christian Dress Up on Halloween?

Dress up on Halloween if you want. Dress up in July too. But a Christian doesn't play the witch, the medium, or the demon, not even for one night. You don't wear what God calls an abomination as a joke. Costumes are fine. Celebrating darkness isn't.

(Deuteronomy 18:10-12) (1 Corinthians 10:20-21, 31) (Ephesians 5:8-11) (Romans 14:4-6, 23) (Colossians 2:15) (1 Thessalonians 5:21-22)

Drawn by the Father

The crowd grumbled because they knew Jesus' family. He told them their problem wasn't Nazareth. It was their hearts. Only the Father brings a man to the Son, and the Son raises every man the Father brings. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-10-25-drawn-by-the-father/

Why Doesn't God Heal Everyone?

God healed the man born blind for His glory. He left Paul's thorn in place for His glory too. Healing is not plan A and sickness plan B. Both come from the same wise Father's hand, and neither one means He lost.

Which Idols Should Our Kids Smash?

A pastor handed kids hammers to smash statues of Mary. The kids in that room were never going to pray to plaster. They will be tempted by money, applause, power, and people. Smash the wrong idol and you teach the wrong lesson.
