Mystery/Thriller Monday

Charlie was a crime reporter, but he got fired. So, he decides to become a PI. And, while on a stakeout trying to catch someone’s spouse cheating on them, he meets Friday. She’s 16, and, doesn’t want to go into foster care. She needs to find her father, but, they’re estranged. So, Charlie and his wife (and their baby, although, while she is wicked cute, she probably doesn’t have an opinion on Friday yet) let her stay with them, while Charlie looks for her Dad. Except, of course, while Charlie thinks it won’t be too bad, it’s not that easy. And, as he gets deeper looking for her father, everything becomes infinitely more dangerous for everyone.

This was a funny book, but, also an interesting mystery too. And then there was Callie (the cute little kiddo). Just it was an all around fun fun read.

Two Books that I didn't like

Dear Fellow Reader, I am going to do something out of the ordinary for me today. I am going to tell you about two books that I did not really like. I hate to do this because someone put all their effort into writing a book, and I hate to belittle that effort. Something along the lines that if you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all. The Story That Wouldn’t Die by Christina…

Equal partners in His wrath

John lists seven classes of people seeking to escape God’s wrath. Just as God shows no favoritism (Acts 10:34) and welcomes people from every tribe, language, people and nation into His kingdom (Rev. 5:9), people of all economic, social and political stripes choose to reject Him and thus partake as equal partners in His wrath. John specifically mentions kings, the nobles (statesmen and high civil officers), military commanders, the rich, the powerful (a reference to physical strength), slaves and free persons.

Those who are most feared on earth become the most fearful, and those who are from the lowliest castes receive no special mercy for having rejected the exalted place offered them in Christ’s kingdom. “No authority, nor grandeur, nor riches, nor valour, nor strength, would be able to support men at that time; yea, the very poor slaves, who, one would think, had nothing to fear, because they had nothing to lose, would be all in amazement at that day [Matthew Henry]”

All are sinners; all have rejected God’s Son and His provision for their sin through His sacrificial and substitutionary death on the cross; all have taken part in abusing His grace and persecuting His people; and now all of them together know that His righteous wrath is falling equally on them.
