The Danger of Self-Deception (Revisited) Robert Wurtz II Let them alone: they are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.

The Source of Strife First Published (September 2014) Robert Wurtz II But if you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth.

Tares Among the Wheat Robert Wurtz II Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. But when the blade was sprung... Continue Reading →
The Way of Cain Robert Wurtz II But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.
