Concerning Hobbits

Well, this isn't really concerning Hobbits nor am I trying to plagiarize the great Tolkien. This is merely my first attempt to start a blog in the year 2016 - Yes, I have had many blogs throughout the years but none of them really took flight. The purpose of this blog isn't to really take 'flight' but to actually share my personal walk with Christ and what I find useful as a newly born-again Christian. It is also fitting that I start this in the week of the 23rd in the month of October because a long long time ago, that's when life first started for me.

I'm Moses Hoole. Ethnically, I am Sri Lankan. Professionally, I am a Design Release Engineer (Co-op) at a leading automotive manufacturing company in North America and the whole world. I'm also a student and always will be one. I'm a senior at arguably one of the most reputed universities known to the Automotive Industry in North America. However, all of this amounts to nothing because personally, I am a filthy, sinful human being with a constant need for a savior and I have one in Jesus Christ, thanks be to Him.


I come from a family of six generation of Anglicans. To quote Moses' prayer from Psalm 90  , God has been our hiding place for all generations. God chooses deliberately, purposefully, the weak things of the world to confound the strong, as Alistair Begg preaches. This is seen throughout the Scripture but also rings true in my family history. God's been gracious to bring servants for Him from our family, all six generations of it's known existence. That said, my nuclear family isn't Anglican - more on that later.  It's only because of God's grace have we've survived history, especially that of my nation.Now that I've shared murky details of my origins with my audience, I think it's time to start blogging.

Remembering Charles R. A. Hoole

Seventeen years ago today, Charles Ratnamuktan Alban Hoole, known affectionately by many as Charles/ Muktan, met face to face with His Saviour Lord Jesus Christ.

Well Done, Corinn

The Trinitarian God of the Bible is the most basic and majestic Being in the universe. He is basic in that He is foundational to everything that exists. From Him, and through Him are all things . The laws of physics and reason exist, because He is. He is majestic in that He is far beyond the comprehension of any created being, whether angels or human beings. His ways are unsearchable and inscrutable. He is in the heavens, and He does all that He pleases according to the council of His will. He does all things for the glory of His name. He is loving and He is just. He is holy and He is merciful . He is sovereign over all things in life and death, and there’s no maverick molecule in the universe. He is also a relational God. Between the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit exists Tri-unity, a love that cannot be described in anthropomorphic terms. To showcase that love, and His other attributes, God sent mankind into the world. We were created to draw and drink from Him. But we for...

Resolutions for My Tongue.

If you've known me awhile, you're probably aware of my speech issues. Over the past few months God has been teaching me to “bridle” my tongue, to use James’ language.  Like most learning periods, this surely has been a trying one. But thanks be to God for His continuous patience with me. He is faithful to have not let me continue in my tendencies to be dishonest, prideful, and hurtful with my tongue. I am thankful that His love for me is steadfast, and that He does not let me flee the fold – for He bought me for Himself at the cost of Jesus Christ. I am thankful for the Word of God that thoroughly convicts me and help me grow.  One of the means God has used me to help me grow is the book of James. Interestingly, I had to give a talk at a campus ministry tonight on James 3:1-12. James, the half brother of Jesus, addresses what is the longest section on the tongue in all of New Testament: “Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who ...
