(Intro & Bio) - THE RIGHT WORD© with Brother Scott :
Start here first ... if you want to know what is important to know about me and why I write and speak weekly the things that I do! Except for my siblings and other relatives who call me by my first name (withheld!), I am known by all others as either Scott Riaubia or Brother Scott. The name originates from Lithuania (makes me wonder if that’s why my last name ends in “ia”).
I was born in 1955 on a day when the country puts up our stars and stripes in June. I am a red-blooded American male, father and grandfather, and have been married to my bride of 42 years. I am a military veteran of the Viet Nam era, although not a U.S Army combat veteran. After leaving military service I spent the next 27 years working for some of the largest corporations in America, generally in financial services in one way or another. ![]() (Oct 26 2025) - “FAITH DOESN'T MAKE YOU SAFE”
PORTERVILLE, CA -- The key that fits the door of God’s heart and realm and the saving of our souls is faith in God. Yet for the untrained and inexperienced Christian mind there are as many other expectations of what faith is to do for us as there are books in the New Testament. As I look back over my journey in following Jesus, I see at least two important aspects of our faith. On the one side is the faith God gives us as a gift to believe the Gospel and for the grace through faith to receive all the other things that He makes available to us beginning with our new birth.

PORTERVILLE, CA -- I don’t know how it is in other U.S. states but in California (at least in the past) for a married man and woman to be granted the dissolution of their marriage (a divorce) in most instances it must officially be declared before the court that they have “irreconcilable differences”. Meaning : Significant conflicts or incompatibilities between spouses that cannot be resolved and make it impossible to stay together. There are fundamental disagreements that make marital reconciliation impossible, leading to the end of a marriage. This legal standard of a no-fault divorce functions separately from decisions on assets or custody. (Oct 12 2025) - “CHEAP CHRISTIANITY”
PORTERVILLE, CA -- When I was a boy, I remember things that were poorly made or easily broken that said on the back of them “Made in Japan”; not any more. Japan has become the manufacturer of very good quality things and of some of the highest technology on the planet. In more recent years we have seen most things that are imported, and most things today are imported, coming now with the words stamped on them “Made in China”. For the Chinese people this is good (I suppose) as it provides them employment to make things the world wants or needs and buys ... (Oct 05 2025) - “ THE THIRD TEMPLE REVISITED” --- {Part III}
PORTERVILLE, CA -- As born-again ones from Heaven true believers that practice following Jesus daily, we are resurrected spirit with a soul and at this present time of our existence, we have a temporary physical body. Now understand this: The Lord inhabits our mind and heart—not by His Spirit but by His written Word that is engraved upon our hearts as we read it and hear it spoken by others that exhort and teach us under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit—that is as we read it, hear it and also live it. |
