“Dear children, don’t let anyone deceive you about this. When people do what is right it shows that they are righteous just as Christ is righteous. But when people keep on sinning it shows that they belong to the devil, who has been sinning since the beginning. But the son of God came to destroy the works of the devil. Those who have been born into God’s family do not make a practice of sinning because God’s life is in … Continue reading →
It is forty years since Humanist Manifesto I (1933) appeared. Events since then make that earlier statement seem far too optimistic. Nazism has shown the depths of brutality of which humanity is capable. Other totalitarian regimes have suppressed human rights without ending poverty. Science has sometimes brought evil as well as good. Recent decades have shown that inhuman wars can be made in the name of peace. The beginnings of police states, even in democratic societies, widespread government espionage, and … Continue reading →
“Anyone who hates another brother or sister is really a murderer at heart. And you know that murderers don’t have eternal life within them.” – 1John 3:15 Hate feels like such a strong word. That said, do you hate certain people? You say no, however, perhaps we say no too quickly. I remember when I first moved here to Wichita. A family member instructed me not to live where all the black people live. Of course I paid no attention. … Continue reading →
“O give thanks to the Lord for he is good. His steadfast love endures forever.” – Psalm 118:1 How long something will last often determines its value. Generally speaking the more it costs the longer we might expect it to last. A cell phone may be a good example. Buy a cheap phone for under $50 and likely you don’t expect it to last more than a year or so. Buy the latest iPhone and you expect to use it … Continue reading →
“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Psalm 46:1 I remember a quote from the past. “There’s no place like home.” Sure travel can be refreshing, but when you arrive back home and climb into your own bed it sure feels good. Why does it feel so good? It feels good because home to most of us means safety and security. No worries that the guy in the next room may lock the bathroom door … Continue reading →
It is argued that the United States was never Christian in its basic ideals and values because the Constitution does not specifically mention Christianity. Is that true? In fact, the Constitution is not devoid of Christian references. For example, the Constitution acknowledges Sunday as a day of rest: “If any bill shall not be returned by the President within ten days (Sundays excepted) after it shall have been presented to him, the same shall be a law. . .” (Article … Continue reading →
Best Selling and Popular Christian Books A Woman Rides the Beast by Dave Hunt Dave Hunt’s books provides compelling evidence for the role of the Roman Catholic Church in the last days. Many will be turned off from this book, believing such ambitious claims to be too malicious for today’s increasingly ecumenical ‘church’. However, the astute student of history and scripture will realize that the devil does indeed appear as an angel of light, recognizing that what we see … Continue reading →
With “non-essential” business closed and millions of people driven to unemployment, citizens began to demand of their governments to re-open the economy and let people work and play again. Authorities were happy to respond with their solutions mixed with arguments about who gets the say of when America can be reopened and what hoops citizens must jump through to get on with our lives. Will only those “deemed” healthy by a statist government be allowed to return to work? What … Continue reading →
“Dear friends we are already God’s children, but he has not yet shown us what we will be like when Christ appears. But we do know that we will be like him, for we will then see him as he really is.” – 1John 3:2 “And all that have this eager expectation will keep themselves pure just as he is pure.” – 1John 3:3 In football you have the goal posts. And the object of the game is to get … Continue reading →
I would suggest the opening salvo of the New World Order in America occurred in 1913 with the passage of the Federal Reserve Act. This unconstitutional piece of legislation transferred America’s financial control from the U.S. government (the people) to privately owned corporate banks. The Federal Reserve remains today, along with its international central bank counterparts, the most influential entity controlling the global economy. Your ability to secure employment today requires you to be assigned a social security number. But, … Continue reading →
“When I am afraid I put my trust in you. In God, whose word I trust, in God I trust. I shall not be afraid. What can flesh do to me?” Psalm 56:3-4 I like how he puts it here, “when I am afraid.” All of us face fear at some point. Over and over scripture tells us not to be afraid, yet we are. Perhaps here we see how to respond to fear. Considering the picture in the text … Continue reading →
Founded in 1968 by Italian industrialist, Aurelio Peccei, the Club of Rome is a global think tank that deals with a variety of international political issues. Originally, the Club of Rome had defined the three major concepts that have formed the Club’s thinking ever since: a global perspective, the long term, and the cluster of intertwined problems they called “the problematique”. In other words, a new world order. According to its own website, the Club of Rome is composed of … Continue reading →
Many recognize the book of Revelation reveals that at some point in time the antichrist will be able to: Track and control all financial transactions, and That NO MAN will be able to buy or sell anything unless he has the mark of the beast. . And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, … Continue reading →
Coronavirus (COVID-19) was said to be a novel (new) infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Perhaps the first piece of dis-information we were fed by public health officials and the mainstream media was that Coronavirus was new and we knew very little about it. That little nugget alone was enough to scare millions of people. The fact is, though, Coronavirus is NOT new and we know quite a bit about it. Human coronaviruses are actually … Continue reading →
