Peace Maker – JoshuaSuccess in anything requires a lot of input as anything short of bringing out your best in any situation can cost a lot more than was ever put in.

Civil Magistrates and God’s Law – Part ThreeThe only hope for this nation is found in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. As Believers we must proclaim the forgiveness of sin in Jesus and the reconciliation of all things to the Father in Him (Colossians 1:20). If our Christianity is merely personal piety then it is not the kind of faith that God will use to turn this nation around.

Savings, Aborted – Jobs, Aborted – Benefits, Aborted – Retirement, AbortedWe can remain lethargic and not get involved with the choice a person makes, even though her or his choice affects our life. God let Lucifer make the choice. God provided the entire world for Adam and Eve to enjoy. God only asked that Adam or Eve not partake of the “fruits” of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.

Mary knew that she needed to be married to a man to have a child when she questioned Gabriel. Today we claim to not know even when life begins.
Keep Christ in ChristmasFamily, Christmas is and has always been a special time for us. It is a celebration, the birthday of Our Lord Jesus. It is a time of rejoicing, eating too much at times, and giving gifts from the heart, gifts that have meaning for us to the ones we love.

My mother and father took me to church and it was easy for me to adapt to these beliefs and this way of thinking. Remember, by now I had been going to school for a few years and believed everything that my teachers were teaching me.

Is it important for you to know the answers to questions about your religion? Doesn’t this make sense, if you believe in something, shouldn’t you at least know something about it?
The Cyclical View of HistoryMost Christians are products of the progressive education system developed by John Dewey in the middle of the 19th century. The religion of Secular Humanism has been a controlling force in America since John Dewey and his allies gained control of the education system. Because the religion of Secular Humanism leaves its devotees with no absolute standard or purpose…
2012 and the RaptureWith all the media-inflicted hype created recently by the 2012 movies, there has been an attempt to tie together the rapture of the church of Jesus Christ (as predicted in scripture), with the 2012 prophecies of the Mayans, Nostradomus, and others. Are these two prophecies one in the same?
How Important is it For a Good Christian Spirit to Tithe?I am not going to list here all the scriptural references to tithing as there are numerous other articles on the internet that have done that extensively already, and a good Christian Concordance will offer a comprehensive list. Suffice to say there are several, the majority of wish appear in the Old Testament.
