Why Christians should be involved in the government process. By : Sylvia Huffnagle Christians should get involved in goverment because unless godliness prevails, God cannot maintain the covering or protection over the nation. If ungodliness prevails this country goes down. Grace Beyond Salvation By : John Telman There is a persistent debate within the church about the place of grace and works. It is my contention that the reason for this is simply a poor understanding of what grace really is. Prophecies Indicating a Literal Millennial Kingdom By : ReturningKing.com It is the belief of some groups that the idea of a Millennial Kingdom (or “Messianic Kingdom” - a literal one-thousand year reign of Christ on Earth) is a product of the book of Revelation, only. This belief, contrary to that of the author, is that the book of Revelation is metaphorical in its content and should not be taken literally. Thus, they reject the idea of a literal Messianic Kingdom on Earth. If they had stood in my council . . .

Why? Because God is the Father of Jesus in the eternal re Gays Need Truth Too - A Call to the Church By : Norma Klingler Have you ever heard the expression that if a lie is repeated enough times it will eventually be accepted as truth? A lie will always be a lie. One of the biggest lies permiating the church today is that some people are born homosexuals. There isn’t such a thing, folks!! To accept this lie is to accept that the perfect God who calls homosexuality detestable, made a mistake. An American Muslim President?

This is a perfect example at which to take a look when considering the Bible's relevancy for today.

Brown It seems when most Christians think of fire from a biblical standpoint Satan or hell come to mind.

Newton’s Third Law and the Death of Wisdom – Secularisms Sin is No Sin By : Rev Michael Bresciani It doesn’t take a team of scientist and a ten year study to understand the basics of cause and effect.

By : Angel Who is a Christian? Should a Christian be defined by its nature, character or conducts? Who is a Christian? Is a Christian also a believer? The Bible says even the Devil believe and he tremble. Salvation is in Jesus Alone By : Terry L. Brown Christianity is often denounced as being exclusive rather than inclusive because it teaches that salvation comes only through the acceptance of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

The truth is: Salvation is in Jesus alone. Are Catholic beliefs and practices Biblical?" By : Shaila D Touchton The issue concerning any church and its practices should be “Is this Biblical?” If a teaching is Biblical (taken in context), it should be embraced. If it is not, it should be rejected. God is more interested in whether a church is doing His will and obeying His Word than whether it can trace a line of succession back to Jesus’ apostles. Jesus was very concerned about abandoning the Word of God to follow the traditions of men (Mark 7:7). Traditions are not inherently invalid…there are some good and valuable traditions. Again, the issue must be whether a doctrine, practice, or tradition is Biblical. How then does the Roman Catholic Church compare with the teachings of the Word of God? Blessed is the man !

Divine Accomplishment versus Human Achievement By : Windmill Ministries What do you have to do to go to heaven? All world religions attempt to give an answer. They have instructions for their believers to do certain works or say certain prayers. Only Christianity teaches that we cannot earn our own salvation. We are saved thanks to God’s work, not ours.

Develop A Winning Mindset By Re-inventing Your Mind By : Henrietta Elegunde We usually become the way we think: Proverbs 23:7a - "For as he thinks in his heart, so is he." If we focus on the negative aspect of life, we would become a negative person. However, if our focus is on winning, we will eventually become winners. We always invite into our life, what we focus on. To become transformed, we have to keep renewing the way we think. We have to keep confessing that we are winners. This is a continuous process. The Key To Supernatural Success By : Henrietta Elegunde Worry means to be anxious, troubled, or uneasy. It is a strong feeling of anxiety that causes unhappiness.

We can manifest something by believing that it is going to happen. There are two ways we believe something will happen. We believe true faith (What we want), and through fear (What we don't want that we believe will happen). Dealing With Anger By : Henrietta Elegunde Anger occurs when things don’t go according to our expectations, for instance, when we expect people to be polite, and they are rude. Anger can also be a result of perceived loss of control over something that is important to us. Our anger is sometimes justified, because of other people’s poor behavior. However uncontrolled anger weakens us, and makes us lose focus on what is important. It is in our best interest to manage our anger. Only Christianity Offers a Complete Plan of Redemption By : Windmill Ministries How can you know whether you will to heaven when you die? Just be a good person? Do more good deeds than bad things?

By : Al Boyce God has wired us to find joy in loving others. Amazingly, He even wired us to find joy in watching someone love others. The Lord’s Table Talk By : Josprel There is an immense gulf between love that emanates from a momentary emotion and love that is demonstrated as an act of our free will, especially when we know the love will cost us something. Most often there is no emotion involved with the latter kind of love. It is a disinterested love, freely given, sometimes at great cost to the giver. Such disinterested love for our fellow believers, flowing forth without reservation, marks those who are genuine followers of Christ. The Conversion of Saul to Paul By : Windmill Ministries The great apostle Paul was initially a zealous persecutor of Christians. What made him change his mind? Only Jesus’ resurrection can explain his dramatically changed life, his commitment to Christ and ultimately his martyrdom. Only Jesus Claims to be God By : Windmill Ministries Christianity is unique among all religions. Only Jesus of Nazareth, Christ, claimed to be God and provided evidences through His miracles, fulfilled prophecies and ultimately the resurrection to prove it. The founders of the other faiths at best claim to have revelations and be prophets, their evidences are not every convincing. When the god of Empiricism Fails – Science Blocks Its Ears By : Rev Michael Bresciani In a recent report out of one American university students were advised not to debate with creationists about the origins of life. Debates have become a great medium just to bring the latest findings of creationism to the table. Secularisms academicians are now saying the best way to null the message is to ignore both it and the messengers. Does anyone remember why we call them universities? The Ark of Noah By : Windmill Ministries Did Noah really ever build an ark? Many Christians have been scorned, because they believe the account of the ark. But what does the evidence tell us? The most intriguing evidence the truth of the ark account might come from the specification of the ark itself! Genetically Based Sin By : Josprel Some time ago, this author read with interest the comments someone sent to a large urban newspaper. They had to do with the writer's concern on the implications of genetic research on the prevailing ideas regarding sin and man's free will. Is humanity really responsible for some acts condemned by the Western religions? A United Methodist bishop also was quoted as wondering if sin is centered exclusively in free will. A Superlative Forgiveness By : Josprel It’s been observed that forgiveness without forgetting is like vultures feeding on a dead carcass. It contaminates our prayers. If we want God to answer our prayers, we must forgive. Jesus coupled God’s forgiveness to our forgiveness of others.
