    Why Study Bible Prophecy

    The Biblical definition of 'prophecy' is not confined to predicting the future. When the Holy Spirit fell upon King Saul (1 Samuel 10:9-10) he 'prophesied' - meaning to glorify the Lord, to speak wisdom and to illuminate the Word of God with His truth. Typically, then, the prophetic word...

    The next fabled enemy for 2015 on in

    I would add to BlackManInc's remarks and ask the reader to remember the 4th amendment. The Fourth Amendment (Amendment IV) to the United States Constitution is the part of the Bill of Rights that prohibits unreasonable searches and seizures and requires any warrant to be judicially sanctioned...

    Free speech

    I seriously doubt the Pope will address congress and suggest anything at all resembling what one might call 'traditional values' or 'religious policy'. His track record so far suggests the pontiff will rubber stamp legislation making gay-anything the primary life style of choice (it isn't...

    $$$$ CRASH ??

    Ok, so you've no doubt heard the hollering about the dollar crashing in the fall of 2015. Even Mr. Putin seems to have bought that line. That was before his own currency, the ruble, took a 50% dive. I've sifted through a handful of the gruesome financial predictions for our future and put...

    Is America Becoming A Force For Evil In The World?

    It's true the American intelligence community has created virtually all the major terrorist organizations on the planet. The pattern follows the first one created - the Nicaraguan Contras. For the most part we seem to have created a bunch of Frankenstein monsters. We wind them up and let...

    Why do the Repuclicans have such a hate on for universal healthcare in America?

    Republicans hate universal health care? First of all it isn't universal. There are lots of cracks in the system and many people fall through them and get nothing. I do not believe you will see the health care system repealed. It is now an established bureaucracy and from now on all we'll...

    Trying to make sense of everything!

    Are you really interested in the truth, or has your personal philosophy been diluted by media hype proclaiming Islam to be a "peaceful religion"? Who controls the planet's finances? I assume you refer to the dollar as a reserve currency. That position has been rapidly eroded in recent...

    Free speech

    Seems to me such a resolution would make all religions other than Islam illegal. Since Islam claims to be the only valid religion, any belief or statement otherwise would be blasphemy and therefore punishable under the law. It would make the beheaders knife very attractive for those who hold...

    Dear Church, Here’s Why People Are REALLY Leaving You

    The article has hit the nail on the head. Church, Inc. has become a business franchise. In some denominations that is exactly the language used - franchise. The religious country club has become hollow, devoid of meaning and purpose and completely distant from God. In several major...

    Famine Coming Soon ?

    I think the greatest famine has not been mentioned. It is a famine of the Word of God. Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD. Amos 8:11 In the last days...

    How close is the Seven Year Tribulation?

    The 7 year tribulation isn't the only 7 year time period of importance in prophecy. Based on the writings of John Nelson Darby in the mid-19th century, the calculation was supposed to extend his interpretation of divine dispensations, or changes in God's attitude and/or plan throughout...

    Tithing - "How to" not "whether"

    It's not a question of manipulation. Withholding or granting a donation is a tool for exerting influence. When a person visits a church he or she may consider whether or not they wish to join. We are told that one of the reasons for becoming a member is to allow us to vote on business issues...

    Tithing

    The issue of tithing was invented to support the infrastructure of franchise religion. Tithing is nowhere mentioned in the New Testament. In the Old Testament, the practice of tithing is strictly defined and regulated and does not involve regular weekly payments to the local religious...

    BLACK HELICOPTERS BUZZING URBAN NEIGHBORHOODS

    Training in an urben environment is not a valid reason for these actions. It's dangerous and its a violation of FAA regulations to fly at tree top level over populated areas. I spoke to a pilot of a police helicopter recently. He said that they fly according to strict rules. Most of these...

    The Day of the Lord is at hand for all the nations

    Divine judgment cannot be said to focus upon one day only. Certainly events transpire which pivot on a single day, if not an hour. To suggest that judgment is limited to a day or an hour is to deny the evidence of history as well as scripture. It certainly denies the portent of seasons and...

    Daniel 9:24-27

    The clock is running. No one can argue that fact. There's simply too much evidence to support it. Reading the clock has become another issue altogether. According to Hebrew law, life was to be lived in blocks of seven years. These blocks have commonly been called weeks of years because of...

    We Are Dead to the Law

    Interesting lead in to the thread. Christians are not dead to the law, they are dead to sin. Christ didn't come to remove the law, He came to fulfill it. Rather than removing the law, it means that Christ makes it possible to live it. No Christian has a license to sin. Judgment...

    Is it over for the PC?

    As long as large businesses hire droids to work in cube farms, there will be a market for desktop PCs. I've made a living out of servicing these industrial sweat shops and can tell you with all honesty that there is absolutely no sign they are going away. The future, if you can call this...

    Contemporary Christian Singer Reveals Her Dark Past in Witchcraft

    So what's the problem? Huge segments of American Christians have NO PROBLEM with accepting the values and ideas presented by atheists(1), witches or those who've corrupted themselves and the gospel message with demonic ideas. The problem is that many Christians simply REFUSE to do their...

    Religious Freedom ~ Clay Christensen

    The basic premise of the video is correct - that Democracy works because people are inspired by God to follow laws declared and undeclared. At the end of the video, Mr. Christensen asks the question 'what happens when a democracy loses its religion?' The answer is plain to see in America...
