    Here is why, as an Adventist, I believe America is in Trouble.

    Super Bowl

    Caesar Worship involved approving of, even participating in the values of Caesar and the 'Kingdom of Men' It was because the early Christians refused to participate in this practice. It was because their vision and values were rooted in the 'Kingdom of God' that they were fed to the lions in...

    Please Pray': Female Shooter Killed During Attack at Joel Osteen's Lakewood Church

    This will probably shock, even outrage most who call themselves Christians... Jesus lived in an era where Rome oppressed the locals in Palestine. Rome subdued them at every turn. It was the hope of the nation Israel that this oppression would be cut short by the Messiah by a military...

    What does it mean to Glorify God?

    He has given us autonomy....we can choose our destiny. God didn't force/ override the ability he gave Adam to choose whether to believe the Serpents lie in the Garden. He warned him of the consequences but left the choice to him.

    Assumptions are certainly often shown to be wrong. Jesus' resurrection

    Will God punish idolaters?
