Mixing Politics And Religion

Contributed by Harold Orndorff on Jul 11, 2004

Election sermons were common, even expected, in early America. This is a 21st century election sermon. Here we explore, not party politics, but principles of politics from the word of God.

Mixing Politics and Religion Politics is the process by which we establish government. The word "politics" is derived from two words. The first, "poly", is a Latin word meaning many. The second, "tics", describes blood-sucking creatures. I’m kidding, of course, but - In my many years of ...read more

The Mark Of The Beast

Contributed by James May on Mar 19, 2006

Do Christians need to fear the Mark of the Beast? When will it be given? Is there a far more important question that we should be asking ourselves? Is there another prophecy that we should be more concerned about?

The folly of false religions. Only fullness and freedom are found in Christ.

The setting is the front of a small church. The pastor says from the pulpit, ‘I’ve misplaced my sermon notes, so I’m just going to read from this devotional—if I can find it here.
