     | 1,860 views

    The greatest altar call in the Book of Acts ended with a plea for people to take immediate action to save themselves. 3,000 responded. It's time for modern preachers to go back to bringing people to a decision & telling them the alternative.

    When Christians Try To Predict The Future Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Nov 7, 2024
     | 905 views

    The ancient phrase "examine the liver" tells of a Babylonian way to try to predict the future. We can shake our head at that, but there's a way we do the same thing today.

    “EXAMINE THE LIVER”: This was an ancient Babylonian process to try to discern the future. - Ezekiel 21:21. - I’m quite confident that I’ve never heard a sermon on this obscure phrase in this obscure corner of the Bible, but I think it’s interesting and sets up an important point about prophecy ...read more
