    Wrestling with the tough topic of suicide and eternal destiny

    There was a story in the media today (17th December 2018) of a Catholic Priest in Detroit upsetting the relatives of a teen boy at his funeral, when, during the funeral sermon, the Priest said that he didn’t think the boy would be in heaven due to the fact that he committed suicide.

    8 Reasons Why People Leave The Church

    Contributed by Sheryln Miller on Apr 11, 2019
     | 5,605 views

    Are you surprised when you hear that a once faithful Christ follower has turned away from the faith and now doubts whether scripture is true or not? If you are like me, you wonder how this happens but then you remember this is nothing new. Apostasy appears throughout the bible.

    In Hebrews 6:4-5 the writer notes some will turn away from the gospel although they once tasted the good Word and received the Holy Spirit. Jesus knew we would be tempted to turn away from the truth but He reminds us to remain faithful to the end (end of our lives) if we want to receive the ...read more

    During Persecution, God’s Word Will Come

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 1, 2022
     | 1,324 views

    Jeremiah was to have God by his side through all of his difficulties. There are special rewards for God’s faithful people. However, it is possible that they might not be received during this life.

    Jeremiah had been God’s spokesman to Judah for forty years, during the last five kings. He continually urged the people to repent and to act, but nobody would listen to him or do anything. He was not a successful man by the world’s standards, like those who have fortune and fame. He did not gain ...read more

    What is apostacy? Apostacy is the nullification of a religious belief or faith, abandonment of a previous loyalty, to abdicate, to renounce, to defect, or to give up.

     | 1,934 views

    Sinners and the government are not the real problem. We are our own worse enemies refusing to clean ourselves up so sinners will want to be clean.

    Romans 13:1  Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.  2  Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves ...read more

     | 1,996 views

    God fills you with love, and as you mature in Christ, that drives out the fear of eternal damnation, the only real fear worth mentioning.

    5th Sunday of Easter We’ve grown so accustomed to seeing St. Paul as one of the good guys of history, especially of Catholic or Christian history that we might be shocked by today’s reading from the Acts. Paul comes to Jerusalem after a three-year retreat in the Arabian desert. He comes full of ...read more

    How to overcome evil with good.

    CHRISTIAN REACTIONS. Romans 12:14-21. Romans 12:14. The positive imperative is to “bless” those who persecute us. This is similar to the teaching of Jesus (Matthew 5:44; Luke 6:27-28). The supreme example is that of Jesus Himself (1 Peter 2:21-23). This partly involved Jesus praying for His ...read more

    Gentle Jesus Meek And Mild. You Have To Be Kidding!

    Contributed by Revd. Martin Dale on Aug 13, 2022
     | 1,954 views

    Many people think of Jesus being in the words of Charles' Wesley's carol. But he wasn't. He came to do the Father's will even if it ruffled feathers. And he may even set Father against Son, as I experienced myself

    You will probably recall that famous Anglican hymn writer Charles Wesley’s famous hymn that start with the words “Gentle Jesus meek and mild” You have to be kidding - as we see in the Gospel today!! Jesus is anything but gentle, meek and mild as our Gospel reading today shows Story: At the ...read more

    Children are gifts from the Lord. We have always challenges before them. We need to set examples as well as teach life values, above all Christ in their lives. Do child evangelism through every way you can.

    Lesson 13 Mark 10:13-16 Jesus and Children in Mark CHILDREN IN OT PERSPECTIVE: The Old Testament talks about the importance of raising children to love and worship God (Deuteronomy 6:7, Proverbs 22:6).

    Jesus And The Cross In Mark Series

    Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on May 15, 2023
     | 1,253 views

    Jesus endured the cross, despising the shame (Hebrews 12:2) He surrendered his mortal body according to John 10:18, Just as he said: “No one takes [my life] away from me, but I lay it down of my own free will...” The cross is not a religious symbol but an instrument of death.

    Mark 15:34-37 Jesus and the Cross in Mark Introduction: According to Mark, the "theology of the cross" (theologia crucis) is the only way to achieve glory by way of rejection and the cross as explained in the divine parabola in Philippians 2:5 by Apostle Paul. Mark is silent about the ...read more
