    God will hold us responsible he has already told us that for those that know to do good and do it not to them it is a sin. Faith without works is dead. That means to be a Christian we have to do something for God.

    It is a sickly, acrid, repulsive stench that makes you curl your face into an involuntary grimace and hold your nose. In the Valley of Hinnom, outside Jerusalem, refuse is burned continually day and night. Jesus uses it as a picture of Hell.

    Matthew 13:36-43 - HELL, GOD’S WASTE MANAGEMENT CENTRE - Part 11 I watch as hell is washed inland with the momentum of an earthquake behind it, a wave of burning cars, buildings and debri. And in its wake the devastation of thousands lost. Earthquake, tsunami, nuclear explosion. In the Valley of ...read more

    We are not to be ignorant to the truth about holy and unholy lifestyles. God will judge sin as He did in the Old Testament and He will hold us responsible for the way we act as Christians. Christians are to glorify God in everything that they do!

    It is clear to us all that John the Baptist came ahead of Jesus Christ to prepare the way and to make things right. Whatever position you hold in the Church, don’t be too shy, don’t be a rebellious type

    Aim: Jesus has been around for almost thirty years but nobody really heard about him except when he was twelve years old when he was seen in the temple and nothing was heard about him until this time he appeared at the river where John was baptizing.

    Unforgiveness keeps us in chains and blocks us from peace and joy...It paralyzes and holds us captive. When we choose to forgive, we are set free from bitterness and hate. We are set free!

     | 3,342 views

    Rome-Babylon has been with us for many centuries now. From giddy power over empires to its present place of "holding on", Babylon promises to be with us until her program is fulfilled (Revelation 18).

    The "Golden Age" of the Papacy. c. 1000 A.D. As the new millennium dawns over Europe and the world, Rome tightens its grip. It seems every Pope is trying to outdo the last in wickedness and power plays. Benedict VIII buys the office of Pope in 1012, as does his successor in 1024. The latter Pope ...read more
