    A quick look at the differences between lust and adultery in America and in Muslim countries. No copywrt, feel free to edit or add too however you like. I am not an expert, so please forgive and bring to my attention any mistakes. Thanks.

    The Bible Code

    Stop trying to appease the world’s intellect for they cannot understand God by the mind. True science affirms the Word, but science doesn’t convict the heart. Facts are easily ignored, but the Spirit working on the heart cannot; resisted, but not ignored

    Having just seen a show about the Bible Code the other day, so I thought I would put in my two cents on the issue. I know some very good men think this is a great find, but even great men need to hear from an Amos from time to time. When you first listen to it, it sounds really cool especially to ...read more

    Why is it that we don’t share our faith in Christ more? Maybe Jonah can shed some light on the subject. Learn 5 attitudes that keep us from reaching others from his life.

    This Ain’t No Fish Story! I want to tell you a story this morning about a fish. But it’s anything but a “fish story”.
