    Why Do Some People Promote Psalm 83 In Our Days As A War? Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 20, 2023
     | 2,259 views

    Because of the current war in Gaza caused by hateful Islamic terrorists, some people are writing on Psalm 83 saying it is a prophetic Psalm that means a war is coming. I am writing to refute that idea. Some people get agitated in pushing a war but Psalm 83 is not prophecy.

    WHY DO SOME PEOPLE PROMOTE PSALM 83 IN OUR DAYS AS A WAR? One of the most uncertain writings in the bible is Psalm 83. I never used to hear anything about this Psalm a few years ago, but now a few people are making reference to it. Some are going as far as to say this is a prophetic event that ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,359 views

    Jesus calls us to be the salt - the preservative - of the earth. He warns us against losing our sense of mission. Or, considering the Greek, perhaps he is warning us against being pushed off course. But either way, his message is: stick with it.

    What Is Your Name

    Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Oct 2, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,482 views

    Discovering your name sometimes requires experiences of dark nights and aloneness. God must test our behaviour. He pushes us to see things that are not good for us, things that must change. He loves us far to much to leave us to our destructive behaviour

    God's Word is absolute. The Word of God is final. And His Word is binding, and it is truth! There is a reckoning at hand. It's the reckoning of God. And it is a reckoning of the sinful ways of this world and how we have literally pushed God out of our lives and our countries.

    When we look at life from an eternal perspectives it alleviates stress and helps us focus on God’s perspectives rather than our own limited-selfish view-point.
