     | 10,021 views

    This message you may be interested to know isn’t really about weather you should wear your seatbelts, it is how ever about a Christians responsibility to observe the laws of the land.

    Introduction: Mandatory seatbelt laws, the talk of Greeley in recent days! I am not sure what your position is on the subject. Opinions have varied in recent newspaper letters to the editor. One resident’s philosophy is that it shouldn’t be forced on people, after all she wrote when it’s ...read more

    The Mass Deception Of "Left Behind"

    Contributed by Richard David on Jan 3, 2001
    based on 268 ratings
     | 7,294 views

    An exposition of the dangers of this new theology of a pre-trib rapture. A response to the growing popularity of the "Left Behind" series, even among secular audiences and the danger of deception that its widespread acceptance holds.

    As a young Christian, I was raised on “dispensationalism”, a term which comes from the Bible referring to God’s timing and how He works in different ways at different times. We had it all figured out, just like the Jews of Jesus’ day. (But wait, they missed it! Are we?) According to what is known ...read more

    Jesus could come "Perhaps Today." Three emotional responses to the doctrine of the rapture of the Church... It should scare you, it may shame you, and it also should brings you great solace!

    >Title: >"Perhaps Today!" > >The rapture of the Church may take place todays! Perhaps today! What is the rapture? > Jesus had made this promise to his disciples. "I will come again and receive you into my house." These verses, in the book of First Thessalonians, tell us the same thing. ...read more

    Cultivating Good Soil

    In the parable of the sower: 1. The seed falls onto every type of soil without discrimination. 2. The different soils represent people’s different responses. 3. In the end there is a great harvest.

    Picture the scene in your mind. Jesus is teaching from a boat on the shore of the Lake of Galilee. There is a breeze blowing as he nods in the direction of a farmer in the distance. He is sowing seed in his field. As they watched the farmer at work, Jesus used the scene to teach a lesson about ...read more

    Part I - Mary – The Voice Of Servanthood Series

    Contributed by Eric Peloquin on Dec 15, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,230 views

    This is partone in a series looking at some of the characters in the Christmas narrative and what they can teach us. Mary’s humble response to the Angel of the Lord is a powerful example of a young woman with the heart of a servant.

    The Voices of Christmas Part I Mary – the Voice of Servanthood Mary may be the most controversial figure in the scriptures because of the doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church regarding Mary. They teach that she is the co-redemptrix with Christ. They also teach that she was without sin and ...read more

    based on 28 ratings
     | 15,396 views

    "Witnesses" — it is that word which defines for Christ’s disciples their role and responsibility. We must not lose sight of the fact that the Holy Spirit came to equip the disciples to carry out their work of witness.

    ACTS 1:8 “Ye shall be witnesses” The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery in Washington, DC, has a guard 24 hours a day. Every hour on the hour, 365 days a year, a new soldier reports for duty. When the new guard arrives, he receives his orders from the one who is leaving. ...read more

    Persistence In The Presence: How Women Pray

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 22, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,755 views

    Women succeed in pray because they persist in trusting God, allow the whole self to pray, take God at His word, are not afraid of intensity, choose responsibility over religion, and keep their commitments.

    If, as Thomas Edison tells us, genius is one per cent inspiration and ninety-nine per cent perspiration, then I suspect it is also true that prayer is one per cent insistence and ninety-nine per cent persistence. Prayer is one per cent insistence, to be sure; we do, in our prayers, tell God what ...read more

    Angels we have heard on high, singing sweetly o’er the plains. And the mountains in reply, echoing their joyous strain: Gloria, Gloria, in excelsis Deo! Glory to God in the highest! The word glory appears over 350 times in the Bible! It’s a significant word in Scriptures. What does it ...read more
