  • Culture Clash - Psychic Network Series

    Contributed by Peter Loughman on Jan 3, 2010
    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,991 views

    When everything is theoretical,everyone loves to coexist, everyone celebrates diversity. Interfere with their lifestyle and you become part of the problem, not part of the solution.

    To say that there is one God hinders social harmony. To claim that there is only one way to salvation is an affront to our diversity. To allege that a belief is wrong is the ultimate bigotry. Christians are the problem - Christians not part of the solution. Paul and his companions run into ...read more

However FAITH is another matter. Religion is made by man but FAITH is what God is calling us to. People ...read more

     | 1,809 views

    Repentance is a firm theme throughout both testaments because it is crucial and essential.

    The Advantage of Repentance (Isaiah 1:1-20) Isaiah is often considered the most important of the prophets, and his book is sometimes called the “Fifth Gospel” because it so frequently predicts the Person and Work of Jesus Christ.

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Apr 28, 2002
    based on 75 ratings
     | 31,021 views

    The parable of the good samaritan gives us more than a contrast between love and indifference. It gives us a contrast between two kinds of religion.

They’re not historical; they’re not accounts of actual events; they are fictional narratives involving made-up characters. The situations they describe never really ...read more

  • Two Way Communication

    based on 35 ratings
     | 4,975 views

    One of the greatest tragedies of the Christian life is that we fail to ever enter into a relationship with God that is born of the Holy Spirit. We are left with a religion, not a relationship.

    Two Way Communications Isaiah 50:4b; John 10:27 Recently I have been over hearing in certain classes on whether or not we can influence God? I think that if that question is asked or thought of here maybe our people feel that way as well. If we as future shepherds, feel that way how can we ...read more
