     | 10,906 views

    We need to redirect our culture away from ourselves to the needs of others and the glory of God. Culture must not be used merely for self-interest.

    The readings we heard from Deuteronomy 15:1-11 and Acts 4:32-37 this evening talk about how the Christian community is supposed to act.

  • Lessons In Apologetics #6: Pantheism

    Contributed by Frederick Meekins on Mar 3, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,134 views

    As a worldview, Pantheism has plagued the religious thought of both the East and West from ancient times on up through our contemporary day.

    If Deism is the belief that God is so transcendent from the cosmos He created that He no longer participates directly in it, Pantheism must be the worldview at the other end of the continuum believing that a higher power exists as Pantheism holds that God is so immanent with the universe that God ...read more
