Collective Madness – by Jack Kinsella

by

Collective Madness – by Jack Kinsella Jewish leaders are meeting with members of the European Union in Brussels for a conference on anti-Semitism. European leaders were embarrassed last year when a poll proved what Brussels has long denied. European anti-Semitism is approaching the levels of the 1930’s — just before Europe began shoveling its Jewish population into ovens during World War II. “The most important achievement that can emerge from this conference is recognition of an emerging truth: No longer is violent anti-Semitism the exclusive domain of extreme right-wing forces; today’s anti-Semitic agitators are largely those who would import the …

Hold Fast Until Our Lord’s Return

by

Hold Fast Until Our Lord’s Return By Tucker Whitaker & Andy Coticchio Excerpted from Life on the Highest Plane – Ruth Paxson (1928): Revelation 2:25,“But that which ye have already hold fast till I come.” “Hold Fast.” In these days of growing apostasy the Christian is meeting with very severe test to his faith, love, zeal and fidelity. The man who rejects the foundation truths of God’s Word considers the man who holds them fast an intellectual outcast and consigns him to the slums of scholarship. This is a day in which men are suffering persecution for their faith. As …

It must be remembered that every activity of Satan and his demons is done only by God’s permissive will, and at times, God will use demons to carry out His own purposes in the world.

by

It must be remembered that every activity of Satan and his demons is done only by God’s permissive will, and at times, God will use demons to carry out His own purposes in the world. This is seen on several occasions. One example is found in I Samuel 16:14: “Now the Spirit of Jehovah departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from Jehovah troubled him.” In this verse, God commands an evil spirit to come to King Saul in order to torment him as a punishment for his active and deliberate disobedience against God. A second example is found in …

How can I accept Jesus as my personal savior?

by

How can I accept Jesus as my personal savior? Accepting Jesus as your personal Savior involves an understanding of who Jesus is, what a Savior is, and what it means to accept Jesus as Savior. Jesus Christ is often noted as a good person, yet the Bible declares He is much more. He is God in human form who came to live on earth (John 1:1). He lived, taught, performed miracles, suffered, died, and resurrected from the dead to prove He is Lord. In 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 the apostle Paul shared, “I delivered to you as of first importance what I …

Faith Without Works is Dead — Not Lost 

by

Faith Without Works is Dead — Not Lost Jack Kinsella “Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.” (James 2:17-18) The second chapter of James, often called the “works” chapter, seems to contradict other places in Scripture that salvation is by faith and stands independent of works. Paul writes to the Galatians; “I do not frustrate the grace of God, for if righteousness comes by the law, …

Rage Against the Machine

by

by Pete Garcia– If you think the political left is unhinged now, just wait until a minute after the Rapture of the Church happens; all hell will really break loose. Current Events It is getting harder and harder to watch the news these days without feeling some overwhelming sense of hopelessness. It’s like watching a train wreck happen in slow motion. It is the decline of western civilization who’s solely bent on suiciding itself. If that were not enough, we watch in horror as the next generation race headlong into embracing the very ideologies that made the 20th-century the bloodiest …

“It is Finished and Now It Begins”

by

“It is Finished and Now It Begins” Our author Matthew lays before us two reports, forcing his audience to declare their choice. We will hear and believe with the evidence or we will deny and lose all. And it all began with God dispelling darkness and welcoming the Light of the World accompanied by an earthquake to signify it is finished and it is the earth leaping for joy at the moving of a tombstone as if a pebble; Jesus has triumphed over sin and death. The risen Lord did not need the tombstone moved to allow him to leave as …

Master Painter by Janet Martin

by

Into His heavenly palette He dips an unseen brush And as the earth lays sleeping in the misty morning hush He gently stirs in dulcet tones the purple of the sky A hint of lavender and bronze to tease the wakening eye And as the deeper tones recede with loving passion stirred He strokes the soft horizon-line in colors of His word And hope takes on the burnished hue of orange and ruddy glow Reflected in the morning dew like ruby-tinted snow The drooping heart and heavy eyes are lifted from despair As the Painter of the skies smiles upon …

Giants And Grasshoppers

by

Giants And Grasshoppers I cannot even begin to imagine what those forty days must have been like for Caleb. To have seen with his own eyes everything the Lord had promised. To have tasted the milk and honey the Lord had told them flowed from the land. To have seen grape bunches so large it took two men to carry them. Every word the Lord had promised, his eyes had just seen. But as he returned to their camp in Kadesh with the other eleven scouts, his ears must have deceived him. The words he heard spoken did not match …

Living Happily Ever After In Fantasy Land

by

Dr. Mike Murphy Recently, I had a very popular social site we all know well, block a few of the pictures in my past posts.  Pictures that showed Christ on the Cross, and one picture that showed the nail in His hand. Pictures of the Crucifixion we have all seen numerous times, and pictures that have been posted on this same site countless times before.  I began to wonder, why would they pull these pictures now? Why would they suddenly begin to worry about people seeing these pictures, or think that images of Christ on the Cross might now be …

Redeemed

Love this, especially right now, when I’m in a place in life where the only one who truly can help is HIM……I recognize my desperate need for HIM to do the impossible in our situation and my need to lay everything at His feet and simply trust His will and plan for my life.

Where Am I Looking?

by

Where Am I Looking? One of the reasons believers struggle with assurance of salvation is that they are looking in the wrong place. A common error is that we take our eyes off our Saviour and we begin looking at our own faith or we look at our own life. As we gaze upon SELF we get discouraged very quickly. The believer looking within: As I look at my own faith, I get discouraged. My faith seems to be shaky. The more I look at my faith the more I begin to wonder and question: “Do I really believe as …
