- The Death Of John The Baptist A Sermon On Mark 6:14-29
By: David B. Smith | - When his daughter Herodias came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests; and the king said to the girl, "Ask me for whatever you wish, and I will give it." And he solemnly swore to her, "Whatever you ask me, I will give you, even half of my kingdom." She went out and said to her mother, "What should I ask for?" She replied, "The head of John the baptizer." (Mark 6:23-24)
We had a baptism this morning, and I think if you'd searched through the Bible for the most inappropriate Gosp ...

- Daily Devotion: The Meaning Of True Obedience
By: Edwin Joseph | - Nowadays, it was greatly distressing to know that people have failed to obey what God has instructed them. First reason is because of lack of knowledge and ignorance since God's command is not being taught aside from church services. Second thing is because people lack interest in reading God's word. People don't give much attention to the verse "Don't let the Book of the Law Depart from your mouth, meditate on it day and night".
In effect, people have probably disobeyed all ...

- Why Christ Is The Only Way To Heaven
By: William Nugent | - Christians are often criticized for saying that Jesus is the only way to heaven. This criticism is unjust because every religion and philosophy makes exclusive truth claims.
All religions contradict each other on major issues yet all religions make either implicit or explicit claims of being the only true religion. Even Hinduism claims that everyone eventually gets reincarnated as good Hindus in order to enter heaven.
To explain, let me point out that the laws of l ...

- Bible Heresy And The Individual's Paradigm
By: John M Bland | - There's no bigger problem in ones study of the biblical writings than ones hermeneutics. Simply defined, hermeneutics is the science of scripture interpretation.
What affects our hermeneutics, however, is our paradigm. In fact, if we all had the same paradigm, same IQ, and spent the same amount of time in our study of the writings, we would all draw the same conclusions. But, alas, God never made clones, people do that.
It was the Jewish paradigm that kept the majority of ...

- Can You See The Face Of God?
By: William Bell | - God is a Spirit. No one has seen God at any time. How then does the Bible speak of seeing God's face? The face of God is his spiritual presence and approval. It is the privilege and blessing of forgiven man.
Sin Turns Away God's Face
Sin, turns away the face of God from us. "But your iniquities have separated you from your God; and your sins have hidden His face from you." (Isa. 59:2). These words, spoken to Israel, demonstrate that not only does sin hide from us th ...

- Ad 70, The Lord's Supper And Preterism, A Cake Unturned?
By: William Bell | - Several Amillennialists and other futurists believe that if Jesus' second coming occurred in AD 70, then why do Preterists take the Lord's Supper. Some even argue that the practice of taking the communion disproves the teaching that all Bible prophecy is fulfilled, including the Second Coming of Christ.
Most arguments center on 1 Corinthians 11:26. "For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death till He comes." Some have asked "How can those w ...

- Bible Shows Millions Of Americans Will Become Killed Or Enslaved During Great Tribulation
By: George Pogiatzis | - The word "Israel" which appears very frequently in the Bible applies to God's treasured people of all ages, not just the people called "the Jews". In fact, "Jew" means someone of the tribe of Judah, which is only ONE of the 12 tribes of Israel! Ten of these tribes were scattered throughout the whole Earth following the Assyrian Exile in the 8th century B.C. mentioned in 2 Kings 16 & warned of by many of the Old Testament prophets! The horrifying exile experience of the 12 tribes by Assyria & Bab ...

- Recommendations On How To Prepare For The Rapture
By: William Bell | - Teaching about a future rapture consumes many books, sermons and bits of space on the internet. We've all seen the signs and mock videos of literally millions of people being transported off in the clouds, leaving buses, planes and trains empty and colliding with havoc all over the place.
Fiction books with the underlying premise that the rapture is near have sold millions with the phenomenon of interest in the rapture. So what should a person do to prepare?

By: George Pogiatzis | - "All things by Him [Jesus] & for Him were made." (Colossians 1:16)
There are many things in nature which God created that share many UNCOMMON similarities with the three persons of God and were made to testify that the Bible is true and for us to praise Him, as all things in nature should lead us to do. (Psalm 148) These things include the Sun, light, wind, water, & trees, which are all said in the Bible to be symbols of God.

- Think About The Possibilities Of Future Bible Prophecy: The Rapture, Left Behind,
By: MSD | - The final book of the Bible Revelation. It contains frightening prophecies
concerning the last days of earth as we know it. Novels have been written and
movies made, all depicting those events. Some people scoff, others ignore, and
still others are afraid. Could the Bible be true? Will there be an end to this
earth? And if so, how can we prepare?
Many people disbelieve, dismissing the book of Revelation as a fairy ta ...

- How To Use A Warlock Pvp Guide To Dominate Wow Player Versus Player Combat
By: Bill Mann | - Playing a Warlock class character in World of Warcraft PvP makes you a powerhouse, especially in Arena play. Warlocks are downright nasty to fight against. With their ability to literally curse other classes to death, Warlocks are often feared, even hated, in Player versus Player combat. But they're not indestructible, and are vulnerable to any class of opponent, provided that opponent knows how to counteract the Warlock's abilities.
A Warlock in PvP is actually a simple class to ...

By: Bill Mann | - There's a special feel to playing a Mage class character in World of Warcraft's PvP (Player versus Player) combat. The ability to use magic is one of the hallmarks of fantasy (as well as fantasy role playing games like WoW). Who of us hasn't imagined what it would be like to have the powers of Gandalf or Merlin?
In WoW, Mage characters live and die by the way they use mana and their understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of opposing player classes. Not knowing the best way ...

- Bible Contradictions - True Or False?
By: Denny Smith | - If we believe the Bible is the word of God why do we often interpret it in a way that makes it contradict itself? Truth is harmonious or else it's not truth and cannot be. Jesus says of God's word, "your word is truth." (John 17:17) It does not oppose itself when properly interpreted.
Martin Luther was persuaded he had found contradiction in the Bible between what Paul wrote in Romans about salvation being by faith versus James saying it was by works. In an online article enti ...

By: William Nugent | - Socrates (ca. 470-399 BC) is not just another "dead white male" despised by our university elite but a man whose philosophical breakthroughs reverberate down through the centuries and profoundly affect us today.
Athens in the fifth century BC was the age of Pericles. The grandiose construction projects undertaken by Pericles such as the Parthenon were being built during Socrates' lifetime.
Philosophically, Athens was in a time of confusion, flux and disarra ...

- Death And Life And The Bible
By: Robin Calamaio | - Death first. Is death just a part of life? Is it simply an impersonal, random event with no hostile intent? All longevity models (evolution) think so. On the other hand, if death is imposed - that changes everything. What a massive understatement. Evolution and Biblical Creationism, are the two primary competitors in Western thought on origins. They are at great odds on this subject. Indeed, the two systems could not be more diametrically opposed. Here is a comparative review of these t ...

- He Took The Blame
By: Corey Richardson | - The other day while visiting with neighbors, I overheard a friend tell about an upsetting incident that had happened earlier that day. While shopping at a local grocer, she had been falsely accused of shoplifting. Her story gave us a chuckle since we all know her as the quintessential, cookie-baking, next-door neighbor lady. No one could imagine her committing such a crime.
Once the chuckles ended, however, we were outraged for her. Within a few minutes the whole neighborhood ...

- Is There More Than One Gospel In The Bible?
By: Corey Richardson | - Many Bible students assume that the word "gospel" refers to the same message each time it is used throughout the Bible. If that is so, why would the Bible use so many different titles for the same message? For instance:
Gospel of the Kingdom (Matt 4:23 KJV)
Gospel of the Grace of God (Eph 2:8-9 KJV)
Everlasting Gospel (Rev. 14:6 KJV)
The word "gospel" simply means "good news." While all of God's good news centers in the person of the ...

By: Terence Oles | - Just what do you mean ... BORN AGAIN.

- The Bema Seat Of Christ
By: Terence Oles | - What is the bema Seat and When Is It? The concept of the Bema Seat comes from the ancient Olympics, where a judge would sit on the Bema Seat at the finish line. The judge's purpose was to determine what position the runners came in-first, second, and so on-and then to give out the appropriate rewards. That is the imagery behind what is known as the Bema Seat

- This Poor Peasant Changed The Direction Of His Entire Country By Teaching His Children The Bible
By: Steve Kroening | - You've probably never heard of Vicente Menchu. He was a poor farmer from the mountain region of Guatemala. He lived in the tiny village of El Quiche (pronounced kee-chay). And didn't think he would ever touch the world.
In the late 1970s, when the Guatemalan government began seizing land owned by his fellow villagers, Vicente talked all the people of his village into banding together. His fight against unfair treatment of peasants spread rapidly to other villages.

- Battle Prayer To Break A Generational Curse Line
By: Michael Bradley | - In the realm of spiritual warfare against demonic spirits - one of the ways that demons can enter into a person's life is through a generational curse line. A curse line can be formed out between a parent and a child if that parent has engaged and crossed over into any type of heavier transgression against the Lord.
The Bible tells us that the sins of the father can be "visited" down the blood line of 3 or 4 generations of future children. The Bible tells us that the wages of sin ...

Close to 10 million Americans every year are victimized by it and the costs are estimated at 50 billion dollars annually. Many criminals get off easy while the victims spend years working to restore their damaged credit reports and reputations. Worse yet, there seems to be no end in sight.

By: Linda Dipman | - Newsmen hovered and ran to cover the newest breaking story. They were eager to proclaim the death of a powerful man of the Religious Right who had passed away from a massive heart attack. It was the media's duty to cover the story whether they liked this man or not. They interviewed as many high ranking officials they could find to eulogize the memory and power of a popular religious man of the world.

I'm so glad you asked. Here's what's wrong: The magnificently sold idea of tolerance is, in fact, destroying our highest and best values in life. Twenty-five years ago, had you described our society as it now exists, nobody would have believed that we would ever fall so far.

- Meaning-of-names Code From Adam To Jesus
By: Dean Coombs | - The meaning of a name was considered very important in bible days. Sometimes the bible itself informs the reader what a name means. Such renowned persons as Adam, Cain, Seth, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and his 12 sons, along with Jesus, all have the meaning of their name explicitly given in the bible. Their names tell the story of why or how they were born.
Some students of the bible have wondered whether these names (with their meanings) might not be strung together in successio ...

By: Kate Gardens | - Either the gate to life with God or to eternal separation from Him. The Christians believe that through the sacrifice that Jesus Christ termed the Son of God, we can be saved. If we accept Jesus Christ as our savior and try to live without sin, then when we pass on we are to live in Heaven with God for all of Eternity as a reward for having been a good child of God. Since we are still always guilty of sin, then we must strive to ask God's Forgiveness and continue to try to achieve a sinless st ...

By: Britt Gillette | - Jesus of Nazareth was born in Bethlehem during the reign of Augustus, the 1st Roman Emperor. He is the only individual in human history to fulfill all the known prophecies of the first coming of the Jewish Messiah as outlined in the Old Testament. Jesus is the only human to live a sinless life, and the Bible reveals him to be God in the flesh. Jesus clearly illustrated this point while speaking with his disciples:
Philip said, Lord, show us the Father and we will be satisfied.' ...

- How Joseph Of Arimathea And Nicodemus Risked All To Give Jesus An Honorable Burial
By: Patricia Wagner | - As a crucified criminal in the eyes of the Law, what kind of burial do you suppose Jesus of Nazareth would normally have received?
His body would probably have been thrown into a common grave set apart for criminals. It would be risky to ask for the body of a crucified criminal so that the deceased could be given a proper burial. For anyone to obtain such a corpse, permission would have to be granted by the proper authorities, but it could be dangerous to ask for that permissio ...

- Jesus Died When He Wished To Die
By: Martha Fitzgerald | - Physicians and forensics specialists can debate how Christ died - and we have, for at least 50 years. But one thing is certain: He did die on the cross. New conspiracy theories, born of the same sensationalism as the DaVinci Code, say Jesus survived the crucifixion.
One hypothesis is that He swooned and only appeared to die. Another is that He struck a deal with Pontius Pilate, was sedated and later revived. This may make thrilling reading, but I prefer to go to the source to ...
