By: John W. Samuels | - How are Jehovah's Witnesses differerent from other Christian religions? What do Jehovah's Witnesses believe?

- What Does The Bible Say About Purpose In Life
By: Nicolas Baron | - Let's have a look and focus on what the Bible states about Purpose in Life. The Bible has no different view of purpose of life. It is also very clear about what should be the purpose of life of human being as stated in the Bible. It draws the same conclusion as that of other holy books. According to the Bible, life should be lead to attain that purpose of life for that God has sent you on this earth. Each and every person has a specific goal and purpose in life that they need to achieve after bi ...

- Yogic Insights - A Closer Look At Fear
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - The teachings of Yoga show us to look within for answers and solutions to obstacles; but there are matters that people do not want to look at, and there are matters we cannot change. Many people do not want to look directly at the source of their inner fears. A meditation session, devoted to looking at our phobias, might not be fruitful - unless we have professional guidance.
How can we deal with the fear of loss, death, or evil? In Psalms 23:4 of the King James Version of the Hol ...

- The Corruption Of Scripture
By: SHOCK | - Many theologians have found that the corruption of scripture began when they discovered that the Bible was written by over 40 different authors, over a period of approximately 1,500 to 1,600 different years, which averages out to be roughly 45 generations in gap? It is documented that there are 1.189 chapters of the Bible; 929 chapters that comprise the Old Testament and only 260 are contributed to the New Testament. The beginning of the Bible dates s back to 1400 B.C. and is estimated to ended ...

- 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 ...

- Could The Bible Teachings Be Integrated With The Practical Life?
By: Linda Turnbull | - The Bible is one of the oldest books in the history, in fact it is the oldest book kept intact despite all these years. The Bible was inspired by God and it contains all what is needed to survive both your material and spiritual life. We could display this in a comparison made between the development of Christianity and the establishing of a huge company and they had found many similarities. This could give us an idea about how we can integrate The Bible teaching into our practical life.

- Why The Bible Must Not Be Taken Only Literally
By: Andrew Cort | - Early in the story of the Exodus, the Bible says, "Amalek came and fought with Israel at Rephidim." So Moses told Joshua to put together an army and go out into battle against Amalek and his people.
Amalek was a descendant of Esau. The Amalekites had an ingrained irrational hatred toward Israel. They attacked with no provocation. They would sneak up behind the Israelites and use ambushes and cunning to attack the weak, the elderly, and the stragglers. Later, during Moses' teaching ...

- Are Any Of These Men The Coming Antichrist?
By: Reece Woodstock | - Even though the fascination with the identity of the Antichrist has been a major aspect of bible prophecy for hundreds of years, the twentieth and twenty first century has witnessed more focus on the end time Antichrist debate more than any other time primarily because the rise of the internet has created more exposure and access to information related to the development of the new world order than at any other time in history.

- Online Resources For Living For And Through Jesus
By: Chris Robertson | - In today's busy - and primarily technological - society, you probably realize that living for and through Jesus now takes on a whole new meaning. Millions of people around the world spend the majority of their time online, which means there's less time to read (printed materials, that is), attend social gatherings such as church meetings and Bible classes, spend time with family, etc. But thankfully, there are many reliable online Christian resources to help you further your walk with Christ eve ...

- Is The Law Of Attraction For Christians?
By: Jon Mercer | - Because I've been studying the law of attraction for many years, people will often ask me "is the law of attraction for Christians?" Or "is the law of attraction in conflict with Christianity or the Bible?" These are really good questions, and actually, there's a great deal of information in the Bible to answer them. Particularly in the New Testament, there are many, many references to the power of faith and belief. Jesus told us that we could do "greater works" then He if only we had a strong ...

- Jewish Teachings And The Bible
By: Majorreligions | - Jewish teachings and Bible share a common platform and share a special relation. One of the most important concerns of classic Jewish thought is the importance of biblical texts, and their elucidation. Another major concern of classical Judaism is the execution and application of the Jewish law, known as "halakhah", derived from biblical and rabbinic sources.
In ancient time:
The practice of reading, interpreting, and explaining biblical texts is an old Jewish pre-o ...

- Moody Press: True To Its Founders?
By: Daniel LaLond Jr. | - "The Name You Can Trust" is the marketing slogan of Moody Press or Moody Publishers. In this way Moody Press suggests to believers that they are a Christian publishing house that is true to scripture and to the gospel of Christ. Multiplied thousands around the globe, however, who trust their eternal souls to the teaching published by "The Name You Can Trust" might be stunned to find out that Moody Press should not be trusted.

- To Labor Is To Rest: How Divine Order Works
By: Drs Bil and Cher Holton | - In Matthew 20:1-16, we find an interesting parable that many find confusing and problematic. This selection is the story of the landowner who paid his field workers the same salary when they worked in his vineyard, regardless of how much time they put in. But from a metaphysical understanding, the story is rich with practical applications for spiritual growth.
There are a few curiosities I want to point out before I move from the literal to the metaphysical. The literal perspectiv ...

Christ teaches us about the principle of stewardship through His parable of the talents as written in Mathew 25:14-27. The importance of Stewardship is emphasized by the fact that except for the Kingdom of God, Christ talked more about stewardship than any other topic.

- The Book Of John And Your Prosperity
By: Dan Brown | - Most scholars will agree the Gospel of John is a very important document on Christian theology - often times, more so than the synoptics, which are the works of Matthew, Mark, and Luke!
Why? Probably because the way John the Disciple portrays Jesus Christ! John discusses two critical particulars in His Gospel:
1. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God!
2. The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us!

Throughout the last 3400 years, the story of how the Bible has been brought from culture after culture has been a very interesting one. It's one that has been shaped by powerful Kings and Queens, Popes and bishops, war and peace and especially the onslaught of many new technologies, including the printing pres ...

By: Susan Slobac | - Childrens Bible stories can be an indispensable tool for teaching young children important lessons they should apply to their daily lives.

This enables them to more easily internalize the teachings of Christ and continue to grow in their faith as they grow themselves.

- Jihad Or The Sixth Pillar
By: Andrew Schwartz | - Such phenomenon in the Islamic religion as Jihad is often called as the sixth Pillar. Jihad can be interpreted as a struggle, which is being undertaken on the way to God. Most people in the world believe that Jihad combines all the military actions aimed at people not belonging to Islam. That's why Jihad can be defined as total violence, but on the other hand Muslims believe that Jihad is connected purely with living a moral life and trying to spread the teachings and ideas of Islam.

- Can We Grow To Be Like God?
By: akw | - As Christians we often hear people telling us of the need to be more like God, perhaps through being more like Jesus, through whom we get our best impression of what God is like. But is it realistic to expect to grow to be like God? Does God actually expect us to become more like him?

- 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.

Impeccable English and brilliant elucidation does little to keep the mind from wandering repeatedly to Matthew 6:23b If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
Hitchens either doesn't know or perhaps doesn't care that almost all Christians who see themselves as saved by the grace of God through the fin ...

- Restoration Of The Church
By: Jerry Richard Boone | - Back-to-the-Bible Movement
During the later part of the eighteenth and early nineteenth century, a number of church congregations decided that creeds, regardless of whoever wrote them and whatever form they take, are divisive and not in accord with the teachings of the New Testament. They sought to end their denominational ties and become mere Christians with no separating labels.
Why should we base the church exclusively on the New Testament? Jesus chose fro ...

- The King James Version, Inspired Or Not
By: Gary Kurz | - The controversy as to whether the King James Version of the Bible is the inspired Word of God or not has raged over many generations of Christians. Some believers unwaveringly claim it is the inspired word and others hold just as strongly that it is not. Occasionally, the opposing views can be so vehemently embraced that is causes schisms in the body and ministry suffers.
That something like this could bring Christians to loggerhead in light of incontrovertible evidence is diffi ...

- Understanding The Bible Help For Your Bible Study
By: Karin Syren | - Copyright 2006 So-lu'shunz Leadership Services
The Bible is not always easy to understand. And we are held accountable for how we absorb it into our lives. Proverbs 4:23 makes it clear that each of us is responsible for his own heart. Consequently, many of us begin our study by reading commentaries and articles by those who we figure should know what they are talking about. These supplementary studies can be very valuable, if we adhere to a few simple rules at the outset.

By: C.F. Bettridge | - Many people desire to know more about the Bible. When they try to read it they find it difficult to understand, and at times, a little dry in some portions, as they put it. But the Bible is really not difficult to understand, it just takes some time, and a couple of other factors. But more important, is that the joy that the truths of God's precious Word can give to a person who understands it - are almost beyond belief!
