  • Do You Deliberately Sabotage Your Finances?
    By: Jay Peroni | - The Kamikaze were the original suicide bombers. During World War II, Kamikaze pilots would attempt to intentionally crash their aircrafts into Allied ships. These aircrafts became human missiles laden with explosives. Sole mission: take out as many ships and people as possible.

  • What Do You Believe About Source?
    By: Molly Luffy | - When I was a little girl I loved going to Methodist church with my family. The people there were so nice. I felt safe and loved. I even liked going to the Youth group meetings on Sunday nights. It never seemed to me that there was too much pressure about God or the Bible. Thankfully, this particular church did not preach with a heavy emphasis on eternal damnation or unworthiness. I'm not sure how long I would have stuck around had that been the case.

    But my lovely little churc ...

  • The Kind Of Faith In God That Destroys
    By: Denny Smith | - There is a faith, a so called Christian faith, that destroys. Those who hold such a faith, while sincere, do not understand faith from a scriptural point of view. Faith is all too often defined as "what I believe." There is more to saving faith than just believing in Jesus, believing he is the Son of God.

    If faith alone, defined as what one believes, could save by itself then even the demons could be saved for James says, "even the demons believe--and tremble!" (James 2:19 NKJV) ...

  • Being Both Abundant And Spiritual Is The Tallest Order
    By: Stephen Lau | - For centuries, money has been a symbol of exchange of goods and services. But money is also a measure of the meaning and value of different things; for example, if money represents greed and selfishness, it becomes a symbol of evil.

    Money is a means to an end, and not an end itself. Having more money is neither a sin nor a guilt. Jesus said, "I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly." (John 10:10) So, having abundance may indeed be a blessing. But Jesus also warned tha ...

  • Living In Faith - The Tallest Order
    By: Stephen Lau | - Living in faith is living a life of spirituality. What does it entail? It demands a major decision in life to be interested in spiritual things, that is, things of the Spirit, instead of things of the flesh, just as Paul said, "For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit." (Romans 8:5). According to Paul, if you are interested in things of the flesh, you become self-centered, and your mot ...

  • Understanding The Amazing Power Of Words
    By: Brenda Shoshanna | - We have been given a magical power - the words we speak. Most use this power carelessly or unconsciously. They are not aware of the enormous consequences of what they say. Most people don't realize the power of the words they speak and the words they listen to. Much speech arises compulsively and unknowingly causes harm. So many live with remorse not being able to take back harsh words they have said.

    Words can become a source of blessings or curses, health and inspiration, depres ...

  • Enthusiasm, The Law Of Attraction And Abundace
    By: Jody Allen Gorran | - Enthusiasm.

    Enthusiasm is truly a God-given quality. In fact, it means literally, "the state, filled with God." The Greeks called one "enthused" who was possessed by the gods. In this situation, the whole being was intensified. All powers were stimulated to the highest degree. The soul was vitalized until it reflected the Divine. The ideal of enthusiasm was known to Israel, for all the great men of the Bible were God-intoxicated. Filled with the sense of the Divine Presence, they ...

However, if you are able to convince yourself subconsciously that you can achieve what you set out to do then your efforts will be boosted and the results will ...

  • Darwinism Is The Religion Of The Antichrist-1
    By: Harun Yahya | - The hadiths of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), mention that, during the end times, a devilish power will emerge, one of whose most important attributes will be that he disrupts the peace and order of mankind. Many people, though, attach little importance to that power, known as the antichrist (Dajjal). From the hadiths, one would ordinarily think of the antichrist as an individual.

    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!
