Out of context – five of the most misused Bible verses | Christian News on Christian Today

Out of context – five of the most misused Bible verses | Christian News on Christian Today: "The Bible is brilliant. Full of incredible wisdom, and more than that, a book that is somehow alive; the clearest way in which humanity can hear from God. Taken as a whole, it communicates the heart, character and nature of God, and gives us an understanding of his relationship with humanity. However, thanks to a helpful 13th century Archbishop of Canterbury, the Bible is divided into the chapters and verses by which we quote and reference it today – and that's where the trouble can start..."

Evangelical Compromisers Launching Campaign for Same-Sex Marriages

Evangelical Compromisers Launching Campaign for Same-Sex Marriages: "I am always amazed and saddened to see just how far some Christians will to compromise the Word of God in order to justify their sins or a sinful lifestyle. They remind me of a child who is given a plate full of good healthy food, only for the child to sit and pick at the food, eating only what they want to and hoping to throw the rest in the garbage. That’s what so many Christians are doing with God’s Word these days; they are picking and choosing what principles they want to accept and what ones they want to ignore and throw in the garbage."

Question of the Week

Question of the Week: "The Bible describes God as holy (Isaiah 6:3), righteous (Psalm 7:11), just (Deuteronomy 32:4), and sovereign (Daniel 4:17-25). These attributes tell us the following about God: (1) God is capable of preventing evil, and (2) God desires to rid the universe of evil. So, if both of these are true, why does God allow evil? If God has the power to prevent evil and desires to prevent evil, why does He still allow evil? Perhaps a practical way to look at this question would be to consider some alternative ways people might have God run the world:"

Writers, Kick Self-Doubt in the Bum!

Writers, Kick Self-Doubt in the Bum!: "Everyone experiences self-doubt now and then. It’s part of being human, and writers are not exempt from this. In fact, I would go as far as to say that writers probably experience self-doubt more than other people. This is because we create things by transforming abstract ideas into concrete, readable words; and this makes us prone to criticism – whether constructive or not."

How Christian Kids Should Deal With ‘LGBT’ Peers and Bullies

How Christian Kids Should Deal With ‘LGBT’ Peers and Bullies: "None can deny the fast-rising popularity and approval of the “lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender” (LGBT) lifestyles.

Ted Cruz Booed Off Stage by Middle Eastern Christians - The Last Resistance

Ted Cruz Booed Off Stage by Middle Eastern Christians - The Last Resistance: "At a recent dinner “In Defense of Christians” targeted at Middle Eastern Christians, Ted Cruz was literally booed off the stage when he started making comments in support of Israel.

Ben Carson Rails Against Evolution - The Last Resistance

Ben Carson Rails Against Evolution - The Last Resistance: "Ben Carson loves nettling leftists. He’s particularly suited for it.

But he is decidedly not on the left’s side. In fact, he’s more in their side like a stubborn thorn."
