Witnessing to Catholics—what is the key?

Witnessing to Catholics—what is the key?: "Catholics are indoctrinated from an early age, and a barrier to biblical truth is carefully erected in their minds. Catholics are taught that everything that comes from Rome takes precedence over the Bible. “If the Pope says it, it must be true” is a cultivated mindset. Unfortunately, Catholics are not taught to think for themselves, and many do not know why they believe what they do. Many Catholics have no concept of what is written in the Bible, other than the two or three passages that are read during Mass."

How Evangelism is Like Falling Off a Cliff | InterVarsity - Evangelism: "I was dropping to earth at an uncomfortable rate.

I had fallen off the cliff and would hit the ground at any moment.

Just time for a quick final prayer, and it was time to say goodbye to this world.

Only...I didn't plummet to my death. A rope was attached to my waist, strung through a rivet on the rock face, and held tightly by my friend below."

Bible scripture that prove the science of the Bible

Bible scripture that prove the science of the Bible: "One of the ways to prove that the Bible is true and is the word of God, is to look at all the science that was written about in the Bible thousands of years before man discovered or could even imagine that many of these scientific things were real. The men who wrote these things could not have known any of this without the words being from God. Many of these thing we take for granted now because we know that they are proven facts, and are so obvious to us now."

Next Up For Gay Marriage Proponents - Force Churches to Perform Gay Weddings » Eagle Rising: "Hello, “gay rights” proponents.

I’d like to ask you a question.

Think very carefully before you respond, because I will hold you to your answer.

It’s a two-parter, and here it is:

Do you believe in freedom of association? Do you believe in freedom of expression?

Wait! It’s a trap! Mind your step, my friends. Think about this. Take a break, meditate on the question, and then come back to it.

OK, now, after careful consideration, I ask again:"
