The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: The Titanic

The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: The Titanic: "The story of the Titanic has incredibly close parallels to the biblical plan of salvation. Just as the great pleasure ship struck an iceberg and sank, this great world— with all its inhabitants—is slowly sinking into the cold grip of death. As with the Titanic, where only those passengers who believed that they were in impending danger looked to the lifeboats, so only those who
believe that they are in mortal danger will look to the Lifeboat of the Savior, Jesus Christ. The
great “iceberg” that will take the world to an icy grave is the Moral Law—the Ten Commandments."

The Comfort Zone: Word of Comfort: Mistakes and the Bible.: "It has seeming mistakes, which, when investigated with a humble heart, prove to be our mistakes, not God’s. The death of Judas, the day Adam died, the “two” creations, the last words of Jesus, etc., all have simple explanations for those who are seeking truth. However, the majority of those who ask these questions are not seeking answers"

Obama: Religious Freedom ‘Key Objective’ for Foreign Policy, National Security: "President Obama pledged to continue promoting freedom of religion worldwide and called for the release of prisoners of conscience at the National Prayer Breakfast on Thursday.
“History shows that nations that uphold the rights of their people, including the freedom of religion, are ultimately more just and more peaceful, and more successful,” Obama said. “Nations that do not uphold these rights sow the bitter seeds of instability and violence and extremism, so freedom of religion matters to our national security.”"

Evangelism, how to do it

Evangelism, how to do it: "There are 2 main reasons why all Christians need to embrace evangelism. The first is Jesus told his disciples, which we all are if we are followers of Jesus, to go out and and make disciples of everyone else. The second reason is we don't want anyone to spend eternity in hell because they didn't understand why they need Jesus, and what they need to do to avoid going to hell."
