Harvest Daily Devotion for 3/21/2011: "Judgment, Not Condemnation"

Harvest Daily Devotion for 3/21/2011: "Judgment, Not Condemnation": "Sometimes I think Christians believe they are never to make any evaluations of others, that they are to just be loving toward everyone. While it is true that we should be loving, that also means speaking the truth. In fact, the Bible tells us to speak the truth in love (see Ephesians 4:15). So if I am having lunch with a friend who has spinach in his teeth, then as a friend, I will tell him that. A friend tells a friend the truth, even if it is uncomfortable or awkward."

Lovers of Money

Lovers of Money: "Paul commands Timothy to avoid those who are lovers of money (cf. 2 Timothy 3:1-9).

So, how do you explain evangelicalism’s reluctance to shun Prosperity/Word of Faith teachers?"

Is Eternal Life Always Eternal?

Is Eternal Life Always Eternal?: "I remember exactly where I was when I discovered some Christians believe eternal life may not always be eternal. The moment is still etched in my memory. Shortly after I was saved, a friend invited me to a midweek Bible study at a local church. During the course of our study, one fellow asked, “How can someone know if he has lost his salvation?” As discussion ensued, it became clear he was talking about himself. This poor man thought he was in danger of losing his salvation."

Stone the Preacher

Stone the Preacher: "Ireland has a very distinctive history. It was an island untouched by the Roman legions, and Patrick, the Evangelist, brought to it the Gospel of grace."

What DOES the First Amendment Say? | The Jesus Site Blog: "Once again, another court case is on the books regarding separation of church and state. This time due to high-school officials taking down a copy of the Ten Commandments from a student’s locker.

Atheist Central -- Ray Comfort's Blog: "You can see the fruit of wisdom by the lives of those who follow it. This godless world is like a know-it-all teenager. He gets a buzz from dope, enjoys sex with his gorgeous girlfriend, loves driving fast cars, and going to wild parties. He lives on the edge, ignoring the wisdom of his"
