Harvest Daily Devotion for 4/6/2011: "What the Resurrection Means to Us"
Harvest Daily Devotion for 4/6/2011: "What the Resurrection Means to Us": "First, it assures our future resurrection. Because Jesus both died and rose again, we will be raised like Him. 1 Corinthians 15:20 says, 'But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.' The word 'firstfruits' speaks of a sampling, a foretaste, a glimpse. Jesus is the firstfruit."
The Winnable War - A New Beginning with Greg Laurie
The Winnable War - A New Beginning with Greg Laurie: "The day you make a commitment to Jesus Christ, a very real spiritual war begins in your life. Conversion makes our hearts a battlefield.
The Bible often uses the picture of military battle, fighting, and warfare to describe the Christian life. Paul exhorted Timothy, “Endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ” (2 Timothy 2:3 nkjv). He also wrote that he had “fought the good fight” (2 Timothy 4:7 nkjv)"

Once Saved, Always Saved?
Once Saved, Always Saved?: "Listen to a discussion about eternal security and you’ll eventually hear this question: “Are you saying that since we’re secure as Christians, we can do whatever we want to?” It’s the “once saved, always saved” idea that says, once you are saved, you’re saved no matter how you may behave."
On The Box
On The Box: "Bob Green said...I accept the fact of evolution because it has been observed. Dear Bob,
Observed? Where? [Bob replied]: If you would care to Google on ‘Observed instances of speciation’ you will find plenty of examples, for example from the talkorigins site. However, beware, you will also find plenty of religious sites anxious to push their religious agenda. Religion is irrelevant with respect to science.”"

On The Box
On The Box: "The so-called Euthyphro’s dilemma...You will encounter it again and again.
I say so-called because it is not really a true dilemma at all. In reality it turns out to be a false dilemma. That is to say, a logical fallacy in which two options are presented as though they are the only two available, when in fact there are more alternatives. A good example of a false dilemma would be to say: “Either the traffic light is red or it is green!” This is a false dilemma because in reality those are not really the only two options to draw from as the traffic light could also turn out to be yellow!
