Horns of the altar. | Ray Comfort's Daily Evidence

Horns of the altar. | Ray Comfort's Daily Evidence: "The horns of the altar were the place of mercy: “The laying hold upon the literal horns of an altar, which can be handled, availed not Joab. There are many—oh, how many still!—that are hoping to be saved, because they lay hold, as they think, upon the horns of the sacraments."

How Jewish people view Christianity. | Ray Comfort's Daily Evidence: "Many Jews understandably equate Christianity with Roman Catholicism.

She decided that it would be wise to wait until the morning light before going for help."

On The Box: Are There Times When Christians Shouldn't Share the Gospel?

On The Box: Are There Times When Christians Shouldn't Share the Gospel?: "During my recent trip to Syracuse, New York, I once again ran into an angry man from a particularly repulsive cult. The encounter reminded me of a difficult, yet very important truth. Not everyone, depending on the circumstances and the behavior of the person with whom I am trying to speak, should hear the gospel of Jesus Christ from me. That's right. There are times when Christians should not share the gospel."

Prophesies. | Ray Comfort's Daily Evidence

Prophesies. | Ray Comfort's Daily Evidence: "While prophetic interpretations are fascinating, don’t let them become a distraction from your commission—to preach the gospel to every creature (see Mark 16:15). We have too many who run from conference to conference, filling their minds with theories to a point where they have neither time nor concern for those who could be snatched any moment into eternal damnation."

Why did the Old Testament Law command against the eating of pork?

Why did the Old Testament Law command against the eating of pork?: "nswer: Many of the prohibitions and requirements in the Old Testament seem pointless to the modern Western mind. A case in point is the ban on eating pork (Leviticus 11:7). After all, to most people, a good pork loin served with apples and nuts makes for a very fine meal! Understanding the purpose of the Mosaic Law, generally, and the cultural view of swine in particular is essential to appreciating the dietary restriction on pork."

What does the Bible say about selfishness?

What does the Bible say about selfishness?: "Answer: Selfishness is that attitude of being concerned with one’s own interests above the interests of others. However, the Bible commands us to “do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others” (Philippians 2:3-4, NASB)."

Why does God hate sin?

Why does God hate sin?: "Answer: God hates sin because it is the very antithesis of His nature. The psalmist describes God’s hatred of sin this way: “For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness; no evil dwells with You” (Psalm 5:4). God hates sin because He is holy; holiness is the most exalted of all His attributes (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 6:8). His holiness totally saturates His being. His holiness epitomizes His moral perfection and His absolute freedom from blemish of any kind (Psalm 89:35; 92:15; Romans 9:14)."
