Got Questions - Question of the Week

Got Questions - Question of the Week: " According to 2 Corinthians 5:17, “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!” There are two Greek words which are translated “new” in the Bible. The first, neos, refers to something that has just been made, but there are already many others in existence just like it. The word translated “new” in this verse is the word kainos, which means “something just made which is unlike anything else in existence.” In Christ, we are made an entirely new creation, just as God created the heavens and the earth originally—He made them out of nothing, and so He does with us. He does not merely clean up our old selves; He makes an entirely new self. When we are in Christ, we are “partakers of the divine nature” (2 Peter 1:4 KJV). God Himself, in the person of His Holy Spirit, takes up residence in our hearts. We are in Christ and He is in us."

The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: God's justice.: "If we really were deceived or deluded, then God could not hold us responsible for it.” Richard McAtheist II

He does hold every one of us responsible.  This is because our ignorance is willful, and He warns that if you continue to choose ignorance, He will give you over to a “strong delusion,” and then to what the Bible calls a “reprobate” mind."

Pedophilia The Next 'Sexual-Rights' Revolution? - Patriot Update

Pedophilia The Next 'Sexual-Rights' Revolution? - Patriot Update: "The underlying assumption that has led to the increasing legitimization of same-sex marriage is now fueling a growing effort in academic circles to mainstream pedophilia.

Once considered taboo, psychologists are beginning to walk down the same path LGBT activists established more than 50 years ago, insisting that pedophilia is an inborn “sexual orientation,” not a learned sexual behavior."

The Most Relevant Message of Christmas | LifeVesting

The Most Relevant Message of Christmas | LifeVesting: "It isn’t “Peace on Earth.”

It isn’t “Good will to men.”

It isn’t “Wise men still seek Him” or “Joy to the world,” true and wonderful as all those things are.

Read through the different accounts of the first Christmas, and the most common thing you will find is a variety of ordinary people like you and me coming to grips with their fears. And the message of Christmas again and again is, “You don’t have to be afraid.”

It happened to Mary:"

How To Read the Bible, by Charles H. Spurgeon

How To Read the Bible, by Charles H. Spurgeon: "“But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was an hungred, and they that were with him; How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests? Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless? But I say unto you, that in this place is one greater than the temple. But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.”—Matthew 12:3-7."
