Accuse God of wrongdoing. | Ray Comfort's Daily Evidence: "Skeptics often point to this passage and accuse God of wrongdoing. However, God didn’t sanction this incident. The Bible is filled with strange, foolish, and wicked acts of men: Lot foolishly offering his daughters to homosexuals, Jephthah’s rash vow (see 11:30–34), and many others. These incidents were not instigated by God, but were recorded for our instruction (see 1 Cor. 10:11; 2 Tim. 3:16), so that we wouldn’t make the same foolish mistakes."

On The Box: Has Jesus Fallen Through the Cracks?
On The Box: Has Jesus Fallen Through the Cracks?: "Jesus said, "Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends" (John 15:13). I remember, as if it were yesterday, selecting this verse to serve as the inscription for the plaque, in the newly constructed Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Station Memorial Garden. I was honored that day, as the station chaplain, to provide the invocation and a message of encouragement to my law enforcement brethren, during the garden's dedication ceremony."

Sow in tears… | Ray Comfort's Daily Evidence: "There may be times when you do not see any fruit for your evangelistic labors. You are planting seed in the hearts of sinners but it seems that no one is being born again. If that is the case, consider this verse: “Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord” (1 Cor. 15:58)."

Proof that Obama is not a Christian | Conservative Byte: "The term “Christian” is thrown around loosely these days. There are many who say they are Christian but who really aren’t. This is evidenced by the fact that although this is a nation where 83% identify themselves as Christians, Jesus said that only a “few” will make it to Heaven."

Creation restored. | Ray Comfort's Daily Evidence: "When Adam fell, so did the entire creation (see Gen. 3:17,18). All of creation groans in pain (see Rom. 8:20–22). Everywhere we see signs of the curse: persistent weeds in the soil, diseases in the animal and plant kingdoms, earthquakes, floods, tornadoes, and hurricanes, along with human disease, suffering, and death. All of these things confirm the reality of the Genesis Fall, and both redeemed humanity and creation will be restored in the new heavens and new earth."

But if instead you asked, “Who here knows how to find the will of God?” you probably would see a lot fewer hands go up! There’s so much ambiguity among believers when it comes to knowing God’s will. But there are three ways I believe God reveals his will to his people."

Should we try to number converts? | Ray Comfort's Daily Evidence: "There is always a temptation to track numbers when it comes to evangelism. It is wise not to do so, because only God knows those who are truly repentant. It is amazing how many evangelists and preachers seem to have access to the Book of Life by citing salvation statistics, but such numbering reveals a lack of understanding of the nature of true and false conversion."

Is it wrong to be angry with God?
Is it wrong to be angry with God?: "Answer: Being angry at God is something that many people, both believers and unbelievers, have wrestled with throughout time. When something tragic happens in our lives, we ask God the question, “Why?” because it is our natural response. What we are really asking Him, though, is not so much “Why, God?” as “Why me, God?”"

Was Jesus ever angry?
Was Jesus ever angry?: "Answer: When Jesus cleared the temple of the moneychangers and animal-sellers, He showed great emotion and anger (Matthew 21:12-13; Mark 11:15-18; John 2:13-22). Jesus’ emotion was described as “zeal” for God’s house (John 2:17). His anger was pure and completely justified because at its root was concern for God’s holiness and worship. Because these were at stake, Jesus took quick and decisive action. Another time Jesus showed anger was in the synagogue of Capernaum. When the Pharisees refused to answer Jesus’ questions, “He looked around at them in anger, deeply distressed at their stubborn hearts” (Mark 3:5)."

What does the Bible say about anger?: "Answer: Handling anger is an important topic. Christian counselors report that 50 percent of people who come in for counseling have problems dealing with anger. Anger can shatter communication and tear apart relationships, and it ruins both the joy and health of many. Sadly, people tend to justify their anger instead of accepting responsibility for it. Everyone struggles, to varying degrees, with anger. Thankfully, God’s Word contains principles regarding how to handle anger in a godly manner, and how to overcome sinful anger."

Pretending to have our lives in order, many of us wear happy faces and speak words that sound acceptable. At times we’re ashamed to admit our shortcomings, as if they should not exist. Salvation through Jesus, however, doesn’t change the fact that sin is present in our life. When we’re born again, God forgives us and sees us as righteous. Yet our battle with sin continues till we arrive in heaven."

Sanctioning genocide? | Ray Comfort's Daily Evidence: "God instructed Israel to put these people to death (see Deut. 20:16–18). Skeptics often accuse God of sanctioning genocide. However, if God treated any of us according to our sins, we would not only be put to death (see Rom. 6:23), we would be justly condemned to hell. All of God’s judgments are true and righteous altogether (see Psa. 19:9). None of them are unjust, including this instruction to Israel."
