If you can have children around you, it is a wonderful thing."

“I don’t feel guilty.” | Ray Comfort's Daily Evidence

“I don’t feel guilty.” | Ray Comfort's Daily Evidence: "Some people don’t feel guilty when they sin because they have “seared” their conscience. Repeated sin sears the conscience until its muffled voice is no longer heard. This is a tragedy because the conscience in the voice of warning. Those who delight in sin, because they have dulled their conscience, are like a man who removes the batteries from his smoke detector because he doesn’t want to be bothered by its alarm."

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)."

“All loving” | Ray Comfort's Daily Evidence: "The world often gravitates to the concept of a god who is “all loving.” Such a loving god would never judge people and damn their souls to hell.

If then the light in you is darkness, how great is the darkness!" (Matthew 6:22-23)."
