How Evangelism is Like Falling Off a Cliff | InterVarsity - Evangelism: "I was dropping to earth at an uncomfortable rate.

I had fallen off the cliff and would hit the ground at any moment.

Just time for a quick final prayer, and it was time to say goodbye to this world.

Only...I didn't plummet to my death. A rope was attached to my waist, strung through a rivet on the rock face, and held tightly by my friend below."

Bible scripture that prove the science of the Bible

Bible scripture that prove the science of the Bible: "One of the ways to prove that the Bible is true and is the word of God, is to look at all the science that was written about in the Bible thousands of years before man discovered or could even imagine that many of these scientific things were real. The men who wrote these things could not have known any of this without the words being from God. Many of these thing we take for granted now because we know that they are proven facts, and are so obvious to us now."

What should parents tell their children about Santa Claus?

What should parents tell their children about Santa Claus?: " Although Santa Claus is a mythical figure, his creation is based in part on a great Christian man named Saint Nicholas of Myra, who lived in the 4th century. Nicholas was born to Christian parents who left him an inheritance when they died, which he distributed to the poor. He became a priest at a young age and was well-known for his compassion and generosity. He had a reputation for giving gifts anonymously, and he would throw bags of money into people's homes (and sometimes down their chimneys) under the cover of night to avoid being spotted."

What is the meaning of Noel?

What is the meaning of Noel?: " Every year, people sing songs like “The First Noel” at Christmas, and many wonder what a “noel” is. In French, joyeux noel means “Merry Christmas.” Our modern English word comes from the Middle English nowel, which Webster’s 1828 Dictionary defined as “a shout of joy or Christmas song.” The roots of the word are the French noel (“Christmas season”), which may come from the Old French nael. This, in turn, is derived from the Latin natalis, meaning “birth.” Since Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Christ, it was natural for people to refer to the celebration as the “nativity” or the “birth.”"

"What should we learn from the life of Job?"

Got Questions - Question of the Week: "Answer: The life of Job is proof that man usually has no idea what God is doing behind the scenes in the life of each believer. All humans ask the question, "Why do bad things happen to good people?" It is the age-old question, and one that is sometimes difficult to answer in human terms, but believers have an advantage because we know that God is always in control, and, no matter what happens, there are no coincidences—nothing happens by chance. Job was such a man; he knew that God was on the throne and in total control, though he had no way of knowing why so many terrible tragedies were occurring in his life. "
