Harvest Daily Devotion for 3/18/2011: "A Counterfeit Gospel": "I watched a very famous preacher being interviewed awhile ago on television.

Atheist Central -- Ray Comfort's Blog
There are no rules with atheism. They have no pope to wave at them and tell them what to do. They don't have an Atheist Bible to instruct them, and so they don't even have a clear agenda as to what they are supposed to be doing.

Harvest Daily Devotion for 3/16/2011: "The Best of Times, the Worst of Times"

Harvest Daily Devotion for 3/16/2011: "The Best of Times, the Worst of Times"
Charles Dickens' novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with the words, "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. . . . " That is how our world will be prior to the return of Jesus Christ: both the best and the worst will be happening at the same time. In the Parable of the Wheat and the Tares, Jesus paints a picture of the last days in which both God and the devil will be at work.
