Must Watch: Hobby Lobby Releases Video Attacking Obamacare

Must Watch: Hobby Lobby Releases Video Attacking Obamacare: "This administration has declared war on religious liberty.  The message to committed Christians has been clear: Keep your religion inside your church walls, and don’t you dare try to practice your faith in public lest you suffer the wrath of Leviathan.

For many Christian churches, businesses (both large and small), adoption agencies, and charities, the bond between faith and practice in the public square is inseparable.  This means that these organizations adopt policies consistent with the dictates of Christian ethics.  Unfortunately, these policies are being undermined by an executive who never ceases to overstep its bounds."

Christian leaders in the Agatu Local Government Area of central Nigeria’s Benue state said ethnic Fulani herdsmen were responsible for raids on two villages that left seven Christians dead on Sunday morning (Jan. 19), though a Fulani spokesman said the assailants must have come from elsewhere as there are no Fulani herdsmen known in the area."

What does the Bible say about selflessness?

What does the Bible say about selflessness?: "Answer: The characteristic of being selfless is one of the most important traits any Christian can have. It’s so significant that Jesus said it is the second most important of all God’s commandments: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself” (Mark 12:31; cf. Galatians 5:14). Jesus wasn’t creating a new law here; He was merely agreeing with and expounding on an Old Testament law (Leviticus 19:18). James calls this the “royal” law to emphasize its supreme value to God (James 2:8)."

Got Questions - Question of the Week

Got Questions - Question of the Week: "Answer: Since the fall of man, the basis of salvation has always been the death of Christ. No one, either prior to the cross or since the cross, would ever be saved without that one pivotal event in the history of the world. Christ's death paid the penalty for past sins of Old Testament saints and future sins of New Testament saints."
