What would you do if God were to give you an assignment to help change the world and increase their knowledge and consciousness of Him? Before you answer let me go ahead and give you that assignment. Your assignment should you choose to accept it and this offer expires in minutes is to go back in time to BCE and explain me to people: with the information that you now possess- knowledge.Are you ready?The first practical things that you must consider is that you are talking to a very uneducated and agricultural society, of whom of the people can't read, probably have never seen a book. You need to proceed carefully because they think the earth is flat. They believe in many different gods and they are really afraid when lightning strikes indicating that God is mad again.They believe that the sky is a dome above the earth with little lights painted on that ceiling and beyond the ceiling is where God lives. They have a lot of other primitive ideas but what can you expec...

The Scrolls and The Grail

DEAD SEA SCROLLS: - Dr Norman Golb is a top scholar who makes aplea for the de-politicization of the Dead Sea Scrolls. His pleais not related to the current argument that Palestine will ownor control the Scrolls but to the Generals and politicians whopiecemeal and with apparent deceit are doling out access tothese important documents for the examination of scholars. Theoriginal involvement of the Catholic scholars and the Scrollsbeing housed in a Museum named for the Rockefellers is of moreconcern to me. The management of the life of Jesus and hisbrother James 'the Righteous who led the group at Qumran thatsome are calling Essenes is why the concern exists for myselfand others who know the ways of the Christologists. They haveblamed the Jews for 'killing our Saviour'.The documents discovered at Dag or Nag Hammadi in the samedecade were fully translated by and they are of equal ifnot greater insight. The life of Jesus as a 'Therapeutae' orGnostic with a 'Source'...

The Occult

p> "Christianity posits the realization of human freedom not hereon earth but only in the Kingdom of Heaven." Fukayama tellsus, and it seems to me he is interpreting what the dogma says;even though it fits his own slave and master concept taken byhis evil predecessors. Right as he may be about Christianity, heis not right about the teaching of Jesus. Well, what good isthere in such a belief system? It encourages no growth orpotential for freedom while you are alive. It gives no insightto actual knowing of what exists hereafter, except through faithin someone telling you what is right. How can anyone accept suchutter hogwash? Are we to be enslaved to such a cosmogony whilealive? God grows too, and he would be dead if he didn't. Allthings around us in nature say change is a good thing. Why would a 'social engineer' like Fukayama tell us thatChristianity is the 'absolute religion'? Is this more expertinducement to be a slave? Methinks there is something rottenafoot,...

Jesus Our King

Mon, 08 Mar 2010 01:02:18 -0600

Much confusion surrounds the person of one "Melchizedek" foundin the book of Genesis, mentioned only briefly in the Psalms,and expounded upon enough to raise many more questions in theNew Testament book of Hebrews. It is my hope that this briefexposition will help clear the air on this very important topic.For Christians need to know about Melchizedek, as the Bible tiesHim to the very important biblical teaching of the resurrectionfrom the dead, as we shall see.First, let us go upon a brief fact-collecting mission byexamining the OT and then NT texts that tell us what we wish toknow. First we turn to the Older Testament.Genesis :- reads:And the king of Sodom went out to meet him Abram after hisreturn from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings thatwere with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which is the king'sdale. And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread andwine: and he was the priest of the most high God. And heMelchizedek blessed him Abram,...

The Wind Did It

The Wind did itTerry Dashner'''Faith Fellowship Church PO Box BrokenArrow, OK You can't find the wind, but the wind will find you and envelopeyou. Why is this true? Do you remember these words? 'The windblows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannottell where it comes from or where it is going.' Wind justhappens or does it?As you know, I have the utmost respect for Dr. D. James Kennedy.He has written another wonderful book entitled, What if Americawere a Christian Nation Again? Thomas Nelson Publishers:Nashville, TN . In his book, Dr. Kennedy speaks of theSovereignty of God, especially as it relates to the discoveryand progress of America. What really strikes me about theAlmighty is His wind.God directs the wind at His command. For example, Columbus'sship was moved along by a mysterious wind. Says Dr. Kennedy,'Columbus's ship, historians tell us, was headed directly towardthe Carolinas. But during the long voyage, the frightened,restle...

Scientology Church Helps 100 Tokyo Youth Learn the Truth About Drugs

Sat, 06 Mar 2010 01:07:41 -0600

The Church of Scientology of Tokyo promotes drug-free living The Church of Scientology of Tokyo held a presentation for Tokyo youth on the dangers of drug abuse and addiction. On a sunny afternoon in Arakawa, Tokyo, the Church helped students learned the truth about drugs. 'The problem of drugs is no longer 'somebody else's' problem,' said the Public Affairs Director of the Church of Scientology of Tokyo. 'Everyone knows someone with a drug issue.' Japan has long held a hard line on drug abuse. But over the past ten years international drug trends have impinged to a greater and greater extent and their influence on Japanese youth has not been positive. As pointed out by an editorial in the Japan Times, 'Until recently, Japan has not needed much of a drug policy, but recent headlines about 'university pot busts' indicate one is overdue.' The editorial goes on to say, 'there will be no way to restrict Japanese students from reading about marijuana on the Internet and becomin...

The Sacred Cow of Being Led by the Spirit

Fri, 05 Mar 2010 01:07:29 -0600

I've been really baffled lately about how dumb we Christians are. I got into an argument recently with someone going on and on about how wrong it is for Christians to love God and yet have a lot of material possessions. Now again, I'm not one of these extreme prosperity teachers, but I see more Biblical support for the idea God blesses us than I do with we have to be poverty stricken in order to show we love Jesus and that anybody who has money, is in sin. But I thought about this. For those of you who may or may not have been in that discussion that one night, is it bad for a Christian business man to be successful? Does he pray that God won't let him be successful? Or does success gauge stewardship in any situation? This blog won't go off on money or that realm. It actually is on my mind in terms of healing--are you suprised? I've been thinking lately how someone tried telling me it's dangerous to say it's God's will to heal all--despite all the Scripture in the world saying so---b...
