As God’s fellow workers we urge you not to receive God’s grace in vain. For he says, ‘In the time of my favour I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.’ I tell you, now is the time of God’s favour, now is the day of salvation (2 Corinthians 6:1-2) Ange and I had ‘the big talk’ again the other night. You know the one! We’ve all been there. The day’s work is mostly done. You’ve just had dinner and you’re taking a moment to relax and spend som

A mother of five children faces death for an act of kindness in offering a Muslim co-worker a drink of water. Her mistake? She drank from it first. In most cultures, that would not be a problem, but for Muslims quick to condemn others, it’s guilty of death for blasphemy, but drinking first might show that the water has no poison, etc. Blasphemy is defined as speaking against God, so how is offering water to a friend considered worthy of death? How could a young mother of five be expected to know what would oddly be considered a hostile act and worthy of death?

Bad Religion (Luke 13:31-35) One of the more ‘outside the box’ suggestions that has been made to me lately by some members of our online community is that I should throw my hat in the ring as a candidate to be the next Pope. This wasn’t an idea that I came up with myself, and I haven’t quite decided yet whether I will accept the job, if asked. Even so, as has been pointed out, an Episcopal Pope would be a first and we could expect a lot of changes. And indeed I promis

Money is not everything and will never be. Money won’t solve most of your problems and it can never give you all solutions, so? I want you to get it into your mind that money is just an aid not an end. In this period when everything is sky rocketing and money circulation is tight, I am confident that we all need that extra pound, dollar or naira. Unless you are already a billionaire, or have millionaire parents, you will at one time need an extra cash to oil the engine of your life.

One of life’s great joys is collapsing into bed at 9:30pm and getting lost in a great book for half an hour before your eyelids can take no more. Last week, I was enjoying one such moment, when I noticed a strange scratching sound coming from behind me. I rolled over to see my beloved whirling through a checklist with a flurry of ticks with a lead pencil. It turns out she’s got this great big long checklist of daily and weekly goals that she sets herself that need to be revie

I love the fact that we each have the ability to change, grow, mature, develop and become the people God created us to be. Almost every time we turn the TV on, we are bombarded with hundreds of quick fixes for every issue in our life from weight loss to great relationships, however lasting change actually takes time and effort and although change may be simple, it is not easy. I look at issues in my own life that still need changing and sometimes get frustrated at my apparen

KEEP IT IN BALANCE—The phrase moderation is key is often over used, thus I won’t use it. However, it doesn’t matter if we are talking about your money or your diet; everything has to stay in balance. Our culture is set up to make you “FatNBroke.” You have to have discipline with your spending as well as your diet and exercise program. If you have too many pizza and beers, guess what side of the spectrum you land. I’m not talking about one meal of too many pizza and beers, but

Atheism is becoming more and more common as the years go by, and people actually boast the fact that they do not believe that God exists. Most of the time people will say that they do not believe in God because there is no evidence or reason to do so. The Bible states quite clearly that people who look around at everything contained within creation and deny God are without excuse. Romans chapter 1 verses 18 through 20 state: "The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven aga

Many people are still under the impression that the shroud of Turin is a medieval hoax. The shroud of Turin, also known as the burial shroud of Jesus, is a piece of linen cloth. It was woven more than 2000 years ago. One can see the image of a tall, muscular human body, imprinted on this burial shroud. There are bloodstains on it, consistent to these the flagellation wounds, nails and the crown of thorns torturing the body of Jesus. Some people say that Leonardo Da Vinci crea

Gabriel tells Daniel that his vision of the ram and goat is “at the time of the end.” Dan 8:17. Verse 20 explains the horns on the ram are the Medes & Persians and the great horn on the goast was king of Grecia (Alexander the Great) BUT that was just a historical application that helps us believe what God is saying and if it is really at the time of the end, Iraq (Medes) make this half fulfilled already and the next war will not be Korea or China or Russia, but Iran. More on this in Part 3 nextr

“Follow the money”--Dr. Richard Ruhling’s new book, Turkey Soup for People who are Chicken about End-Times, subtitled ‘How 9-11 Points US to Judgment in 2019’ should be liked by Protestants, patriots and Catholics wondering where the pope is going. Ruhling claims a Jesuit role in the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 that millions of patriots and President Trump see as a problem. His ebook on Amazon Kindle has a link to Karen Hudes, International Monetary Fund ex-lawyer who says 60% of taxes go to the Vatican.

When asked about the end of the world, Christ cited an abomination spoken of by Daniel that early believers understood as military brought by Rome and they fled the city as Christ warned in Matthew 24. This is a parallel to Executive Orders readied by Obama for martial law. Obamacare is Obama’s legacy, but Daniel 1 has a healthcare focus that fits Obamacare. The king of Babylon had a prescribed health plan that Daniel wisely opted out of. Daniel declined the king’s food and wine and most people should consider how to do so today.

“Not random evolution of global warming, but Intelligent Design to warn us of impending judgment on the US,” says Dr. Richard Ruhling, re Google citing of Mt St Helens’ eruption as an omen of Hawaii? It erupted on May 18, 1980, darkening three states with ash on May 19 as an echo of the Dark Day, May 19, 1780.that early Americans saw as a biblical sign.

A Yahoo News article speculates how war could start from Israel’s attacking of Iranian forces in Syria where Russian forces support their ally. https://www.yahoo.com/news/nuclear-nightmare-war-between-russia-113000329.html The article is speculation. On the other hand, the Bible offers a view of how history may be expected to repeat that is good news.

I have spent a lifetime helping others. Its part of me. Its what I do. Along the way I lost site of my real path and veered and every time I did I found myself learning a new lesson. My passion to help people developed into something even greater when I started research ways to help myself out of debt, out of fear, out of feelings of not being good enough. This whole new world opened up to me. If you could see my bookcase right now you would have proof! I probably have every

Obama let an anti-settlement resolution pass the UN Security Council, breaking his word to them and abandoning our best ally in the Middle East to those who hate Israel--maybe setting the stage for prophecy. “The day of the Lord comes…all nations [United Nations?] will gather against Jerusalem to battle. The city shall be taken and the houses rifled and the women ravished…Then shall the Lord go forth to fight against those nations.” Zechariah 14.

Joe Farah of WorldNetDaily.com offers 7 Reasons the Pope Is Wrong on Immigration: http://www.wnd.com/2018/01/7-reasons-pope-is-wrong-about-immigration/ Either the pope never read it, or he doesn't remember that God promised Abraham the Middle East, from the River in Egypt (Nile) to the River Euphrates for “his seed.” Genesis 15. That includes the descendants of Ishmael—Arabs, many of whom are Muslims.

Millions of people worldwide are dying tragically like Prince who are missing a major component of life. Prince may have “had it together” for some aspects, and his ability to sing about life was appreciated by millions. Nevertheless, basic questions must be addressed or there's an emptiness that leaves us feeling mocked by songs that fade into the night as life ebbs away or ends tragically as Prince did, probably from an overdose.

After joint communion with Lutherans last fall, a two-thirds majority of the German bishops' conference adopted a proposal to allow Protestant spouses of Catholics to receive Communion, but the pope stays with tradition in the Syllabus of Errors. Yahoo News

There are many valid and effective Bible reading methods. The purpose of this article is to introduce you to the #1 most often overlooked and forgotten method of reading the Bible. But first, a question: When was the last time you received a personal letter (or email) from a dear friend or loved one? Do you remember the anticipation you felt as you opened the letter/email and began to read? You couldn’t read it fast enough, could you? Now, stop and think about this: Did yo

“[Trump’s] victory, this summer’s Brexit vote and the growing popularity of nationalist movements across Europe have raised grave conce s…at the Vatican” (USA Today). The pope seems to want a worldwide melting pot of cultures and religions that are causing chaos and confusion in Europe as a warning to America before we are tolerant of everything and everybody.

Not too many people enjoy discipline. It’s easier to simply do what we want, instead of keeping to a schedule, saying “no” to some things so we can have the better things later, or controlling our thoughts and actions. But often whatever is worth having in life requires discipline of some sort. All of us spent years learning to read well. A good cook learns skills over time. A carpenter, teacher, plumber, or engineer spends years growing in knowledge and skill in their profession.

1. The last message to Christ’s church in Revelation 3 has 7 parallels to Luke’s wedding parable so the Laodicean message is a wedding message–but His potential bride is blind and naked–serious problem; how does it get solved?

The majority of the death and destruction that came with Hurricane Katrina wasn’t caused by the storm. The biggest problem was the levees that gave way because the walls built to hold the water back were not as strong as they needed to be. Here are 6 walls that every woman needs to give vigilant upkeep to, for them to remain strong. 1. Wise Women Make Their #1 Commitment Time With the Lord How do you grow this deep abiding love relationship I have now with the Lord? By spen

One could spend hours sifting through its hollowed pages and not come close to finding words as poignant and true of the Christian faith as the Lord's Prayer in the Bible. Not only does it mark a turning point in the way Jesus wishes for us to view our relationship with God, but it is essentially a prayer for the Lord taught to us by the Lord himself, giving it more gravity than we might give it credit for. It comes as no surprise that the words to the Lord's Prayer are deepl

A few weeks ago, I challenged myself. I decided that I was going to stop living below my potential and skating by and actually do and be the best I could. This applies to the spiritual, emotional, mental and physical areas of my life. The area that was most beneath the bar was the physical area. While I am not as unhealthy and overweight as some, I knew I could do better. And that was the issue for me – I COULD DO BETTER. So I hired a personal trainer and started going to th

This information is based on the Bible that says God knows the end from the beginning. Multiple signs in 2015 signaled the end-time ‘day of the Lord.” They included a rare solar eclipse on the equinox followed by a blood moon on Passover. “The sun shall be darkened and the moon turned to blood before the day of the Lord,” Joel 2:31. The Hebrew word for “before” is paniym—it means facing the day of the Lord.

Have you read the most-printed book of all time? According to Wikipedia, that book would be the Bible, which is at the top of their "List of most-printed single-volume books" with 5 billion plus copies. For the record, the Quran comes in second at 4 billion. Charles Dickens "A Tale of Two Cities" is fifth on the list with 200 million copies. J.R.R. Tolkien has two works in the Top Ten – "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit" (eight and nine, respectively). The Guinness Wo

For thousands of years, people lit candles at night, traveled no faster than a horse, and went outside to the bathroom. Men have walked on the moon and traveled faster than sound. Science has enabled so many advances that make life better. All true progress is in harmony with natural laws that students learn in physics, chemistry or biology. And nowhere is this seen so clearly than in healthcare. Life is a function of health. The better one’s health, the longer the life, and better mental health enables us to understand others and get along in society better.

When I first started my coaching business, I was 110% committed to making it work. I kinda had to be because I’d cut off all other options and safety nets and promised my family that I’d made the right decision. I was convinced that God had led me in this direction and He confirmed this by opening doors for me and connecting me the right people at the right time. In spite of all this, 6 months into the new venture all my work dried up and I had zero clients and therefore zero

As NY & NJ joi PA, MO, IL, NE to investigate Catholic clergy cover-ups, Revelation 17 has clues that only fit the papacy. Papacy derives from papa. Christ said, “Call no man father,” Matthew 23:9. He further said, “All ye are brethren,” denying the idea of a hierarchy and the top has the title of “Lord God the Pope.” That’s blasphemy (Bible).

One of the greatest laws of the Christian religion is " love your neighbor as yourself ." This is a radical statement that requires a fundamental change in perspective. Instead of focusing mainly on yourself and your own needs, you are instructed to focus equally on other human beings. This Gospel law requires openness to others and self-sacrifice. The law becomes especially challenging when we start thinking about our particular neighbors and their specific situations. What

The Holy bible is the word of God and Christian believers need to take a look to it for all aspects of life.

I have often been dismayed to see ineffectiveness in my Bible reading. It seems that if I miss one day, I am more likely to miss another. It has a snowball effect, and before I know it the one day I was too busy, too tired, too behind in housework, too–whatever–turns into many days that I have allowed myself to become cut off from the oxygen that my spiritual life needs as desperately as my physical body does. When I lose sight of the cross and all that the Bible teaches,

Television is inundated with dark portents of the planet’s future. In a sweeping smorgasbord of choices we are warned of asteroids, nuclear war, worldwide epidemics and a Pandora’s Box of wild possibilities about the end of the world. Confused yet? Is judgment day an equal opportunity employer? Beware the hype of TV’s offerings of major disaster gobbledygook and the list of secret organizations that are furtively seeking the subliminal subjugation of all the poor unsuspectin

“A rabbinic court, or Sanhedrin, has ruled that a Jew who believes in Jesus as the Jewish Messiah is no longer considered a Jew for purposes of marriage in Israel. This makes it impossible for two Messianic Jews to get married inside the country.” WorldNewDaily.com, 9-2-17. Didn’t Moses say that the land would spew them out if they didn’t live by the law—the law that taught equality and freedom? Summarizing the law, the Messiah taught us to love God with all our hearts and our neighbor as ourselves.

Waiting on the Lord to move in our circumstances is very difficult, but the Lord has many purposes in waiting on Him and HIs timing. Here are some reasons the Lord has us wait: First, to prepare us for what is to come. The Lord sometimes delays His blessing to prepare us for what is coming. Although He has spoken "Yes" to our request, we may not be full ready to receive what He has for us, so He needs to prepare our hearts and minds for what is in store. We need to remember t

When you read the Bible, it's always a good idea to pray – before, during and after you open the Word of God. The Bible is a supe atural book and you'll need supe atural help to read it and apply it. The purpose of this article is to introduce you to how to pray biblically while reading the Bible. Specifically, what should you pray about? To answer that question, we turn to Psalm 119, the longest chapter in the Bible, and the passage of Scripture most devoted to Scripture, s

Revelation 1 is a startling revelation of “One like the Son of man…gird about the paps [Greek word, mastos, means female breasts] with a golden girdle.” Rev 1:13. She is the Spirit walking among the candlesticks in verse 20, speaking to the churches in Rev 2 and 3. She is “the Daughter of Jerusalem“ who was blasphemed in Isaiah 37:22,23. Blasphemy is a sin of speaking against God. She was God and She slew 185,000 Assyrians that night. Jerusalem is Her Mother--“the Mother of us all,” Gal 4:26

To be able to develop a close relationship with God, we need to spend quality time with Him. We need to study His Word, and let His Holy Spirit speak to us through it. We require time to spend in earnest prayer, talking to Him, praising and worshiping Him. We need time to look at nature and reflect on all the wonderful creations that He has made. And finally, we need time to spend with fellow believers, to worship together in song and have fellowship with each other, encouraging one another and building up each other’s faith by our testimonies.

“Let us eat, drink and be merry” is an unspoken way we operate, and it leads to the death of our choice--painless in most cases, thanks to medicine, that is also part of the bondage, says Dr. Richard Ruhling, a retired physician who says most people could do better. What does he mean? Corporate America is selling alcohol, tobacco, caffeine, drugs--legal and illegal, over-the-counter and by prescription, that have become a leading cause of death, but in most cases it’s painless, or is it?

“As the days of Noah” is linked to a 9-11 clue–Numbers 9:10,11 because Noah had contact with a dead body as video explains. The text provides for Passover (historic time of judgment) a month later than usual. Israelites didn’t travel in winter, and if they took a long trip in spring and couldn’t be back for Passover, they were to keep it a month later. This 2nd clue is the reason the disciples didn’t understand Christ’s words in Matthew 25:13,14, and again it points to Passover (time of judgment) a month later for His last three Parables that were linked by “Then” (same time)

In Rev 1:11, Christ is said to be the alpha and omega, the first and the last. He is also the “Word,” so that it supports the Rule of 1st Use--where a word or phrase is first found, it often has a context that we should understand for the end-time (omega). John heard a great voice as of a trumpet. The first place we find “trumpet” in the Bible is Exodus 19, when God came down on Mt Sinai. It was a mini-Judgment Day, The mountain shook and everyone was afraid. [“Fear God…time of His Judgment” Rev 14:7] Here a video with more https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBSJQsHrF_k

In life, it is certain that all of us will go through some sort of valley experiences. There is not one of us that is immune to difficulty and hardship. Our perspective during this time will determine how we will get through these times. During these times, we can shrink inwards and become discouraged and eventually hopeless about our circumstances or we can turn to the Lord and ask for guidance, direction and understanding. Although our circumstances may continue to endure w
