Americans are facing an Identity Crisis as this government pushes toward a New World Order and control of its subjects with a face of conce for the well-being of all, but a close look reveals Obamacare is everything we don't want.

“Quick, Honey,” I said, “get your shoes in the closet, and make sure the remote controls aren’t all over the place.” The videographer from a local TV network affiliate was about to arrive. And the clips were to be used as part of my intro as I keynoted an event. So I dashed around to and fro making sure the house was pretty tidy. Crazy isn’t it? Why don’t I worry about cleaning my heart, my attitude, my habits and complaining tendencies instead?

I ask for something very different from today. First, I want to hear your thoughts. Now tell me, what thoughts fill your head? If they are labeled as positive or negative? Now let's say you walk in the street with these thoughts. Do you think that has met you will be able to tell what you have in mind? Answer number one is up to you. However, as the two can be very generic response. Although people will not say exactly what you're thinking, they are more or less get an idea of how you feel.

After being told that God exists and that Jesus died for your sins, sometimes you may be left with a, "what next?" This article is intended to help people new to Christ and also people who are already devoted Christians to really grasp what that Lord wants from you now that you know the truth. "All scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work." 2 Timothy 3:16-17

Summary: The basis for nuclear energy and tremendous power is seen in Einstein's equation showing that a small amount of matter can yield a huge amount of energy. We appreciate science discovering what helped put an end to World War II in the Pacific and now we have energy for peaceful purposes, but those laws of nature may also apply to life.

There I was, waking up in that quaint cabin in the middle of an enormous cruise ship. The soft humming of the engine played the melody of promises for the day. “Hi there,” my friend greeted me. She must have come in while my hubby left to finalize details for the day’s excursion. I yawned and stretched. “Hey,” I said half asleep. She pulled up a chair beside the bed. “I just came to see if you’re doing okay.” “I’m fine,” I said. “So, do you plan on enjoying the cruise?” What kind of a question was that?r

(THE ORIGINAL SIN) part 1rn......THE LOSS OF INNOCENCE .... ( genesis 3) One of the greatest things to observe is the innocence of a child. Children are simply pure, having a rare form of peace and joy. However, as they grow, there comes dents, which start as little misgivings but grow perpetually until that cute innocence is lost and something else sets in. We all dread to see a child who can lie, steal or even does things above the speculated age.r

Georgetown University Professor, Jonathan Brown, a convert to Islam. told an Islamic group “there is no such thing as slavery…what really counts…is whether those who were enslaved were treated well or poorly – not that they were enslaved.” (WorldNewDaily.com) Georgetown University may be proud of its diversity, but if this is “higher education,” run for the hills--we need to home-school our children as the Bible says in Deuteronomy 6:7. With thinking like Georgetown, it’s no wonder that Washington is in a mess, and yes, Congress is full of lawyer graduates from there.

By Sharon Swing, Co-Author of Listen To My Life: Maps for Recognizing and Responding to God in My Story . Experience turns belief into faith. There is a difference between believing something to be true and knowing it to be true. I can believe the Bible because it is the word of God. I know certain passages are true because my life experiences have afforded me the opportunity to experience them to the depths of my being. My life story offers me solid experience on which to ba

Getting Organized is always top on the list of New Years resolutions. It is important because it will decreases stress, increase productivity, confidence, competence, and free us up to focus on what is TRULY IMPORTANT. And you know me, I like to get right to it so... What organizing really IS and what it is NOT: * MYTH NUMBER 1: ORGANIZED IS THE SAME AS NEAT Just because things are stored in neat little piles or in neatly stacked boxes doesn't mean you are organized.

1. How did we get such nicely rounded spheres from a Big Bang that should have given jagged rocks? 2. How did all the planets come into orbit after such an explosion? 3. Why do the planets vary in distance from the sun so greatly, and still stay in orbit? 4. With more than 100 moons for the planets (Jupiter having 63), how did they come to orbit planets if they didn't explode from them, and what evidence would we have that our moon exploded from earth, or where did it come from? Can we see significance to its orbit giving us our months?

FIRST LAW: Relation of Power to "Tone". The effectiveness of magnetism in action depends upon harmony of "tone" between its possessor and any other person, and in securing such "tone" harmony, on any magnetic plane, in any particular psychic state, at any given time, psychic and physical magnetism mutually cooperate.

Papal visits intersected the jubilee timeline to signal the end of 6000 years when “day of the LORD” prophecies are due; Jerusalem’s destruction is first.

DECISION MAKING Are you decisive? They say that is a good quality in a leadership role. Work roles aside, how DECISIVE are you where it comes to your personal life and its choices? It is true that we all make decisions in different ways. There are those that like to know a lot of information and all the choices before choosing one. Then there are those that prefer to make an easy decision so it is done and they can move on. Sometimes decision making is difficult when you and your spouse have different styles of decision making.

Summary: Christ's warning suggests need for an “exit plan,” but not in a bunker with guns. Prompt action is called for—are we ready? Maybe we should begin to think about it. Matt Drudge spent $1.9 million on a Camelback Mountain mansion in Phoenix. While this shows a conce for security, perhaps we should consider something more like Joel Skousen's view, away from high population areas. Some survival plans offer information that boggles the mind with complexity, but that doesn't need to be the focus for Christians.

When Christians announce the time of God's judgment, perhaps it should be with Good News of how to avoid the judgment that is coming. While “anything can happen” and it seems like “anytime,” in Bible times, God said, “I will execute judgment” in the context of Passover, Exod 12:12.

Have you ever heard of Akiane, the child prodigy who's been setting the world on its ear since she was four? Akiane is a magnificent example of the hand of God in our lives, but there are many who don't see it that way. As a matter of fact, there are many who she was just another rambling lunatic when she first made her splash on the world. One blog post asked, "[Is] Akiane Kramarik inspired by God or just plain crazy?" This amazing young woman is leaving no doubt in anyone's

PASS OR REPEAT

While the title is a bit facetious the subject was first addresses on national TV by Fox anchor Bill O’Reilly and his guest commentator John Stossel. Who would believe that a visit to Fox news would find O’Reilley and Stossel actively debating a recent study by psychologist Miron Zuckerman of the University of Rochester. In fact Zuckerman only combed through some 63 earlier studies, none which were his, and came to a conclusion, however spurious it may be, that those with hi

Summary: The unique timing of a solar and lunar eclipse to mark the beginning of the biblical year in the spring is an omen of when He did so in Egypt when judgment fell as Israel put blood on their doorpost two weeks later at Passover. This spring's Passover will see a "blood moon"--a token of judgment? Wasn't it God who said, “The sun shall be darkened and the moon turned into blood before...the day of the Lord,” Joel 2:31. It will happen this spring!

Summary: Medical textbooks are filled with diseases of “unknown etiology,” and if they don’t know the cause, how can the drug be the cure? Hippocrates was right–”Let your food be your medicine.” For 40 years the drug industry has made trillions calling medical care ‘healthcare,’ creating the illusion of science and cure while hooking most people over 45 into bondage with drugs that don’t address the cause.

I will never forget the first time I read a book, then saw the movie afterwards. It was "Jaws" in 1975, I was in 5th grade. It was so neat to know what was coming, yet anticipating seeing it come alive in front of you, even if you knew parts were going to be scary.

I'll ask you something very different from today. First, I want to hear your thoughts. Now tell me, what thoughts fill your head? Whether you label them as positive or negative? Now let's say you walk down the street with these thoughts. Want to meet someone who can tell what I had in mind? Answer number one is up to you. However, the number two can be very generic response. Although you can not say exactly what he thinks, this is more or less get an idea of how you feel.

Assignment Asserted Christians, Muslims and Jews believe in the same God. Dozens of people spoke against a homework assignment in an Elgin, Illinois school meeting. http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/elgin-courier-news/news/ct-ecn-u46-religion-assignment-st-0124-20180123-story.html Is it just a matter of opinion? The Bible teaches that God loves everyone and seeks to save all from a course of wrong that leads in selfish, harmful actions. In times of ignorance, God winks--He let's us get by, Acts 17:30,31.

I ALSO AND MY MAIDENS WILL FAST LIKEWISE, AND SO WILL I GO IN UNTO THE KING, WHICH IS NOT ACCORDING TO THE LAW: AND IF I PERISH, I PERISH". ESTHER 4:16. DO YOU EVER FEEL THAT LIFE'S BEEN UNFAIR TO YOU ? Esther's parents had died. They had been among the Jewish captives led away from Jerusalem by King Nebuchadnezzar and settled in Persia. She knew slavery and oppression. As an orphan, she was raised by her older cousin, Mordecai. But she refused to become bitter even though she had been broken and depleted in life.

“I dread doing this,” I said, heaving a long sigh, “but we can’t put it off any longer.” I wrinkled my nose toward my husband. “The closet really needs cleaning.” Rolling up my sleeves, I tackled the chore with reluctance. Items came off the shelves —a hot pink Flamenco dress from my dancing ...

As I was reading the gospels today, I noticed a very simple method the Lord Jesus applied to be successful in fulfilling God’s purposes and intentions for His life. This method can be clearly seen in Luke 9:51. It says there that: “ …when the time was come that he (Jesus) should be received ...

Many churches have difficulty finding quality musicians to play for their church services. "We've put up notices" they tell me. "And no one responds!" Even worse, they find themselves stuck with musicians with either inappropriate skills or poor attitudes, and have to make do because they ...

After complaining that I had “too little time” to do all the things that “needed to be done,” a mentor said: “You have the same amount of time per day that everyone else has…24 hours. You don’t need more time. What you need is the discipline to use the time you’ve got more wisely.” With this in mind, here are seven tips that have equip me to accomplish more each day of my life. These tips will work for you too!

So what’s the politically correct word for handicap? Disabled? Or physically challenged? I say, “what does it matter?” The real question is what do you do when you’re part of this group. As one myself, I wanted to sprinkle a bit of insight to those who are tiptoeing their way, riding their wheel chair or using their white cane to settle in the workforce. If that’s you, here’s my advice.

On May 1st, 2008, I stepped on a good size scorpion in my shower and had some pretty awful effects from it. Through the process, it caused me to think about how the sting of a scorpion relates to our words. When I first stepped on it, I thought a needle had gone through my toe & just kept thinking how my 5 year old was 5 seconds from getting in before me! It was extremely painful and when I went to pull out what I thought was a needle or glass, I saw the scorpion go down the

John Donne from “The Good Morrow”. Let me offer you another piece of classic verse: “Ya it’s you – it could only be yournNobody else will ever dornY

During a vacation a few years ago, I was about to fly out of the Chicago airport. I remember that day well. The weather matched my mood perfectly. It was a gloomy day. The sky was heavy and overcast. It was quite a depressing scene. My mood, was melancholic to say the least. I remember feeling quite discouraged and generally weighed down by circumstances at the time. The rain was beating against the window of the plane heavily as we accelerated towards takeoff. Within a couple of minutes we had entered the thick cloud bank and visibility dropped to practically zero.

“Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace on earth; I have not come to bring peace but a sword.” (Matthew 10:34) What an odd thing for the Prince of Peace to say.nnAnytime there is what appears to be a contradictory statement in the surface reading of the Bible, we need to compare the word usage elsewhere in the biblical text. The Greek word “machairan” translated “sword” appears in one additional passage in the gospel of Matthew. Jesus and his disciples are

THE ORIGINAL SIN... Part 2rn rn..JOU EY OUT OF Eden........( genesis3) Last time we considered the first part of the original sin, which was. The loss Of innocence. Eden happens to be the place of purpose, work, and divine assignment. In life, we all have a purpose, a special assignment we came to deliver on earth. One thing is to discover your assignment, the next is to stay in the assignment. Every assignment, has its requirements, every work has its rules and regulations. Breaking these rules would lead you jou eying out of your Eden.

What is a relationship without respect? What is respect? One of the things about my character I struggle with most is how to respect others, especially those who are the authority. I particularly feel this when something has been done unjustly toward me. When I feel as if I must give respect, immediately my defenses go up, the wall rises, and nobody is going to tell me what to do. However, what I’m proposing to you, is that to give respect is not negative, and even though it

Summary: 92% of Congress identify as Christians (Google). What a mess! Christian means like Christ, and Christ didn't run for office. The political or governmental system is broken, the correctional system, education, healthcare, and the religious systems of society are beyond repair. America has sewn the wind and will soon reap the whirlwind. “I respect Franklin Graham, Mike Huckabee and Ben Carson. They are all good men and I'm confident any of them would do a far better job than what we have in the White House, but that's not saying much.”

Robert Kennedy Jr. says that waste from pig farms is kept in lagoons and farmers spray it on crops as fertilizer. Hogs make ten times the fecal waste as humans, so a plant with 10,000 hogs makes as much waste as a city of 100,000 people. The CDC has become a front for the pharmaceutical cartel and it blames filth-related diseases on ‘newly discovered viruses’, and invents toxic vaccines to combat the viruses, according to Jon Rappoport.

Then Peter opened his mouth and said of a truth, I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: but in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him. ( Acts 10: 34-35). THE APOSTLE PETER STRUGGLED FOR YEARS TO OVERCOME HIS: deeply rooted prejudice against Gentiles ( Galatians 2). Martin Luther King lived and died promoting a dream that all men are equal. Nelson Mandela suffered to see apartheid abolished.

I think it’s very important to know the progressive image of God in the different areas of our life, so there be no misunderstandings. Because altogether, there are several types of progression the Lord is moving in, and we should be going from Glory to Glory in each of them, at the same ...

24th December is more popularly known as Christmas Eve and is celebrated with equal cheer and fervor as is 25th of December, which is Christmas, the central most important festivals for Christians. Christmas Eve is celebrated in the churches all round the world. Candle services, and mass is organized on the eve of Christmas. The good night as is it known in some parts of the world, Christmas Eve is marked by pre-Christmas celebration, and Christmas Eve Santa’s are also seen.

THE RACE 3 (THE POWER OF ACTION) GO! At last the very word “GO!!!” this is the athlete’s favorite word because in all preparations, and alertness, he cannot start the race without the “GO” signal, he cannot start the race if the command has not been given. The ‘GO’ command ushers you into the most spectacular time of your life. This is unassailably true because it is the set time for you to unveil all the secret preparations you put yourself through. The go season of your life is the season for maximum output and action. This time is the phase of your life for dynamics.r

With three young children at my house, someone is usually crying, whining, or fussing about something. One evening a few weeks ago, my three year old son was throwing a fit about something. He was standing in the middle of the kitchen floor crying, jumping up and down, and screaming about ...

Dear Brother Francis, Please pardon my lack of exalted titles or formality you usually get, but Christ said, “call no man Father” and “all ye are brethren,” Matthew 23:8,9. Please also forgive me for breaking the principle of Matthew 18:15—I should have come to you first, but not being Catholic, I asked a Catholic friend what he thought of my letter. He liked it so well, he posted it without my consent; I'm sorry this isn't “personal.”

Numerous sciences support the biblical account of creation. History, culture and the greatest men of intellect and character also support creation and a chronology of 6,000 years. Pat Robertson of the 700 Club said on TV, “you have to be deaf, dumb and blind to think that this Earth that we live in only has 6,000 years of existence.” He might be right if he meant inorganic rocks when “earth was without form” in Genesis 1:2 before God created according to the rest of the chapter.

When a woman sees her husband is touched with tende ess toward her from Scripture and that he prays for God's blessing on their marriage, her heart is touched and she may even weep with love for God and him. This could be a secret wish or unidentified need of half the world's population. Islam means voluntary submission or surrender to the will of God. It derives from the root word “salam,” meaning peace. But if one is forced at the threat of beheading to convert or die, where is the “voluntary submission”? This is hypocrisy—saying one things and doing another...

Summary: As governments lose control of their subjects and become the fierce beasts of prey that Daniel foresaw, we see another reason why the Bible is the #1 best-selling book of all times. It offers insights to every area of life, including the geopolitical scene.

Organizing for Women As a Professional Organizer, I find that one of the biggest organizational challenges facing women today is “letting go”. This goes for several areas of our lives. Whether it’s dozens of 10 year old magazines, old Christmas cards, clothes you can’t fit into (and are out of style anyway) or just things that “I might need later” we have a hard time letting go. This makes it very difficult for us to be confident (or even comfortable) in our own homes.

“What time did they say we’d arrive?” I asked the man beside me in the plane. The answer made me smile. Two and a half hours of lots of reading. I had brought a couple of books on CD. With earphones in place, I pressed the CD in the player, loaded with fresh batteries. I settled in my seat, and prepared to delight in the reading. Not. I tried to press buttons. Pull the CD out and put it back in. There was no sound except for a funny noise. I battled, tried and tried. I nearly took that thing apart. I was afraid we’d land before I got it to play.
