Elijah's Ascension

| |

I recently read Shocked By the Bible* by Joe Kovacs. In its pages, I found an interesting claim. It involves the ascension of Elijah, described in 2 Kings, chapter 2. Kovacs' claim is that Elijah was not translated directly to the third heaven to be with the Lord, as is commonly held. » read more »

Christian Left

|

I've been seeing the term "Christian Left" used. Of course, there's no such thing. The principles of leftism are diametrically opposed to Biblical Christianity. For example, wealth redistribution is theft. Building codes, zoning ordinances, and imminent domain are, too. Abortion is murder. Tolerance of evil is evil. Universalism is satanic. These leftists philosophies are in direct and obvious violation of Scripture. Anyone who follows them cannot righteously claim to be Christian.

Worldviews and Policies

|

I'd like to add my two cents to the issue of "green" gasoline, specifically how worldviews affect government policies. Incorrect, antibiblical worldviews make us to be intruders and destroyers of this world; therefore we must be subjugated to government control, even to the point of telling us when we can use which kinds of fuel. The correct, Biblical worldview tells us this world was made to sustain us. If the world was made for us, it follows that it was made sufficient for us. » read more »

Signs of the end?

Another potential pandemic has been identified. This time, it's "swine flu". Some anecdotal reports suggest the fatalities are much worse than what is being reported. The conspiracy nuts, of course, are stupidly thinking it's a U.N. attack meant to thin populations. Others are saying it's fulfillment of Luke 22:11. » read more »

Be Encouraged; The End Is Near

Jim Fletcher offers encouragement to all believers, because the end is in sight.

If we believe that the Creator chose to communicate with man through written language, we can see for ourselves that the Bible is fairly straightforward. History had a beginning and it will have an ending. The world groans under a curse brought about by Adam and Eve's sin. » read more »

Witnessing to false believers

|

Does doctrine matter? Most of today's churches will tell you it doesn't. They promote an emotional experience, but without a decent doctrine (not necessarily a perfect one), this experience may be with a god that is not יהוה (the LORD). How, then, might a true believer witness to or otherwise reach someone who professes to believe but actually believes in a false god? If a man claims to be a Christian but the "christ" he knows is a false one, how can he be reached to show that he still needs the very salvation he wrongly thinks he has? » read more »
