| Article Title :: Checking Our Foundation |
| |
| Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths,where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls.But they said, We will not walk therein. Jeremiah 6:16Know What You BelieveWhen we seek to know about God instead of knowing Him, our knowledge will never be complete. Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 2 Ti. 3:7Human understanding of scripture is not the same as was God's intent.For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my tho (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Christian cannibals? |
| |
| Cannibalism - the very thought's disgusting and sends a shiver down our spines! But closet-cannibals are everywhere! You might be surprised to discover some of your best friends and acquaintances are guilty of this grotesque charge. You've probably practiced cannibalism too - more often than you'd care to admit. The apostle Paul warned about Christian cannibalism: "But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another" (Galatians 5:15). Are you still stewing over some disagreement? Is an interpersonal problem "eating you alive?" Are you "fed up" with being misunderstood? Have you ever been "chewed out?" Or maybe you wanted to "chew him up (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Mindfulness and Depression: Things Are Looking Up |
| |
| From yoga studios to cancer clinics, from preschools to college campuses, mindfulness is quite the buzz. Law schools are offering courses in mindfulness as a tool to help in mediation, and business consultants are pouncing on mindfulness as the latest surefire path to better client relationships and higher sales figures. I find all this interest in mindfulness quite thrilling. It's fun to see people looking at ways to pay attention at work as well as at play.Of course, most of the approaches focus squarely on meditation and its role in providing clarity in a variety of settings. The higher the stakes, the more it seems that meditation is considered the only right path to mind (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Christians barred from praying upon Jerusalem's Temple Mount |
| |
| Subj: FW: guest book note From: ***jerusalem.muni.ilTo: dbenarielDear Mr Ben-Ariel, In Jerusalem, religious sites are supervised by the relevant religious authority. Fot this reason, the Temple Mount, which is now covered by Muslim sites, is under the control of the WAQF. Only Islamic prayers are permitted as a result - just as Moslem and Christian prayers would be inappropriate at a Jewish site. The matter of visits to the Temple Mount by adherents of other religions than Islam is under review by the Israeli Government. I would like to point out that your use of the word Nazi as a generic term for authoritarianism cheapens the Holocaust and the unpar (read full article) |

| Article Title :: The Plain Truth about the "Lost Ten Tribes" and Why You Need |
| |
|
The United Kingdom of Israel split in two during the reign of Solomon's son, Rehoboam. The Northern Kingdom of Israel was composed of 10 tribes, headed by the tribe of Joseph, in their new capital called Samaria. The Southern Kingdom of Judah continued to rule from Jerusalem, with the Royal House of David presiding over them. Both sinned against the God of Israel and were patiently warned by the prophets, but Northern Israel fell first and was deported by the Assyrians approximately 130 years before Judah was conquered by the Babylonians and the Temple destroyed (2 Kgs. 17).
After 70 years, a small number of Jews returned and restored Jerusalem and built the Temple. The Jews had been (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Christians Find Untold Riches |
| |
| Ephesians 3:8 Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ.This wonderful verse taken from the pinnacle of the Epistles begins with a figure of speech, in which Paul belittles himself in order to draw attention to something very great and important. This is a common figure of speech called Litotes or Meiosis defined as a phrase that understates or lessens one thing in order to magnify another. Paul denigrates himself in order to magnify God’s grace.Paul in Ephesians chapter two told how the Jewish and Gentile remnant of believers from the former dispensation had been made i (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Christians versus Mormons |
| |
| Please read the passage carefully and note all the pejorative words and ways they demean without fair reportage. Do some research and study hard or you will continue to be made more of a sheep for the paradigm. Ask yourself what role the Masons had in all of this on both sides of the issue including the Mormons, Hitler and other real mind control cults like Scientology. THE MORMONS: The good Christian oversight of Mormons is quite ‘loving’ they think. I often laugh as I see the interdenominational fighting and squabbling of all these cults seeking sheep and maintaining their current hold or demographic constituency. “Who is the One Mormons Call Elohim?

| Article Title :: Chronology of the Book Of Revelation |
| |
| The Book of Revelation appears to be a daunting book because it is full of imagery and seems to bounce all over time, but like an old friend, once you get to know it, it really isn’t that bad. Follow the parallels. Follow the themes. Previously, we put to rest the issue of the rapture. It is important to understand the order of events – what occurs and when. Revelation is not that hard to understand if you grasp the main theme – the testimony of Jesus Christ which is seen in his two peoples, the two witnesses: Israel and the church. Timing is important and this reinforces the timing of the rapture.SUMMARY CHRONOLOGY OF REVELATION:Chapter 1 The first chapter gives us a p (read full article) |

| Article Title :: The Feeding of the 12 Million |
| |
|
Perhaps you have heard of the famine in the Western regions of Africa. There has been some press, not a lot, as we here in the United States grapple with our own issues, particularly our involvement in Iraq.
But a famine does exist, affecting several countries, including Niger, a place the United Nations has called the second poorest country in the world. On its website, Concern, an Irish-based relief organization initiated to assist with the Biafran famine in 1968, offered poignant information regarding the plight of the Niger nation. In a country of 12 million people, 6 million are affected directly by the lack of food, 3.6 million are at risk, and of that 3.6 million, 800,000 ar (read full article) |
