By Jack Heckathorne America, since it inception, has been different than any other country in history. We are a nation, barely two hundred and thirty years old, and yet in our first century became the richest, most powerful and influential nation the world has ever known. Our land has produced many natural resources such as […] The Ten Commandments which God gave to Moses are for the purpose of defining what sin actually is. Sin is rebellion against God. Sin is an absolute. […] The nation of Israel was founded by God himself. God made a promise to Abraham that his descendants would eventually become a great nation. […] First of all are you a Christian? A Christian is not someone who simply joins a church, gets baptized, does a lot of good works, walks down the isle, repents of his sins, confesses his sins, feels sorry for his sins, invites Jesus into his heart or just claims to be of the Christian faith. If this is all you have done you are not saved. […] There are those who believe that Paul and James contradict each other in their writings. However, properly understood, they actually compliment each other. […] Whenever I debate this topic with anyone I always ask the question “What evidence exists today that proves there was ever an ice age?” […] He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows; and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised; and we esteemed him not. […] There have been many types of Greek in the past most of which are obsolete now but in the days of Alexander the Great a number of Greek languages existed. […] “Therefore shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh” (Genesis 2: 18, 21-23) […] This is a far cry from what the modern world considers happiness. People consider the ecstatic emotional response from money and material possessions happiness or perhaps a relationship with another person. […] |
