** Here is an excellent expression of the need for there to be a Majot Paradigm Shift in the World's Human population! Quit the drive to exploite the sexual actions of people! **

This is from a Face Book Post by a concerned Christian woman; who brings together a very good argument as to the use and explotiation of mainly women and to certain point children! Excellent post and point of view!

As many of you know, I’ve been taking an active and vocal stand on a number of thorny ethical issues like p o r n o g r a p h y, especially as they affect the Christian community.

** A paradigm shift, can and will save those who seek it and then follow through to the end! All else is loss and failure! **
Much of the political posturing is less about caring for the Masses and more about the money on the table for the elite controllers! You did notice that the controllers are not on this so called wonderful health care program? If you missed this very important point either you were misinformed or you are a fool! Think about it! HUH!

40 Years of Study and Meditation at Your Fingertips
By Andrew Wommack
Kneeling beside my bed, I began to pray, “How can I ever be like You? How can I fulfill what You have placed in my heart to do? I don’t know where to begin.” As I opened my eyes, I saw my Bible lying on the bed in front of me, and then I heard the Lord say this in my heart: “Just put My Word in your heart, and it will do the rest.”
That was 1968, and for the last forty years, I have been doing just that. The Word of God has been the focus of my life. It has completely ch ... read more What is Grace & Truth? Part 1 11 y

Living In The Balance Of Grace And Faith
By Andrew Wommack
At our Gospel Truth Seminars, I always take time before meetings to talk with friends and partners. One of the most common questions I’m asked is “What do I need to do to receive the blessings of God?” It is usually followed by this explanation: “I have been praying, reading my Bible, going to church, and paying my tithes, yet I don’t seem to be able to get my prayers answered.”
In that question and explanation lies the root of the problem: They have fallen into the trap of linking God’s response to their performance ... read more Rapture - part 6 of 6 11 y

Those “Rapture” And Other “Prophets!”
Part 6
Are those “doomsday prophets” counterfeit? Some, yes; others, no. In past years, I have written extensively on disagreements among believers, and I have taken, and still take, the position that teaching falsely does not necessarily make a believer a false prophet or teacher, as per the scriptures.
I do not believe most believers who hold to the thousand-year earthly reign, the “Rapture”doctrine, and other related topics, are false teachers in the biblical sense.
It is my understanding that, in scripture, “false teachers” are ... read more Rapture - Part 5 of 6 11 y

A Spiritual Kingdom vs. The “Rapture”
Part 5
Up to this point, I have described in detail the “Rapture” theology, taking my information from those who advocate this teaching. I think it only fair that I allow you to hear from two of my readers who support the position I take. The first brother was, at one time, an ardent modern-day “Rapture” enthusiast. Apparently, he knows what he’s talking about. The second brother raises a point you won’t want to miss.

A Crushing Argument Against The “Rapture” Dogma
Part 4
One of the most crushing arguments against the modern-day “Rapture” doctrine is 1st Corinthians 15. Of the 58 verses contained in this chapter, 85 percent of them deal with the resurrection. Yet, in all of these verses, not once does Paul allude to Jesus descending twice more. Listen to verse 23:
“But each in his own turn: Christ, the first fruits; then, when he comes [referring to one advent], those who belong to him. Then the end will come.”
It might interest you to know that “will come” is not in the oldest Greek manuscr ... read more Rapture Part 3 11 y

Ambassador Paul vs. The “Rapture” Viewpoint
Part 3
Let it be noted that if Paul in 1st Thessalonians 4:13-17 fails to bolster the “Rapture” doctrine, it falls by the wayside. Let’s examine the apostle’s remarks in detail. We’ll read them as they appear in the New International Version.
13. “Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men, who have no hope. 14. We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. 15. According to the Lord’s own ... read more Rapture - Part 2 11 y

The “Rapture’s” Authenticity
Part 2
Before delving further into the “Rapture” doctrine and its biblical authenticity, I think it wise that we identify the doctrine’s composition, for I do not wish to misrepresent. Let’s begin with the term “rapture.”
1) “Rapture” is not found in any of our oldest Greek manuscripts. It has its origin in the Latin word “rapere,” which means to “take away,” “snatch out,” or “to seize.” We must not call “rapture” a biblical term for there is no Greek word that translates it.
2) The idea is that Jesus will sudd ... read more What is The Rapture - anyway? Part 1 11 y

How valid is the “Rapture” doctrine? Will it stand up in the Court of Heaven? Have “Rapture” enthusiasts been led astray?
Origin Of The Rapture Doctrine:
Part 1
In 1997, in an issue of my publication The Reformer, I issued a challenge to anyone who could document any evidence that the “Rapture” dogma, as publicized today, was taught by any “church leader” or “church father” prior to 255 years ago.
No one came forward. It is now 2007. I’m still waiting.
In my research, I discovered that in 1742-44 Morgan Edwards wrote a book on the modern-day “Rapture” ... read more |
