Here is an appeal to reason that should not be overlooked. America - United We Stand Divided We Are United we stand, divided we fall is a saying that can be spoken and understood even by a child. In America it has a different connotation, here with our two party system the saying could be altered to, United we stand but divided we rule. Is this what makes the definition of incongruity? America and The Anti-Christ - America will it submit to the world's last dictator Americans spend more time going over the prophecies of the bible than any other people in the world. They know full well of the coming of the person called the Anti-Christ, or do they? America Asks More Questions about the Second Coming of Christ Here is yet another installment of questions and answers about the Second coming of Christ from a list that took over thirty five years to compile. America Calls for the Head of John the Baptist Calling a spade a spade my cost the Christian ministries a lot in the future if special interest groups get their way. Whether in congress or public policy the few are seeking to muzzle the mouths of the majority of conservative biblical ministers. This is no new thing but beware this a new time. American Morality - A Study in the Lesser of Two Evils Starting out in the twenty first century has to be harder for the young than in any previous time in history. Young people have far more choices to make but most of them are simply deciding between the lesser of two evils. American Style Excuses - How to Stay Blissfully Ignorant About the Second Coming of Christ The law requires that almost every chemical or medicine sold in the United States be labeled for its contraindications or possible hazardous use. Why won’t people take a warning from God about the perils of ignoring his promise to return and judge the whole earth? Amish People - From America's Dutch Country a Lesson for the Whole World After the gruesome execution style slayings of five young Amish girls the Amish community responded with something that only those who are spiritually numb could fail to see. Why is this so important? An Apology to Every U.S. Serviceman or Soldier With masks and dark glasses to hide their faces they set fire to a uniformed effigy of a United States soldier. In the frenzy an upside down American flag was lit on fire as well. Was this the Hezbollah or Al Queda, was this Palestine or Syria? No, these were American “peace” protesters in Portland. Atheists Agnostics and Evolutionists - The Worst Gamblers in the World Most Christians don’t gamble. Atheists, agnostics and evolutionists all gamble, not with their money but with something far more valuable. Beautiful Star of Bethlehem - It Will Shine Again Before you drop your jaw in incredulity and call for your spouse to come see what some crazy preacher is espousing lets clarify. The very Star of Bethlehem described in Matthews Gospel will not actually shine again. But another bright light will grace the earth and no one will miss it. Bible Road Map - Or the Road Less Traveled Has using the bible as a guide, ethics, common decency and plain old fashioned horse sense all become relics in America. Let’s just say, it is not looking good. British Accent - The only Difference Between Madalyn O'Hair and Richard Dawkins Richard Dawkins not surprisingly is emerging as the world’s most famous atheist at a time when the fundamentalism of secular science is in debut. Can Christians Bear the Weight of the Wait To some believers the second coming of Christ seems delayed perhaps even late. The worldwide turbulence among nations and the insanity of today’s fast paced world is enough to cause even the strongest person to doubt. How can we deal with this? Chickens Allowed in House Judiciary Current events in the United States seem to be in competition with Ripley’s Believe it or Not or in some hot pursuit of a listing in the Guinness Book of World Records What’s going on? Christianity - The Religion that is Not In the common wisdom of the day Christianity is just another religion among many in our world. A careful examination will prove otherwise and the reasons why this is true are what define true faith in Christ from mere religious practice. Christians Sleeping - Antichrist Creeping Christians worldwide are recognizing the errors of the emergent church, cults and pseudo Christian religions. What they seem wholly unaware of is the fact that in America there is a movement to silence the voices that are still preaching the true gospel. Christians Thrown to the Lions - Not Rome but in America Yesterday April 25, 2007 one of the most serious threats to religious freedoms and free speech wrangled its way through the Judiciary Committee. It has yet to undergo the scrutiny of the full house but Hate Crimes bill HR 1592 is the most serious threat to religious freedom since this country began. Christophobes - The New American Bullies Phobias are fears. The list of phobias in American culture is growing by leaps and bounds. Christophobia, the new kid on the block, rates a look see because it is now fostering more vituperation than anyone might have ever expected, but why? Crime Does Not Pay - Except on American Television The film industry must warn the public about violence when deciding what rating a movie must carry. Yet on any night of the week upwards of two hundred million Americans are watching thousands of violent acts on their own televisions. Is it ok to feed children violence at home but wrong in public? Denmark Cartoons or Islamic Caricatures - Six of One or Half Dozen of the Other Insult and injury are part of the present geopolitical landscape. Not many apologies are being offered up by anyone and even if they were, would it make much difference, would it avert a war or the next act of terrorism? Let’s see Entertaining America - The Staggering Cost in Dollars and Lives It would seem that the citizens of the richest country in the world are bored to tears. To offset these doldrums Americans give up cash, health and security with ease. Why are we so driven to be entertained at any cost? Four Prophetic Pillars That Mark Where We Are Right Now - The Timing of the Second Coming of Christ No one knows when the second coming of Christ will be exactly. But there is a generation that should be looking a lot closer to at the prophecies than any other generation in time. Without doubt we are in that generation. Freudians Catch Up to Pulpiters - Too Little Too Late In our society we expect preachers and moralists to speak against immorality and licentiousness. Up to now psychiatrists and psychologists have had plenty of the products of media influence to study but have made few recommendations concerning it. That’s changing even though it may be all too late. Gay Cowboys - And Other Hollywood Philosophies What you see on the screen plays second fiddle to the message a movie puts forth. What you see is what you get is not all you get. So, what else do you get? Good Church Member but a Poor Disciple - Trends Toward the End In any discourse involving the word “end” Christians jump to the conclusion that the illusion is to the second coming of Christ and the end of the world as we know it. Other things have to end before the end can begin and this isn’t meant to be a tongue twister. Google Dreams - If I Were the President and CEO of Google To those who turn on their computers once a day to collect a few e-mails, Google is only a name that shows up a lot around the web. For the cyber crowd Google is a burgeoning, complex, impersonal entity that spells success or doom in a heartbeat. It is Caesar at the Coliseum with thumbs up or down. Hitchens is not Great: The Poison of Pride In the sixties one of the more hackneyed slogans of the time was from Friedrich Nietzsche’s Joyous Wisdom. “God is dead: Nietzsche. It was often countered with Nietzsche is dead: God. The prime decade of the new millennium has a new champion of human presumption and pride in Christopher Hitchens. Hollywood Celebrities and Pop Culture - The Rape of the Mind Fans of the fabulous celebrities are prone to cast off all dignity for the glimpse of one of their idols. Many people are also willing to cast off their better judgment and common sense in their unbridled applause of the famous. Where does it end, how did it begin? Hollywood Mayhem Sends Muddled Message to Muslims Unknown to millions of Americans is that Muslims around the world don’t judge America by its practice of democracy. But they do see America through the lens that Hollywood provides. What are they seeing? Hurricane Season - How Can You Prepare for It I lost my home in New Orleans to hurricane Katrina. My wife and I entertained thoughts of returning to see what was left but could not return until authorities said it was safe. We continued to entertain thoughts of re-building or salvaging whatever we could. We were in for the surprise of a lifetime when we finally did see what remained of our house and our neighborhood. I'll Fly Away Not the Song - The Truth is Still Stranger than Fiction There will be a removal of the Christians at the second coming of Christ. Some think it will happen just before the great tribulation and some say it will be smack in the middle of it all. A small number think it will be right after he begins his re-entry to the earth. Which of these beliefs is correct? Immigration in America - Not Everyone is Dying to Get Here America is indeed still the land of opportunity but there is a downside about this nation. That downside is hard for us to see because we are isolated and too close to the problem. It comes under the heading of “can’t see the forest for the trees.” Is America the Last Home for Those Who Love the God of Love The coming apostasy (falling away) of the church is for some of us the most dreaded prophecy the Bible predicts. It may look like the world would be better off with John Lennon’s world with no religions but in fact that will be the world’s worst nightmare. Is The Da Vinci Code Cracked - Or Just the People Who Believe It In Australia it is reported that people have purchased tickets for the recently released movie “The Da Vinci Code” directed by Ron Howard as much as eight weeks in advance. And we thought Star Wars freaks were chomping at the bit. What about this film is it real, does it have the right stuff? Islamic Militancy - Seed for the Next Dark Ages People who have their wits usually try to learn from their past mistakes. Whole nations work to avoid the pitfalls of yore. But will the entire globe learn from its past dark history. Sadly, it doesn’t look that way. Israel is Still Gods Clock - So What Time Is It Hezbollah, Hamas and al Queda ran up the clock, the clock struck one (Hezbollah) and the rest barely escaped with their lives. No it is not that simple but as analogies go it is not all that far from the truth. Katrina, Rita, Earthquakes and Tsunamis - Mother Nature or Father God The question of natural disasters being judgments from God is the most often asked and hotly debated of all questions related to Christ’s second coming to Earth. This has been my firsthand experience for over thirty five years. Here are a few answers. Lessons for America from Nigeria - Archbishop Stands against Homosexuality While America gleefully watches the antics and blatant portrayals of the gay life in films and on TV the leader of some 17 million Anglicans in Nigeria says, no way. Live from New York's U.N. Theatre - The Devil and the Dancing Dictators As if the UN did not already have a mountain of failures to live down, along comes two of the worlds most P.T. Barnum like dictators complete with misinformation, ranting and name calling. Maher O'Donnell Hagee and Hagee - Not the Law Firm Great American contrasts are produced by controversial figures everyday in the land of the free. Some of them lead to heated verbal responses, while others leave us speechless. Freedom and speechlessness may be the great American non sequitur. Making the World a Better Place One Single Thread at a Time If you ask an evangelist or a preacher what would make the world a better place you would expect an answer having to do with religion. If the answer was not pertaining to religion some would label the preacher a liberal and disregard both him and his answer. Mayor Wonka and the New Orleans Chocolate Factory Between apologies and damage control, Mayor Nagin of New Orleans may have failed to grasp one of the most detrimental results of his recent remarks. Moral Lessons from the Animal Kingdom A large number of animals mate for life in the animal kingdom. Although they don’t adhere strictly to this social order in every instance there is one rule they never break. What is that rule? Political Awareness 101 - The Class Almost Half of America Flunked How many Americans know what is really going on in the Middle East? Perhaps Americans are working and playing too hard to get the true picture. What is brewing there comes with no promise to remain over there. Global conflicts don’t remain over there anymore in our shrinking world. Political Correctness - The Liberal Brand of Censorship Trying to find the origins and history of what is known today as “political correctness would prove trying to the fairest minded researcher. The best anyone may be able to determine about it with any certainty is that it is a system of checks and balances whose very premise hangs in mid air. Presidents Day - Let's Not Forget to Honor the Big Three There is little doubt that people now remember Presidents day as a day to find a good deal on a car. How did things get like this? Prosperity or Poverty - What Does the Bible Really Say Does God really want all believers to be rich or is it his plan to keep them poor? The controversy rages while the most important element of all is completely overlooked. What is that element? Question for Europe - From 417,000 American Ghosts Anti American sentiment is on the rise in Europe according to the latest polls. It has even spread to America’s staunchest ally Great Britain. So Much so that British Prime Minister Tony Blair commented recently saying it was “madness” to persist in it Questions That Most People Ask about the Second Coming of Christ The most oft asked question anyone asks about the second coming is when it will happen. Since Jesus said no man will know the day or the hour let’s take a look at what we can know. It may surprise you.
