As Sure As Hell



 The doctrine of hell has come under attack by liberal theology, along with so many other doctrines (essentially all of the fundamental teachings of scripture are questioned at best, or even ridiculed at worst).

Yet Jesus taught about hell just as He did about heaven, so why is the existence of hell even questioned among professing Christians? Some suggest that hell is merely an allegory, and not a literal place or state of being; others believe that hell is only temporary, that the souls that are condemned to that place will eventually be annihilated, and their suffering will come to an end. I hope to prove both of these statements are in error.

Please understand that this is a topic I'd rather not address; there are a lot of other topics I'm eager to get into! However, I am concerned that people are down playing or even denying the existence of this horrid place of doom. What are we saved from, if not hell: the terrible consequence of unrepentant sin and souls that have not come to the LORD Jesus for the atonement of such?

INVASION OF THE “BODY” SNATCHERS?

Hello Everyone!

We have something special today! A blog entry not written by yours truly (is that applause I hear??), but by a good friend and dear Sister in the faith; someone I've known for more than the entire duration of my Christian experience (I've been in the faith almost 30 yrs! - - - where has the time gone?).

I've always admired her zeal, determination and single-minded love and passion in and for Christ Jesus our LORD.

So with out further ado, let's hear what the Spirit would tell us re: this INVASION of the BODY SNATCHERS:

The Unrecognizable Form That The Church Has Taken On

We are living in the age of deceit. The whole world is being driven by the deceit and lies of Satan and those who belong to him. Good is evil and evil is now good, acceptable, politically correct and now thanks to our very own Government forced down our throats.

HOLY RELICS


The American Heritage College Dictionary defines "relic" as the following:

"Something that has survived the passage of time, especially an object or custom whose original culture has interest. Something cherished for its age or historic interest. An object kept for its association with the past; a momento. An object of religious veneration, especially a piece of the body, or a personal item of a saint. From the Latin "relinquere" - to leave behind."

Interesting . . .

We Christians are perceived in two different ways:

God is One who sees us as holy, for we have been purchased with the blood of Christ, we are indwelt by the Holy Spirit having been born again as a result of receiving Christ and His atoning death on the cross.

Certain people, Christian pastors, leaders, those who even disparage the name of 'Christian', that prefer to call themselves "Christ Followers" (even though they most assuredly are not) see us saints of the Most High as relics from an age gone by, whose time of influence existed before the Age of Modernism (a philosophical system whereby truth is ascertainable and achieved by human rationalism, reasoning and intellect, and that God is no longer necessary as a source of truth).

TBC Article Worthy Of Your Read

For those of you who have never read The BEREAN CALL, or no longer subscribe to this excellent Christian newsletter, I thought I'd include April's edition as it has several topics worthy of review, not the least of which is the Emergent Church Movement.

I'm still reading Roger Oakland's book FAITH UNDONE, and I've completed the preliminary study for my next blog entry: HOLY RELICS. This entry should be ready to post later on in the week, or by next week end at the latest.

In the meanwhile, enjoy the articles from this edition of TBC, and feel free to post your comments about any of them!

TRIUMPHANT BUT TRAGIC TROJAN

Back in the 70's if you asked the average Christian what "New Age" meant, you'd probably get a blank stare. Yet it was in the early 80's that I was given a copy of Dave Hunt's book "The Seduction of Christianity" and learned all about these practices that I felt must be occurring on Mars, or any other place but Earth, because I didn't see any of it happening. . . until a couple years after!

ATTN READERS: UPDATE - Located at the bottom of this article -

A few years later there were teachings, seminars, more books, tapes and videos exposing the New Age movement for what it is: the 'Old Lie' as first proposed by Satan aka the serpent, himself, when he said to Eve "You shall be as gods, knowing good and evil".

What started in the garden of Eden was later expanded upon at The Tower of Babel or "gateway to God" in which man esteemed to elevate himself to godhood with esoteric and mystical knowledge that we know today as the occult, and gnosticism. Babel, under the leadership of Nimrod was a one world order based upon a global (the then known world) government and religion.
