    Who is the God of this world?

    The best illustration I ever heard was in reference to World War II. The key battle in the war was the initial invasion to setup a beachhead. When America successfully invaded and setup a beachhead in Normandy, everybody, including the Germans, knew it was only a matter of time before the Allied...

    Who is the God of this world?

    Yes and no. Is Jesus the king of Iran? Well, yes and no. God is a relational God and in our current dispensation His rule in our life and world is optional for human beings. Every knee will bow to Him because He is the King of kings, but every knee hasn't bowed to Him yet.

    Who is the God of this world?

    Jesus' kingdom has defeated Satan's kingdom. You have to be a part of Jesus' kingdom to have access to His victory. This is where biblical debate involves too much semantics. It's pretty simple to understand if you want to. If you want to make it complicated, just keep doing what you're doing.

    Who is the God of this world?

    I knew this would happen. Yes, Jesus is the King of kings...eventually. He has reclaimed authority over Satan as the second Adam, however, not every person on earth has submitted to Jesus yet. Satan is the god of the "unbelieving" world. Each person can come out from under Satan's rule through...

    The devil knows our weak points

    We all have tendencies and behavior-bents. You're best bet is to strengthen those areas.

    Science proves Atheists don't exist.

    Thanks for sharing. I always thought people were funny when they absolutely believed that there are no absolutes.

    [__ Prayer __] ugh. guidance, please...

    I understand you're reasoning for thinking that counselors might be out of work in the future, but trust me, it's probably the opposite. As a pastor in full-time ministry for over 10 years, I've never had to refer more people to counseling than in the past few years. I don't see the trend...

    [__ Prayer __] ugh. guidance, please...

    If you like people be a counselor. If you like numbers be an accountant. If you like technology learn how to build websites. Those are fields guaranteed to make money in the near future IMO.

    [__ Prayer __] Christ's pity

    I think it can sound condescending towards another a person if you tell them you have pity for them even if its not your heart. That's why I don't use the word.

    Advice to a Young Engaged Man

    Pre-marital counseling. Taking personal responsibility to another level. Meaning, you're not accountable to God for your spouse's behavior. You're only accountable for your own behavior. Don't justify your own bad behavior because of how you perceive your spouse acting. Be accountable to God.

    Is Jesus God?

    Yes, because Jesus said He was. He was so clear about it that the Jews wanted to stone him because that was the punishment for someone who falsely claimed to be the Christ... 30 I and the Father are one.” 31 Again his Jewish opponents picked up stones to stone him, 32 but Jesus said to them...

    Growth How to pray

    The disciples asked Jesus how to pray in Luke 11... 11 Now it came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.” 2 So He said to them, “When you pray, say: Our Father in...

    Hidden ocean locked up deep in Earth's mantle

    Very interesting, thanks for sharing! I'm reminded of Genesis 7:11 - "...all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened." The flood didn't just come from rain above.
