| It began in the 1980’s. We lived across the street from a Catholic Church and one evening I happened to be looking out my front door. I saw a crowd of people gathering and it was apparent that some of them were ill. Something unusual was going on and it piqued my interest. I found out later that the people were there for a “charismatic |

| Where will you go when you die? Hebrews 9:27 tells us “. . . it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment . . .” When I was born again in 1988 one of the first things I told my husband was that you can “know” that you are going to heaven when you die. He didn't say anything right at that moment, but he |

| During the 2006 Israel Lebanon war I was able to watch news coverage that was not as censored as that presented in the mainstream media. I was horrified by what I saw. So much bloodshed, including innocent civilians, many of them children. Before I go on I want to say that I am a born again Christian and I believe scripture teaches separation of |

| It was was our turn to do the Sunday morning service at our local nursing home. After the service, when I asked Betty how she was feeling she said “I feel great”! She had a big smile on her face and I knew she meant it. Betty was I think 96 on her last birthday. She lives in a nursing home and is confined to a wheelchair. Her |

| My father is 90 years old and living in a nursing home. He recently had a stroke that left him unable to walk. He's a “good” man by the world's standard, but “good” men need salvation because the word of God tells us that all have sinned and come short of God's glory (Romans 3:23). Nicodemus was also what the world would |

| A few nights our smoke alarms went off. Even though the piercing sound woke us up out of a dead sleep, we immediately knew what the alarm meant. I thank the Lord that it turned out to be a false alarm. The episode made me think of the time several years ago when I was wondering why there seemed to be this vagueness and lack of clarity in the |

| From the time that my husband and I became born again believers, we had a strong desire to share the good news of the gospel with others. I came to know the Lord in 1988, and my husband was converted in 1989. Since then eternity, and the destiny of souls, has become a matter of utmost importance to us. So when my mother died this past March, I was |

| God is just, and he never violates his own principle of justice. In the old testament we read about God's judgement when iniquity reached the “full” mark.

| As I've said before, certain aspects of dispensational theology are currently being taught in many churches, and propagated through the notes of the very popular Scofield Study Bible. Many believers have ingested some of these teachings without actually knowing that it is called dispensationalism. The secret rapture is one of those teachings (see |
