The answer is a Biblically-proven “no.” Prayer is based on FAITH that what one prays for is GOD’S WILL and that He will answer the prayer in a positive way. The question then becomes, what is His will? The answer can be found only in His Holy Bible. Let us understand that no one prompted […]
Is Prayer The Answer To America’s Problems? (Pt. 5)
As stated in the previous posting, cowardly religious leaders and politicians lack the spiritual spine to tell the American people, specifically the church, the Biblical Truth–that it is their sins that causes God to repeatedly curse them individually and nationally. For example, God has promised good health to those who obey Him. Yet the medical […]
Is Prayer The Answer To America’s Problems? (Pt. 4)
As did her Israelite ancestors, the United States has for much of her existence found herself experiencing one major catastrophe after another. Periodic wars, disease epidemics, economic recessions, a depression, invasion, weather disasters, etc. have continually plagued this God-established, God-blessed nation. As a result of her insistence on sinning, presidents and other known figures have […]
Is Prayer The Answer To America’s Problems? (Pt. 3)
God established the nation of Israel to be the light of the ancient heathen world. Her stated commission was to set an example of holiness for the Gentiles to see, embrace and follow in that God wants all men, including Gentiles, to be saved by becoming spiritual Israelites. As the Old Testament graphically reveals, God’s […]
Is Prayer The Answer To America’s Problems? (Pt. 2)
Since her founding in 1776 the United States of America has, like her ancient Israelite ancestors, repeatedly obeyed and sinned herself into and out of God’s favor. The Old Testament chronicles the spiritual ins and outs of the Israelites as they repeatedly sinned themselves into insurmountable problems, then obeyed themselves back into God’s good graces. […]
Is Prayer The Answer To America’s Problems? (Pt. 1)
The answer is “no.” The people of the United States, who profess to trust in Him and to be united under Him are beginning to learn a valuable lesson. Church-rich America is learning the hard way that religious business-as-usual does not produce help from on high. And she is not alone. In a recent survey, […]
Traditional Christianity’s “New Normal” (Pt. 5)
In this modern, constantly evolving, God-rejecting, religion-saturated nation, sin is an accepted, “normal” aspect of “Christian life.” Sins such as adultery, homosexuality, drug use, religion-mixing, witchcraft and Scripture (God) rejection fail to raise so much as an eyebrow. Two episodes witnessed by people around the world prove that the United States, the “One Nation Under […]
Traditional Christianity’s “New Normal” (Pt. 4)
In church circles, as in the world in general, the “new normal” is whatever makes people feel good about themselves at the moment. A few years from that moment another moment will arrive, bringing with it yet another “new normal.” As the student of the Scriptures knows, this process began shortly after the establishment of […]
Traditional Christianity’s “New Normal” (Pt. 3)
In the social world, new results in improvement in the life of the people, even when the new is contrary to God’s Word, abortion being a prime example. In the spiritual world, new always results in death, the acceptance of homosexuality being a prime example. In society “normal” is constantly changing. In God’s world, “normal” […]
Traditional Christianity’s “New Normal” (Pt. 2)
Spiritual change initiated by anyone other than God Himself is condemned. So says the Lord. Any change in man’s spiritual “walk” (life-1 Jn. 2:6) is “abnormal” in the eyes of the Almighty. Any change man makes in his spiritual “normal” is always self-serving and is therefore automatically deemed “good.” Any change that man deems “good” […]
