A Look at Martin Luther

A Look at Martin Luther FOR the past five years or more, talks have been in progress between Lutheran and Catholic theologians. The ultimate aim apparently is to bring Lutherans back into the Catholic church. Although some individual Lutherans may not relish this thought, others do. In fact, even Luther would probably look upon such efforts with an approving eye, despite his polemics against the pope. He was a devout monk who had no desire to break with the Catholic church. Instead he wanted to see it institute reforms that would correct practices he sincerely believed to be unchristian. According to Dr. Carl Braaten of Chicago’s Lutheran School of Theology, a reunion with the ...

Search: July 22, 2009 TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE [it is the longest eclipse for 130 years. Total solar eclipses occur on new moons.] "....This is second in the series of three eclipses in a month. There was a lunar eclipse on July 7 and now a solar eclipse on July 22 and then a lunar eclipse on August 6. How does it occur? A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the Sun and the Earth so that the Sun is fully or partially covered. Without the sun’s light, the sky darkens enough for stars to be seen and the corona makes a spectacular halo around the moon. It can only occur at New Moon when the Moon passes between Earth and Sun. If the Moon’s shadow happens to fall upon ...

Pride Day or Shame Day? JAWED ANWAR on 12 July, 2009 GENOCIDE is being committed in the name of “alternative lifestyles.” Homosexuals and lesbians, by denying their true, physical sexuality, are denying the reproduction of God’s most precious and the best creatures, the human beings. Hundreds of civil rights groups, environmental groups, and right-to-life groups in Canada and in the USA are generally quick to react to any act that directly or indirectly leads to genocide or other violation of basic human rights. When it comes to the “gay lifestyle,” however, no one objects to the fact that homosexuality and lesbianism are directly leading to the extinction of ...
A Contrast Between Mohammed and Christ

Mohammed was the prophet of war! Christ is the Prince of Peace! (For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6-7). Mohammed’s disciples killed for the faith! Christ’s disciples were killed for their faith! (And he killed James the brother of John with the sword. Acts 12:2) Mohammed promoted persecution against the infidels! Christ forgave and converted the chief persecutor! (1 Timothy 1:12-13 And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ...

I recently set out to learn more about Islam. I had no agenda at the time except to broaden my knowledge on the subject. What I have learned sickened me. I had previously been accepting of the notion that Islam was a peaceful religion and that the Muslim terrorists who inflict so much pain and death around the world represented a fringe element outside of mainstream Islam. I was wrong. The Islamic deity, Allah, is a false god. While the term "Allah" does indeed carry the same meaning as "God," Mohammed's Allah is nothing more than a construct of a vile false prophet who sought to create an empire upon the rotting corpses of his enemies. Let's review some ...
Why the left misjudges GOP sex scandals

As in Sanford's case, what matters to the Christian right is not so much the behavior of their leaders as the repentance they show after their fall from grace. Evansville, Ind.; and Princeton, N.J. - Google "Mark Sanford" and "hypocrite" and prepare to sort through some 53,000 results, many from liberal websites reveling in the story of yet another family-values Republican yielding to temptations of the flesh. But liberal glee at such scandal will be short-lived if the left continues to misjudge conservatives' reaction to their fallen heroes. When a Republican affair is exposed, the left seems to assume that the religious right, with the exacting moral ...
The Impact of Islam on Free Speech in America

Americans are proud, and rightly so, of the First Amendment in the Bill of Rights, which, among other things, protects speech from government control. The Amendment says in part: “Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press.” Increasingly, however, Americans seem content to regard the First Amendment not as the fundamental working tool of democracy, but as a national heirloom, a kind of antique to admire rather than put to use. I don’t think many of my countrymen perceive how profoundly their attitude toward free speech has changed. But there is a difference between having freedom of speech and exercising freedom of speech, one that has become ...

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof." ~ First Amendment The establishment and exercise clauses of the First Amendment are well known. American Christians have never had to worry about the national government establishing an official religion for the United States. And although they have sometimes had to be concerned with government interference in the free exercise of their religion, it is generally true that Christians in America are free to worship God, organize churches and religious organizations, participate in religious services, and practice their faith in the manner of their choosing. There is a ...

Colonization in the name of God July 5, 2009 “It’s a little known fact that the Catholic Church issued a number of Papal adicts in the fifteenth century that set into motion patterns of colonization that became globalized over many centuries,” – Steven Newcomb in his book Pagans in the Promised Land. The atheist Jewish leadership of the world Zionist movement were very familiar with the religion-based western colonization. They exploited this Christian fantasy of being the “chosen people” – thanks to the Zionist-made Scofield Study Bible, which changed millions of Christians’ perception of the Jews from being ‘anti-Christ’ to the ...

It was Methodist theologian Stanley Hauerwas, in his book After Christendom: How the Church is to Behave if Freedom, Justice and a Christian Nation are Bad Ideas, who wrote: The whole point, after all, of the philosophical and political developments since the Enlightenment is to create people incapable of killing other people in the name of God. Ironically, since the Enlightenment’s triumphs, people no longer kill in the name of God but in the names of nation-states. Indeed, I think it can be suggested that the political achievement of the Enlightenment has been to create people who believe it necessary to kill others in the interest of something called "the nation," which ...

The Bible: What It is The Bible is really a collection of many books. In fact, the modern Bible, not including the group of books known as the Apocrypha, actually comprises of sixty-six books. The lengths of these books vary from Isaiah, which comes close in length to a modern short novel, to the Third Epistle of John, with only 294 words. The books in the Bible are divided into two main sections; known respectively as The Old Testament and The New Testament. Christians view the Old Testament as an account of the old covenant between God and the Hebrews. The Old Testament was also supposed to contain references and prophecies to the coming of Jesus Christ. The New Testament presents, ...

The Holy Scriptures know nothing of a Christian hell of eternal torment. The Christian hell is a Christian hoax. The Jewish hell is a Jewish hoax.The Islamic hell is a Islamic hoax.The Greek hell is a Greek hoax.The Hindu hell is a Hindu hoax.The Babylonian hell is a Babylonian hoax.The Egyptian hell is an Egyptian hoax. And every other hell of every other culture and religion on earth is a man-made HOAX! For thousands of years the religious and civil leaders of virtually every major nation and culture on earth have used the fear and terror of a future "hell" to keep their citizens (always considered dumb sheep by the elite clerics and governors) obedient to ...
Michigan: Judges Can Regulate [Islamic] Dress in Court

The Michigan Supreme Court voted to give judges authority over how witnesses dress after a Muslim woman refused to remove her veil while testifying in a small-claims case. A statewide rule letting judges regulate the appearance of witnesses, including asking them to remove face coverings, was approved by a 5-to-2 vote. The two dissenters said there should be an exception for people whose clothing is dictated by their religion. The woman, Gin’nnah Muhammad, sued because her case was dismissed when she refused to remove her veil. The judge in the case, Paul Paruk, told Ms. Muhammad he needed to see her face to assess her truthfulness. The court rule gives judges ...
Israel is losing the PR war so badly that even evangelical support is eroding

The war that Israel keeps losing is the war of world opinion, the war for individual hearts and minds. Consider recent stumbles. Israel's military campaign in Gaza should have been named "8,000 is enough!" This would have communicated a determination to stop the barrage of missiles from Hamas, using surgical precision to destroy its arsenal, but destroying all of it, not just a part. Enough was enough: 8,000 missiles launched on the nation's civilian population would no longer be tolerated. Unfortunately the operation was dubbed, "Cast Lead." The resulting image in the English-speaking world was not helpful. Lead is a soft metal associated with poison. The ...

Recent news stories advise us of yet another contributor to the menace of global warming, this one arising from the flatulence produced by cows. The metabolic processes engaged in by our bovine neighbors produce methane, one of the greenhouse gasses against which the environmentalist faithful are ever vigilant. Methane is also produced through the breakdown of organic matter (e.g., manure, dumpsites) and, other life forms. In his book Gaia the renowned chemist, James Lovelock, analyzed how methane, produced in the guts of termites, is an essential factor in the self-regulating nature of the earth’s atmosphere. The notion that "self-regulation" could account for the ...

Jehovah's Witnesses, JW's, Russellism Founder: Charles Taze Russell Overview Jehovah's Witnesses trace their origins to the nineteenth century Adventist movement in America . That movement began with William Miller, a Baptist lay preacher who, in the year 1816, began proclaiming that Christ would return in 1843. His predictions of the Second Coming or Second Advent captured the imagination of thousands in Baptist and other mainline churches. Perhaps as many as 50,000 followers put their trust in Miller's chronological calculations and prepared to welcome the Lord, while, as the appointed time approached, others watched nervously from a distance. Recalculations moved the ...
Is the Jehovah's Witness religion Christian?
Post Date: 2009-06-15 15:34:08 by F.A. Hayek Fan

The answer to the question is, "No. It is not Christian." Like all non-Christian cults, the Jehovah's Witness organization distorts the essential doctrines of Christianity. It denies the deity of Christ, His physical resurrection, and salvation by grace. This alone makes it non-Christian. To support its erring doctrines, the Watchtower organization (which is the author and teacher of all official Jehovah's Witness theology), has even altered the Bible to make it agree with its changing and non-Christian teachings. Typical with cults that use the Bible to support its position is a host of interpretive errors: Taking verses out of their immediate context. Refusing to ...

IDENTIFYING THE “MAN OF LAWLESSNESS” 26 The identifying finger of human history over the past sixteen hundred years points to the religious clergy of Christendom. Is anyone unclear as to what is meant by the “clergy” of Christendom? If so, then let The Encyclopedia Americana (1929 edition), Volume 7, page 90, make it clear for the individual, in the following words: CLERGY (Latin clericus, from Greek kléros, a lot), in the Christian Church, that portion of the faithful which is set apart for the ministry of religion. The separation from the laity became more marked through the multiplication of offices and titles, privileges, rights, peculiar dress and habits. ...

The Grand Secret of the Bible Who is the woman Found at Genesis 3:16? Genesis 3:16 To the woman he said: “I shall greatly increase the pain of your pregnancy; in birth pangs you will bring forth children, and your craving will be for your husband, and he will dominate you.” The Bible is a consistent and verifiable source of knowledge….. if you understand the purpose of the Bible, and, the different information lines that run through it. This is, the woman found at Genesis 3:16, perhaps, the most important story line that occurs in the Bible. Why? Because it involves the solution to the question of who is best suited to rule; Jehovah God, or Satan the Devil. In other words, ...
Bill Clinton to Arab Americans: U.S. no longer dominated by Christians and Jews

WASHINGTON - Former President Bill Clinton has told an Arab-American audience of 1,000 people that the U.S. is no longer just a black-white country, nor a country that is dominated by Christians and a powerful Jewish minority In a speech to the group on Saturday, Clinton said that given the growing numbers of Muslims, Hindus and other religious groups here, Americans should be mindful of the nation's changing demographics, which led to the election of Barack Obama as president. Clinton said by 2050 the U.S. will no longer have a majority of people with European heritage and that in an interdependent world "this is a very positive thing." Speaking in a hotel ballroom ...

Home Bible Study Threatened in Bonito, Calif. Written by Selwyn Duke Friday, 12 June 2009 08:30 If the Chinese need any help with their crackdown on the Falun Gong religious group, perhaps they should try to recruit San Diego County bureaucrats. Because if a recent attempt on the municipality’s part to stifle Bible study in a private home in Bonita, California, is any indication, there are at least some in its employ who have missed their dark calling. Reporting on this, The Washington Times writes: For five years, the Rev. David Jones and his wife Mary have held Bible studies at their home in Bonita, Calif. With the impeccable timing of a soulless bureaucrat, on Good Friday ...
James von Brunn: The Shimon ben Yohai of "The White Race, " and His Contribution to Holocaustolatry

Manchurian candidate, James von Brunn has prepared the altar. Now comes the procession of bishops to incense the idol of Holocaustolatry, once again. The liturgical season of "The Holocaust" never ends. James von Brunn, like the rabbis, is an anti-Christian racial determinist. He's mentally programmed to behave in an anti-Christian rabbinic manner. Like the rabbis, who teach that "Amalek" is a genetically programmed enemy of "The Jews" and cannot be reasoned with and therefore must be killed, HERE, HERE, and HERE, so does James von Brunn believe that "The Jews" are genetically programmed enemies of "The White Race" and cannot be ...
Anti-Defamation League Says Garry Trudeau 'Maligned Judaism' In "Doonsbury" Cartoon Strip

Anti-Defamation League Says Garry Trudeau 'Maligned Judaism' The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) on Monday released the text of a letter it sent to cartoonist Garry Trudeau over his May 31, 2009 “Doonesbury” strip (at left, click on the image or here for full view). Several of the comic’s characters, including Sam and Rev. Sloan, are discussing Jesus Christ, and how the one time Christ “really only snaps once” in the Bible was “with the moneylenders.”Which, apparently, was enough to spur the ADL into action. Check out the full text of the letter, here. Not all will agree with the assessment. On Tuesday, the Rabbi David Saperstein of the ...
