Proof The Bible Is True

“Variations of this type of giving can be done anytime.”  Admin For many families, a store’s layaway is a lifesaver come Christmas time. For people struggling to afford gifts, it’s a solution that takes some of the burden away, but at the end of the day, the cost normally doesn’t disappear–unless of course you’ve been visited by one of these “Layaway Angels.” People across the country have been sharing stories of Good Samaritans anonymously taking care of their Christmas debt. These generous citizens have been giving their money and sharing their love with complete strangers by taking away some of [More]

Apprehension? Excitement? My wife, Rosland, and I didn’t know what we felt more while we packed our belongings into the rented U-Haul trailer. We’d married young, even for the freewheeling 1960s— and at 18 we’d already added a new baby to our family. I’d just completed my basic training at Fort Ord in California, which meant I could eventually expect a tour in Vietnam. Already I worried who would take care of my young family then. For now, though, I was in charge. We were leaving Southern California for my first duty station at Fort Riley, Kansas. We hitched the [More]

Rose was the youngest of the seven Johnson children, born late in her parents’ life, and named after the roses that bloomed in the front yard. This unexpected addition to the family seemed to everyone like a miracle. The entire household took delight in her every coo. On a May afternoon in 1935, when Rose was 10 months old, she’d been down for her nap longer than usual. “I’ll go check on her,” Mrs. Johnson said to the other children. Her eldest daughter, Bessie, followed her mother into the baby’s room, where Mrs. Johnson leaned over the crib and laid [More]

Padina was ready to kill herself on live TV to earn Allah’s favor and prove the God of the Christians was powerless. Instead, she met Jesus Christ and saw Him heal her mother from sickness. She became passionate to introduce her countrymen to the Savior. Today she leads a house church network inside Iran, including training church leaders to be ready to face arrest, harassment and persecution. She’ll tell us how they prepare to face persecution, and describe the ways that VOM is helping and strengthening the church in Iran today. Finally, we’ll talk about specific ways to pray for [More]

Besides providing superior academic achievement and socialization, homeschooling has proven to be linked to producing stronger Christian beliefs and behaviors for home learners when they become adults. A Closer LookBoth homeschooling and frequent church attendance are positively connected to children exhibiting a devout Christian faith in adulthood, according to a new online survey conduct by the National Home Education Research Institute (NHERI). When children and teens have one-on-one instruction from their parents and receive weekly spiritual guidance at church, they develop a stalwart faith as millennials (18?38-year-olds). NHERI also found that more years of homeschooling is linked to making more [More]

“Please remember to keep him in your prayers.”   Admin Neghmeh Abedini is praising God this week—not because her husband, persecuted American pastor Saeed, has been released from an Iranian prison—rather, because Saeed is experiencing the manifest presence of God. “Saeed’s father was able to see Saeed in prison today (behind a glass window). It was a wonderful time of fellowship and Saeed got to hear of all of your prayers and words of encouragement that you had shared. Nothing encourages him more than to know that you are all praying for him and that he is not forgotten,” Abedini wrote [More]

Our brains are very active. Research indicates that we think 70,000 thoughts daily on the average. I am intrigued by this; so I decided to try an experiment on myself. In our comfy recliner, all alone, the house was quiet. In that silence, I purposefully tried to sit without engaging my mind. I soon realized plenty of thoughts were forming. “What was I going to do today? What was God going to do for our ministry? Oh, I had to do laundry, I need to write that article.” I think you get the picture. My mind was racing—and my thoughts [More]

“It’s clear from this article that God was indeed involved in the founding of this country, it’s just too bad that we have turned our back on Him and in so doing we will have only ourselves to blame for whatever evil befalls us.”  Admin “Our rifles were leveled—rifles which, but for him, knew not how to miss. Twas all in vain; a power far mightier than we shielded him from harm. He cannot die in battle. The Great Spirit protects that man, and guides his destinies. He will become chief of nations, and a people yet unborn will hail [More]

“Excellent article on Washington with numerous quotes from him relating to God and the Bible. Our poor nation is in desperate need of another Washington today but instead we have the exact opposite much to our ruin.” Admin Washington was unanimously chosen as the Army’s Commander-in-Chief, unanimously chosen as President of the Constitutional Convention, and unanimously chosen as the first U.S. President. As General, Washington acknowledged God after victories throughout the Revolution and as President thanked God for the Constitution, October 3, 1789: “Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the Providence of Almighty God… I do [More]

By noreply@blogger.com (Activist) by Daisy Luther One of the most common reasons that people give for not prepping is the cost involved. People seem to have this mental image of a bedroom or basement dedicated to being filled to the rafters with cans of Chef-Boy-Ardee. They imagine someone going out and spending $5000 at a time for a year’s worth of food, or perhaps an 18-wheeler backing up into their driveway and unloading the contents with a forklift. It’s time to learn a whole new way to shop. Thrift is of the utmost importance if you want to be able [More]

The groans of a dying man kept him awake in the little inn outside New York. But he was hardened to the cries because a college friend at Brown University named Jacob Eames had persuaded him to become a skeptic deist. The next morning, when inquiring of the innkeeper, he learned the man who had died in the night was none other than Jacob Eames, his college friend. Discover more of Bill Federer’s eye-opening books and videos in the WND Superstore! This rude awakening led him to become America’s first foreign missionary to Burma, modern day Myanmar.

Castor oil is often overlooked for its benefits for the skin and hair because of its extremely thick and sticky consistency. However, if you’re looking for a cheap, natural remedy for several common skin and hair complaints, then castor oil is definitely worth your time. Castor oil for regrowing and thickening hair, eyelashes and eyebrows I first stumbled on castor oil as a remedy for regrowing thin eyebrows.

A few years ago, people exploring caves outside Jerusalem came across the find of a lifetime: an ancient burial cave containing the remains of a crucified man. This find is only one in a series of finds that overturns a century-old scholarly consensus. That consensus held that the Gospels are almost entirely proclamation and contain little, if any, real history. The remains belonged to a man who had been executed in the first century A.D., that is, from the time of Jesus. As Jeffrey Sheler writes in his book Is the Bible True? the skeleton confirms what the evangelists wrote [More]

We live in a corrupt world where temptation is a part of life. In this sermon, Dr. Stanley discusses that though everyone deals with temptation differently Jesus showed us—through His own trial on Earth—what the best defense is.

Friendships are a gift from God. And while they are His blessing to us, the most blessed friendship we can have is with our Lord. In this sermon, Dr. Stanley praises God for bringing friends into our lives and explains the importance of having relationships with others and with Christ.

God loves us and desires to meet the needs of our lives. He promises to answer our prayers, but not always according to our timing or method. Dr. Stanley reminds us that waiting on the Lord is a vital principle for every Christian. God, above all others, knows when the timing is right for His perfect plan to go into action. After all, He knows our lives from beginning to end, so He knows exactly where we are at this moment.

Pastor Richard Wurmbrand—the founder of The Voice of the Martyrs—had a way with words. In several countries around the world, I’ve met people who, usually with a gleam in their eye, have shared their experience of meeting Richard or Sabina. Many times, they remember a specific quote from a talk that Richard gave. He was a powerful, and profound, communicator. Not long ago, we gathered the entire VOM staff into a large room for a prayer gathering. We share chapel together each week, but this event was unique. It was one of the times each year we gather in a [More]

Well, that’s it women do need more beauty rest than men! According to a recent study, women need more sleep than men do.

How much does each sex need? Many factors come into hand, but experts believe that it comes down to mental energy expenditure. Read More  Why Women Need More Sleep Than Men: Research [More]

“Fascinating article on the spiritual life of famed artist Vincent Van Gogh and how his religious paintings and writings have been kept hidden for many years.”  Admin “The best way to know God is to love many things,” said Vincent Van Gogh. Most of us know the sordid story of a lovelorn Van Gogh chopping off his own ear. Yet Van Gogh’s original heartbreak didn’t come from a French prostitute or the estrangement from his fellow painter Paul Gauguin, but from the church. The frayed narrative of Van Gogh’s crummy love life and repeated rejection at the hands of les [More]
