Proof The Bible Is True

It was the day after Christmas in 1994, and with two toddler girls, I was exhausted. The past few days had been hectic with shopping, baking, wrapping gifts and making rounds to visit grandparents. This was the day I was looking forward to. I already had plans to stay home, sleep late and watch my babies play with their new toys. But now I was in a huff because I had been awakened abruptly. It was almost like someone had hit me to wake me up. I rolled over and looked at the clock to see what time it was, [More]

The North Korean government has built a counterfeit religion to control it s people, a mirror image of Christianity that features their own trinity, their own meeting halls, their own sacred writings and even their own hymns to their god — Kim Il Sung. Following a different deity, like Jesus Christ, is a treasonous act deserving of death. Many describe North Korea as “the worst place in the world to be a Christian.” But Dr. Eric Foley, the leader of VOM Korea, tells us that North Korean Christians don’t say that! Instead they focus on serving Jesus Christ in spite [More]

Balloon launches are one of the key ways VOM is delivering Bibles into North Korea. This week on VOM Radio, Dr. Eric Foley shares how weather balloon and GPS technology are even allowing us to pinpoint where the Bibles are landing. Recently North Korean government press also confirmed the delivery of these Bibles, and threatened to turn South Korea into a ‘sea of fire’ if the balloon launches continued. Dr. Foley tells how South Korean police tried to stop the balloon launches after the threats…and how God opened a path. He and VOM Radio host Todd Nettleton also discuss the [More]

Naghmeh Abedini, the wife of imprisoned pastor Saeed Abedini, has warned the Church against pursuing fame and wealth. (Facebook/Naghmeh Abedini)   Having travelled across America for the last three years raising awareness of persecution, Abedini said she has observed “the condition of the body of Christ”.   “Pursuing fame, wealth and ‘followers/numbers’ has become normal in the Christian world. We are becoming like the world and we are totally OK with that. Yet the scripture has serious warnings even calling us ENEMIES OF GOD,” Abedini wrote on Facebook on Sunday.   Abedini has committed to a three week fast accompanied [More]

As millions of Christians flee the Middle East and Christianity’s original homeland becomes increasingly bereft of Christians, an odd anomaly is occurring.   Christianity in the Gulf states is surging. Amid a shocking exodus in neighbouring countries, this strictly Islamic region has seen a jump in its Christian population. Figures show that in both Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, Christianity was practically non existent just over a hundred years ago. There were only 80 Christians in the UAE in 1910 (0.1 per cent of the population) and 50 in Saudi Arabia, even less than 0.1 per cent, according [More]

“The stats mentioned about which refugees Mr. O is letting in clearly show he is a lying hypocrite when he claims to be a Christian. This along with his remarks about Islam vs. Christianity demonstrate what religion he really follows.”  Admin   As Muslim jihadis, mobs and regimes terrorized Christians and others throughout the world of Islam, in the West, institutions—from governments to grade schools—empowered and praised Islam, often at the expense of Christians.   On November 2, a group of Muslims stormed the Church of our Lady of Carmen, in the town of Rincon de la Victoria, Spain, and [More]

This book, by Richard Swanson, was published in 1986 and contains many dreams and visions people have had regarding judgement coming on the US. The first half of the book deals with the reasons why God would bring judgement on America (we have added many more reasons over the last 20 yrs.). The second half of the book contains many dreams and visions people have had regarding what that judgement will be. The judgements in this book parallel those that I put on this site, a Russian nuclear attack on the US followed by an invasion. With so many dreams [More]

Among your new years’ resolutions, maybe you should include this: pledging to become a rebel, especially if you are a college student or work for a Christian institution. I know, I know – for Christians, “rebellion” has a bad reputation. It sounds unprincipled and sinful. But the Bible has another term for it: standing in the…

Are our churches dying? Are young people leaving the church in droves? Is evangelicalism in America all but dead? At the start of a new year, it’s good to take honest stock of where we are, so we can adjust accordingly. I had the privilege recently of interviewing for Christian television a leading church statistician of…

Syndicated TV and radio host Todd Friel says evangelicals have no one to blame but themselves for the decline of America. The host of “Wretched Radio” and “Wretched TV,” Friel says with 350,000 Protestant churches in America, the national anthem should be the hymn “A Mighty Fortress is Our God.” “And instead we have legalized abortion, legalized gay marriage, and Bruce Jenner is the woman of the year,” he tells OneNewsNow. In his new book, Judge Not, Friel explains why he feels the Christian church is to blame. Read More: Author: Trends among some evangelicals unbiblical

A man walked into a North Carolina church with a semi-automatic rifle on Thursday, but the pastor says that he left a new creation in Christ. The incident happened as the congregation of Heal the Land Outreach Ministries in Fayetteville as they were holding their year-end prayer service, which included a time of exhortation from Pastor Larry Wright, who also serves as a councilman in the city. According to reports, Wright was speaking about the “senseless deaths” in Fayetteville as the man entered. The man, who has not yet been identified, walked toward the front of the room, pointing his [More]

Life isn’t easy – it’s a fight. You have to fight for your marriage, the hearts of your kids, to pay the bills, to keep the weight off, to stay morally, physically and mentally strong. And if you get knocked down, you’ve got to get back up and keep fighting. Thank God there are moments of…

Rafael Cruz By Paul Bremmer Going to church is the quintessential experience for many Christians in America. On Sunday mornings they gather inside a familiar building to sing, pray, commune, and hear a portion of the Word of God. But being a Christian is about far more than going to church once a week, according to…

The world’s first global research and investigation into the Christian response to persecution shows that circumstances and situations surrounding the attack determines the victims’ response. Family Research Council’s Travis Weber attended the “Under Caesar’s Sword” conference in Rome to learn more about the extensive research conducted over three years and cost more than $1 million. Weber spoke with CBN News’ Lorie Johnson about the findings of the research. Click play to watch. Read More: Under Caesar’s Sword: How Have Christians Responded to Persecution? | CBN.com (beta)

Biblical expert Joshua McDowell says modern research and archaeology are steadily shrinking the list of alleged contradictions and discrepancies that fueled Bible doubters for centuries. In his latest book, 77 FAQs About God and the Bible, McDowell answers questions like “What proof is there that Jesus is Messiah?” and “Is the Bible a product of God, humans, or both?” Read More: Josh McDowell: Apparent Contradictions, Discrepancies Disappearing | CBN.com (beta)

The Chinese government is known for keeping secrets, but that changed when it revealed this summer that drug use has now spread into 90 percent of the country. To battle this epidemic, residents of one Chinese province are relying on prayer to help addicts kick the habit. CBN News traveled to the southwest part of Yunnan Province, near the border of China and Myanmar. Nestled at the foothills of a mountain range lies a unique drug rehabilitation program that is mixing prayer and Bible study to change the destiny of addicts. “We rely only on God, on His mighty power, [More]

I once heard it said that it is wrong to take the worst things about someone else’s religion and compare them to the best things in your religion. Is that what we are doing when we compare Islam to Christianity, looking at the worst aspects of Islam and the Quran and comparing them to the best…

Christian persecution has dominated the news over the past year. From the escalating chaos in the Middle East to the crackdown on churches in China’s Zhejiang province, it’s been a terrible year for some of the world’s most persecuted minorities.   “The level of persecution globally is at horrifying levels,” Dr Katrina Lantos Swett, Commissioner for the US Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF), told Christian Today. “It quite frankly stuns me that there has not been more outcry internationally amongst political leaders, opinion makers and most importantly on the part of ordinary Christians.”   Every repressive government or ideological [More]

About 75 percent of Americans still identify as Christians, after a 5-percent drop since 2008, according to a new Gallup poll, which also shows that the number of those having no formal religious identification has increased by 5 percent, amounting to 20 percent.   A review of more than 174,000 interviews conducted by Gallup this year shows that three-quarters of American adults identify as Christians, little changed from 2014, but down from 80 percent eight years ago, the survey says.   “Despite these changes, America remains a predominantly Christian nation, and with 94% of those who identify with a religion saying [More]

My wife and I had an amazing angel encounter when we were in our 20s. We had traveled to Seattle in order to attend Christian Faith Center with Pastor Casey Treat. On the way back from church, we decided to drive up Mount St. Helens to see the destruction from the volcanic eruption of 1980. We drove probably three hours up to the lookout point that overlooks into the crater of the mountain.   As we hiked up to the highest viewing point, I noticed a man who had several cameras. He got my attention, because I wanted to get [More]

“For more great teaching on faith, prayer and healing click here.” Admin When we understand how faith comes, acting on our faith and receiving from God becomes simple. God made faith easy to understand—the answers are all in the Word! But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. —Hebrews 11:6   Notice particularly the first part of that verse, “But without faith it is impossible to please him. . . .”   If God demands that [More]

“For more great teaching on faith, prayer and healing click here.” Admin Faith—Bible faith—is based on the Word of God. It comes by hearing the Word of God. Romans 10:17 says, “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” If you get out beyond the Word of God, you have no basis for faith—and you will get into trouble. It seems to me people ought to have a little sense. In other words, I do not understand how some people can go around spouting off things, endeavoring to believe and calling it faith when it [More]

“Mike” and “Rose” serve the Lord in Mexico, where they planted a secret church in a tribal village hostile to evangelical work. They’d been warned that gospel work in that village was dangerous, but God’s call was clear. Several villagers came to Christ, and they began a secret Bible study. But the Good News didn’t stay secret for long, and when village leaders learned of the secret Christian meetings Mike and Rose were evicted from their home and kicked out of the village. More than four years of laying foundations and planting seeds…seemingly eliminated in eight days. “God!” they asked. [More]

Many American children are looking forward to the arrival of Santa Claus on Christmas Eve, bearing presents for good little boys and girls. But most of those celebrating don’t know that there is a real man behind the story of Santa Claus, and that real man was a Christian persecuted because of his faith and actions.
