2/24/24 Grace Through Faith Alone, pt 2 1873
What makes Christianity different from other religions? The most crucial issue is where you will spend eternity. Mike Gendron, a devout Catholic for 35 years, had a crisis of faith between believing Catholic teachings or the Bible. Was salvation based on faith alone or on faith plus being baptized, believing the Eucharist is Christ’s body, believing in Mary as a perpetual virgin and the infallibility doctrine. When Jesus was dying on the cross He said, “It is finished!” What was finished? Why did Jesus have to die on the cross? Pastor John MacArthur says by praying to and exalting Mary, Christ is robbed of His Glory.

2/17/24 The Pope vs The Commandments, pt 1 1872
What happens to culture when the Church blesses degeneracy? A new decree issued by Pope Francis has changed the official Catholic doctrine of 2000 years from homosexuality being a sin to now being blessed as same sex unions. Jonathan Cahn, author of The Return of the Gods, says this is not just a demonic attack on churches, but end-times apostasy. In fact, the Pope, head of 1.3 billion Catholics, warned that being too rigid on absolutes can be contrary to nature. That each person should search their own consciences for commandments. This decree will have a profound impact on morality throughout the world.

02/10/2024 Controversy of Evolution

2/10/24 The Controversy of Evolution 1871
Is Intelligent Design religious? Is evolution scientific, or is it a religious belief based on faith? Are millions of scientists who believe in evolution wrong? Evolution has been enshrined in our educational system with laws to protect it. Scientists in the 1800’s believed that life could spontaneously come from non-life. What Darwin believed, Pasteur disproved. Dr Carl Warner, author of Evolution-the Grand Experiment, believed in evolution until a friend asked him questions that changed his worldview. Why would birds evolve half a wing or animals that evolve half a leg evolve into intermediates that are incapable of life?

2/3/24 Hope in God 1870
If you say your circumstances are hopeless, you’re slamming the door on God. Fear and discouragement are from the enemy, but faith and hope come from God. Terry Law, author of The Hope Habit, Finding God’s Goodness When Life is Hard, says having hope as a habit is life changing! It’s not simple optimism! Biblical hope has the power of God to train you to live with a hope to give you confidence in God in severe trials by freeing your mind from worry and fear that actually weakens our immune systems! Just a tiny spark of hope breaks that cycle to release endorphins that lessen pain, and promote healing and hope.

1/27/24 Explosion of Antisemitism 1869
Why are American students turning against Jewish students? Three top university presidents testified before a Congressional Committee as Congresswoman Elise Stefanic asked if calls for killing Jews violates their standards of conduct. They answered that it would be context related. But would calling for the death of Muslim students be context related? Of course not. This double standard dehumanizes Jewish students. Kayleigh McEnany says 60% of students think the best way to resolve the war would be to give the land to Hamas. Amir Tsarfati says Israeli soldiers are turning away from secularism and toward God!
