Prayer Request on 2008-03-28 23:52:53 |

I will put him on my prayer list. My wife is 57 and last year had a 4.8 cm tumore removed from her brain in a 12 1/2 hour surgery. God's hand was on her and she is doing great. I will pray for healing, health, strength and a quick recovery.

The Great Danger of politically Motivated Leadersh on 2008-03-22 05:57:48 |

A good post..just a small point. Pilate was not as interested in what the Jewish leaders thought...as much as he was conserned about what would happen if this got back to Caesar or there was another rebellion. Pilate married Tiberius Caesar's half-sister and that alone kept him from surviving twice being called before Tiberius for up-risings in Judea. He was told next time he came before Caesar..he would leave in a horizonal position.

The Muslim Jesus on 2008-03-11 06:16:00 |

I have a Masters in Theology and have a numbers of friends that are of the Islamic faith. Although some mullahs may teach he was used by Allah as a prophet...it is hard for them to swallow as he is of the seed of Issac.. not Ishmel. I have never heard any that believed he was born of a virgin as that would put his conditions of his birth above Muhammad. I called a friend..from Lebanon, who married my best frinds daughter...and he confirmed the same. Any miracles they say he did are carefully selected as to not make him appear to be elevated above Muhammad. Although they DO believe that the Romans crucified Jesus... they DO NOT believe in his ressurection. They also only believe in the authority of the Bible up to the expulsion of Ishmel and Haggar out from among Abrahams family. After that they pick and choose. Muhammand took what he wanted from both Christanity in the 6th century...and from the Old Testament Tenach and Tulmud...and then added the rest.

Let Me Help You Understand on 2008-03-04 05:02:00 |

I have been a believer for 30 years now. My wife is Jewish and together, 30 years ago, we asked Jesus into our hearts and our lives were changed. I finished seminary in 1986 and continue to serve the Lord to help those in neeed...whereever that will lead. This is the first election where I will probably not vote. Either way I would have to comprimise my faith. Hillary has a history of 35 years of covering criminal activity and seeking of power. Obama wants a change...but to what? Both Hillary and Obama have no consept of the uniqueness of this experiment in liberty called America. They tried socialism when they first came to this new land...and almost all perished the first winter...so they devided up the land into tracts and each man was given ownership and told to produce and care for his family. Any extra he made through the sweat of his brow could be sold or traded for other goods. The the beginings of capitalism. Hillary and Obama are socialists by the very definition of the term. The believe in the succress of the dispensation of human government. The human government is our savior. Government is supposed to be a servant of the people. It is not there to provide for everything from the womb to the tomb. Obama has promised over 3 trillion of "free" stuff from government. Is everyone so stupid that they actually think that is free? My relatives live in Canada. Two are doctors. You want an MRI...fine wait 8 months...or go accross the border and pay for it yourself. They pay 65% of there income in taxes. Its not free. I just heard Obama in a speech saying that "gay marriage" is justified in Jesus sermon on the mount. Are you getting ill yet? Anyone that votes for Hillary...just because she is a woman...or Obama, just because he is black...truly needs to be fixed so they will no longer pollute the gene pool. If I vote I will do so my faith being my guide...not gender or race.

Sorry, born on a US Military installation....anywhere in the world is the same as being born in Springfield, Illinois. A US Military installation is the same as an embassy in a foriegn country. It is part of the United States an under US law.

McCain & Hagee on 2008-03-04 04:36:40 |

Actually, besides being in the ministry...and in Law Enforcement (what a combination), my wife is Jewish. She lost 60% of her family tree in the holocaust. The Catholic Church (the Pope) as now publically appologized for any action..or lack of action during WW2. At the same time Hagee and other theologians need to read the "encycnical Mit Brennerdes Sorge", where Pope Pius XI condemmed Naziism in 1937. The Vatican was surrounded by a country allied with Germany. They were very limited in what they could do. I have though never understood the Catholic Church love of petty dictators...Franco, Castro and others...mearly because they were anti-communist. I guess the "enemy of my enemy is my friend." They chose what they thought was the less of two evils.

The problem is they are both socialists. After the fall of the soviet union and the second world war, you would think they fifured it out by now.

Huge...difference. John Hagee, like most Christian theologians, have a difficulty with Catholic doctrine created not by the scriptures but 2000 years of tradition. It is a theological difference. Pastor Hagee has never called for the destruction of the United States or supported verbally the actions of terrorists as Farrakan has done. And it has nothing to do with race. A large portion of Pastor Hagee's congregation is black, as well as every other race and ethnic background. God says there is no distinction between each of us in the human race as we all need the grace of God found in Jesus.
