"The Role of God in Natural Disasters"The providence of God not only works in the selection of governmental leaders, including the worst of ones such as Nebuchadnezzar, but also in the happenings of nature. What happens is never the fault of "Mother Nature" but an event in the plan of Father God. This includes such tragedies as Hurricane Katrina, the tsunami on the west coast of Indonesia and most recently the cyclone to hit in Myanmar. There is nothing that happens by chance, even the outcome of the roll of the dice. Everything, every event is under the control of God. We cannot understand God's infinite purposes with our finite minds. He alone is all-knowing, all-powerful with a perfect plan to accomplish His purposes. We do have a human responsibility and accountability, while living under His sovereign will and authority God. We should be moved with compassion when tragedies take place but we must have a proper perspective about tragedies. The God who created everything continues to be active in His Creation. He sustains it, directs it, and controls it. The Father and the Son are involved in the Creation. The Deist position that the Creation goes on by the working of natural laws without Christ's involvement is NOT biblical. Jim Lincoln, Very good Link! |

Kingdom Citizen wrote: Jim, I know the U.S. presidency is the office of Antichrist, but are you implying that Obama is Caesar? Please don't ever ask Jim Lincoln to ever "think" because he is liable to hurt himself. All he know is hooking on to "links" that he probably has never read. This gives him a feeling of godliness, but he denies the power therein with all the drivel he links every day! |

Jessica Dawson wrote: "what have I to do with judging those also who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside? But those who are outside God judges." 1 Corinthians 5:11-13 But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner—not even to eat with such a person. For what have I to do with judging those also who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside? But those who are outside God judges. Therefore “put away from yourselves the evil person.” Jessica Dawson, Here is 1 Cor 5:11-13 from the KJV for you to "judge". Which translation has more authority? "But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or coveteous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner, with such an one no not to eat. For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within? But them that are without God judgeth. therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person." Tiger Woods does not realize that the first step to Heaven is that he is lost. And the Highway to Glory is by the way of the Cross! |

1Cor 3:18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. 1Cor 3:19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. It seems odd to me that God hasn't taken this fool out of the world, but that is why He said my ways aren't your ways and my thoughts aren't your thoughts! And if I examined my own life closer, I'm sure there are many who have thought this same thing about me! So Jesus. thank you this morning for saving me from what I deserve for my sins which is hell by taking my place on the cross and shedding your blood for my sins. Please help me to live my life each day ever mindful of your grace and your mercy, Jesus, that I might glorify you and God the Father. Amen |

It is now for MEN who have served in the Armed Forces of the USA. (It was going to be for the homeless, but after much prayer having ALL veterans is more plausible.) Right now, we have just hired a female sec/tres to help with getting this project get off the ground. Her father is a vet. She is 21 yrs old who called on Jesus Christ to be her personal Saviour on Feb. 1st. (She had read my tracts but wanted to let the Pastor show her how in church Now she wants me to mentor her every day! Unfortunately, this woman is living with her family that are doing drugs and has allowed them to overwhelm her back into some kind of addition. She needs our prayers because she has taken advantage of me and stopped coming to bible study. Her whole family is ruined and have five adults and three cildren crammed into a two br apt. It is also my fault for showering her and her sick family with gifts which were taken as rewards for their sinful practices. Very discouraging and sad |

John UK wrote: Too true, Ernie And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it. Mark 8:34-35 KJV We need to get back to this Christian mentality, instead of the lackadaisical approach being recommended from most pulpits. Amen and Amen, Brother UK John!

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever, shall lose his life for my sake, and the gospel's,the same shall save it. For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Mark 8:35,36 (KJV) Jesus has said this three times about those who ae trying to save themselves will lose their life |

Mike wrote: "What a difference a year can make. Last January, newly inaugurated President Obama stood outside the U.S. Capitol and pledged to “begin again the work of remaking America.”" How's that remake going? (not that remaking America is the president's job) "He pitched the idea of a new bipartisan panel to investigate ways to slow down the annual deficit, which, forecasted at nearly $1.4 trillion this year, has rocketed to its highest levels since World War II." “It begins with our economy,” Obama said. “That is why jobs must be our number one focus in 2010.” "The president also proposed a three-year freeze on domestic spending programs." "Lastly, Obama took on all of Washington for its partisan pettiness: “What frustrates the American people is a Washington where every day is Election Day. Rather than fight the same tired battles that have dominated Washington for decades, it’s time for something new. Let’s try common sense.” Is there such a thing as pathological comedy? You know, telling funny stories which are lie-based? Mike, Your summary question would be VERY FUNNY if it weren't true! Sadly, the USA is quickly turning into an OBAMA-NATION! And what is even worse, the people don't care! |

I just voted for "All of the Above" because I didn't want to leave out "Contempary" as many of the IFB Churches are using them and some are quite well written. The IFBC are also using "Patch the Pirate" songs for the children, and there is NO WAY you can exalt a pirate!!! (Next thing they will be singing "Carlos, the Drug Dealer" songs, because they have a good message! (No offense made to anybody named Carlos, Since most of drugs coming in are from south of the border) My "Hedges and Highway Minstry" will include Contempory Music because I have also written some songs that could be classified as such. Only one of the Christian Churches I asked would play them, and a Mormon church just played the music without the words. After the service, they asked me to become a member again. I said, "No thanks, I've been there and done that"! I said what Gal 1:8 says from their KJV Bible. I said, "There is no angel moroni in the Bible. And Paul said let them be accursed or damned to those preaching a different gospel! And besides,there were NO witnesses to the golden tablets. The burning in your bosum is only indigestion! NOTHING that Joseph Smith said has every come true. The Mormon church is a non-prophet organiztion! |

Con'tKevin Smith of the Nassau County Police told the AP the whole thing was pretty cut and dry from a public safety perperspective. "We asked for his help in getting the crowd to go away by a Twitter message. By not cooperating with us, we feel he put public lives in danger, and the public at risk," Smith told reporters. Strangely, a tweet was sent from Justin Bieber's Twitter account around the time of the arrest of Mr. Roppo. "They* are not allowing me to come into the mall," Bieber tweeted, "If you don't leave, I and my fans will be arrested, as the police jus told us." There we no other arrests made besides Mr. Roppo. Just remember, you heard it in American Police Beat first--the first arrest ever for "Failure to Tweet." If this article is really true, then we should be joyful in our trials and tribulations no matter what they are. |
