This is How We Will Stand And Fight For You

THE WAR against Human Trafficking will not be won until we all band together to create awareness and attack the organized infrastructure that makes up this network of slavery, prostitution and exploitation. No longer can we stick our heads in the sand and believe in our hearts that this is not taking place in “my town” or “my neighborhood”. The longer that we turn a blind eye and take a stance that “someone else will deal with the problem”, or continue to naively believe that we as individuals can’t make a difference, the longer that these innocent victims will have […]

Walking the Walk

As a Christian, I have found that “talking the talk” requires a skill set of learning God’s Word and hearing the instructions of the Holy Spirit. On the other hand, I have also found that “walking the walk” is a completely separate entity and will take a lifetime of learning. Only Jesus could truly “walk the walk” because He was sinless; we, however, will never be. God knows that we have a lot to learn, and thankfully, He is willing and able to teach us, if only we will listen. Learning boils down to one thing: “Are we teachable?” Being […]

Expect a Miracle

Have you ever noticed that when you are witnessing to some unbelievers and the subject of miracles from the Bible comes up, some people will try to justify the miracle by natural means? I always tell these people that Spiritual laws operate differently than the Laws of Physics. I tell them that most people claim that “seeing is believing”, but in the Spirit realm of God “believing is seeing”. I just recently saw a cartoon in which one person, an unbeliever, is telling a Christian that the Red Sea was drying up and the water was very shallow and that […]

Through the Eyes of a Rescuer

A large amount of time was spent researching for this month’s issue theme of Human Trafficking. There was a plethora of information that I wasn’t aware of and I had many questions while sorting through it all. I was curious about the perspective of those who fight trafficking – and so I contacted both a law enforcement officer and a rescue organization founder. I was also interested in knowing how big of a role certain websites played, such as Craigslist and Backpage. And so, I set off for some answers. I spent time speaking with Fort Lauderdale Special Victims Unit […]

Age of the Apocalypse?

With all of the things that are happening in our world today, many people are talking about the coming apocalypse. It is interesting to note that the word “apocalypse” means “lifting the veil” in the Greek language.  God is surely telling us something by all these current events – so, what does our Bible have to say about it? Studying the Book of the Revelation of Saint John is a profound endeavor. There is so much symbolism to try to understand and everyone seems to have different explanations. But, when we study the other prophets and the Olivet Discourse, (Matthew […]

JUDGEMENT DAY – Accurate Prediction or False Teaching?

Judgment Day is quickly approaching. In fact, it will be taking place on May 21, 2011. And the end of the world? That is scheduled to happen on October 21, 2011. Well, these are the predictions of Christ’s return according to Christian broadcaster, Harold Camping, and separate Bible-based Life, www.ebiblefellowship.com. Camping has received these two very important dates through what he believes is a Biblical calendar that has been hidden according to the Books of Daniel and Revelation. Camping proclaims that he has been able to accurately predict these dates through the use of the mathematical application combined with the […]

The Search For God

Amazingly, they’ve figured out all of the mysteries of the universe on their own! The fact that we can’t accurately predict the weather on most days is apparently irrelevant. They trust their wisdom and understanding above God. There are messages about these types of people all throughout the Bible. 1 Corinthians 1:19 says, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise and discard the intelligence of the intelligent.” Proverbs 8:13 tells us that God hates arrogance and pride. Some philosophy’s and movements today have people believing that the only person they need to rely on and worry about is “themselves”. […]
