Replacing God in Secular Society
Replacing God
Replacing God
What it boils down to is a hubristic notion that we have the knowledge and wisdom to organize our fellow men for a collective "good" that we define. Ancient emperors of the pagan world used to operate on this principle; the divine-right monarchs of Europe did so, as have Marxist revolutionaries, fascists, and autocratic rulers in the Islamic world.
But the modern West too has bought into this idea, hook, line, and sinker. We demonstrate our fealty to it whenever we speak in complacent accents of government, operating on some organizing principle, "creating jobs" for us, saving us from poverty and death, preventing all forms of injustice, saving the planet, or properly allocating "society's resources."

Jan Markell: Will This Ship of Fools Sink May 22?
Jan Markell: Will This Ship of Fools Sink May 22?
It appears this ship of fools will not sink on May 22, 2011. Camping will likely go back to the drawing board and come up with another sure-fire calculation and some sheep without shepherds will still follow him. But God never rewards the date-setters. If He did, He would show the Bible to be inaccurate and untrustworthy.
Jesus is coming again! But thanks to Harold Camping and friends, on May 22, more may be laughing and scoffing than anticipating. Those of us who long for His appearing can have joy amidst turmoil and expectation in spite of world chaos knowing that it will happen in His perfect timing!

Brad's Story of Overcoming Fears of God's ReJection
Testimony - Hi I am Brad Clarke.
I'd like to share with you about how I came to accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour.
Man's greatest fear - Rejection. Whether young or old. My greatest fear was being rejected by God. I want to use John 8:21-30 as my text to explain my fear before I accepted Jesus.
John 8:21 To the religious people Jesus uses tragic words of rejection, "I go away and you shall seek me and shall die in your sin. Where I'm going, you cannot come." Then again in verse 24, "I said therefore to you that you shall die in your sins, for unless you believe that I am he, (the promised one), you shall die in your sins."
Three times Jesus makes that tragic condemnation ...
You shall die in your sin. You shall die in your sins. x2
