2nd Commandment: "Catholicism" VS. The "Bibe"

2011-03-10T03:10:00.000-08:00

The Roman Catholic "Ten" Commandments are actually only nine. They deleted the Second Commandment--the one that says not to create an image and bow down to it, and then they split the Tenth, hoping that no one would notice. If you don't believe me, study the Vatican website for yourself:

http://www.vatican.va/archive/ccc_css/archive/catechism/command.htm

Exodus 20:2-17 and Deuteronomy 5:7-21 are the same Ten Commandments.There is nothing anti-Catholic. It is not Catholic-bashing. It is just the facts as they stand.

Ray Comfort - Witnessing Clip - One on Two

The responsibility of delivering the life-saving Gospel to the lost has been committed to all believers. That’s right, ALL believers, not just ordained ministers, evangelists, or missionaries. In fact, the Apostle Paul said that the ministry of reconciling people to God has been given to all those who have been born-again, whose old life has passed away, and all things have become new. “...if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation” (2 Cor. 5:17-18). Christians must understand that this is a very serious responsibility. It is a matter of life or death! The consequences of what we do may determine the eternal destiny of our friends, family, or acquaintances. There are individuals who may spend eternity in Heaven with Christ because we told them about Jesus Christ. And even more sobering, there may be those who suffer eternal torment in the lake of fire FOREVER, simply because we couldn’t find the time or were too “embarrassed” to talk about Jesus!

Sorry, Mr. President: Socialism's not in the Bible

2010-05-22T22:58:00.001-07:00

okay.. I'm not big into politics.. (and there are no sketches in this post *sorry*) but I stumbled upon this article... and I loved the way John Aman worded this. I'd have to certainly agree with him.source:http://www.onenewsnow.com/Perspectives/Default.aspx?id=1021886#
John Aman (Coral Ridge Ministries)Having placed 50 percent of America's economy under government control, the Obama administration is now angling for a tighter grip on the financial sector.

The operative word is "fairness," which is shorthand for Obama's famous campaign promise to "spread the wealth around."

When critics said that this remark to "Joe the Plumber" displayed Obama's socialist leanings, Obama justified it by citing Scripture:

"My Bible tells me there is nothing wrong with helping other people," said then-Sen. Obama. "That we want to treat others like we want to be treated. That I am my brother's keeper, and I am my sister's keeper. I believe that."

But Obama, who once dismissed the Bible's relevance to politics, saying, "People haven't been reading their Bibles lately," may need to go reread his Engels. Co-author with Karl Marx of The Communist Manifesto, Friedrich Engels knew better than Obama about collectivism's clash with Christianity, stating, "...if some few passages of the Bible may be favourable to Communism, the general spirit of its doctrines is, nevertheless, totally opposed to it ...."

Despite Engels and Marx (who dismissed religion as the "opium of the people"), Obama and many others still manage to see socialism in the Bible. They point to the early church which, at first glance, seems like a model socialist community. The New Testament reports that these first believers "had all things in common" (Acts 4:32) and "all who were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of the things that were sold, and laid them at the apostles' feet; and they distributed to each as anyone had need" (Acts 4:34-35).

But unlike socialism, the sharing was voluntary, not coerced, and the money was given not to the state, but the church. As Southern Baptist leader Richard Land puts it on the new Coral Ridge Ministries documentary, Socialism: A Clear and Present Danger, "It's one thing for you to give out of compassion to someone who's less fortunate. It's an entirely different thing for the government to confiscate your property and give it to someone else." (Part 2 of the documentary airs Sunday, May 23, nationwide on The Coral Ridge Hour.)

While the Bible asserts property rights and the rights of inheritance, socialism assaults them. Marx and Engels put the "abolition of property" first in a ten-step program for implementing communism. That's not exactly a Christian thing to do. The eighth commandment, "You shall not steal" (Exodus 20:15) applies every bit as much to the men and women who hold the reins of political power as it does to everyone else.

So does the 10th commandment, "You shall not covet" (Exodus 20:17). Coveting, or envy, is a powerful driver of socialism, which is in a perpetual snit that some people have more than others. So when President Obama castigates "Fats Cats" on Wall Street, decries "economic inequality," and warns, as he did in his 2009 budget statement that a "disproportionate share of the nation's wealth has been accumulated by the very wealthy," he stokes a destructive impulse that is condemned by Scripture.

Socialism also runs afoul of the first commandment, "You shall have no other gods before Me" (Exodus 20:3). Socialist governments seek to play God — to take His place as the ultimate sovereign. Consider the veneration that Russians once gave to the embalmed remains of Lenin and Stalin, the Nazi-prescribed prayer to Hitler ("Thy Reich [kingdom] comes, thy will alone is law upon the earth"), and the personality cult surrounding North Korea's "Dear Leader," Kim Jong-il.

The sixth commandment, "You shall not murder," is also widely ignored by Marxist regimes. Marx and Engels proclaimed that their aims could be "attained only by the forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions." Their disciples, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, and other communist henchmen, killed 100-million people, a "tragedy of planetary dimensions," as the French publisher of The Black Book of Communism put it.

Barack Obama may say that the Bible tells him to be his brother's keeper (his youngest half-brother reportedly lived in a shack in Kenya on $1 a day at the time he said this), but he ought to go back and reread what God's Word actually says. Engels was right. Socialism has nothing in common with Scripture.

Atheism: The Intellectual Embarassment

2009-08-16T16:55:00.000-07:00

http://www.pulltheplugonatheism.com

atheism: the intellectual
embarrassment

“Just because a few atheists believe that everything came from nothing doesn't mean that all atheists believe that.” Robert Madewell

It’s not a matter of not believing it. It’s a matter of definition. If you say of your Ford Expedition that you have no belief that there was a maker, then you think that nothing made it. It just happened. You have defined yourself as having that mentality.

So if you call yourself an atheist, you are saying that you have no belief in a God—a Creator. Creation just happened. Everything you see—all the different breeds of dog (both male and female), all the different breeds of cat (both male and female), all the different fish in the ocean (both male and female), giraffes, elephants, cattle, sheep, horses, birds, flowers, trees, the sun, the moon, the stars, the four seasons, night and day, the marvels of the human body—the eye with its 137,000,000 light sensitive cells (we have been made well Robert) . . . all these marvels of creation were made by nothing. They all just happened. That’s atheism at its core. What an intellectual embarrassment.

Then the professing atheist has the unbelievable gall to consider himself intelligent, and he thinks that science backs up his delusion. Think of the ludicrous language an atheist is forced to use. He can’t say that creation was “created” and he has to avoid saying that everything has been “made.” He will even say that he has no beliefs . . . that he is “without belief.” His problem is that he hasn’t thought his beliefs through. If he has any intellectual self-respect he will move from the “nothing created everything” belief, to the “something did it but I just don’t know what it was.” And is doing so he distances himself from the embarrassing label of “atheist.”

Nothing Comes from Nothing!

2009-06-26T23:44:00.000-07:00

Do you see any artwork below?
Me neither. That's cause I didn't sketch anything. Nobody did it.. therefore it doesn't exist.

Same goes for us. But.. difference is.. we exist! : )

Who made the cow that made the milk?
Who made the bee that made the honey?
Who made the matter, space & time that made us?
Who made the gases?

Obviously someone with more power who can exist outside of those things made us.
Someone with God-like attributes, God. : )

LISTEN TO THIS INCREDIBLE SONG below! (especially the nothing comes from nothing part... lol.)

I love this song from the Sound of Music movie. Julie Andrews was incredible! It's probably one of my
favorite movies ever! : )

For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, but lose his soul?

2009-06-25T17:27:00.000-07:00

Today 150,000 people died,
including two very well-known celebrities.
May this remind us that we all have an appointment to keep.

May it also help us to forget that which doesn't matter,
and get right with God while we still have time.

A friend of a friend wrote this: "Life is truly a vapor. I was just last night making a short list of celebrities that died in 2009 after the death of Ed McMahon. May we all consider our eternity and whether we have peace with God. Ricardo Montalban(Jan 14), Paul Harvey(Feb 28), Natasha Richardson(Mar 18), Bea Arthur(Apr 25), Dom Deluise(May 4), David Carradine(Jun 3), Ed McMahon(Jun23), Farrah Fawcett(Jun 25), Michael Jackson(Jun 25)"

"For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world,
and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange
for his soul?"
(Matthew 16:26)
:0(

"for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,"
(Romans 3:23)

"But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death."
(Revelation 21:8)

Who Made God?

2009-04-27T17:26:00.000-07:00

Everything is made from something or someone more intelligent then itself.
The fact of the existence of the Creator is axiomatic (self-evident).

That’s why the Bible says,

"The fool has said in his heart, ‘There is no God’"
(Psalm 14:1).

The professing atheist will deny the common sense given to him by God, and will try & defend his belief by thinking that the question "Who made God?" can’t be answered. He believes, this gives him license to deny the existence of God.

The question of who made God can be answered
by simply looking at space and asking,

"DOES SPACE HAVE AN END?"

Obviously, it doesn’t. If there is a brick wall with "THE END" written on it, the question arises,

"What is behind the brick wall?"

Strain the mind though it may, we have to believe (have faith) that space has no beginning and no end. The same applies with God. He has no beginning and no end. He is eternal.

The Bible also informs us that *time* is a dimension that God created, into which man was subjected. It even tells us that one day time will no longer exist. That will be called "eternity." God Himself dwells outside of the dimension He created (2 Timothy 1:9, Titus 1:2). He dwells in eternity and is not subject to time. God spoke history before it came into being. He can move through time as a man flips through a history book.

Because we live in the dimension of "TIME, LOGIC & REASON" demand that everything must have a beginning and an end. We can understand the concept of God’s eternal nature the same way we understand the concept of space having no beginning and end—by faith. We simply have to believe they are so, even though such thoughts put a strain on our distinctly insufficient brains.To one who examines what is before Him, there can be no doubt that God exists.

"Before the mountains were brought forth,
or ever you had formed the earth & the world,
even from everlasting to everlasting,
you are God.
You turn mand to destruction;
and say, return, you children of men.
For a thousand years in your sight are but
as yesterday when it is past,
and as watch in the night."
(Psalm 90:1-4)

Why Does God Allow Evil?

2009-04-27T17:13:00.000-07:00

Everyone asks this question. And I mean everyone!
"Why does God allow evil men & women to live?"

Well, should He instead kill them before they do evil deeds?
Should He judge murderers and rapists now?

Wait a second... let's not stop there...
God is perfect & good, therefore, NO EVIL will go unpunished!
Think about a good judge. He won't let the criminals get away
will he? Not if he's a good judge he wont. Well, God is the
same.. except His standards are much higher!

what about...
THEIVES,
LIARS,
ADULTERERS,
FORNICATORS,
THOSE WHO LUST,
& THOSE WHO HATE?

If God judged evil today,
all unconverted men and women
would perish & go to hell.

Thank God that He is patiently
waiting for them to turn to
Jesus so they can be saved from
His terrible wrath.

So, no need to worry about if God
is going to punish all law-breakers..
In the end...
Justice Will Be Served!

Keep this in mind...
If I stepped on an ant... nothing would happen.
If I killed a bum... I'd get time.
If I assasinated the president.. I'd get life!

Do you see what changed here? Not the sin committed.
But THE AUTHORITY of whom I committed the sin against!

In the same way. God is eternal, holy, righteous and perfect...
His standard is much higher and therfore the punishment in
sinning against Him is ETERNAL! AND much more painful then
anything you could ever imagine.

Thank God we had Jesus pay the fine for what we deserved.
The question is...
Will we 'humble' ourselves & realize we have sinned majorly against Him...
REPENT & TRUST in Him to save us before we have our day of judgement before
God. Who will take the blame? Are you going to let Jesus..?

Or are you gonna take it into your own hands and allow justice for your life to be served in hell for eternity useing your own contaminated life of sin? Jesus is the only one who can satisfy judgement for your sin cause He was perfect. Make your choice before it's too late.

*HUGGS & LOVE to you all!*
