The Growing Footprint of Evil
We are facing a world which is growing in its abject hatred of Christians. We must rely on God’s grace, strength, and love to help us stand against it. There are too many people who need salvation and if authentic Christians shrink from spreading the gospel, who will do it?
Islam: the Religion of Peace Strikes Again
It was recently reported that an American who was studying Arabic and teaching English in Yemen was brutally gunned down by Al Qaeda. Why? “It was God’s gift for the mujahedeen to kill the American Joel Shrum who was actively proselytizing under the cover of teaching in Taiz.” [1]
Between this and the terrorist of Toulouse France who gunned down four Jewish individuals as a statement for his religion, we see that in spite of what liberals and moderate Muslims would have us believe, Islam is far from a being a religion of peace. In fact, it appears to be marked as a death cult than anything else.
ABC Owes Christian Women Apology for “GCB”
There’s been a lot of talk about apologies in the news of late. What can and cannot be said of women in today’s society.
Well, let me enter in a new request – that ABC television network apologize to every Christian woman in the country.
Chrislam
My latest book “Chrislam” is now available through http://www.studygrowknow.com via purchase or as a free PDF download.
Atheist Blamed for Being Attacked
You know, it never ceases to amaze me how the judicial system works. In a recent case, a Pennsylvanian director of American Atheist had dressed up as Zombie Muhammad in a Halloween parade. During the parade, he was accosted by a Muslim who proceeded to try to yank off his fake beard, then choked him.
What’s Happening in Israel
We know there are some interesting and potentially volatile events taking place in the Middle East. Much of that deals directly or indirectly with Israel. The following news is reported by a person who – along with her husband – are missionaries to the people of Israel. She indicates from firsthand knowledge what it actually occurring.
Pastor Yousef, the Qur’an, and the Enemies of Freedom
Pastor Yousef Nardarkhani sits in a jail in Iran awaiting his death penalty to be carried out. His crime? He is a Christian. The Iranian government believes that Yousef was once Muslim (though he denies it) and became a Christian. The penalty for leaving Islam (to become anything, including an agnostic or atheist) is death.
So, here we sit, waiting to see what happens. Nothing from the White House, though they were quick to condemn the military for burning the Qur’ans. Interestingly enough, it now appears as though the prisoners were using their Qur’ans to post notes to other prisoners. Islamic law maintains that if someone writes in a Qur’an, then it should be burned.
Is Putin Gog of Ezekiel 38-39?
Joel Rosenberg asks just that question in a recent article he wrote on the happenings in the Middle East. The reason is due to the fact that Vladimir Putin – who is set to quite possibly become Russia’s president again – has stated that Israel had better not attack Iran.
The Difficult Part of Prayer
The difficult part of prayer is in the not knowing. Anyone will tell you that. We know that we need to have faith. We know that we need to see through the darkness of not knowing, to faith believing that God will answer according to His will. We also know there is so much that we are unable to discern about prayer.
The Bible tells us much and if not studied thoroughly, we could end up with the wrong impression about prayer. By taking verses out of context, it is easy to arrive to a conclusion that says God will heal sickness every time. We can erroneously believe that God wants to bless me materially in this life. There are many conclusions we can draw about prayer that are far from its reality.

Divisive
I’m incredulous. I’m appalled. I am not surprised though.
Here is a video of Mr. Obama speaking directly to Black Americans.
I can only say that if it was a white president trying to gather the (white) troops to keep that president in office for a second term, the ACLU, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Ed Schultz and a host of other individuals known for their dramatic flare when it comes to charges of racism, would be up in arms.
