  2. Jeffrey Fall

Today, with up-to date-science, it becomes increasingly clear that the theory of evolution has become the modern-day religion of the educated—and, quite commonly, the religion of the uneducated.

In July of 2003, the Vatican approved the release of Pope John Paul's proposed Decalogue for constructing a new Europe—10 points the Catholic Church has formulated to guide the current efforts to unify Europe.

How many of us sometimes "overlook the obvious"? A case in point is the unbiblical reasoning that led the Episcopal Church in the USA to elect an openly homosexual priest as a bishop.

  2. John H. Ogwyn (1949–2005)

Did you realize that there is a "ticking time bomb" in Europe and much of the Western world?

Whatever Happened to Shame?

  1. 07th January 2005
  2. John H. Ogwyn (1949–2005)

Whatever happened to shame? There was a time when immoral conduct brought shame. It brought shame on the family and on the individual.

Prophecy vs. the Gospel?

  1. 07th January 2005
  2. Richard F. Ames

In some religious circles, professing Christians argue that preaching Bible prophecy is irrelevant, or even contrary, to preaching the Gospel message! Bible prophecy may be an interesting topic, they say, but prophecy is not significant to our salvation. Is that true? Many professing Christians believe that the gospel is only about the person of Christ, and they...

  2. John H. Ogwyn (1949–2005)

Did you know that there are those in the Canadian government that are seeking to label the Bible as "hate literature"? Not only is this up for consideration in the Canadian Parliament; there are those in the United States and in many other countries that are not far behind.
