If you love the Lord, compromising to the culture is not an option

Things were going wrong in his personal life. He was immersed in a society that valued everything that he stood against. He was pressured to bow down and worship things that he knew were wrong. There was constant temptation to succumb to the worldliness around him.

Sound familiar? No, I’m not talking about the world in which we live today, but rather a young man from the Old Testament who was captured and taken into captivity in Babylon. I’m talking about Daniel.

Brain talk

There is a huge difference between computers and the human brain. While the computer transmits information using electricity, the brain communicates its information using powerful chemicals. Let’s say that you accidentally touch a hot pan on the stove. In less than two tenths of a second, millions of reactions take place while your brain performs a huge number of operations.

Crossing God’s red line: unless America turns back to God, we will stay on the precipice

By Tim Moore, Harbinger’s Daily – October 20, 2024 The truth is that although we like to claim that ours is a Christian nation, that is no longer demonstrably true. An argument can be made that we were founded upon Christian principles and once aspired to Christian ideals (albeit imperfectly throughout our national history). But that is no longer the case. When our president makes the unfettered slaughter of unborn children a central theme of his administration, undermines God’s natural […]

One such example is the colugo, an animal that scientists tried to place in three different families before they finally gave up and designated a whole new family just for that one strange creature. Scientists agree that the colugo is a mammal. But beyond that, they’re stumped. For a while they had classified the colugo as a bat because it […]

If you’re an idolater, you should be scared—right now

By Robb Brunansky, for The Christian Post God sometimes destroys idolatry by the grace found in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. God delights in the salvation of idolaters who cease their idolatry and worship Him alone. Sadly, however, not everyone repents, which leads to the second way God destroys idolatry — through divine judgment on idolaters. The concept of divine judgment is familiar, even if it is uncomfortable. We generally understand what the outcome of divine judgment is for those […]
