MR. GRAHAM FINISHES STRONG

November 7, 2013

MAYBE HIS FINAL MESSAGE TO AMERICA

Anyone who has read my blog has seen the good and the bad posts about Mr. Graham.  I think Mr. Graham has finished strong with an uncompromising message of the Gospel.  “The cross is offensive…”  I couldn’t agree more Mr. Graham.  I say “well done.”

What do you think?

SUN PARADOX CHALLENGES OLD EARTH THEORY

November 6, 2013

by Tim Clarey, Ph.D. *

“Scientists previously uncovered fossil algae in Archean rocks—evidence of life in a period that evolutionists date from 3.0 to 3.5 billion years ago.1 At that supposed time, the sun would have been 70 percent less luminous compared to today, making Earth’s surface icy and uninhabitable.

But if those rocks are truly 3.0 to 3.5 billion years old, the meager solar energy delivered by the younger Sun at that time would have prevented algae or any other life form from growing.”

You may read the rest of the article HERE.

My comment:

In the end, as I’ve mentioned many times, my faith is based on the Word of God.  However, it is always nice to have evidence to show that fossil algae are not 3.5 billion years old and fit a young earth scenario well.

WRONG WORSHIP

November 1, 2013

I first saw this either on one of the blogs I visit or in a Bible study group that I’m involved in online.  Some see it as controversial. I think it’s a good example of the heart of many “Christians” that have lost their way.  This parody/satire is true in so many ways and, unfortunately, evident in the lives of many “believers.”

“SO HELP ME GOD” A NEW AIR FORCE ACADEMY?

October 28, 2013

The Air Force Academy is considering dropping the phrase “so help me God” from its oath after atheist Mickey Weinstein and his Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF) filed a complaint.

The Academy’s oath is: “We will not lie, steal or cheat nor tolerate among us anyone who does. Furthermore, I resolve to do my duty and live honorably, so help me God.”

You can read the rest of the article HERE.

My comment:

Academy Public Affairs Director Maj. Brus Vidal said that “at present, the phrase ‘so help me God’ remains as part of the oath. Vidal told the Air Force Times they could: 1) make no change 2) make the God part optional or 3) strike the entire oath.”

My brother graduated from the Air Force Academy.  He is a Christian who worked hard to get into the academy.  It took him an extra year of diligent study after high school to get accepted. My family had no special political connections.  My brother had to earn his recommendations with his own efforts. The neighborhood knew that my brother was preparing for something as he woke early in the morning, put on his heavy army boots, and ran through the streets of West Covina, California. I always admired his ability to run the endurance races (cross-country).  I think the fastest I ever ran a mile took 7 minutes.

When one individual can file an email complaint about this subject and have Academy Superintendent Lt. Gen. Michelle Johnson respond to it in just over an hour, there is a major problem.   According to the article, The Superintendent told “Weinstein immediately (that she) had a poster that contained the oath removed from a prep school wall (at his request) and that the Academy would consider removing ‘so help me God’ from its oath.”

At this time of year, I should be putting up something about the scary nature of our world as Halloween approaches.  I submit that this article is evidence that another frightening event seems to be occurring at one of the greatest military training institutions in this country.  What could be more scary than that?

THE THRONE OF DAVID

By Henry Morris Ph.D.

“And thine house and thy kingdom shall be established for ever before thee: thy throne shall be established for ever.” (2 Samuel 7:16)

No other ordinary human being, not even the greatest of men, was ever given a promise like this promise to David. It can be understood, however, when one realizes that David is a type of Christ and that, in terms of His human genealogy, Christ did indeed inherit the right to David’s throne. As the angel Gabriel told Mary: “The Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever” (Luke 1:32-33). The coming Messiah is identified as this promised Son of David in the Old Testament prophecies (e.g., Isaiah 9:6-7).

HOPE

October 8, 2013

“There are many persons to be found who are bowed down with despondency of spirit, and cannot lift up themselves to enjoy a comfortable hope.  Let such take heart from the case before us; and let them also remember that the Lord does not now forget the sorrowful and broken-hearted.  We see this expressly stated in:”

Isaiah 49

 13 Shout for joy, O heavens! And rejoice, O earth!
Break forth into joyful shouting, O mountains!
For the Lord has comforted His people
And will have compassion on His afflicted.

Promise to Zion

14 But Zion said, “The Lord has forsaken me,
And the Lord has forgotten me.”
15 “Can a woman forget her nursing child
And have no compassion on the son of her womb?
Even these may forget, but I will not forget you.
16 “Behold, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands;

PSALM 83 AND THE UPCOMING MIDDLE EAST WAR

I think Bill Salus MAY be onto something.

PSALM 83 AND THE UPCOMING MIDDLE EAST WAR

I have to admit that Prophecy in the News has some strange speakers at their prophecy conferences.  However, I’ve never seen Gary set a date and many of his guests contribute some thought-provoking ideas.

BRILLIANT BUTTERFLY FEATURE CHALLENGES DARWINIAN SELECTION

September 23, 2013

By Brian Thomas, M.S.

How do butterfly’s wings shine? Like almost all other butterflies, the Morpho has wings covered with scales. Typically, pigmentation patterns across these scales generate wing colors, but a Morpho‘s scales deploy an additional feature.

On top of their scales, Morpho butterflies have countless tiny, tree-like structures with suspended branched arms that manipulate light waves. Spacing among the branches helps match targeted light-wavelengths, like blue for example. Repeated reflections of the same wavelength cause interference effects that, when viewed from certain angles, generate stunning iridescence.
