“If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.” Apparently this was said by Adolf Hitler, who employed propaganda to promote his agenda. Or was it Joseph Stalin, who slaughtered millions of innocents, but was called "Uncle Joe" by naive Western politicians? It does not matter. It is probably the underlying principle of American politicians right now, and has been for the past eight years. This principle has been adopted by politicians ans demagogues for ages, and today we are being bombarded by lies disguised as truth, particularly through fake news and propaganda. The sad fact is that millions are believing the lies coming from the top, and repeating them, or allowing them to influence their lives. One of the biggest lies is to promote evil as good, and to promote false doctrine as truth. That is why it is imperative that Christians invest time and effort in getting a firm grasp on Gospel Truth and Bible Truth. The Fall of Man began with lies, and Satan and his evil angels continue to use deception as their primary weapon against human beings. It is only in the Holy Bible that you will find God's truth, and ultimately that Jesus Himself in the Way, the Truth, and the Life. We cannot approach God unless it is through the Lord Jesus Christ, His blood, and His righteousness. And we cannot know the truth unless the Holy Spirit reveals it to us. However, once we are saved, God expects us to dedicate ourselves to the Truth, no matter what the cost. All the Old Testament prophets, John the Baptizer, Stephen the first martyr, and all the apostles paid dearly for the truth by losing their lives. Today there are Christians all around the world who are being butchered and tortured for the Truth. So every believer needs to know that the Truth is hated, while men love lies, and that standing for the Truth has a price.

We should avoid the "victim" concept of sin and evil, lies and deception. This theory has taken hold on the Western societies, that all evildoers are simply victims of their circumstances. Christ give us clarity on this (John 3:19): And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

(Worthy News) - The US House of Representatives passed a scathing rebuke Thursday night to a United Nations Security Council resolution the Obama administration allowed through last month that condemned Israeli settlements as illegal. House Resolution 11 declared the UN motion a “one-sided” effort that is an obstacle to peace, placing disproportionate blame on Israel for the continuation of the conflict and discouraging Palestinians from engaging in direct, bilateral negotiations. Passed by a vote of 342-80, the measure puts the lower chamber of Congress firmly against President Barack Obama’s decision to withhold the US veto power from shielding Israel against the censure.

Thank you for that. +1

In a hymnal at church there is a song called"The Day Of Wrath" and it's stated in a way of clear biblical conviction that any escatological theology could agree upon. The CRI article seems to be written in that manner by first stating some future revival of some sort is debatable because , "people debate it" BUT the next paragraph is in the spirit of the song "The Day Of Wrath". And not debatable and in the spirit of one of the main purposes or uses of prophecy which is preached or spoken to convict and bring to repentance sinners just as Peter on the day of Pentecost preached from Joel. That by the way kicked off what would be considered a revival of sorts today. Theological perspectives are debatable especially how future events pan out and I believe they(CRI) were acknowledging that, but they clearly made a strong and non debatable statement that our King is coming, and that is central.

He's been doing more than sitting on his hands. He has been lighting fuses and lobbing grenades left, right, and center, in a desperate attempt to leave behind a destructive legacy. What should happen now with the UN is (1) total defunding, followed by (2) withdrawal, followed by (3) removal from NY.

This is correct, and that is the way Daniel describes these kings and kingdoms. Also, the Antichrist must be a renegade Jew to try and pretend to be the Christ (Jewish Messiah), and then to enter into the heart of the Jerusalem Temple.

Have you ever made "Snow Cream" with that white stuff that comes out of the sky? Ingredients 4 cups fresh snow 1 cup cream or milk ¾ cup sugar 1 tsp vanilla extract Instructions Place snow into a large bowl. Pour milk over the snow and add vanilla. Mix to combine. Serve immediately in bowls. NOTE: In place of sugar and milk, you can substitute ½ cup of sweetened condensed milk.

Airports are "gun-free" zones ... criminals or terrorists would consider them a "soft target".

Scriptures teach the Antichrist will come from Syria. The book of Daniel makes it clear that the Antichrist will come from the ten kingdoms of the Old Roman Empire, as in Dan. 7:7-8, 23-24, and from the four divisions of the Grecian Empire, which are four of the ten, as in Dan. 8:7-9, 20-23, but it also makes it clear that he will come from the Syrian division of the four divisions of Greece, as taught in Dan. 11. The king of the north of this chapter is Syria, and the king of the south is Egypt. Wars between these two divisions of Greece are pictures in Dan. 11:5-34. Verses 35-45 portray war between these same two kingdoms "at the time of the end," showing the result of the last war between them. It states that the land of Egypt shall not escape the king of the north in this last war, thus identifying Syria as being the country from which the Antichrist must come. If the king of the North was Russia, as many Bible students now teach how could Dan 11:44 be fulfilled? What countries are north of Russia that could fight against her, as required by this verse? I even had one minister argue that America is north of Russia. I had a little difficulty explaining to him that America was south of the North Pole, and not north of Russia, and Russia was also south of the North Pole.

Incorrect. Please note (Matthew 28:19): Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching all nations is another way of saying "making disciples". 1. So when a person was saved, th first lesson in their discipleship was that they were to be baptized by immersion (without delay). 2. The second lesson that they would learn immediately is that there are three Divine Persons in the Godhead -- the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. 3. The third lesson they would learn is that this does not imply three Gods, but one God, hence "name" (singular). There are also other Scripture to establish this truth, but this one should suffice. So you should really retract that statement.

It is clear in the Bible that Jesus and the Father are both God in nature. God the Father, however, is THE God. Jesus is THE God's Son. This is what Scripture teaches. Nowhere is the Holy Spirit mentioned as a personal part of the trinity. You are right, spirits are invisible. But that's all the HS is - a Spirit. The Spirit of God the Father and of Jesus Christ, God's Son. The Spirit isn't a personal being. God the Father is the One who speaks to us through God's Word (which is Jesus). Jesus is God's Word. That is the role of the Holy Spirit. It's the same reason we don't pray to the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit's job in Scripture is to point us to Jesus who then points us to the Father. You make the erronous suggestion that Jesus (the Son) is the same as God The Father, which is incorrect. So we couldn't say the same about Jesus. Jesus is God by nature because He is God's literal Son, but He is not THE God. Bob has a son. Bob's son is human, like Bob, but Bob's son is not Bob. For the rest of your post, notice how the Spirit is only mentioned as the "Spirit of God/the LORD." Are there any places that make it clear that the Spirit is separate from God the Father/Jesus Christ?

Blessings Lisha WElcome to Worthy.....I assume you would like a discussion on this Topic,then Worthy Q & A is not the place you can get that...it is an answer only Forum(I'll send you posting info to help you) Since you are here I will tell you that I'm not sure why you are assuming your daughter has been talking with Heavenly Angels etc.... These spirits must be "tried" & tested as Gods Word tells us and by Discernment(Holy Spirit) it can then be Revealed to you "what they are of"fallen or heavenly".......if your child is terrified my first guess would be these demons are just that & not "of God".......I don't know anything about you,your daughter,your Faith,your Understanding or you household & lifestyle.,.....so a cannot even know where to start rto give you an answer & I don't really even know what you want to know"wHat can we do?" Speaking or reciting "words" from the Bible is not a magic incantation,they are meaningless words if one does not have access to the Power & Authority afforded a Born Again Believer Indwelled by Holy Spirit......if the Believer is operating by His Power then Gods Word is the U;ltimate Authority,the Living Word,Sword of the Spirit....if not,well ....these entities are not going anywhere any time soon.......... What can you do,you ask.......focus on Jesus & what He did/does.always will do........ask Him to rebuke them and read the Word,get into a real personal Relationship with Him and seek Wisdom & Understanding by the Power of His Holy Spirit,if you have that,you have every weapon of warfare you will ever need....teach your daughter to come to Jesus,He is our Rock,our Refuge,Strong Tower,DEliverer,Lord & Savior......... without knowing more this is all I can really tell you at this time With love-in Christ,Kwik

If the Holy Spirit is a distinct person of the Godhead, why is it we never see him physically speak? Why is it that, when the apostles were writing their epistles, they gave glory to "One God, the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ"? They didn't give glory to the Holy spirit. Here's a question; since Jesus was begotten of the Holy Spirit, why doesn't He call the Holy Spirit His father, if the Holy Spirit is a personal being of the Godhead? There have been cases in the New Testament where the Holy Spirit has been personified, but is there any evidencefor a Triune God in the Old Testament? Usually (if not always), New Testament doctrines can be found in the Old Testament as well. I do not doubt this. But, plurality doesn't mean 3. It could mean 2, or 5, or 100. Do you have any sources?

politics Tony Abbott wants foreign aid suspended to Palestinian Authority January 2, 20178:32am FORMER prime minister Tony Abbott wants Australia to suspend aid to the Palestinian Authority because “it keeps paying pensions to terrorists and their families”. He made the call in an opinion piece published in The Spectator Magazine on Monday. Australia’s aid program to Palestine is more than $40 million a year and is provided via United Nations agencies and some charity organisations. The money goes towards projects to provide Palestinian refugees with basic services such as health, education, water and sanitation. Last year, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade suspended aid to World Vision’s work in the Palestinian Territories in the wake of allegations the charity’s head in Gaza funnelled millions of dollars to militant group Hamas. The organisation has denied the claims which are subject to court proceedings. Mr Abbott also flagged that Australia could demonstrate “unswerving support for Israel” by joining any move by the incoming Trump administration to move its embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Mr Abbott recently returned from a trip to the Middle East. He attended the Australia-Israel-UK Dialogue in Jerusalem along with Opposition Leader Bill Shorten and other federal MPs. http://www.news.com.au/national/politics/tony-abbott-wants-foreign-aid-suspended-to-palestinian-authority/news-story/eb49f2f6b26d51857fae455904719bb2

I also agree with the OP.

It is important that people are in their correct seats during takeoff...it is unfortunate that people do thing when they are under stress that hurts everyone.

It is written: "'As surely as I live,' says the Lord, 'every knee will bow before me; every tongue will acknowledge God.'" ( Jesus) Romans 14:11

Understood. But whoever claims that is rejecting what the Bible reveals regarding the Second Coming. They will all mourn and they will all repent and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.

Is the earth round, flat? I don't know and it doesn't really seem to affect me one way or the other.

Very true......

If you think this is a new thing to just the last 8 years you have not been paying attention prior to that.

You failed to include "ye shall be as gods", which was the exact opposite of what happened. So it was indeed a colossal lie.

A lot of people won't live to see tomorrow. Most of them, a big majority, are going to be raised in shame for judgment. A few will be resurrected to eternal life (clear from YHWH'S WORD)... JESUS makes the difference. Ask HIM personally, diligently, fervently. Year one ? Final week ? Remember the tower of Siloam....... Thousands every day find out too late.... Multitudes have been tricked, and 'think' they have it made.... Multitudes of others, most all the population, don't care, and never even think of turning to YHWH for help nor for salvation ..... neighbors, friends, acquaintances, family..... Pray without ceasing. Keep unstained by the world. Keep away from idols. YHWH'S PROMISES of healing and salvation and deliverance are all true. Tell others what JESUS has done for you so they might seek HIM.

Copied from another thread..... History reveals a very much dubious origin for the trinity doctrine. Forced upon the church by the Roman clergy after having been approved by a pagan emperor; formulated 300 years or more after the apostles; not taught explicitly anywhere in scripture thus an assumed doctrine; believers in other views or perspectives of the Godhead lied about and persecuted; pronounced as the foundation upon which all other doctrines of Rome are based; That to my mind is sufficient evidence to reject it utterly. There is sufficient scriptural evidence on top of the above circumstantial evidence above to at least cast serious doubt as to the veracity of the trinity doctrine as taught in most churches. 1 Corinthians 8:6 is a good place to start. Do not presume that those who reject the trinity necessarily reject the deity of Christ. Nor let others judge you or scare you into not studying. Do not be afraid of discovering truth, and do not allow the "church", creeds, or tradition to dictate what you must or must not believe. God loves someone who seeks, and is willing to learn and discover Who He really is.

No, it is not debatable. It is clearly revealed in Scripture and accompanies the Second Coming of Christ. That does not mean that Jews living today can simply coast along. Today God sees all sinners as simply sinners, and commands all men everywhere to repent.

Yeh, Baby that is cold. Here is the scoop. If you live in an apartment like i do, it is warm and nice. I go to my brothers house and it is colder there. It is not bad and they are accustomed to it, but i like the warmth of my little den. Bundle up BacKaran and keep warm.

The Devil has been trying to destroy God's people since Abraham was promised a great nation would come from him. God promised Abraham that out of him would come a great nation. God is not going to let that nation be destroyed. In Jeremiah 31:35-37 God said something very important about the nation of Israel. In this passage God tells us that one of three things must happen if the nation of Israel is to be destroyed. If none of these three things happens, then the nation of Israel will never be destroyed and will never stop being a nation. 1) The day-night cycle must be stopped (Jeremiah 31:35-36). God is saying, "If you want the nation of Israel to stop being a nation then you must find a way to stop the day from coming after the night and stop the night from coming after the day." 2) The heavens must be measured (Jeremiah 31:37). God is saying, "If you want the nation of Israel to stop being a nation then you must be able to tell Me how many stars there are in My Universe." Even if men build bigger and better telescopes, do you think they will ever be able to see all the stars in the universe? ______ 3) The foundations of the earth must be searched out (Jeremiah 31:37). God is saying, "If you want the nation of Israel to stop being a nation then you must be able to dig a hole to the center of the earth." Will man ever be able to do this? In the days of Esther, there was a proud and wicked man named Haman. Haman hated the Jewish people and wanted to destroy them. He had a plan and his plan seemed to be working out. He was able to get the King to pass a law (an unalterable decree) which said that on a certain day all of the Jews (men, women and children) in the whole kingdom would be destroyed. You can read this law in Esther 3:13. V. 13, And the letters were sent by posts into all the king's provinces, to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish, all Jews, both young and old, little children and women, in one day, even upon the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, and to take the spoil of them for a prey. The Jewish people have not had an easy road to travel on. For example, it is estimated that during the World War II, Hitler, the German leader, had about 6 million Jews put to death. This man tried to destroy the Jewish people, but today Hitler is dead and the Jewish nation is still alive!

I agree completely.

Just keep in mind that what Jesus was before he became Jesus in the flesh was not the Father

Yes, but only after public outrage that they were not initially.

For everything God Does & for what HE Allows AND for every reason there is a Purpose & Purpose in every reason......we simply do not always understand what or why that is... Perhaps it is because He is JUST and also,Our Lord does not CAUSE eternal excruciating punishment,it is a choice ,a willful decision that is the "cause"...... We will agree to disagree,not a problem here To God be the Glory! With love-in Christ,Kwik

I do Believe this myself..................... With love-in Christ,Kwik

Thats rich, what a travisty

***shakes head and decides not to comment ---- First five thoughts (can't print that here)******

it's been some time ago but I am familiar with all of those. I wish people here would read them all, it would make it easier to discuss some things.

If one delves into the depths of Nazism, you'll find a solid connection to the occult. It wasn't just Hitler, but all those around him too. It was a movement of pure evil with no redeeming qualities.

Maybe people are reading it to see why Hitler went the way he did. Maybe they will not follow..... I've studied the book in the past to get some idea of why he went the route he did and I didn't go down that road...... likewise I've studied the Islamic so called holy books and didn't go down that rabbit hole either..... but if I had bought into them being true I'd probably be your worst nightmare.

I think Hitler was deceived by Hitler....

A lot of people were deceived by Hitler.

that's kind of disturbing..... that book is so dangerous because it shows why Hitler was the way he was and it can instill that same personality in those reading it and accepting it..... we have enough anti-Semitic thoughts in the world to be publishing more. You can bet that the Protocols will follow.

Blessings Hope Welcome to Worthy,I imagine you want to talk about this? Q & A is not a discussion Forum(sent you an info PM) so you will get replies......to discuss struggles we have "Need Advice" Forum....Inner Court for CHristians & outer Court for our unbelievers,seekers & guests So,I don't know how to answer you because you cannot reply,the first question I would ask is"Are you a Christian?" When we come to the foot of the cross we should have a repentant heart in order to be WILLING to change,everyone struggles but we don't have to if we submit to Christ,,,,,we only struggle because we do not completely surrender.....many want to be SAVED & yet they hold back,hold on to the flesh and are not willing to submit to Christs being LORD of their LIFE,,,,,,this basically means when you are truly sick & tired of struggling you just LET GO & LET GOD..... With love-in Christ,Kwik

It is written, "Give to him that ask of you, and from him that would borrow of you , do not turn away." Now let me add this, "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice shame on me." We at all times should represent our Father in Heaven, sometimes when someone asks, you can give monetarily AND then also give wisdom through a parable, which lets them know their deceit is known, by God and by yourself.

i agree with that assessment.

OH matrix----- you have forgotten one very important fact~~~~ Church Tradition says that they are infallible, and Hoddie has proven time and time agAin by many incredibly astute point that Tradition is equaL AND IN MANY CASES NEGATES ACTUAL SCRIPTURE. so there is no reason to not think that the RCC can do what ever it wants~~~~~~~ lol

Exactly. Forgiveness does not require of us to present ourself a living sacrifice for someone to abuse over and over.

This debate is between Butero, who is defending the statement "God created everything, including evil, and Satan is being what God designed him to be.", while enoob57 will debate against the statement. This debate is not open to the public to respond to. The ground rules have been agreed upon, which are: Only scripture is to be used as reference material. The topic needs to remain on the subject matter only, no sidetracking. The ToS has to be followed at all times. Gentlemen, the debate is open. Please present your opening arguments. God Bless, Alan

Butero I travel to my Mom and Sister... she is 97 and my sister is 77 and I being 57 this July it is my monthly habit to see to their needs. Thank you for the organized post I will formulate the orbs and what I see as to the directive in this debate and see if you agree and post on Tuesday night! I will thank you in advance with your patience with me in this. I look forward to the exhausting of ourselves in the points of this in what I consider the foundational aspects of knowing God presented by His Word to us. Love ya brother, Steven
