I don't know if they ever videotape miracle conferences. However, even if they did, skeptics would just dismiss it as being staged. Maybe if there was documented medical proof that the person who got healed was sick before, so would believe. Then again, some of the more hardened skeptics would just say that it was the incredible power of the human body or the human mind to heal itself.

Jesus Himself refused to do miracles to impress skeptics.

You can always turn off the tv/dvd/video or wlk out of the movies.
I dont like to see the Lords name taken in vain either. But its what we do about it that counts.

Jesus said in Matthew 12:35-37 NKJV
"A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.

I've stoped going to church long time ago for more than one reason. I think that people are the real Church, and the "church" is becoming more and more like an organization.

Well for awhile i was considering joining the military and everything was going well until some unforeseen problems arose. Anyway, one thing i began thinking about was killing. At first it wasnt something that i even cared about, for me at least, i had no problem with it. But as time went on i started to think about it. skipping ahead. What does God say about killing during war time. its something i think about a lot and im looking for someone with a better answer than I can come up with.
I think that there is a difference between being forced to kill someone as a last resort, and to volunteer to go to war and as a result, kill.

I am a Christian, I believe God's Word to be true and I am trying to change my life in a way that pleases God ... but, apart from many sins, there is one particular sin that i am having a real hard time with and that is Lust.
Throughout my school and college years, I was forunate in the sense that I didn't fall into the same trappings that my peers did (drinking, partying, smoking, etc.), but there was one area that I've often struggled with and that is lust.
For alot of years I justified it, but now as I'm trying to rebuild my relationship with Christ, I see now that it is very selfish and very wrong - it brings me nothing but guilt, emptiness, and depression.
I need help on how to deal with this ... any advice would help me out greatly. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
I've had the same problem, and this is what I did: read the Bible, prayed, listened the Gospel music, and told my self that my love for God is stronger than anything. And that with fate in Him I can overcome anything.

Matthew 5:
10"Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11"Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.
12"Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
2 Peter 2: (referring to false prophets & false teachers)
2Many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of the truth will be maligned;
3and in their greed they will exploit you with false words; their judgment from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep.

Personally, my belief is this:
The world (as we know it) will end one day, and Christ will create a new heaven and a new earth.
But of more importance to us is this:
I believe that the world ends when we die......for us, (individually), at least.
Suppose I die tomorrow..........I believe that the world has then ended for me, anyway. I won't see any more of the world, or have any part in it, until Christ shows up.
Following that logic......the world could end for each one of us, at any moment.
Strange, I know.......and maybe others on here would disagree with me.

Does anyone have any real knowledge/thoughts about the Mayan calendar's date for the end of the world as we know it? On this date, scientists and modern astronomers state that the sun and the earth will be in perfect alignment with the center of the Milky Way galaxy. This only happens once every 25,800 years. Scientists are not sure what the effect will be, but it is possible magnetic currents will spin in opposite directions, or there may be a field effect reversal. Some believe the positions of the north and south poles would shift, which would cause worldwide disaster. Although this event seems farfetched, this pole shift is backed by science. Thoughts? I must admit, I'm freaked. I shouldn't be because God is in control, and Jesus is coming again. How many of you think this is the date He will return (even though I know the Bible states no one will know the exact time/date), based on known facts/predictions about what will happen?
Jesus said that only Father knows when, so I don't realy try to figure out when. And why exactly should we be going by the Mayan calendar?

I don't think that we should be surprized, all this must happen to us.

Jesus said that only God is perfect. Gods intent wasn't for a man to be perfect.

I can't beleive that some people are willing to break one of Gods commandments.

"Day of Trumpets" in the Hebrew means "Rosh Hashanah" It is found written about in the book of Leviticus and Numbers.
Leviticus 23:23-25--"And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall ye have a sabbath, "a memorial of blowing of trumpets", an holy convocation. Ye shall do no servile work therein: but ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the Lord.
Numbers 10:10--"Also in the day of your gladness, and in your solemn days, and in the beginnings of your months, ye shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings that they may be to you for a memorial before your God I am the Lord your God.
Numbers 29:1-6--"And in the seventh month, on the first day of the month, ye shall have an holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work: It is a day of blowing the trumpets unto you. And ye shall offer a burnt offering for a sweet savour unto the Lord one young bullock, one ram, and seven lambs of the first year without blemish. And their meat offering shall be of flour mingled with oil, three tenth deals for a bullock and two tenth deals for a ram. And one tenth deal for one lamb, throughout the seven lambs. And one kid of the goats for a sin offering to make an atonement for you. Beside the burnt offering of the month and his meat offering and the daily burnt offering, and his meat offering and their drink offerings, according unto their manner, for a sweet savour, a sacrifice made by fire unto the Lord."
Now as you can see from these scriptures that "rosh hashanah" was to be had or done on the "first" day of the "seventh" month. On the Jewish calendar it was the month of "Tishri" that was designated the sabbatical month which on our caledars that would be around the months of "September & October."
But the whole purpose behind the "day of trumpets" being the first day of the month Tishri was to usher in and set apart and consecrate the seventh month as the sabbatical month.
Also in Number 10 at the very beginning of that chapter which I did not include above you can read where Moses was instructed by God to have the people make "two silver trumpets" to use for certain things that are mentioned and these two silver trumpets in verse #10 was to be used on this "day of trumpets" which I found interesting. It is also important to understand that this was just a "Day" of blowing the trumpets and not days only done on the first day of the seventh month.
There is most definately "prophectic importance" to this celebration taking place because it is talking within the New Testament and connecting it with the "return of our Lord" in Matthew, 1 Corinthians, 1 Thessalonians 4:16
Matthew 24:31--"And he shall send his "angels" with a great sound of a trumpet and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other." (Matthew 24:30; Revelation 1:7)
1Corinthians 15:52--"In a moment in the twinkling of an eye at the last trump for the trumpet shall sound and the dead shall be raised incorruptible and we shall be changed."
1 Thessalonians 4:16--"For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God and the dead in Christ shall rise first."
The trumpets will be sounded at both the "catching away" of the church when the dead in Christ shall be raised from the dead and those who are alive and remain on the earth shall be caught up to be with the Lord.
Also the second coming of the Lord during the end-time events will also be ushered in by the blowing of the trumpets.
So the sound of the trumpets is a type and shadow of these two events that are yet to take place on earth as the trumpets will be blown just prior to the events.
Anyways I hope I have helped.
