Translations and the Bible By : Robin Calamaio Why are there so many different Bible translations? And how difficult is such an undertaking anyway? How much is known about Koine Greek or about Hebrew scriptures? Well, let’s take a peek at the task Bible translators face. Who knows - you might decide to become one! 13 Reasons for Calamity, Disease, Accidents, Afflictions, Mayhem, and the Bible By : Robin Calamaio Can any sense be made of the "body blows" of life? Are we simply victims of random mayhem - or is there some purpose behind life's troubles? And is it wrong to ask ..."Why?" Well, come and see. Religion v Spirituality By : Rick McBride Considers a few of the differences between these two phenomena. Some Miracles of The Quran - 2 By : Harun Yahya As we know, the only source of light in the Solar System is the Sun. With advances in technology, astronomers discovered that the Moon was not a source of light but that it merely reflects the light reaching it from the Sun. The expression "lamp" in the above verse is a translation of the Arabic word "siraaj," which most perfectly describes the Sun, the source of light and heat. Some Miracles of The Quran -1 By : Harun Yahya The 20th century saw a great many new discoveries regarding celestial phenomena in the universe. One of these entities, which has only recently been encountered, is the Black Hole. The Wave-Like Properties of the Electron and the Scientific Proof By : Harun Yahya Electrons are particles spinning and revolving around the nucleus of the atom similar to the earth rotating on its own axis as it also revolves around the sun. This rotation, like that of the planets, is realized ceaselessly and in perfect order on paths we call orbits. Quantum Physics: The Discovery That Scientifically Demolished Materialism By : Harun Yahya The quantum model of universe is an attempt to purge the Big Bang of its creationist implications. Supporters of this model base it on the observations of quantum (subatomic) physics. In quantum physics, it is to be observed that subatomic particles appear and disappear spontaneously in a vacuum. All Philosophies Constructed On The Basis Of Matter Is Collapsed By : Harun Yahya In the early 20th century, scientists discovered something new: that matter was not as we had imagined it to be. Matter was not solid. Matter had no colors. It gave off no smells, sounds or image. Matter was simply energy. Just What If ... What Then? By : Theresa Twogood Just what if I was in enough of a subjunctive, rainy-day mood to ask the following questions, what then? Secrets To Reading The Bible By : William Verch Did you ever wonder why the Bible is so hard to read? It’s simple really. God is looking for people who are willing to pursue Him. The Bible is like a gold mine. Now, if I were to give you a real live gold mine, would you just walk in and pick up the gold? No, of course not. You have to dig for it, but the reward is incredibly valuable. I promise if you dig into the Bible you’ll find secrets FAR more valuable than just gold. How Purposelessness Affects the Society By : Harun Yahya In our day, people seriously lack a purpose in life. Almost everyone adopts a standard way of living. To feed one's self, to find a house in which to reside, to set up a family, and to have a job are the praised values to which one mostly aspires. In this standard way of living, the most important goal in life is to find ways to make a better living and to raise children. The Clash of Civilizations is the Product of a Darwinist Mindset By : Harun Yahya The cartoon caricature recently published in Denmark, which has caused such distress throughout the Islamic world, has once again raised the claim of a “clash of civilizations,” whose flames have been so persistently stoked by certain circles. The caricature in question and the idea of a clash of civilizations are nothing more than reflections of the dark mental framework, tending towards violence, of Darwinist and materialist circles. The Impact of Disbelief on Economy By : Harun Yahya Economy occupies most of our daily talk. In rich and poor countries alike, few communities are immune from escalating economic problems. The majority of people in the world live on the breadline while many countries depend on foreign 'aid' for survival. Receiving foreign 'aid' adds more to their problems, since, unable to pay even the interest, these countries face great hardship. When the god of Empiricism Fails - Science Blocks Its Ears By : Rev Michael Bresciani A recent report out of one American university students were advised not to debate with creationists about the origins of life. Debates have become a great medium just to bring the latest findings of creationism to the table. How Harmony Supplies Abundance - Law of Attraction Classics: Charles Fillmore By : Robert C.

Bible By : Galal P Doss World’s Last Chance Explains How John Paul II Will Appear as the Next and last Pope Religion & Politic You can't have one without the other! By : Rev. David B. Smith Hear this, you who trample on the needy and bring the poor of the land to an end, saying, "When will the new moon be over, that we may sell grain? And the Sabbath, that we may offer wheat for sale, that we may make the ephah small and the shekel great and deal deceitfully with false balances, that we may buy the poor for silver and the needy for a pair of sandals and sell the chaff of the wheat?" The LORD has sworn by the pride of Jacob: "Surely I will never forget any of their deeds(Amos 8:1-1 Hitchens is not Great: The Poison of Pride By : Rev Michael Bresciani In the sixties one of the more hackneyed slogans of the time was from Friedrich Nietzsche’s Joyous Wisdom. “God is dead: Nietzsche.

The Falwellian View of an Orwellian World By : Rev Michael Bresciani As if to qualify his life and message those who loved and those who doubted Rev. Jerry Falwell often remind us that when it seemed he was extreme at least he apologized.

Jerry Falwell - The Passing of a Father By : Rev Michael Bresciani The news is full with biographies and eulogies about the passing of Rev. Jerry Falwell.

Starbucks Coffee a Taste of Heavenly Ignorance By : Rev Michael Bresciani Starbucks makes the news again not because they have produced the best coffee in the world but because once again they have created a controversy with their messages printed on Starbucks cups. Christians Sleeping - Antichrist Creeping By : Rev Michael Bresciani Christians worldwide are recognizing the errors of the emergent church, cults and pseudo Christian religions. What they seem wholly unaware of is the fact that in America there is a movement to silence the voices that are still preaching the true gospel. Moral Lessons from the Animal Kingdom By : Rev Michael Bresciani A large number of animals mate for life in the animal kingdom. Although they don’t adhere strictly to this social order in every instance there is one rule they never break. What is that rule? Make Christianity relevant and moral By : Is Christianity doomed? Is it on the wane? Is it stronger than we may think? It is hard to answer any of these questions but there are two things about the ‘Church’ we should know. First its ‘product’ and philosophy is out of step with the modern world and far too supernaturally focused. Second, most if not all mainstream churches are left-wing and display disturbing immoral relativity on key issues ranging from the market; to fighting Islamic fascism; to even acknowledging the extermination of literally millions of Christians by Muslims. These weaknesses in the mainstream churches make it doubtful that we need ‘Christianity’ to save our civilization. If the churches are aligned against our civilization what good are they? Why is Islam a religion? By : Imagine that you have traveled to another location to attend to personal affairs. You step off a train in some locale, take your bags and proceed to your destination.

By : The 20th century’s most universally respected Islamic scholar is Dr. Arthur Jeffery. He headed the Department of Middle East Languages at Columbia University and taught linguistics at the School of Oriental Studies in Cairo. He wrote: "The briefest investigation suffices to reveal that the problem of Islamic sources is relatively simple, for most volumes represent little more than the working over (with fabulous and irrelevant additions and modifications) of perhaps half a handful Arabic texts of primary importance.” Why is Islam a religion - #2 ? By : Note: Readers can look up a translated Koranic verse in multiple languages, by visiting the website www.quranbrowser.com and typing in references. For example: 47:1-1. (47 is the chapter or sura, and 1-2 are the verses). The Incredible Speed of Falling – Stand Up America By : Rev Michael Bresciani Recent polls say Americans deal with the ever changing landscape of culture and politics by retreating to the tube with remote in hand and no plan to budge.

Perhaps yours is watching television.” Worlds First GPS Tracking System is Nearly Two Thousand Years Old By : Rev Michael Bresciani The height of GPS tracking may have been reached recently with the advent of a handheld unit for pedestrians.

Preacher Gets Religion; Is Overcome By Tolerance By : simi Preacher Gets Religion; Is Overcome By Tolerance How much of the Bible is literally true? By : Donald ODell A lot of people think we have to believe the Bible literally or not at all. Others think the Bible contains only stories, myths, or legends. What's the real deal? Is there literal truth in the Bible? The literally true writings in the Bible are generally in the form of telling about historical events, even if it's written about differently than we write about history today. Can we believe the Bible when it comes to its history?

I'm a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it.
