This verse is presented below in three translations. KJV – For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse. NASB – For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through ... Church Fathers And Creationism  By : Greg Neyman - One of the many things that I observe in the debate between young-earth and old-earth creationists, is the constant appeal to the works of past theologians. People are constantly appealing to this church father, or that medieval theologian, in the hopes that they will justify their belief in an old or young earth. Old-earth creationists have pointed to Justin Martyr, Origin, Augustine, and others from the first four centuries after Christ, as believing in an old earth. At ... Psalm 104: The Creation Psalm  By : Greg Neyman - The 104th Psalm has long been known as the "Creation Psalm." This psalm presents a poem about the creation of the world, and it contains several key passages that contains clues about key topics related to the creation, such as the flood, death before the fall of man, and the age of the earth. First, let us establish a basis for the fundamentalist, young earth view of this passage. The Liberty Bible Commentary, produced by Jerry Falwell, states that the theme of this Psalm... Old Earth Belief  By : Greg Neyman - Have you ever been to a church that claimed that the earth is young? Have you ever felt pressured into believing in a young earth, even though you felt the scientific evidence was contrary to a young earth? Have you ever thought that in order to be a Christian, you had to deny science, and believe in a young earth? You are not alone. Many churches preach that the earth is young, and many require you to profess this belief through their statement of faith, which includes a wor... Dinosaurs In The Bible? - Interpreting Job 40-41  By : Greg Neyman - For many years young-earth creationists have pointed to the book of Job, chapters 40-41, as evidence that dinosaurs lived recently. In order to set the record straight, let’s examine this passage of scripture, and see what the possibilities are. I may surprise a few old-earth creationists by my conclusions with this one. First, let’s read the portion of Job 40 that is in question, in the King James Version. Job 40:15-24 – Behemoth 15 Behold now behemoth, which I made ... Put Your Faith In God When Your Fears Overwhelm You  By : Stan Popovich Sometimes, your fears may overwhelm you to the point that you feel like giving up. When this happens, the next step is to put your faith in God. Using the help of God can make a big difference in overcoming your fears. The first step a person should do is to start talking and praying to God. A person can go to church or to a quiet place during the day to tell God that they are having a problem. They should tell God how they feel and ask God for some of his help. A person ... Where's Isaac?  By : Richard Coy In Genesis God tests Abraham’s faith by telling him to offer up his son Isaac as a sacrifice (Gen 22:1-19). Abraham was faithful and God intervened at the last moment. This is a story most of us are familiar with and you might have noticed a similarity between this event and what God does through His own Son in the New Testament. In both events a father is offering up his only son as a sacrifice for others. Casually reading the Genesis account you might have thought that the ... Judge Not! What Goes Around Comes Around  By : Sharron Myers I am sure you have heard that saying many times before, but are you aware that it is a scriptural principal. Yep, Luke 6:378 says, "Judge not, and ye shall not be judged : Condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: Forgive, and ye shall be forgiven. Give, and it shall be given unto: good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again." What Gift Will You Give?  By : Sharron Myers Now that the hustle and bustle of Christmas is around us, this may be a good time to sit back, relax, and contemplate what would be the best gift that we could give this Christmas. We are often told that wisdom is passed down through the ages, so I would like to take you on a little journey back to the time of the Magi and see what truths we can glean from their wanderings. Rhema Therapy  By : Sharron Myers The Words I Speak to You Are Spirit and Are Life (John 6:63) The word Rhema comes from the ancient Greek word meaning “living, breathing word”. It is distinguished from the written Word of God which is logos. The spoken Word of God is considered Rhema. Jesus said, “The Words I speak to you are spirit and are life” (John 6:63) Most of you are probably asking yourself, "What on earth is Rhema Therapy?" Jesus Died For Our Sicknessess Also  By : Dr. Jay Snell Look closely at the words “griefs” and “sorrows” in Isaiah’s prophecy below. Scholarship demands that both these words should have been rendered by our English words “sicknesses” and “pains.” Isa 53:4 4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. (KJV) In this Scripture, Isaiah declared to us that Jesus died for our sickness and pain as well as our sins. Many, many translations of the Bible s... A Faith Building Device  By : Dr. Jay Snell Thirteen times, in the book of Hebrews, the author uses an edifying, faith building Greek device. This device usually begins with the expression “let us.” I call it simply a “let us exhortation.” In other words, when an author used this grammatical device, he/she simply exhorted someone to join in with him/her in an action. He/she could exhort one to join in and help start an action that had not yet begun. Or he/she could exhort someone to join in an action that had b... God Authored All Scripture For Our Benefit  By : Dr. Jay Snell As you delve more and more into the Book of Hebrews, you will become aware of something you have never seen before: namely, the author of Hebrews is more emphatic than any other Bible writer about one major theme; God wrote all the Old Testament Scriptures. This author quoted at least thirty one Old Testament Scriptures in the book of Hebrews. Even when he knew the name of the human instrument that God used to write Scripture, this author spoke as though the Scripture was ... God Is Stronger Than Your Fears And Anxieties  By : Stan Popovich At times, our fears and anxieties may seem too powerful to overcome, however there is one person who is stronger than your fears and that is the power of God. God can be a powerful ally in overcoming our fears, however a person must know where to begin. The key is to talk to God about your problem and then use him as your main foundation in overcoming your fears. A person can go to church or to a quiet place during the day to tell God that they are having a problem. They s... Putting God First  By : Margaret (Peggy) Henderson Kannaday How to Put God First in Your Life. The most important goal. Christmas Time  By : millsy75 Giving of yourself during Christmas Practical Steps To Obtaining Bible Healing  By : Dr. Jay Snell There are promises of healing throughout the Bible. There are also practical steps to obtain our healing. Three of these practical steps are found in the following scripture. Prov 3:7-8 7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. 8 It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones. (KJV) (1) Be not wise in your own eyes. (2) Fear the Lord. (3) Depart from evil. These three things produce “health to thy navel and marrow to thy b... Healing Scriptures Not Seen Before  By : Dr. Jay Snell There are many great healing scriptures. Sometimes, however, you run across one that you have not seen before. Or if you have seen it, God simply has not yet quickened it (made it come alive) for you. Then he quickens it for you and you see complete new revelations in it that you have never seen before. Isaiah reveals one of these hidden, healing Scriptures to us. Isa 57:19 I create the fruit of the lips; Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, sai... Practical Steps To Obtaing Bible Healing  By : Dr. Jay Snell There are promises of healing throughout the Bible. There are also practical steps to obtain our healing. Three of these practical steps are found in the following scripture. Prov 3:7-8 7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. 8 It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones. (KJV) (1) Be not wise in your own eyes. (2) Fear the Lord. (3) Depart from evil. These three things produce “health to thy navel and marrow to thy b... God Has Pleasure When Christians Prosper  By : Dr. Jay Snell God did not create us and then leave us to ourselves. He is very much interested in what happens to his children, the Abrahamic Seed Group. His interest in us caused Him to promise us healing, prosperity, family well being and salvation in the covenant He made with Abraham. (Gentile Christians are grafted into these Abrahamic blessing promises right along with Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Israel.) Powerful Scriptures below demonstrate His interest in our prosperity. ... How To Choose A Christian Counselor  By : Dave Lloyd Christian therapy as a profession is relatively new, having been practiced only over the last few decades. While many in the Christian community adhere to a strict code of Bible-based, scriptural, prayer-focused means of helping individuals, additional methods have proven beneficial. The fear many have who are consider Christian counseling is that they would jeopardize their faith or somehow be disobedient to God or contradict the Bible. Yet through the wise choosing of a Chr... ABCs of Creatively Teaching Youth  By : Ken Sapp If you can Adapt, Be student focused, and Connect everything together, “Teaching Creatively” is as simple as ABC! Family Well Being Promised To Christians  By : Dr. Jay Snell There are too many Scriptures to cite here which show that we can pray in faith for our family. Over and over again, we are told that it will go well with our children. These many Scriptures demonstrate the great fact that our families are included in the promises from God to Abraham. The Abrahamic covenant included four great blessings. They were healing, prosperity, and family well being in addition to salvation. Over four hundred years later, God added the Mosaic L... Universal Law Of Prosperity  By : Dr. Jay Snell Sowing and reaping are universal laws of nature because God set them up to be universal laws of nature. These laws work in all things. What ever is sown is ultimately what is reaped. Scriptures declare it! Here is just one. Gal 6:7-9 7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap...for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not (KJV) This Scripture principle applies to the sowing of finances as well to sowing seed on a farm... Healing With Neither Power Nor Holiness  By : Dr. Jay Snell Thank God that our level of power or holiness has nothing to do with our ability to get our selves or our loved ones healed. Take the case of Peter. In Acts 3, he used the name of Jesus to get the man lying at the Temple Gate healed. In so doing, he declared that his (Peter’s) level of power or holiness had nothing to do with the healing of this helpless man. Acts 3:12 12 And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or... Neither Is There Healing In Any Other Name  By : Dr. Jay Snell The entire context of Acts 3 and 4 is the healing of the lame man at the Temple Gate. This is the occasion of Peter’s declaration that his level of power or holiness had nothing to do with it. His actions, however, demonstrated that using Jesus’ name for healing had everything to do with the healing of this helpless man. One verse in these two chapters, Acts 4:12, contains a hidden key to healing by faith. This key is hidden because of the words translated by our Engl... Spiritual Warfare And The Deuteronomy Factor  By : Dr. Jay Snell The Three Principles of Spiritual Warfare are explained in Deuteronomy 2. To achieve victory, you and I must follow these same principles to the letter. Following them ensures our victory while disregarding them can spell defeat for us as we go after fulfilling our need. These three principles are absolutely essential for us to follow. • Whatever your need, these three principles must be understood. • Then they must be employed by you and me to possess the solution ... Commands With Promise  By : Dr. Jay Snell The Scriptures contain many commandments with a promise attached for The Abrahamic Seed Group. These promises are fulfilled for us when and if we perform the commandment. Here’s a case in point where a commandment with promise was given to The Abrahamic Seed Group. Exod 20:12 12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. (KJV) Paul also reminds us of this same commandment with promise. Eph 6:1-3 ... Mystical Or Mind Over Matter? The Truth About Magic Spells  By : Katerina Guarente Civilizations all over the world have always relied on their faith in spiritual or mystical powers to accomplish truly amazing feats. Long before modern medicine came on the scene, most health concerns were traditionally handled by applying a dose of spirituality, voodoo, witchcraft, astrology, or psychic power from any number of paranormal sources. Hundreds of years ago, one simply couldn’t get through the day without help from the “unseen” world. Of course, that was in the ... The Key To Protecting Your Money  By : Sintilia Miecevole Have you ever experienced a major paradigm shift? You know, the kind where you think you already know something about something... But suddenly, you learn something new about that 'something' that changes your whole perspective and outlook on the topic. If so, then you know exactly what I'm talking about. Now, you know that something this powerful doesn't happen everyday. But somehow you kind of wished it did. Right? So, what if there was an almost-magical, top-se... Prayer And Life Direction  By : Dear Daughter, In my last letter I shared some thoughts about how to give your life direction. I would like to continue those thoughts. There is another important factor that shapes our lives. That factor is our spirituality, or our relationship with God. If you pray and ask God to use you and your life for his purposes, your prayers will be answered, if you are sincere. This is a submission to God and a willingness to walk through opened doors, or opportunities, to se... How To Renew Your Mind For Healing  By : A renewed mind, in the Biblical sense, is a mind that is so saturated with Scripture that it thinks Scripture when a crisis hits, rather than relying on wits for a solution to the crisis. In other words, our minds are renewed when it is so saturated with the word of God that we think Scripture when decision time arrives, rather than trying to “figure things out for ourselves” by using our wits. At that point in time, we know we have renewed our minds in the Biblical sense... Faith Turns The Impossible Into Reality  By : Notice how God creates reality through faith. In Genesis he performed a miracle for Abraham. He made a statement that was humanly impossible but God made it so. Gen 15:5-6 5 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be. 6 And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness. (KJV) God told Abraham that his physical descendants wo... Scripture For When You Feel Alone  By : Here is a Scripture that will build your faith to a fever pitch. Actually this is my wife Corky’s favorite Scripture. She signs her name with this reference on every letter she writes. She is very active in ministry. Over the years, she has answered so much mail. She has sent out thousands of letters. And all of them are signed with "In His Palms." Now see this powerful Scripture. Isa 49:15-16 15 Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compass... Scripture For When You Are Helpless  By : All of us who live in the East Texas area just came through Hurricane Rita. Much damage was done through here. Through it all, though, Proverbs 1:33 came through for us. Prov 1:33 But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil. (KJV) In the wee hours of the morning, when the storm was at its fiercest, slamming trees into our house and shaking it to the very foundations, God gave us the Scripture to pray. We were to pray for Pau... Scripture For When You Have A Broken Heart  By : The Scripture below is very special to all of us. We are aware that God heals our bodies. We also need to be aware the He heals our broken hearts. Ps 147:3 3 He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds. (KJV) He not only heals our broken heart, he binds up our wounds. Think back over your life. How many heart wounds we have all had? But thank God that he comes through with a healing for our hearts so we can carry on for him and our families. The ... Cowboy Spirituality  By : Phyllis Coletta How one cowboy faced the most devastating loss imaginable. Christian Roommates - Keep Praying!  By : Ian Byrd So you've found a group of Christian roommates to move in with. You now have a potentially wonderful center of support at your home. However, it's up to you and your new roommates to take advantage of living with fellow Christians. If you don't actively pursue God together, it will make no difference that you have roommates who are believers.
