    What is Abortion?

    Elective abortion is called "murder" by members of the pro-life community, and worse still, is claimed by some to be the modern equivalent of "child sacrifice" as practiced in ancient pagan (demonic) religious cultures by some members of the Christian Church. I've pondered this matter at great...

    The Real Christmas Story

    The real Christmas story is that God sent his Son to the world so that we might not perish but have everlasting life! This is what no one can contest, that "the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and...

    Social Myths About Paganized Christianity and (pure) Hebrew culture

    I'm posting half of a Blog entry I wrote 2 years ago. I knew someone in the Charismatic movement who was a crusader against Christmas, especially the Christmas tree. In my life, I've seen a lot of that sort of thing. Anyway this is the last half of that write up, that deals with some of...

    From New Age, Psychedelic Trance culture, to the Occult, Paganism & Satanism... Where am I now?

    Hello everyone. I hope that some of you can bear with me and take the time to read this, as I try to get all the details straight and include everything relevant. I’m struggling to come to Christ fully. And I am wondering if anyone here can offer insight, or if anyone has had similar...

    On to something?

    I copied this from another older thread because I think it deserves a spot of it's own: Are any familiar with the numerical values of the letters with final forms? I believe the mem in final form is 600. I broke this down recently with 66 (so 666) and it came out to Hebrew words with mem...

    Should Christians practice the holidys of Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas?

    Halloween is not Christian but neither are the trinity of holidays mentioned every last one has Pagan Roots and in some cases steeped in human sacrifices and we are told by God to avoid the strange practices not of His will.

    If an atheist asks you, "why are Christians right and Hinduists/Buddhists wrong"?

    Hi guys, I'm looking for this sort of evangelical advice. Arguing against atheism isn't that difficult since there's no explanation the the creation of the initial singularity during Big Bang other than a supernatural power. But imagine such situation. Let's say the atheist agrees with you that...

    Prayer for my Friends please!

    One friend wishes that his family would come to salvation. Please note that he and his uncle are the only Christians I think are living today. His brother is estranged from his mother and my friend takes care of her. I have another friend who was Christian and chose to be Pagan. I feel...

    The Bible Says Satan is Zeus

    I don't know where else to post this, but for some reason I've never seen anyone talk about and/or address on how in the Christian Bible the New Testament states Satan is the ancient pagan Greek God Zeus. "Revelation 2:12-13 In Pergamon, where Satan's Throne is" "The Pergamon Altar is a...

    Do I need to be baptized?

    **Read Edit** When I was born I was baptized into Catholicism, but after some revelations I figured out Catholicism wasn't right. I consider myself Christian in the Sense that I believe in God, and accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savoir; as well as I try to follow the word as God. I don't...

    Learning to decipher between beliefs and indoctrination

    Before putting this out to an open forum like this, I gave it to my brother to ask his thoughts as he is a bit more accustomed to listening to my crazy thoughts. He enthusiastically said post it! He also told me to offer you a few more verses regarding practicing our own traditions to give you...

    So chaps, in another place I was recently shown photographs of architectural features of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City, and alleged photographs of a Halloween party, that could only be regarded as disturbing. Now, disturbing incidents of liberal clergy at the cathedral...

    Biblical conspiracies?

    Has anyone else here looked into the theory that says that many things depicted in the Bible were taken from earlier religious traditions? I've had an interest in this for a while, and I've found some interesting facts that I can't debunk. This article summarizes the theory well...
