The Cross Remains

I'll admit that the world is changing so fast these days that I get a little fearful at times. I wonder if everyone's lost their minds and forgotten what really matters in life.

I’ve noticed that when people stop believing in God, they don’t stop believing in everything. They usually replace Him with something inferior: a do-it-yourself religion of their own creation. These are the New Pagans, and what they worship is the earth and nature. But since they grew up used to the Personal God of…

Whatever God has blessed you with, you’d better “tie a bow on it”. Because it’s a gift - you didn’t earn it, and it might not be there tomorrow…

If Christianity is so wonderful, why are some Christians such jerks? Good question. I know people who’ve been put off from Christianity mainly because of some “Christians” they’ve met. They see people say really dumb things and attribute it to their Christian faith. They watch believers being hateful toward someone who believes differently from them.…
