WorldNetDaily: Murdoch pastor gets heat for mogul's porn channels

WorldNetDaily: Murdoch pastor gets heat for mogul's porn channels: "'Rupert Murdoch is a born-again Christian and Rick Warren claims to be his pastor,' says Chris Rosebrough, head of the Christian Accountability Network. 'As a Christian, Murdoch is committing an egregious sin by owning, expanding and profiting from pornographic channels, and Rick Warren, his pastor, has a biblical duty to call Murdoch to repentance and/or put him out of the church.'"

News 14 | 24 Hour Local News | TOP STORIES | People protest for prayer at public meetings: "YADKIN COUNTY, N.C. – Several hundred people were in downtown Yadkinville Saturday morning.

“I want to be out and let everyone know that we are standing for what’s right – our religious freedom and the right to pray in Jesus’ name,” said Pastor Billy Seat of Southside Baptist Church.

It was all to show the county commissioners they want sectarian prayer.

“I am greatly encouraged that this many people would come out on this Saturday and send a signal to the Yadkin County Commissioners that we want you to represent those who sent you there and allow everybody in this county, when the opportunity presents itself, to pray in the name of the deity that they choose to pray in,” said Rev. Ron Baity of Return America."

ActiveWord: The Tragedy at VA Tech



'Why did God allow this to happen?' That's a question that has been asked tens of thousands of times in various forms this week. Of course, the reason for those questions is the horrific crime committed on the campus of Virginia Tech earlier this week.

As a matter of fact, a friend just told me about an email he received yesterday from a skeptical acquaintance. The skeptic asked, 'You claim that your God is sovereign and that He is good. So how do you explain this?'

But it is not just skeptics asking hard questions this week. I know that a lot of sincere believers wrestle with doubts or confusion whenever one of these senseless tragedies takes place. It's okay to have questions, as long as we know where to go for real answers--God's unfailing Word.

There we learn that, though God is sovereign, we live in a fallen world, filled with fallen people with the freedom to choose. But we also learn that, for those of us who have turned our lives over to Him, He is using His sovereign might to cause everything that happens to work for our good (Romans 8:28). God's truth allows us to comprehend the incomprehensible.

Click here to receive the complimentary audio teaching by Pastor Bob Coy titled "The Goodness of God."

I have more I'd like to share with you along these lines than I can't possibly include in an email. That's why I want to make a teaching of mine available to you at no cost. It is called "The Goodness of God." My hope is that it will help you grasp God's ultimate sovereignty and goodness, even in the shadow of such a devastating tragedy--and that it can help you find answers to the questions you, or your friends and loved ones, may be asking right now.
If you would like a copy of this audio CD, simply click here. It is yours just for requesting it.

Until the whole world hears,

The Key to Success! by Steve Arterburn

New Life Ministries: 1-800-NEW-LIFE: "The Key to Success!

by Steve Arterburn

'As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, O God.' - Romans 5:3-5

Looking for an edge in life? Consider this: God is the key to any success you may have in learning to control your desires. He must be your strength, your counselor, and your sure foundation.

Why is God so important? Because He’s the source and fulfillment of all human life, including yours. In other words, you were created by God as well as for God. We often forget the latter.

St. Augustine made this beautiful confession nearly seventeen centuries ago: “Our hearts are restless until they find rest in You, O Lord.” It was true for him then, and it’s true for you now.

“My soul yearns, even faints, for the courts of the Lord; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.” (Psalm 84:2)
“Whoever drinks the water I give Him,” said Jesus, “will never thirst…[it] will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” (John 14:4)
“I am the bread of life,” said Jesus, “He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty.” (John 6:35)

Behind all your cravings is a craving for G"

The Ransomed Heart - Missing the Most Important Thing



Missing the Most Important Thing
04/22/2007

We take folks through a discipleship program whereby they master any number of Christian precepts and miss the most important thing of all, the very thing for which we were created: intimacy with God. There are, after all, those troubling words Jesus spoke to those who were doing all the “right” things: “Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you’” (Matt. 7:23). Knowing God. That’s the point.

You might recall the old proverb: “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” The same holds true here. Teach a man a rule and you help him solve a problem; teach a man to walk with God and you help him solve the rest of his life. Truth be told, you couldn’t master enough principles to see yourself safely through this Story. There are too many surprises, ambiguities, exceptions to the rule. Things are hard at work—is it time to make a move? What has God called you to do with your life? Things are hard at home—is this just a phase your son is going through, or should you be more concerned? You can’t seem to shake this depression—is it medical or something darker? What does the future hold for you—and how should you respond?

Only by walking with God can we hope to find the path that leads to life. That is what it means to be a disciple. After all—aren’t we “followers of Christ”? Then by all means, let’s actually follow him. Not ideas about him. Not just his principles. Him.

(Waking the Dead , 96–97)

WorldNetDaily: University convocation told of Allah, not Jesus

WorldNetDaily: University convocation told of Allah, not Jesus: "Speakers at the Virginia Tech convocation yesterday called on Allah and Buddha in their efforts to minister to the survivors, family and friends of victims of the shooting massacre at the school – but Jesus wasn't mentioned.

It was left up to President Bush to come the closest to offering a biblical message of hope, when he suggested the school community that lost 32 members to the shootings by an out-of-control resident alien student find 'comfort in the grace and guidance of a loving God.'"

Size Doesn’t Matter

New Life Ministries: 1-800-NEW-LIFE: "Size Doesn’t Matter

by Steve Arterburn

'Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.' - Ephesians 5:1

We live in a culture that values things that are large, extravagant, and impossible to miss. For this reason, we’re tempted to look at the struggles in our rather ordinary lives, and consider our victories insignificant if they’re not acknowledged or recognized by others.

But that’s just not true. Victor Hugo, the great French playwright who penned Les Miserables, rightly said our “greatest actions are performed in minor struggles. Life, misfortune, isolation, abandonment and poverty are battlefields which have their heroes–obscure heroes who are at times greater than illustrious heroes.”

It’s not the size of the audience, or the amount of applause, that determines the value of your achievements. Live your life before the one true God. And live it with faith, hope, and love even though you’re not getting accolades for it. Remember, your true character is what you do when no one is looking.

“Live in such a way that you would not be ashamed to sell your parrot to the town gossip.' - Will Rogers (1879-"

Worth a chuckle

"Worth a chuckle" shared by my friend Paulieeeee.

The Headache

The doctor said, "Bill, the good news is I can cure your headaches. The bad news is that it will require castration. You have a very rare condition, which causes your testicles to press on your spine and the pressure creates one hell of a headache. The only way to relieve the pressure is to remove the testicles."

Bill was shocked and depressed. He wondered if he had anything to live for. He had no choice but to go under the knife. When he left the hospital, he was without a headache for the first time in 20 years, but he felt like he was missing an important part of himself.

As he walked down the street, he realized that he felt like a different person. He could make a new beginning and live a new life.

He saw a men's clothing store and thought, "That's what I need ... A
new suit."

He entered the shop and told the salesman, "I'd like a new suit."

The elderly tailor eyed him briefly and said, "Let's see ... Size 44 Long."

Bill laughed, "That's right, how did you know?

"Been in the business 60 years!" the tailor said.

Bill tried on the suit, it fit perfectly. As Bill admired himself in the mirror,

The salesman asked, "How about a new shirt?"

Bill thought for a moment and then said, "Sure."
The salesman eyed Bill and said, "Let's see, 34 sleeves and 16-1/2 neck."

Bill was surprised, "That's right, how did you know?" "Been in the business 60 years."

Bill tried on the shirt, and it fit perfectly.
Bill walked comfortably around the shop, and the salesman asked, "How about some new underwear?"

Bill thought for a moment and said, "Sure."

The salesman said, "Let's see...Size 36."

Bill laughed, "Ah ha! I got you; I've worn a size 34 since I was 18 years old."

The salesman shook his head, "You can't wear a size 34. A size 34 Would press your testicles up against the base of your spine and give you one hell of a headache."

New suit - $400
New shirt - $36
New underwear - $6
Second Opinion - PRICELESS

A Joseph Calling by Os Hillman

MarketplaceLeaders - Os Hillman and Angie Hillman: "A Joseph Calling
Os Hillman

And he sent a man before them - Joseph, sold as a slave. - Psalm 105:17

God is doing a unique work around the world today. He is rising up Josephs throughout the world. Some are still in the 'pit' stage of their pilgrimage, while others are heading toward fruitfulness. What does it take for a man to become a true Joseph? It takes years of preparation and testing to be a true Joseph. It takes what the psalmist says in Psalm 105:17. He called down famine on the land and destroyed all their supplies of food; and he sent a man before them - Joseph, sold as a slave. They bruised his feet with shackles, his neck was put in irons, till what he foretold came to pass, till the word of the Lord proved him true. The king sent and released him, the ruler of peoples set him free (Psalm 105:16-20)."

WorldNetDaily: Angels singing 'caught on tape'

WorldNetDaily: Angels singing 'caught on tape': "A retired Air Force officer who now spends his days authoring books on Christianity has posted an online collection of recordings he believes captures voices and music of God's angels in heaven.

'I have four specific recordings of angels singing in church settings,' Jim Bramlett of Lake Mary, Fla., told WND. 'It happened supernaturally. There's no other explanation. It's either from God or from the devil, and I don't think the devil is in the business of worshipping Jesus. That is not in his job description.'

Bramlett, 76, collected the tapes from various sources in recent years, and has now put them on his ChoicesForLiving website, where readers can click on several links to listen to three recordings made in the U.S., and one from China.

The Feb. 6, 1996, recording at the Greater Grace World Outreach Church in Baltimore, Md., starts off with a woman playing a piano, and gradually, accompanying voices are heard in the background. Bramlett described them as 'beautiful voices of beings who were not in the service.'

'I have the full tape with the pastor discussing the situation with the congregation, and about 25 people gave testimony to hearing the voices. They were all in awe at wha"

WorldNetDaily: 10 most underreported stories of 2006

WorldNetDaily: 10 most underreported stories of 2006: "the list of the 10 most 'spiked' or underreported stories of the last year, according to an annual WND survey.

At the end of each year, news organizations typically present their retrospective replays of what they consider to have been the top news stories in the previous 12 months.

WND's editors, however, have long considered it far more newsworthy to publicize the most important unreported or underreported news events of the year – to highlight perhaps for one last time major news stories that were undeservedly 'spiked' by the establishment press.

WND Editor and CEO Joseph Farah has sponsored 'Operation Spike' every year since 1988, and since founding WorldNetDaily in May 1997, he has continued the annual tradition.

Here, with our readers' help, are WorldNetDaily editors' picks for the 10 most underreported stories of 2006:"
