WorldNetDaily: 'Da Vinci Code' errors: A quick list: "We are all entitled to our own opinions, but we are not entitled to our own facts. It is OK for a novelist to create a fictional story and even a fictional setting if he wishes. What you can't do with impunity is create a fictional foreground and fictional background, the latter of which you claim is based on fact. That is precisely what Dan Brown has done. His novel, 'The Da Vinci Code,' claims to be based on facts, but his 'facts' are just as much fiction as his fiction.
Upon examination, 'The Da Vinci Code' is chock full of errors. Some are unimportant; others, if true, would spell the end of Christianity. Here is a short list of 'Da Vinci Code' errors. More errors from the book are rebutted on the new documentary special, 'The Da Vinci Delusion,' which airs May 13 and May 14 nationwide. For listings, go to www.davincidelusion.tv."

WorldNetDaily: Coulter's hottest book ever
WorldNetDaily: Coulter's hottest book ever: "In 'Godless,' she throws open the doors of the Church of Liberalism, showing us:
* its sacraments (abortion)
* its holy writ (Roe v. Wade)
* its martyrs (from Soviet spy Alger Hiss to cop-killer Mumia Abu Jamal)
* its clergy (public school teachers)
* its churches (government schools, where prayer is prohibited but condoms are free)
* its doctrine of infallibility (as manifest in the 'absolute moral authority' of spokesmen from Cindy Sheehan to Max Cleland)
* and its cosmology (in which mankind is an inconsequential accident)
Then, of course, there's the liberal creation myth: Charles Darwin's theory of evolution."

Pros and Cons to go to Florida
Thanks for your input, I appreciate that you took the time to review my decision.
Yes, I desire to be settled somewhere at least enough to better hear from the Lord. Hearing the Lord is my deepest desire. This Florida decision has been a great exercise to pursue my goal to improve my hearing from the Lord.

Returning to IT After a Hiatus? - Tech & IT Job Resources from Monster.com
Returning to IT After a Hiatus? - Tech & IT Job Resources from Monster.com: "Indeed, employers often view techies who have been out of the workforce a year or longer as stale, even if their most recent position involved technologies still in use. And if your technical knowledge is no longer relevant, even if the underlying experience is still applicable, the bar for returning is that much higher. An example would be a programmer with expertise in out-of-date languages.
Gausman says techies who want to return at the same level should take no more than six months off. A break of one or two years means 'you're going to have to be willing to take a lesser position.'
Jon Byrd, principal of IT staffing firm Eximer Technology Solutions, similarly says techies returning to the field after being away a year or longer will often 'have to take a less-than-optimal position to get some hands-on skills.'
But others are more optimistic. 'Up to two years, returning to IT is very possible,' says Joshua Feinberg, cofounder of Computer Consulting 101, a training firm for IT consultants. 'Between two and five years, it's possible but difficult. More than five years, you'd be facing an uphill battle.'"

Pentecostalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pentecostalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Theologically, most Pentecostal denominations are aligned with Evangelicalism in that they emphasize the reliability of the Bible and the need for the transformation of an individual's life with faith in Jesus. Most Pentecostals also adhere to the doctrine of Biblical inerrancy. Pentecostals differ from Fundamentalists by placing more emphasis on personal spiritual experience."

Calvinism vs. Arminianism from Calvary Chapel Cheyenne
Calvinism vs. Arminianism
A Discussion of Doctrine
by Larry TaylorINTRODUCTION
God has, in these last days, raised up Calvary Chapel as a ministry of balance. Since its inception under the leadership of Pastor Chuck Smith, Calvary Chapel ministries have sought the Biblical middle ground between the extremes of Pentecostalism versus fundamentalism, emotionalism versus traditionalism, and Calvinism versus Arminianism. With respect to this latter debate, no final solution is possible. Great theological minds have debated the issues of free will versus the sovereignty of God for centuries without ever being able to reconcile the two. Arguing for one side at the expense of the other is foolish because it is by nature not provable, and therefore is an argument which no one can win. Humility demands that we bow in the presence of a God who is beyond our intellectual comprehension and confess the wisdom of Deuteronomy 29:29: "The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things which are revealed belong to us and to our children forever..."
WHAT’S Wrong with the “WORD-FAITH” Movement?
WHAT’S WRONG WITH THE “WORD-FAITH” MOVEMENT?
Many popular evangelists are involved with “Positive Confession” or the “Word-Faith” movement. What’s wrong with this movement?
Some of America’s best known televangelists subscribe either partly or wholly to what’s commonly referred to as “positive confession,” the “Word-Faith” teaching, or the “prosperity” doctrine. Its chief representatives today seem to be Kenneth Copeland, Kenneth Hagin, Fred Price, Charles Capps, and Casey Treat, though there are certainly many other evangelists, teachers, and writers who promote this teaching.

Even the long-absent Mary (Jessica Biel) appears in Eric (Stephen Collins) and Annie's (Catherine Hicks) shared daydream and makes a call to the family to share her own good news. The wedding day ends happily, though not in a way anyone could have predicted. Mackenzie Rosman, Haylie Duff, Nikolas Brino and Lorenzo Brino also star.

WorldNetDaily: Bush remarks on National Day of Prayer: "From our nation's prayerful beginnings, America has grown and prospered. Through prayer, we humbly recognize our continued dependence on divine providence.
I want to thank you all for keeping prayer a part of our national life. May God bless each one of you, and may God continue to bless our nation."

| 2006 Prayer for the Nation |
From the beginning, You have
been with us through many wars and conflicts; Your right
arm has saved us. We have
been amazingly and
graciously blessed.
Today, we confess our sin
of not responding to Your
right to rule in our lives and our nation. Too often we have
despised and rejected Your will while imposing our own, and we
are now facing the consequences
of our disobedience.
Draw us back to Yourself
that we may return to Your
ways once again.
Without You we can do nothing.
You have promised that if we
honor You, You will once again honor this great nation.
That is our fervent prayer.
For Your honor
and glory we pray,
Amen.

WorldNetDaily: The life that's worth living
WorldNetDaily: The life that's worth living: "But we are reminded that Jesus is not just our Shepherd; He is the good shepherd. It is important to know that the word used here for 'good' doesn't just mean morally good, though it includes that. It also could be translated 'beautiful' or 'winsome' or 'lovely,' even 'attractive.' Jesus is the beautiful, attractive, winsome Shepherd, and the Shepherd's plan for His flock – more specifically, the Lord's plan for you – is that your life would flourish. It is His absolute joy to bless you."

Harvest Crusades ::: Christchurch 2006
Harvest Crusades ::: Christchurch 2006: "Dear Friend,
I'd like to welcome you the church to the Crusade Connection. It's our way of getting the body of Christ involved in what God is doing through the Harvest Crusades in 2006. Just one day from now, I'll be preaching the gospel to thousands of people in Christchurch, New Zealand, and I could use your prayers.
I believe your prayers go a long way. As the Bible says, 'The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and wonderful results' (James 5:16 NLT). So if you could take just a few moments to pray for Harvest 06 in Christchurch, New Zealand, April 28–30, I know you will greatly impact the kingdom of God.
It is my prayer that you enjoy the rest of the Crusade Connection. It's designed to give you a behind-the-scenes glance at the Harvest Crusades. With each Crusade Connection you receive, you'll gain new insights into what takes place just days before a crusade. You'll also get to know the crusade staff as they share their experiences in serving God through the Harvest Crusades.
In Jesus,
Greg Laurie"

Too good not to pass on -- Good one ---- Tailgating (A VERY GOOD ONE!!!)
A man was being tailgated by a stressed out woman on a busy boulevard. Suddenly, the light turned yellow, just in front of him.
He did the right thing, stopping at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the intersection.
The tailgating woman was furious and honked her horn, screaming in frustration as she missed her chance to get through the intersection, dropping her cell phone and makeup.
As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window and looked up into the face of a very serious police officer.
The officer ordered her to exit her car with her hands up.
He took her to the police station where she was searched, finger printed, photographed, and placed in a holding cell.
After a couple of hours, a policeman approached the cell and opened the door.
She was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting officer was waiting with her personal effects.
He said, "I'm very sorry for this mistake. You see, I pulled up behind your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping off the guy in front of you, and cussing a blue streak at him. I noticed the 'Choose Life' license plate holder, the 'What Would Jesus Do' bumper sticker, the 'Follow Me to Sunday- School' bumper sticker, and the chrome-plated Christian fish emblem on the trunk.
Naturally... I assumed you had stolen the car.

Something every American should see.
What is it? See below the photo......... 
This statue currently stands outside the Iraqi palace, now home to the 4th Infantry division. It will eventually be shipped home and put in the memorial museum in Fort Hood, Texas. The statue was created by an Iraqi artist named Kalat, who for years was forced by Saddam Hussein to make the many hundreds of bronze busts of Saddam that dotted Baghdad. Kalat was so grateful for the Americans liberation of his country; he melted 3 of the heads of the fallen Saddam and made the statue as a memorial to the American soldiers and their fallen warriors. Kalat worked on this memorial night and day for several months. To the left of the kneeling soldier is a small Iraqi girl giving the soldier comfort as he mourns the loss of his comrade in arms. Do you know why we don't hear about this in the news? Because it is heart warming and praise worthy. The media avoids it because it does not have the shock effectA flashed breast or the controversy politics does.
But we can do something about it. We can pass this along to as many people as we can in honor of all our brave military who are making a difference. And please pass this on!

from Eve of Berry Home Fellowship to her Prayer Partners
According to the weather reports, it is my understanding that it is 122 degrees in Iraq right now -- and the low will be 111! ; the American troops and the Iraquis need our prayers for strength, endurance, and safety. If it be God's will, give these men and women the strength they need to prevail.
I am sorry but I am not breaking this one.....Let us pray.
Prayer chain for our Military and the people...please don't break it...
Please send this on after a short prayer.
Pray for the soldiers.
"Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. I ask this in the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Amen."
"Dear God, protect the people so they can come to the knowledge of your Son. He died for Americans and all the other nations. Grant them favor. Take us out of our confort zone to make your will be done on earth. They are willing to give up their lives for a god. Give us the courage to give up our lives for the God, you My Lord. In return we will give you all the GLORY and the HONOR, in the name of Jesus who gave His life for all."
Prayer Request: When you receive this, please stop for a moment and say a prayer for all people around the world.
This was sent to me to pray just for the American troops, but God wanted me to pray for all. What He does for one, He can do for others.

Bible study draws a crowd
Bible study draws a crowd: "And the ACLU won a challenge several years ago that prohibits the Tangipahoa Parish School Board from allowing a man known as the 'pizza preacher' from preaching Christianity during lunch periods at local schools while distributing free pizza."
