Jeremiah s Prophecy Against Hillsong Church

Jeremiah 23:14 14 I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem a horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah. Hillsong church invites John Howard into their church and praises him and cheers him as being a genuine born again Christian, they promote him as a man to vote for and to support. They strengthen his image in the community when they invite him to their church and cheer in support for him when he arrives to the pulpit while the shepherds of the church shower him with praise.

In Defense Of Notre Dame

On his June 14th entry to his blog entitled "Catholic Spotted at University of Notre Dame, " Tito wrote a satirical piece about how his friend, Bill, Director of Young Adult Ministry for the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston, could not find one loyal Catholic at the University of Notre Dame and thus he could no longer cheer for the Fighting Irish. While I am not immune to humor (in fact, some have criticized my saint-of-the-day blogs as too silly), one cannot readily laugh at mean-spirited or factually misleading "Catholic" treatises. Does one not get offended when hearing "pedophile-priest" or "Pope Benedict Nazi" jokes?

What in the Name of Jesus

So, what in the Name of Jesus are we doing now? Jesus said, "For where two or three come together IN MY NAME, there am I with them" (Matt 18:20). Great, now what? In Mark 16:17, He assured us that, "... these signs will accompany those who believe: IN MY NAME they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well." How's that coming along? Along that same line of thought, He said, (John 14:12-14) "..

We Are Co-Creatros With God - The Secret

People are not sure what their roles are in life and that is understandable. But it is clear to me that everyone knows when they make a mistake and instantly wish they had done it the other way. While it is obvious that life is so unpredictable, that we are part of the equation is also obvious, which is why men suffer what they did not initiate? I got a reaction to my last post in my blog, "God is Responsible, " as follows: "You've lost me, Jackson. While there are definitely benefits to be found in thinking toward the positive rather than the negative (and acting accordingly), the philosophy behind 'The Secret' seems to indicate something further - as if we were truly able to create our own reality.

When My Pastor Lost His Religion

When I was 18, my pastor stood up one Sunday and announced that he would not be preaching. He went on to explain that he had been having an affair for the past 20 years with the wife of another pastor and that he was leaving his wife and children for this woman, stepping down as pastor, and leaving the church... phew! From time to time, I have seen him. (Like the time I went to see Star Wars at the movie theater and my boyfriend said, "Hey isn't that your old pastor kissing that lady? ") He grew a mustache, lost some weight, and avoids the church like the plague. How did it come to this?
