This video reveals something of the beautiful Christlike spirit of those Chinese Christians who are true examples of what it means to love and serve Jesus Christ. It seems that genuine revival thrives in an atmosphere of government repression.

In the past, Hinduism had a reputation for being a peaceful, tolerant religion. Well, all that has changed now that fundamental Hindus once again are forming mobs, killing Christians, burning their homes and churches, and sending thousands for their lives into the forest.

Its happening at the time of writing especially in Orissa state, India. There is also government backed state sponsored violence against Christians in Karnataka, even in Bangalore city.

Someone asked, "Will the heathen who have never heard the Gospel be saved?" It is more a question with me whether we -- who have the Gospel and fail to give it to those who have not -- can be saved. -- Charles Spurgeon
See Ezekiel 33; Acts 18:5,6; Mark 16:15

Its sad to say folks, but nowadays many of the leaders in the charismatic movement can no longer be trusted. The love of money, influence, fame, power and zany spiritual experiences has, for many of them, overcome the love of truth, integrity - actually the love for the true God. Whether this expresses itself as endorsement for bizarre and unbiblical practices, support for America's imperial wars of destruction and mayhem, or enthusiasm for Roman Catholic spirituality - the truth is that we are going to have to choose between following Jesus and following these leaders.

Jesus told us to watch out for false prophets. If they were powerless to deceive born again Christians, I don't think Jesus would have told us to "take heed". In this article, I show how true Christians can become false prophets. The Bible clearly shows that there are men who start off hearing and obeying the LORD God, who end up as soothsayers and destroyers of God's people. The New Testament warns us in 2 Peter 2 and the Book of Jude to watch out for arrogant, money loving preachers. Paul warned us against the times when people would heap up teachers who tell them what their itching ears want to hear. You won't hear too many expositions of these passages on Christian TV today. What a pity, they were never more needed.

If you read motivational books, no doubt you have heard of the importance of setting goals. Without setting goals we tend to drift and we don't achieve great results. Without strong goals all we tend to do is "get by".

Some motivational books encourage us to choose any goal we like. Could be a large house in a good neighbourhood paid off, or a certain kind of car, or holiday. It might be a career achievement. The books then go on to give you some principles through which you can achieve your stated goals.

God is the Awesome Creator of the Universe. He made the universe, and then chose a tiny speck on it to host His most special creation - human beings. The many things that are unique to the earth and unique in our human DNA and makeup point to the design of a Loving Creator.

The Bible teaches that God is love. God loves you. He wants you to enjoy His love. The greatest fulfillment that anyone can know is to give and receive God's love. We were made by God for that.

Its not a popular message, but its important for you to know that you were born into a rebellious and corrupt race - the human race.

At one time we were not that way, but Adam our Father chose disobedience to God, and sadly that affected us as well. We were born marred by sin.

You may think you are not so bad, but its probably because you are comparing yourself to others you believe are worse than yourself.

What counts though is the way God sees it.

God is the Creator, Lawgiver and Judge. We need to consider what Laws God has given, and measure ourselves by what God has said.
