![]() Ability to Endure by Rodney Howard BrowneAll of a sudden, this great man, this strong-hearted and efficient P. M. Of a mighty country, fell down inside. That was what has happened to Joseph at this enthusiastically awaited time.
'Joseph hurried out for he was deeply stirred over his brother, and he sought a place to weep ; and he entered his chamber and wept there' ( Genesis 43:30 ). Can't you imagine the scene? All of a sudden, the gorgeous, assured leader of millions has rushed to his bedroom and slipped down in sob... ![]() Billy Graham and theological humility, will the next generation follow in his foosteps?While I'm looking forward to the Innovative Evangelism Conference next week, I think a serious reflection on the man that most of us attending the conference draw the bulk of our inspiration from—Billy Graham—is in order. ![]() When do we as a people say enough is enough?I remember reading in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights about freedom of religion. No one person or group can tell us that we have to follow any religion.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. We must all hold it in our hearts and read carefully. ![]() Introduction of Astrology By AstroyogiAstrology was introduced over 5000 and possibly as much as 7000 years ago.

They come off as loving and peaceful until the truth of what is actually written in the Bible comes up. ![]() When Does Joy Appear?The New Testament makes it very plain that our source of joy comes from a relationship with Jesus. Jesus Himself spoke of two ways that we might find joy in Him. These 2 statements verify that the source of joy available to us comes from our relationship with Jesus, but the question asked is when does this joy appear? ![]() Explanation of the Seventh Stage Part 4Meeting the Buddha is like finding a pure gem, but being unable to receive the taste of the good Dhamma which gives rise to profit and gain is like intending to keep the gem for use in the next life. This is the type of demerit which is due to... ![]() Enough is EnoughYou want to know what did you do to deserve what has happened? And where is God in the midst of all this adversity? True relief does not come when the problem is resolved because more problems are on the way. ![]() Happy Holiday!Thanksgiving and Christmas are soon upon us. For most people they are a time of pain and difficulty for many reasons. They are family celebrations, but our families are mostly broken and the holidays remind us of this painful fact. They may remind others of their failure to confess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior -- and of the implications of that failure. For many embattled Christians the holidays bring the culture war to the front burner. ![]() The Archangels Michael, Gabriel, Raphael and UrielAn Archangel at its most basic definition is a high ranking angel.

The belief that we ourselves exist, and that other things belong to us, are, in the ultimate sense (paramattha), both wrong notions, because one cannot find nor come to know either of them.
8. The five aggregates have Belief-in-Self (Ahamkara) as their bounds of existence and as that which causes... ![]() Short Aphorisms Part 316. Liberation [Moksha] is understood to be the attainment of the unchanaing, in which there is no Self [Atta and Atman] and no Aggregates.
