SETBACK TO RECOVERY: CAN POLITICIANS FIX THE CURRENT GLOBAL CRISIS?

“You know how to discern the face of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times” (Matthew 16.3)

The world is in the midst of a tremendous crisis. The economy shrinks at a low rate, and the unemployment’s rate is at its higher level since the great depression. Divorce rates are climbing, and moral values are under attack. Public officials become more and more unpredictable. Strife between nations tends to jeopardize peace in the world. The growth of imposters, the turning of spiritism, and the appearance of the scoffers who don’t endure sound doctrine remind us what Jesus has told his disciples about the nearness of his second coming:

“But when you hear of wars and commotions, do not be terrified; for these things must come to pass” (Luke 21.9)

“Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that the summer is near. So you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near-at the doors! Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place”(Matthew 24.32-34)

Christ is at the doors. That is the message behind all the sufferings that the world is facing today. So instead of looking for some world leaders to deliver you from the global crisis, start a better relationship with the Savior. Only Jesus when he comes back can and will restore your life. Therefore, make plan to be ready when He returns. Don’t let his second’s coming come on you unexpectedly.

    I am not really a counselor, I am a pastor, (e.g. I don’t know how). Many Christians receive this response if they do go to their pastor for help. However, it really does not make any sense. Why? It makes no sense because the words pastor and counselor are virtually synonymous. To be a pastor is to be a counselor.

    “Rasleela was in reality bhavleela, completely devoid of corporeal sensations. It was the celestial, atmik form of a gopi that used to participate in ras. Far above the carnal plane, it was a divine communion between souls (gopis) and the Supreme Soul (Krishna). Krishna Leela is one manifested as many.”

    It is amazing a land of such wealth and prosperity suffers shortages. Since it hasn’t rained this year, we have a bit of a water shortage here in what may become a permanent drought. According to some, farmers have a worker shortage so we need illegal immigrants to harvest America’s fields and orchards. The newspapers tell us there is a security shortage, with al-Qaeda daily growing in power and expertise.

    Anyone who holds to any standard of righteousness in our "culture of tolerance" is in trouble. If you say, for example, that homosexuality is a perversion, abortion is murder, sex outside of marriage is a sin, or that Jesus is the only way to heaven, get ready to be labeled. You will be categorized as "intolerant," because intolerance is not tolerated in our culture.

    We've moved so far away from the historical principles of most religious teachings. The ego has taken the discussion out of the esoteric and put it on the exoteric or externals and therein we've missed the major nutrients of the spirit.

    Over the next months I am going to be sharing the complete story of what it was like for me growing up as a Jehovahs Witness. A lot of this content was written over a year ago, as I came to terms with what my beliefs actually meant. obviously I have changed names to protect the trusting, and the not so innocent. My story isn't that unusual, in reality a large number of witnesses will go thru similar eventualities. I am hoping the choice to share this will on some level help s...

    Eighteen different Biblical versions give many varied and wrong translations when translating " foreign woman" and " the stranger who flatters with her words" In the entire Quran, the term "foreign woman" is not mentioned therein; all women are equal in respect to their rights and responsibilities regardless of race, color, location etc.

    What are the “basics” of Christian living – the most foundational activities and disciplines that God wants in our lives? For a long time, I believed that Bible study and memorization, prayer, fasting and attending church were high on that list. But is that what the Bible teaches? Or is there more?

    We heard so many false teachings about hell such as, the doctrine of eternal hell, which means a place of burning for eternity. Others said that unrighteous people who actually died are being punished in hellfire. What does the Bible teach us about this matter?
