Spiritism poses as a universal, common denominator for all religious groups, teaching the continuity of life and the eternal progression of man towards perfection in the spirit realm. The basic principle of Spiritism is the foretelling of future events or the disclosure of hidden knowledge through pretended communication with the spirits of the dead. Persons who claim to have this power of communication with the "dead" are commonly known today as Mediums. (The King James Version of the Bible designates such persons as having "familiar spirits"). It is an ancient form of deception and one of...

According to its literature, it is "the fastest growing SPIRITUAL SELF-BETTERMENT AND REFORM GROUP in the world". "Man's situation needed a solution and Scientology is that solution". Scientology claims to help man become more ABLE "and brings about greater PEACE AND HAPPINESS". The quest for this feeling of happiness becomes a major part of a ...

Who are they? And what do they believe? Christadelphians: What Do They Believe? compares the teaching of this group with basic ...

JEREMIAH lived in very troubled times. As a Prophet of God, he had a very strong message for the people of his time. Known as the “Weeping Prophet”, Jeremiah’s heart broke for his people. Rebellious and stubborn, they rushed headlong into judgment and he could do nothing to stop them. At the same time, he preached God’s Word fearlessly and without compromise in the midst of a perverse generation and there are some wonderful principles and promises in his book for our benefit. We live in parallel times to Jeremiah. The Rapture of the Church is imminent, but there is still time to ...

Christians are not immune to problems, trials and temptations and how well we know that. There are some people, however, who believe that unpleasant events in our lives are proof that there is something wrong with our faith. They assume that there is a problem in our relationship with God and they tend to correlate goodness with prosperity. This is not Biblical teaching and James gives us some clear teaching in his epistle on the subject. The Early Church in his time was a scattered and persecuted Body and James assures us that the Lord never allows anything in our lives without PURPOSE and...

31-Day Devotional. JONAH is one of the most interesting characters in the Bible. A prophet of note, he was well-known in Israel. Jewish tradition says that he was a disciple of the famous Elisha and possibly succeeded him as prophet. God called this man to prophesy against Nineveh, capital of Assyria, and call this nation to repentance. He was very reluctant to do that. Israel's enemies were his enemies and the last thing he wanted was for God to be merciful to them. He preferred that they come under judgment and disappear forever. He was unable to understand that the conversion and ...

Jesus described the "last days" very graphically. They would, He said, remind us of the Days of Noah — but they would be far worse.

"Days of Noah and the Return of Christ" takes a closer look.

LIFE'S FAT CATS is not a book about our furry friends. It deals with our emotions when we feel others are more blessed than we are. Everybody gets discouraged at some time or another. Perhaps things are not going as well as we had hoped in our lives, our homes, our family or our job, and there seems to be no end in sight. This is a very serious condition to be in because discouragement can so easily lead to depression, disillusionment, and despair. This devotional shares the story of one man who moved from discouragement to faith. Be encouraged as you meditate in Psalm 73.

Jesus Christ Is Coming Back Again The Bible is a prophetic book. It speaks of historical events in the lives of people and nations with a certainty and clarity that is unique.
