Brahma Kumaris listed as dangerous cult.

I am not going to state that these allegeations are true. My faith has been charged with much it didn't do. But it does merit looking into, and awareness.

Redemption

Redemption sweet and unobtrusive,

Quietly slipping into our lives,

Not a goad to force obedience,

But a small pink hand to wrap around our pinky.

Love poured into a cup of flesh that would one day tip in remembrance.

Grace was born today...…

The Smell of the Pine & Garland- a poem by Jeff H.

“ HERE RESTS IN HONORED GLORY AN AMERICAN SOLDIER KNOWN BUT TO GOD ”

The only rest that we have,

is your fond remembrance.

The only peace that we have is your faith.

For we don’t have a name,

To put on a marker,

Most don’t have a body,

To put in a grave.

We fought on the high roads,

And fought in the depths,

We fought in the skies,

And far out to sea.

We surveyed the…

Today

Say I love you while you may,
There might not come another day.
The "Gate of Time" on oiled hinge,
Closes silent, locked and pinned.
So say I love you while you can,
Or you might, alone, in silence stand.

Luke- A Wonderful Historian, and Part of Why I Believe in Jesus Christ.

I often say I didn't check my brain at the door as a Christian. The analysis of Luke and his writing are part of that for me. No other religion other the Judaic Christianity has such a firm footing in history. Archeology has verified an astounding number of facts in the Bible. If what we can examine is verifiable, its seems more likely the Spiritual Truths are on the mark as well.

This page had very good info on the subject. Enjoy.

Mormon Beliefs, are they Christian?

Mormon Beliefs, are they Christian?

There's a lot of discussion about Mormon beliefs. So, in order to make this easy, I will list out what Mormonism actually teaches. These are not sensationalized, and inaccurate statements.

Following documentation from Mormon authors. Finally, please understand that the Mormon Church uses Christian terms but has radically changed the meanings of those terms. So, when it says that Mormons belief in the father the son and the Holy Spirit,… Read More

Me and "Christian Cults"

To RG,

I usually accept comments on my blogs, but not this one. It is a statement of my position.

I spent over a year dealing the false assertions of our last mormon visitor. He finally showed himself by deleting his user, and compromising huge portions of our archived discussions. He saw the "writing on the wall" so to speak, and it didn't look good for his cause, so ~poof~. I worked hard on a lot of those discussions. I'm not going to waste the time here.

So… Read More

GOD: INCORPOREAL & INVISIBLE

I very seldom grab large chunks of work of the internet. Most of my contributions to RG are my own observations for what they are worth. Occasionally I stumble across a piece of work that addresses a topic currently running on RG. This piece on some of the attributes of God is very well put together, even handed, and acknowledges of rebuts opposing views articulately and simply. If you would like to review it in its original format, the url is… Read More

Let's Rock #13... More Archeological Support for Biblical History...

I made a comment that I felt there was overwhelming tangible evidence to the existance of God... Archeological/ Historical Evidence, Scientific Evidence, and (for me at least),personal impact on my life and many many that I know.

I bring one more piece of the pie. The fun part is that all the references given are in support of the Koran. Imagine how much more fantastic that this story was part of the Torah and Judeo/ Christianity long before there was a… Read More

The History of the World (Or at least Eastern Europe) According to Obama...

I was there! Kirshgoens, FRG in 1981. I know what we were doing, and what the USSR was doing. I know what my German friends said about the East, and their family stuck there. I know the old folks coming out w/ drinks and snacks when we were on manuvers, still grateful that we stopped their push East at Berlin. Obama has trashed every vet that stood the line from Hitler's death and the fall of the Berlin Wall.… Read More
