Salvation… Who Chooses Who? By Gary Amirault Did you know that our minds are actually hard-wired to lie for us and then give us a treat when we accept the lie? Yes, Dr. Westin and his team from Emory University, have discovered we are not as […]

Does God Over Come Good With Evil? 1. As we are required to love our enemies, may we not safely infer that God loves his enemies? If God loves his enemies, will he punish them more than will be for their good? Would endless punishment be for the good of […]
If eternal hell fire was a reality don’t you think Christ and the apostles would have spread the word to everyone not just to the Jews right at the beginning? What a travesty if Jesus, who supposedly came to save the entire world told His disciples to skip the Gentiles and Samaritans […]
Transformation of the Soul By Gary Amirault Recently, I was doing some studying into the various processes in nature that are useful in describing the processes God uses to transform the carnal, fleshy person that we are born as into becoming spiritual children of God. I came across a good […]
Ethics Sometimes in the name of country, flag, pride, nationalism, duty, we don’t think through our values.

We can actually become or produce blind killers […]

OBAMA:
I find it hard to believe that my God would consign four-fifths of the world to hell. I can’t imagine that my God would allow some little Hindu kid in India who never interacts with the Christian faith to somehow burn for all eternity. That’s just not part of my religious makeup.
Part of the reason I think it’s always difficult for public figures to talk about this is that the nature of politics is that you want to have everybody like you and project the best possible traits onto you. Oftentimes that’s by being as vague as possible, or appealing to the lowest common denominators. The more specific and detailed you are on issues as personal and fundamental as your faith, the more potentially dangerous it is.
Faith, Trust and Patience, powerful tools for movingthrough life.
