While the online magazine Kyria seems to be geared toward women, this man enjoyed this article quite a bit and thought it would be a helpful read for those that are married to a non-Christian spouse.

Here’s an interesting video talking about the coming one world government that will be established before the end.

You may remember a previous post about this teenage girl. Please continue to pray for her. Her life is in danger if she returns to her home country.

Is a lack of repentance leading to hordes of false converts in the church today?

Discuss.

Sorry for the delay in posting devotionals for this week. They will be posted and scheduled in the next several hours so that they are displayed for the rest of the week.

Thanks.

Christopher Hitchens, one of the foremost proponents of atheism, was recently interviewed by Unitarian minister Marilyn Sewell. In other words, an atheist being interviewed by a Christian in name only. During the course of the interview Hitchens repeatedly puts the smackdown on Sewell’s claim that she is a Christian.

The audio of the whole interview along with a partial transcript can be found here.

Some of the nuggets from the interview. Hitchens actually knows what defines a Christian. Unfortunately Sewell has no idea.

“The religion you cite in your book is generally the fundamentalist faith of various kinds. I’m a liberal Christian, and I don’t take the stories from the scripture literally. I don’t believe in the doctrine of atonement (that Jesus died for our sins, for example). Do you make and distinction between fundamentalist faith and liberal religion?”

“I would say that if you don’t believe that Jesus of Nazareth was the Christ and Messiah, and that he rose again from the dead and by his sacrifice our sins are forgiven, you’re really not in any meaningful sense a Christian….”

“I agree with almost everything that you say. But I still consider myself a Christian and a person of faith.”

“Do you mind if I ask you a question? Faith in what? Faith in the resurrection?”

COLUMBUS, Ohio  – The Muslim parents of an Ohio girl who ran away from home claiming she feared harm for becoming Christian have rejected a deal meant to resolve the conflict.

Mohamed and Aysha Bary of New Albany, Ohio, withdrew their consent in a court filing that alleges misrepresentation in the plan approved Jan. 19.

The Barys and their daughter, 17-year-old Rifqa Bary, had agreed she would stay in foster care and they would undergo counseling instead of going to trial to determine where the girl should live.

The Barys now allege that Franklin County Children Services are permitting Rifqa to communicate with a Florida pastor and his wife who helped her run away last summer.

Please remember to pray for Rifqa and those who are escaping the trappings of man-made religion.
