According to the author, Christians are
destined to reign. He also makes a statement that Christians
are destined to reign over Satan (does not give any biblical
reference). Christians are called to ‘resist’ Satan, but how the author
talks about ‘reign’ over Satan. He also states that Christians are
forgiven and need not plead for forgivness again. This is contradiction
to I John 1:9 and fails to give any explanation. The author
states that Satan tried to condemn believer of their sin. Truth
is known by the number of controversies it produces. Healing,
prosperity and grace are truths that Satan has hedged it with
controversies.
Yasmeen Suri - From Loss of Control To God in Control

Yasmeen Suri was born in India to a Sikh family. They moved to America when
she was a child. She didn't speak English, and unfortunately, because of
her ethnicity, she was the brunt of cruel jokes from the other
children. She says, I felt a sense of loss of control of my life. So I
thought the more I could get of knowledge and spiritual experience, the
more I would be able to control my environment and the more I would be
able to control people. I started getting into horoscopes. I started
studying about psychics and witchcraft, I would begin to have demons
reveal themselves to me on a continual basis and they would just speak
to my spirit that I had been born for a purpose and that purpose would
be fulfilled. As an adult, Yasmeen was engrossed in the occult. See how she turned her life completely around!Yasmeen Suri Shares Her Testimony Of How She Became A Christian

There are benefits and pressures of having more than one culture. On
the one hand, young diaspora Asians have the best of both worlds. Their
life experience can be seen as richer and more diverse than those who
have knowledge of only one culture. They can have bhangra and rock,
chapatis and chips, Bollywood and Hollywood. On the other hand,
they have to balance the demands of living in cultures which sometimes
conflict with each other. Some feel they don’t fully belong to any
culture, never fully accepted in either world. Former Singapore Gangster Turned Dynamic Preacher Inspires Many

A young man, slapped with all the addictions one can possibly imagine,
being freed from them by the power of the Gospel, as he testifies. Referring
to himself as a street gangster turned preacher, Victor King relates
how though he was raised in a Christian family, he was rebellious and
went on a seemly irreversibly downhill trajectory as he got involved in
a gang, picked up smoking, started skipping school, stealing,
vandalising, drinking and getting into fights. Finally he was
expelled from school at the age of 17 because of his bad attitude and
poor attendance and became a fulltime gangster. In the
ministry website where he posted his life testimony, King relates how
everything came to a head when he became a very heavy smoker, got
hooked on alcohol, was full of obscenities, got addicted to
pornography, started womanising, stayed away from home most of the
time, associated with drug addicts and ex-convicts and even got
involved in armed robberies.

As a pastor for more than 26 years, I have a desire to help everyone. But, I have learned the hard way that I cannot help every person who attends our church or who comes to me for input. The following are ten kinds of people I have identified that are so entrenched in certain habit patterns that I cannot help them advance to the next level unless they make the necessary shift in their attitude or behavior.Anil Kant - Ibadat Karo [Worship Him] Youtube Video

Laminin is a family of glycoproteins that are an integral part of the structural scaffolding in almost every animal tissue. Laminin is vital to making sure overall body structures hold together. It has four arms that can bind to four other molecules. The three shorter arms are particularly good at binding to other laminin molecules, which is what makes it so great at forming sheets. The long arm is capable of binding to cells, which helps anchor the actual organs to the membrane. "Electron microscopy reveals a cross-like shape for all laminins investigated so far." AMAZING SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY!

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary; When troubles come and my heart burdened be; Then, I am still and wait here in the silence, Until you come and sit awhile with me. You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains; You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas; I am strong, when I am on your shoulders; You raise me up... To more than I can be. You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains; You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas; I am strong, when I am on your shoulders; You raise me up: To more than I can be.
More Than Dreams - Visions and Dreams of Jesus Among Moslems

For decades, a phenomenon has been recurring in the Muslim world. Men and women – without any knowledge of the Gospel and without any contact with Christians – have been forever transformed after experiencing dreams and visions of Jesus Christ. Reports of these supernatural occurrences often come from “closed countries” where preaching the Gospel is forbidden and where converting to Christianity can invoke the death sentence. A common denominator appears to be that the dreams come to those who are seeking to know and please God. We decided to capture some of these stories in More Than Dreams - Visions and Dreams of Jesus Among Muslims - Moslems and use them as a witnessing tool to Muslims all over the world.

Missions - Measuring Depth of Commitment
- By Dr. Chris Gnanakan
- Published 07/17/2010

Mission-minded churches attempt great things for God and expect great
things from God. There are members who are good at making comments and
criticism about what is and should be happening. As a result there is
undue concern for self maintenance (cleaning nets), rather than obeying
God’s voice or meeting people’s needs. Obedience always leads to
blessing; delayed obedience is disobedience. Faith missions is simply
taking God at his word. Attempt something so great, that it’s doomed to
fail except God be in it!
Satan’s Top Ten List for Christians

Many people in the church are so emotionally incapacitated due to father
or parental wounds they do not have a healthy view of any authority in
their lives. When someone comes to Christ these emotional issues
don’t automatically go away. Unless someone intentionally points out
these areas and aids a person in repenting of their mistrust of
authority, most with these wounds will have a hard time receiving
correction from any form of spiritual authority. Satan will even plant
seeds into the minds of Christians regarding blame shifting (blaming
others for their own sins and failures, and not taking personal
responsibility) when their pastor preaches a strong message involving
correction for sin, or when a spiritual authority has to give them
correction. Some get angry and might even leave the church.
Men and Porn

At the core of consuming porn is selfishness. I will get my fix. No one
will know. It is my secret. It is what I do in private. My dad did it.
Everyone does it and I am going to as well. Porn is a fantasy
designed to do one thing - keep you completely to yourself. It is a
lie. Porn tries to tell you what sex should feel like and look like.
Porn will destroy the relationships around you. You will pull away from
reality because of this dirty little secret. As you consume porn, it
becomes your life and you will eventually lose control to addiction.
Stop now. Be done with it all. Change today because there are much
greater things than porn to give your time, money and energy to.

So maybe pastors aren't sharing their life out in the open because they
are afraid of the consequences. Let's face it- all we have in ministry
is our integrity. Once that is gone, it's gone. Most likely, if you're
caught viewing porn or are caught in your addiction, you're toast at
your job. This is what we face. Transparent living is crazy scary, but
it's the life we have been called to lead. This issue is so
"in our faces" that we can't ignore it anymore, no matter how it
affects us personally. And it will affect us personally. It's all
personal. When you uncover something that was buried for years, it
hurts. When it's a loved one, it hurts.

If you’re new to blogging, you’re probably on a steep learning curve at
the moment. Maybe you tell yourself that things will get better when
you’ve been doing it longer. There won’t be so much to learn. You’ll
have systems in place soon and everything will run smoothly. Sadly, I
think this is a myth. I’ve been using and designing for the Internet
for about 15 years, and it keeps changing. Just when you’ve got one
element sorted out, something new gets released. Or becomes obsolete.
Or mutates in 20 different directions. If you want to stay ahead in
blogging, you have to keep learning. Red Hot Temptation!

In other words, don’t be a Christian who, every time encounters a bad
situation will either blame it on God or the devil. James is trying to
say that there is some evil in us that manifests from our fleshly
nature. That is the reason why you don’t need to teach kids to lie or
steal. It's in them. According to the book of James, the source or the
genesis of temptation is evil desire! If we can tackle the root cause
with the help of the Holy Spirit then we are getting closer to our
victory! Nip it off the Bud! So then how is a desire formed? A desire is formed through our
senses. . . . . . . What we feed our mind through our senses is what causes us to
desire for the same.
