The Heavenly Race – C H Spurgeon

This post contains a 7-minute sermon excerpt and the entire sermon. The excerpt contains an exhortation by Spurgeon wherein he suggests that we should think of our race as though we were running from a swordsman that wants to slay us.

The Global Taxman Cometh – by The New American

Annalisa Pesek. …Here are but a few facts the film uses to grab our attention. In a single year, more than 22 million new images of child pornography were posted to the web — an increase of 5,000 percent over the past five years. Moreover, the child slave trade not only has passed the illegal-arms trade, but will soon pass the drug trade.
