The One-World Religion is Here – Pastor Michael Grant
The 12-minute video of this post is by Pastor Michael Grant. Therein, he explained the coming one-world government, religion and economic system. He used scripture and current events to provide a meaningful and understandable foundation for Christians to build upon. [Since even the most prominent theologians of the church, past and present, disagree widely on the subject of ‘end times,’ it is difficult to draw conclusions about that period of time. However, as a Bible student, I believe that Pastor Grant’s points are valuable to understanding any of the major views.]

Mainstream, seeker friendly churches also err greatly. So, please spend 5 minutes of your time and get the correct answer.

I Asked the Lord That I Might Grow Words: John Newton [song and lyrics]
This John Newton song is introduced by one of the singers via relevant history of Newton that led him to write it and his most famous hymn, Amazing Grace. The lyrics contradict a lot of 20th and 21st century evangelicalism, as does the Bible, especially in light of Paul’s epistles.

James 1: 2-11 – Trials – Pastor Patrick Ramsey
This post contains a sermon from James 1: 2-11 on God’s purpose in sending trials and how to deal with them such that you might begin to know Christian maturity, fullness… being made perfect. Since all Christians will encounter trials from God to grow their faith, it is critical that you know how to go through these trials; upon what you should focus and why that ought to be your focus. This sermon makes those things very clear.
