December's Edition focuses on
Messianic Prophecies |
|
|
One of the amazing things about the Bible is the fulfilled prophecy that it
contains. This is just one of the evidences of the supernatural origin of the
Bible. Here is just a small example of the prophecies in the Bible about
Jesus. There are many prophecies concerning Jesus on the Old Testament
that were fulfilled in the New Testament. No other book contains prophecy
like the Bible. The Koran contains one prophecy that is a self-fulfilling
prophecy. Mohammed said that he would return to Mecca and he did. The
book of Mormon contains some prophecy, however some of it was plagiarized
from the Bible by Joseph Smith and the rest of it was written by
Joseph Smith after the fact. The Bible stands alone in this area!
Think about this....the statistical probability of predicting one event
is one chance in two. Either the event will happen or it will not. When you add one
more prediction, the person would have a one in four chance of being right
on both predictions. The statistical odds against someone predicting 35
events and being 100% correct on all 35 is 1 to 34,359,738,368. That is a
36 billion, 359 million, 738 thousand, 368 to 1 against some one making
35 predictions and all of them coming true. Notice what I am saying here,
not 35 out of hundreds but 35 out of 35! That is nothing short of a miracle.

Squeamish About the War?
http://headlines.agapepress.org/archive/11/302001rck.asp
(AgapePress) - Having thumped the war drums since Sept. 11, the chattering class
is suddenly squeamish about the Northern Alliance, the putative liberators of
Afghanistan. The alliance rubbed out a number of foreign-born Taliban prisoners in
Mazar-e Sharif, and they’re giving the foreigners a rough time elsewhere in
the country. Such acts have not endeared them to the manicured mandarins of
globalism or pious Pecksniffs of the liberal press.

Fallacies About Jesus
http://www.christianarsenal.com/JesusFacts.htm
There are some easy ways to spot a cult. You do not have to learn every
doctrine of every cult to be an effective witness or to be able to recognize
a cult. There are a few key areas that you can look at that will help in
discerning a cult. For example, what a group says about the Bible, God,
salvation, man, and particularly Jesus Christ. One of the easiest ways
that a cult can be spotted is to find out what they say about who Jesus
is. The following statements are representative of the majority of false
claims that are made about Jesus. Along with these misconceptions we
have listed the truth about Jesus according what God has revealed to us
in the Bible.

God Came Near - Max Lucado
You want to follow Christ, but at times you lose sight on him on a personal
level. You may rely on the vision of a pastor, Bible study leader, friend or
spouse. But God desires more for you than a second-hand faith. He wants
you to see him for yourself. To be touched by his glory. To witness his
majesty. To know him as Friend.
