7 Beneficial Things Pastors Do for Their Congregations

Image
Many times this is not the case. The truth is that many of the most effective pastors are those who listen very closely to the hearts of their congregations. This means that they find ways to encourage members of their flock to talk about their lives, their hopes, and their dreams, their struggles, and their successes. They also help their congregations to take ownership of their own lives by learning about what it means to be a member of a Christian congregation and making sure that everyone knows what to expect from their new leader. Another one of the biggest ways that congregations can benefit from a pastor is through their ability to reach out to others outside the Congregations. It is amazing the many people who are able to be members of these Christian communities because they are not afraid to open up about their problems. It is important to understand that no one should have to go through life without knowing how to feel comfortable talking to someone about any problem. The...

America in Prophecy: What You Need to Know About

Image
Is America in Prophecy? That is the title of the well-written new book, written by Robert Kiyosaki, an author, and columnist who is well known in the business world. You may have heard of him and you will be wondering what he has to say about America in Prophecy? In America in Prophecy, Robert Kiyosaki explains why the United States is presently in its current state and offers some insights into what the future holds for America. The reasons behind the troubles in our country are obvious to most people but it is difficult to figure out the best course of action to move our country forward. Robert Kiyosaki shows why America has been able to stay afloat during its financial crisis with its budget surplus and the resulting money it uses to create jobs and fuel economic growth. Our strength as a nation stems from a solid economy that we should be proud of, but at the same time, there are some blind spots that can be exploited. It is in the best interest of our country to exploit tho...

What Will Happen on Last Days?

Image
"What Will Happen on Last Days?" is a short but profound film by Sofia Coppola. This story of faith reverts back to the old world mysticism. As a mother, I found this short to be extremely touching and sad as I watched it. The short starts with a narration from the character Elijah-that was a young man who was a representative of God in the last days. This vision is told to a group of three young children who are all descendants of Joseph in the book of Genesis. The film then pans over a wedding that has been conducted for their grandmother. Now, the older woman, Isabel, has moved out of the way in order to face the pains of her illness. But one of the people in her house is not sharing in this view and appears to be preoccupied with his work. He suddenly begins telling his past to a few of the kids at the scene and asks for help from them. And after telling them about a vision that he had that was told to him by the Lord, he appears to be taking his life. But when t...

7 Warnings in the Bible People Don't Take Seriously Enough

Seven Warnings in the Bible About the End Times You're probably familiar with the seven warnings in the Bible. But did you know that you can read seven warnings in the Bible about the end times? Each of the verses in the Bible is going to tell you something different, but all of them are telling you the same thing. And when they say the end is nigh, you better pay attention because the warning about the end times is coming right at you. According to the book of Daniel, when the Son of Man comes he will cast seven devils out of every gate, which is the eighth gate, and they will drive the false prophet out of Jerusalem. The seventh one is like a shooting star that will fly away into heaven. So this is another warning in the Bible about the end times. It also warns us about the false prophet, which is going to show up and start taunting God's people with false teachings. There are also other Christian books about end times you can read to learn more about it. According...

Bible Verses About End Of The World

Image
Bible Verses About End of the World The Bible has a lot of scriptures about End of the World and Its End is nigh, but what do these Bible verses really mean? Why do they say that the End of the World is near? Why is the end of days foretold in the Bible? These are very common questions. You have to realize that the question of what the Bible says about the End of the World, is not about whether we should believe these verses. That would be self-aggrandizing. All humans who believe that the End of the World is near, all agree that Jesus Christ will return to Earth, and He has promised that He will return with power and glory. On the other hand, there are some believers who do not believe the End of the World is near, and therefore they are trying to protect themselves from being punished by God for rejecting His coming. However, the Bible does say that their protection is futile. You can find many useful books on end times online to get a more in-depth idea of this revelati...

7 Cautionary Warnings Regarding Last Days From the Bible

7 Warning Signs Regarding Last Days in the Bible There are seven warning signs regarding the last days in the Bible that we should be aware of. They may sound unbelievable to us now, but it's good to be alert for any of these and we are going to look at each one of them one by one in this article. The first of these seven warning signs is to beware of false prophets who would give you a false counsel. This warning comes from Joel 3:16, where Joel warns the Israelites not to trust prophets who tell them they will be taken up into the heavens or that the world is going to end soon. You can't make stuff up and if you do, you are looking at a false prophet. The second of these seven warning signs is the tribulation. This is the time of the Second Coming when God will be pleased to gather His people together and deal with them on their problems. For those who believe, there is hope that Jesus will return and rule over His people, just as He did over Egypt and Babylon. For t...
