• See the Dramatic Reenactment of Jesus’ Birth in Mark Burnett’s Epic ‘The Bible’ History Channel Series

  December 12, 2012 at 2:10pm

  In reply to IAM SAVED, who wrote:

  ““Mary remained a virgin”??? I guess Jesus’ brothers and sisters all had virgin births too?

  Matthew 13:55-56 – Is not this the carpenter’s son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brothers, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? 56 And his sisters, are they not all with us?

  End quote. This passage cannot be taken at face value. The word “brother,” or “sister” was used in ancient Jewish society to describe any close relative, or in this case, ‘step brothers or step sisters.’ Nowhere in Scripture does it ever say that so and so was the son or daughter of Mary, the mother of Jesus. Nowhere does anyone but Jesus ever refer to Mary as “mother.” Also, if one maintains that James et al, were truly the brothers and sisters of Jesus, then why did Jesus break the old established Jewish custom of remanding his mother into the care of John, his youngest disciple? While he was dying on the cross, Jesus said to John, and by extension the world, “Behold thy mother.” -

  Joh_19:27 After that, he saith to the disciple: Behold thy mother. And from that hour, the disciple took her to his own.

  If James was truly Jesus’ full biological brother, and Mary his biological mother, he would have been entrusted with her care, not John

  Yes, Mary remained a virgin throughout her entire life, and she bore only one biological child – Jesus of Nazareth.

  Ministers of Hate. They are diseased, brainwashed, ignorant people. Their very existence constitutes proof of the fact that even the devil can cite Scripture.

• Chick-fil-A Dubbed ‘Hate Mongers’ After President Says They Oppose Gay Marriage

  July 20, 2012 at 4:06pm

  It takes courage to speak out on behalf of what we all know is morally right. The swishbuckler Gay Stormtroopers, with Obama in the lead, are again seeking to intimidate, bully, and silence dissidents.
  Vote this creep out of office in November. Reclaim your media, which is anti-life and un-American

• Suspect in ‘Dark Knight Rises’ Shooting Identified

  July 20, 2012 at 3:56pm

  The real blame for the actions of lunatics like this rests upon the individual – and Hollywood and the whorish media sluts – who play the race card every time a Caucasian commits a violent crime. Bring back the HUAC! We need another Joseph McCarthy to rise to the forefront and clean out the media’s Augean stables. Hollywood and the media ought to be held co-responsible for these events, because they have been suffusing the public with irresponsible films and subversive propaganda for years. Gory films, gore fests, doting on negativity, pornography, glamorizing violence and mayhem – stirring up racial discord – they bear a huge responsibility for all of this, and yet they are not held accountable. Instead, the Obama tyrants seek to disarm law abiding citizens and deprive us of the right to defend ourselves and our families. The first act of a tyrant is to disarm the people! The propaganda will do its insidious work and the intent of the government is clear. Will Americans wake up and smell the rancid coffee before it is too late?

• See This Atheist Blogger’s Stunning Announcement That She’s Converting to Catholicism

  June 19, 2012 at 4:14pm

  In reply to IAMPRAYING4YOU – who wrote that Catholicism is a man-made religion – open your eyes – and open a few “credible” history books – the man who founded the Catholic, i.e., universal Church is none other than Jesus Christ Himself. The Church did not arise from the muddled theology of apostate Catholic priests like Luther, Calvin, Wycliffe, Arius, Nestorius, etc., but from the pages of the New Testament itself. In this day and age, there is no excuse for ignorance concerning the long history of Catholicism, and how it has weathered persecution since the the times of the Apostles and their anointed successors. This woman’s conversion to the most ancient and holy faith of the apostles was wrought by none other than Christ Himself – who confirms the fact that He founded His Church upon a rock, and that the ‘gates of hell itself will not prevail against it.” What a striking validation of Christ’s commission to the Apostles on the day He established His Church in Mt 16 -

  (Mat 16:18) And I tell you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

  (Mat 16:19) I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”

  Notice that when Christ uses the word ‘you’ in the above passages, each and every time it is in the singular form – not plural. Thus, Peter was to lead the Church into

• Civil Rights Leader Resigns From NAACP National Board Over Gay Marriage Endorsement

  God bless this pastor! However, he is not the one who should have resigned. The members who voted to endorse same sex mockeries of marriage should and been shown the door and booted out of it.

• ‘Heart-Broken’ Black Pastors Plea for Obama to Meet With Them & Change His Mind on Gay Marriage

  June 7, 2012 at 3:31pm

  The fact that 95% of black Americans registered and eligible to vote cast their vote for Obama is disturbing. However, these pastors are to be commended for speaking out on what is right according to the tenets of their religion. I think the underlying message here is that Obama will forfeit their vote if he does not rescind his views on same sex mockeries of marriage. However that may be, his word is not to be trusted. Morally, and theologically, same sex mockeries of marriage are on a comparable footing with Euthanasia and Abortion, although the latter are far more grave due to the inherent lethal consequences of their implementation. Politicians or Supreme Court members who advocate or uphold these criminal policies ought to be ousted from office. Insofar as abortion and birth prevention are concerned, I would think this would be a top priority among black pastors, as the black community has been targeted for ‘Gendercide’ by the abortionists and advocates of population control – i.e., suppression. As such Gendercide is non-specific. It is, after all, a small step from Gendercide to Genocide. Any gender will do when it is marked for extinction. It is time for people to reassess their priorities here. Those who abandon their religious and moral obligations to God, self, and country will have played a key role in bringing about the reign of hell on earth.

  Did they use this guy as the model for the character of “Crackhead” on the PJ’s? Good riddance to his pseudo-Church.

• Shock Video: Christian Pastor Preaches That the Government Should Kill Gays

  May 31, 2012 at 5:11pm

  In reply to girlnurse.

  I think it is wise to bear in mind that the ultimate purpose these stringent laws served in the Old Testament was to set the Israelite people aside and make of them ‘a holy nation’ …i.e., in preparation of the birth of the Messiah, Jesus Christ – the Word of God made flesh. God Himself chose the Israelite nation as the pipeline through which the Messiah would be born of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Hence, it was absolutely necessary to preserve them from the terrible stain of heinous sins such as homosexuality, bestiality, and other vices. In a theological sense, a clearer condemnation of homosexuality will not be found anywhere else in the entire Bible!

  In reply to DoctorRon.

  It has been my experience that people who promote homosexuality are usually closet homosexuals or devoid of any moral sense whatsoever.
