451: Reflections and Inquiries Concerning the Virtues of Tar Water ...
Reflections and Inquiries Concerning the Virtues of Tar Water (Turpentine) George Berkeley (Bishop of church) 1744 AD Click to View Click to View Click to View See also: History of Psychiatry homepage Introduction: In 1744 AD, George Berkeley, Bishop of the church at Cloyne, hailed the use of drinking the distilled acid of tar (turpentine) that became known as "Tar Water". It cured almost everything, including of insanity (hysteria). "A cure for foulness of blood, ulceration of bowels, lungs, consumptive coughs, pleurisy peripheumony, erysipelas, asthma, indigestion, cachectic and hysteric cases [insanity], gravel, dropsy, and all inflammations." He learned about this cure from the American Narragansett Indians. You mixed tar with water then after a few days, you skim off the clear liquid and drink several cups per day. Even John Wesley, founder of Methodism, raved about its successes in curing disease. It became so common that you could order "Tar-Water" in the local taverns. By 1830, ... ...

454: The Old Testament Canon: The council of Jamnia: 90 AD
The council of Jamnia (The Old Testament Canon) 90 AD A conservative, bible believing perspective! God's providence gave us the 27 book New Testament Canon, not the church. God, not men decided the canon. This providence does not mean that church leaders were inspired in their selecting the canon, only that God had his eye on the scriptures the whole time and brought about His will to form the Bible we see today! The council of Jamnia: 90 AD Go to: "Canon of the Bible" Home Page The council of Jamnia: 90 AD Introduction: In 90 AD, the council of Jamnia was unimportant in determining the Jewish Canon. It was not a major council like Nicea, but a small collection of rabbinic Jewish leaders. They did not gather to determine the canon of the Old Testament, but rather limited their discussion to the books of Ecclesiastes and the Song of Solomon. Roman Catholics and Orthodox leaders misrepresent history when they make claims that the Canon of the Old Testament was not fixed until the ... ...

456: What will happen at the End Of The World?
What will happen at the End Of The World? The specific date as to when the world will come to an end is not known by man. The Apostle Peter says in II Peter 3:10, "But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise and the elements shall melt with fervent heat. The earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up". This event could not come unexpectedly as a thief in the night if the date were known. God will not reveal the date to man. Two big events will take place at the end of the world, according to Peter. First the heavens shall pass away with a great noise. This means the atmosphere will pass away with one big explosion. And second, the elements shall melt with fervent heat. Man knows approximately 105 elements in science. The great majority of these are called natural elements. For example, hydrogen and oxygen are well known elements. The proper combination of the two parts hydrogen and one part ... ...

457: Sola Scriptura was not invented by 16th century Protestants, ...
"The truth of the matter is ... that the doctrine of sola Scriptura is not scriptural. In other words, the claim that the Bible is the sole source of authority for Christian life and doctrine is not found in the Bible." (THE WAY: What Every Protestant Should Know About the Orthodox Church, Clark Carlton, 1997, p 117) "The irony is that the principle by which the Reformers sought to return to the purity of the early Church was itself unknown to the early Church. The idea of sola Scriptura was an invention of the sixteenth century. No Father or council of the early Church ever asserted that the Scriptures, in and of themselves, with-out any reference to the Church, are the all-sufficient rule of faith. The Reformation principle of sola Scriptura was an invention of the Reformation itself. ... This means that from the Day of Pentecost to October 31, 1517-a span of approximately 1488 years-the kind of theology which Protestantism exalts as being "authentic" could not have existed.

458: Lesson 19: Singing In Worship (Part 4)
Master index of 23 studies: "Determine if you worship in Spirit and Truth!" Lesson 19 Singing In Worship (Part 4) Since Christ never authorized mechanical instruments of music in the New Testament to be used in worship of the church, we might ask, when did man "take it upon himself" to start using them in trying to worship God? It is a historical fact according to early church history, no mechanical instruments of music were ever used in church worship until about the year 670 A.D. At this time the church at Rome introduced an organ which produced such disturbances that it was removed. It was not until about 775 A.D. that it was introduced again, but this time it was kept, even with many people objecting. The instrument was not accepted by many churches for many years. Even in the 13th century Thomas Aquinas, a noted Catholic scholar, wrote against its use. This showed that even by the 13th century the instrument had not gained full acceptance. Men wanted to have it their way with no ... ...

459: The $1,100,000 Miracle Challenge
A Laurel County church service ended in tragedy Sunday, when an attendee was struck by a large timber rattlesnake. Linda F. Long, 48, succumbed to the snake's venom little more than three hours after she was bitten on the cheek. She was pronounced dead at the University of Kentucky Medical Center at 10:50 p.m. Nov. 5. The snake bite was listed as her official cause of death. Laurel County Sheriff's Detective Brad Mitchell is still investigating whether Long was holding the snake when she was attacked. The incident happened at East London Holiness Church, located on Smith-Brewer Road, off KY 229. Authorities were notified by hospital personnel, after Long was taken to Marymount Medical Center. She was flown from Marymount to UK, where she later died. It has been confirmed church members were handling the snake as part of the service, Mitchell said. Though Kentucky law defines handling snakes as a class B misdemeanor, punishable by a fine no less than $50 and not to exceed $100, no ... ...

460: Conclusion to the 500 year historical overview:
However, this all changed at the time when King Henry VIII divorced his wife and married Anne Boleyn. The recent collapse of Feudalism drove the poor into the cities as beggars and the Renaissance and the Enlightenment had just dawned. The Roman Catholic church was rife with corruption and indulgences triggered the Protestant Reformation with the aid of Martin Luther. When the Pope rightly condemned Henry for divorcing his wife, Henry outlawed the Roman Catholic church in England, ceased all church property and make himself the pope of his new Church of England. This effectively destroyed the ability of the 15,000 "parishes" [local churches] to functioned as a benevolence network to support the poor. With the collapse of feudalism and the destruction of the church, the number of poor beggars in the cities of England skyrocketed and the king was partly to blame! Poor laws were created by Henry's successors that outlawed begging, but provided food and shelter in workhouses - a medieval ... ...

461: Why Are There So Many Different Churches?
In Matthew Chapter 16:18, our Lord made a very strange statement when He said, "Upon this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it." Notice in this passage that the term church is singular, not plural. Jesus did not say that He would build his churches, but rather simply that He would build His church. Listen to the passage again. "Upon this rock, I will build My church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against IT." Again in the book of Ephesians, the Apostle Paul wrote, "That the church is the body of Christ, and that there is only one body." Ephesians 1:22,23 & 4:4-6. A simple reading of the New Testament reveals that in bible times, there was only one church, and that all faithful Christians were a part of that one great body of believers (I Corinthians 12:12-13). Although the term churches is occasionally used in the New Testament to refer to a plurality of individual congregations in different locations, such as the seven churches of ... ...

462: Does the RC church have more authority than the Bible?
With reference to its ownership, He is its purchaser (Acts 20:28). Regarding its completeness, He is its fulness (Eph. 1:22-23). Christ alone is the foundation and head of His church; He has full and absolute dominion over it. He has all authority both in heaven and on earth. Man's responsibility is to humbly submit to His will. James Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Baltimore, in his book, "The Faith of Our Fathers, on page 82 says, "Jesus, our Lord, founded but one Church, which he was pleased to build on Peter. Therefore, any church that does not recognize Peter as it foundation stone is not the Church of Christ, and therefore cannot stand, for it is not the work of God." As we have shown, the Word of God declares plainly that Jesus Christ is the only foundation on which the church is built. It ordains no other; it allows no other. "For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ." (1 Cor. 3:11). Thus, any church which does not recognize Christ as its ... ...

"The medieval church sold indulgences, a practice that drove Martin Luther to rebel, leading to the Reformation... "The pope said individual sinners would be granted 'plenary indulgences," a full pardon for sins as opposed to a shortening of the time spent in purgatory...He included personal acts of penitence or local charity as a way of earning an indulgence.

Deception Exposed: To quote Anthony Buzzard as proof that trinity is unbiblical, without telling the reader that the guy is a close to a Christadelphian, fails to signal the reader that it is an act of self quoting!

472: The Roman Catholic view of Marriage is flawed, incomplete and ...
Hypocritically, the Roman Catholic church actually teaches birth control is OK, as long as it involves nothing artificial like condoms, pills etc. The average Roman Catholic married woman is instructed to use the rhythm method where she takes her body temperature to determine the day she ovulates. Then she avoids sex for two days before and after her ovulation day. But this is not only hypocritical double talk, since birth control is the act of having sex without the desire for children, it contradicts the entire foundation upon which the Roman Catholic church forbade birth control in the first place: There are only two purposes of marriage. Since the Pope teaches the only time you can have sex is to make children, then the only time a Catholic woman could have sex, is during her "three fertile days" of the month. The Roman Catholic position on birth control is shown to be silly and outrageous because Catholic "pew dwellers" generally ignore such man made rules from leaders, who ... ...

473: Could mass murder Jeffrey Dahmer get to heaven before YOU?
He was immersed in water for the remission of his sins on May 10, 1994. He continued to study the Bible every week in prison until the day of his murder, Nov 28, 1994. One TV report quoted Dahmer as saying that he was at peace with himself and God, just two weeks prior to his murder. Now I am not playing down the horrendous sins that Dahmer committed. But the real qustion is; could Dahmer go to heaven? Could God forgive him for what he did? I must admit that when I first heard this bizarre twist of events, that I had no problem believing God could forgive. My problem was believing that someone like Dahmer could truly repent of his sins. The Jews on Pentecost asked Apostle Peter after he convicted them of murdering Jesus Christ, "What shall we do?" Peter replied to them, "Repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus for the remission of your sins" Acts 2:37-38. Which sin was worse? Dahmer's or the murder of the sinless Christ?

478: Propositions Concerning Animal Magnetism, Franz Anton Mesmer ...
There are many modern images of mesmerism in today's culture, like the way the Emperor from Star Wars, zapped Luke with electricity coming from his hands. Even today's hypnotists mislead audiences that they possess some inherent power they are able to transmit from their hands to the person being hypnotized. Since hysteria is all in the mind, Mesmer found a deceptive, but effective cure in Mesmerism. The placebo and nocebo effects are well documented forms of simple hypnotism, which is nothing more than the power of suggestion. In Acts 8, Simon the sorcerer was called "the great power of god". However when he saw the apostle Peter lay his hands on a man and impart one of the 9 supernatural powers listed in 1 Cor 12, Simon converted to Christianity and gave up his "Mesmerism".

480: Official creed of the Unity/Unitarian Church
... Many of us have been bombarded since childhood with the teaching that we are miserable sinners, resulting from the "fall of Adam", and the implication has been that an entire lifetime would not be sufficient time to eradicate the taint of our sinfulness. Life After Death: Unity defines heaven and hell as conditions in the here and now. They are not places where people go to spend eternity. Rather, many in Unity believe in a form of reincarnation. After death the soul is believed to leave the body, and to live again in another human body. This is/was a common belief among: present day Eastern religions the early Christian Church prior to the Council of Constantinople in 533 CE the Essenes, one of the three Jewish sects while Jesus was alive. Unity cites references from the Christian Scriptures which show that the concept of reincarnation was common during Jesus' time. In the Gospels of Matthew and Mark , John the Baptist is referred to as the reincarnation of Elijah. In Matthew, some of ... ...

Master index of 25 studies: "Determine your salvation" Lesson 22 The Lord's Church (Part A) There is one other thing that concerns our salvation that I would like for us to look at in the Bible. In response to Peter's confession to Jesus in Matthew 16:16 that, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God". Jesus then says in Matthew 16:18, "On this rock I will build My church." To whom was this church to belong? "My" is possessive, which shows the church belongs to Jesus. How many churches did Jesus say He was going to build? He said He was going to build "My church", which is singular not plural. The Lord only promised to build His one church. In Ephesians 4:4-6 there are seven ones listed: "There is one body, and one Spirit, even as you were called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all who is above all, and through all, and in you all."

482: 4 Key Words To A Happy Home!
But to create and preserve the happiness of the home requires certain qualities and attitudes which may be designated by four key words. The first and most important of these is LOVE. Ideally it is an unselfish love that brings a man and woman together to form a home, and ideally, it is love which increases that happiness of the home with children. The love which binds a family together is partly an impulse of nature, but in the Christian home, it is far more unselfish than a mere natural impulse. In Ephesians 5:25-31, the Apostle Paul says, "husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church and gave himself up for it; that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word, that he might present the church to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but it should be holy and without blemish.

487: The Bible & How to Solve Family problems!
Only when we are willing to reveal our burdens, only when we are truly sensitive to the burdens of others, only in a relationship of genuine openness can we "Fulfill the law of Christ". It is a truism that you cannot really love another person unless you know that person's needs and help fill those needs. Yet, too often people fail to reveal their needs to members of their own family. Too often, others are not listening with sufficient attention to notice the needs of others. It is not always wise to "smooth things over". There are worse situations than conflict: hidden resentments are worse; silent bitterness is worse; hypocrisy is worse. When the Apostle Paul had a grievance against Peter, he "withstood him to the face" (Galatians 2:11-14). More face-to-face frankness in the right spirit would help many a parent-child relationship and many a marriage. In Matthew 18:15-17, Jesus said that a person who has been wronged should go to the one who offended him and discuss the matter ... ...

488: Lesson 20: Infants Are Not Lost
Our Lord says in Mark 16:16, "He who believes and is baptized will be saved." Here one of the prerequisites of being saved is to believe, which is impossible for an infant to do. Also in Acts 8:36-37 the question was asked, "See here is water; what hinders me from being baptized?" And the answer is given in the next verse: "And Philip said, if you believe with all your heart you may." Here we see the condition that must be met before a person can be baptized is that he must believe with all his heart. Can an infant do this? No. In Acts 2:38 (KJV) the apostle Peter told a group of people, who had asked what they should do, to "Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins." What is the requirement found here that we must do before we can be baptized? Repent. Can an infant repent? It would be absurd to think that an infant could believe or repent, but it is just as absurd to think that an innocent infant, who is without sin, must be ... ...

C. The Roman Catholic church admits baptism by immersion was practiced till 1311 AD: "Baptism took place by immersion in ancient times." (New Interpretation of the Mass, p. 120). "Catholics admit that immersion brings out more fully the meaning of the sacrament, and that for twelve centuries it was the common practice." (Question Box, p. 240). "Baptism used to be given by placing the person to be baptized completely in the water: it was done in this way in the Catholic Church for 1200 years." (Adult Catechism, pp. 56-57). "The church at one time practiced immersion. This was up to the thirteenth century. The Council of Ravenna, in 1311, changed the form from immersion to pouring." (Our Faith and the Facts, p. 399). C. Today the Roman Catholic baptizes by sprinkling and admits the change: "How would you give baptism? I would give baptism by pouring ordinary water on the forehead of the person to be baptized..." (My Catholic Faith, p 270) "The present mode of pouring arose from the many ... ...

493: Adultery and the Bible
The seventh of the Ten Commandments, which God spake in the long ago, "Thou shalt not commit adultery" Exodus 20:14. This has always been God's law. We are told in I John 3:4, that sin is the transgression of God's law, therefore, to commit adultery is to transgress God's law, and therefore, sin. Not only has God forbidden adultery, but the son of God himself said, "Whoso looketh on a woman to lust after her, hath committed adultery with her already in his heart" Matthew 5:28. If the adulterous thought is sin, surely the adulterous act is sin. The Holy Spirit through the inspired apostle has told us plainly that adultery is a sin. Peter described some sinners of his day as having "eyes full of adultery, that cannot cease from sin" II Peter 2:14. Paul warned the Corinthians to "flee fornication" I Corinthians 6:18. We are living in an age where sin is portrayed as a mere illness of the body or mind; when sin is denied or laughed off, when sin is rationalized as merely doing one's own ... ...

It originates in God's grace, is achieved by the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, and is personally received by faith. saving faith includes repentance, which activates obedience and good works through love - all produced by the Holy Spirit within. The regenerate Christian is obedient to the terms of the gospel, to the words of Christ, and to the enduring law of God summarized in the Ten Commandments. All the commandments remain as standards of holiness, including observance of the seventh-day Sabbath. all people who have trusted Christ unto obedience are members of the spiritual body, the church of God. The mission of the church is to proclaim the gospel, introduce others to the Lord, teach them to obey His Word, and nurture spiritual growth in all believers. Jesus Christ instituted two ordinances for the church that confirm faith in Him: baptism by immersion and the Lord's Supper, accompanied by footwashing.
