487: God in the Chinese Language
God in the Chinese Language There are a few different words used in the Chinese language to speak about God and heaven. Each one, by it's etymology tells us something about the spiritual Sovereign that is common to the ancient Chinese and the Hebrew Scriptures. God - El Shaddai Emperor Shun worshiped ShangTi, literally, the heavenly emperor. It is interesting to note the phonetic similarity between this Chinese identification of God and the Hebrew, Shaddai (Almighty). God - Creator God is also represented in the Chinese language by the word Shén. This word may be written in two different forms (see to the right and below). The etymology of this image reveals details about God's work in creation. On the left side of the character, we see an image meaning to REVEAL or DECLARE. Over and over in the Biblical creation account, we are told that "...God said..." (Genesis 1:3, 6, 9, 11, 14, 20, 24, 26, NKJV). The Psalmist declared of God's work of creation: By the word of the LORD the ... ...

489: Does God Approve Instrumental Music in church?
The prayer wheel is used by spinning the "wheel" around in a clockwise direction while saying your specific mantra or religious sayings. When the wheel is spun around in a clockwise direction, it is said that these prayers are sent out into the world. The large one is used in temples and can contain millions of prayers. The small one is for personal use. C.H. Spurgeon: "We might as well pray by machinery as praise by it."

490: Outrageous Claims Made For The Pope!
Not only are outlandish claims, such as those above, made regarding the authority of the pope, but he is addressed by various terms (Supreme Pontiff, Holy Father, etc.) which belong only to God. No such terms were given to a mere man in the holy Scriptures. The term "Holy Father" is used only once in God's word. It is used by Jesus in John 17:11 as He prayed to God the Father. For a mere man to assume the authority and titles which belong only to God, is surely the height of arrogance and blasphemy. If not, why not? The New York Catholic Catechism, under: Pope, says, "The Pope takes the place of Jesus Christ on earth...by divine right the pope has supreme and full power in faith and morals over each and every pastor and his flock.

496: Psychiatry is Anti-Christian, Atheistic and Humanistic
Introduction: Jesus Christ created man in 6 literal 24 hours days about 6000 years ago. 2000 years ago, God became man, walked among us and died upon a cross to shed his blood to save us from eternal damnation in hell because of our personal sin. We are Bible believing Christians washed in the blood of Christ. We invite you to join us in being born again through faith in Jesus Christ, repentance of your sins, confession of Jesus to others, water baptism for the forgiveness of your sins and a life of willing obedience to God. You will then be cured of your sin problem by Jesus, the "Doctor of your soul". The Bible has much to say about insanity and mental illness. This will often come as a huge surprise to gospel preachers and Christians alike who are victims of one of the most successful false advertising campaigns in history at the hands of the mental health industry and pharmaceutical companies.

Word, why are there no Christians in some countries? If the Holy Spirit operates directly on some, and not on others, God becomes a respecter of persons. The Bible, however, says that he is not (Acts 10:34-35). No one in the New Testament ever prayed for a direct, miraculous operation of the Holy Spirit. If men are converted without the Word of God today, how are we to distinguish between the claims of so many contradictory groups who claim to have the Spirit? (I John 2:3-4). If the Holy Spirit operates and converts separate from the Word of God, how can we be judged by the Word in the last day? (John 12:48). A direct operation takes away personal responsibility and accountability. A direct operation of the Spirit would contradict the plain passages of the Bible which tell us the gospel is the power to save (I Corinthians 1:21; Romans 1:16; John 6:44-45). The Holy Spirit is promised only to sons of God, those who obey him, never to alien sinners (Galatians 4:6; Acts 5:32; Acts 2:38). ... ...

499: The Creation Account
The significance of this is enhanced with the knowledge that the details herein were recorded in the Chinese language before Moses wrote Genesis. Two of the Chinese words for God (see God in the Chinese Language), Ling and Shén, picture God's role in creation. Ling shows the Spirit of God covering over the waters (Genesis 1:2), and the three persons of ... Bring Forth Three times (Genesis 1:11, 20, 24, KJV), the Bible account of creation uses the phrase "bring forth." Combined, these texts reveal several things which were brought forth in the sea, on the land, and in the air. The Chinese word sheng means to BRING FORTH or LIFE. It is suggested by Kang and Nelson, authors of The Discovery of Genesis, that the three horizontal strokes in sheng represent the heaven, earth, sea and the creatures and vegetation brought forth in them.2 The radical on the left side of sheng is important. It is called p'ieh, and appears to be used as an abbreviated form of sheng in several other words to ... ...

500: Lesson 20: Preaching In Worship
The word of God is the only truth that will make us free so we can go to heaven. The word of men cannot make us free, but will cause us to be lost. All things preached must come from the word of God. We are told in 1 Peter 4:11, "If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God." The pulpits of our land ring out with what speakers personally think and believe. But how do we know whether a preacher is preaching from God's word or from his own opinion? We must do as the church at ... Today God does not immediately deal with sin as he did then, but will deal with it in the Judgment. Claiming glory that only belongs to God is a very serious matter. But why do men do it today? Also the classification of "clergy" and "laity" is foreign to the word of God. It is another invention of man. We are warned in Romans 12:3 that a person is, "Not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think." Sometimes a preacher is held up on a "pedestal" and idolized. When some preachers leave a ... ...
