Give Him a Stone. by Rev A.R.Smith Luke 11:10-11:13 Give Him a
Stone. I was raised up in the rural parts of appalachia, some
said that it would be noon before the sun would hit the ground.
Raised by hard working parents, never tiring of working from
dawn to dusk, to provide for their children. One year, my
parents moved from the home, I was born in, to another house, so
that I and my brothers and sister, would be closer to the school
we attended. We had hard times there, not really fitting in with
the rest of the students, were we poor? Not really, My dad would
rise before the sun was up, go to work and my mother would
always have breakfast on the table before we got out of bed.Our

| Article Title :: Paul's Letter to 21st Century Christians |

|
I received a letter this week that is written in Greek that I
have translated and would like to share with you. It is from
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and it is
addressed to: all my brothers and sisters living in the 21st
century. Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord
Jesus Christ.
For many years I have longed to see you. I have heard a great
deal about you and all the marvelous things you are doing.
News has reached me that your scientific and technological
advances are phenomenal. You have at your disposal automobiles
so luxurious that the average man in my day would never have
conceived such a possibility. I have heard about your ingenious

| Article Title :: How to Study the Bible, 5 Keys to Learning |
| |
|
This article was inspired by a book by E. W. Bullinger called
How to Enjoy the Bible, it was written in the early 1900's and
has inspired me to devote a lifetime of research to the Word of
God, I hope this will inspire you too.
There are a few basic elements we must state before we get
in-depth on how to study God's wonderful Word. First we must
know that there is only one requirement that is written in the
Word pertaining to studying the Word. We must rightly divide it.
II Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman
that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of
truth.
It matters little what people have thought or said the Bible
says. There have been volum (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Fellowship Forever |
| |
|
Today I would like to share with you the word "Fellowship" as
rendered from the Greek word in the New Testament in the KJV
"Koinonia". The word is from the Greek root word "Koinonos",
which is translated partaker five times, partner three times,
fellowship one time and companion one time for a total of ten
times.
The word "fellowship" (Koinonia) is used in the New Testament a
total of twenty times in eighteen verses. It is often rendered
fellowship, communion, communication and contribution. The word
koinonia often is used as the share which one has in something
or ones participation. In current vernacular, fellowship is
often used as a meeting or a get together of believers even as,

| Article Title :: Is The Person You Think About The Most Missing God's Point? |
| |
|
Matthew 22:37-39 Jesus said unto him, "Thou shalt love the Lord
thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all
thy mind." "This is the first and great commandment." "And the
second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
Question, how can you keep the greatest two commandments of God
listed in the scriptures above if you're always thinking about
yourself?
The answer is you can't!
According to these verses you should be thinking about how to
please and serve God all of the time and this includes splitting
the time you think about pleasing yourself with thinking about
and pleasing other people, which is also the second greatest
commandment.

| Article Title :: Is Your Pursuit of Money Robbing You Of Complete Fulfillment? |
| |
|
Do you think it's acceptable for people to make millions of
dollars selling us and our kids on the idea that pre-marital
sex, adultery, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, selfish ambitions,
drunkenness and things of this sort are O.K.?
I thought not, but these are the things we are most likely to
see on T.V. The new reality show craze is even causing society
to take a passive and some times condoning look at sin, while
making big bucks in the process.
Proverbs 12:14 - There is a way which seemeth right unto a man,
but the end thereof are the ways of death.
Let's take a quick look at what sin really is. It is
disobedience to any of the ten commandments of God, it is evil
or conspiring thoughts, (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Are These People Putting You In Danger Of Eternal Hell Fire? |
| |
|
Most people put a lot of effort into being like others around
them. We also tend to follow the thoughts or opinions of society
threw television, movies, books and the internet. People just
have a natural tendency to just want to fit in.
But, as believers we are under particular scrutiny, especially
by people who do not share our faith.
We should be Holy because we should reflect God's character, He
is our heavenly father, He has created us, He has chosen us as
His own, therefore we should be Holy because He wants us to be
like Him.
So instead of trying to fit into society we should be
concentrating our efforts on fitting into God's plan and
likewise getting others to fit into His plan as (read full article) |

"See I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not
perceive it? I am making a way in the desert and streams in the
wasteland." Is. 43:19
Until now, plagued by scandals, and unscrupulous business
practices, the Network marketing industry was being frowned upon
by the Christian community. Many Christians, who once believe
that involvement in this industry is an illegitimate way to earn
a living, now see it as an alternative to help alleviate
financial and funding pressure. For those who have become weary
of the ever-increasing benefit cutbacks and lay-offs in
corporate America, network marketing and affiliate programs has
become the alternative for their survival.

| Article Title :: Do You Know What It Takes To Crucify The Flesh? |
| |
|
The flesh is the part of us that resists our transformation into
the new person in Christ.
And since this is the case the devil wants to use the pleasures
of our flesh to keep us enslaved to our old habits and sinful
attitudes.
We have daily choices to live according to God's righteous
desires, and deny sin. When we use our power to choose God's way
instead of sin's way, we crucify our flesh.
God helps us crucify our flesh through the Holy Spirit so that
we may live in the newness of the Spirit.
The desires we must crucify include fornication, covetousness,
stealing, and lying plus follow the rest of the ten commandments.
As we put these things to death, we are able to then put on the
