| Article Title :: Is a World Dictator About to Appear? |
| |
| As the Plain Truth declared back in 1966, "Just as the Catholic Church once interposed her order on nations and peoples, she again is proposing to establish a ‘Christian order' which alone is able to guarantee peace. To this goal the resources of the Church now are directed.' So said the late Pope Pius in a Christmas broadcast on December 24, 1951" (Plain Truth, July 1966)... The Plain Truth also encouraged its readers to "Look for the Vatican to exert more influence in European affairs. Yugoslavia and the Vatican have resumed full diplomatic relations—a move that could lead to further ties between the Vatican and Eastern Europe.... The pope, encouraging European pol (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Is Buddhism a Religion? |
| |
| Buddhism is a teaching which has spread worldwide absorbing the culture of each country it arrived in, which has resulted in many expressions of Buddhism. Each strand, no matter how varied in nature and practice, holds a common emphasis on the impermanence of human life. The worldwide spread of Buddhism means that it is now practiced by over three hundred million people worldwide, and thus, is generally considered to be a world religion. However, its authenticity as a religion has often come under scrutiny by intellectuals in the Western world. To explore whether Buddhism can in fact be counted as a religion we must acknowledge that the main problems arise when looking for a definition of wh (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Got Goals? Did You Reach Them? |
| |
|
Most of us have goals.
Big ones, small ones. But not always do we follow through with them and that...hum…could be dangerous.
You see, within a lifetime our goals may change a little or dramatically, which is fine. The problem is when you have definite goals but can't follow through with them. It's crushing. It makes you feel miserable. As if you can't accomplish anything properly. You start something but it stays unfinished. That’s the deception we want to stay away from. It is a bad bad habit!
Here are a few tips to start fresh!
Write your goal down. I know it's simple but it works! On a calendar, on a notebook, perhaps put a reminder in your computer to pop up everyday (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Is There Really a Difference Among Believers |
| |
| Is there a difference between the Believer who goes to Church every Sunday and the one who doesn't? What about the believers who believe in water baptism and those who don't? Are we confused as a Christian population? Why all the different brands? What difference is there really among believer? Let us look at the Word of God for our answers. With this in mind consider that there is a higher calling spoke of in Philipians and that is what I would like to take a look at here in eight simple ways.The church of the "Dispensation of the Mystery" is different from all other callings in several respects. We should take note of the different aspects and study to show ourselves approv (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Dealing with Difficult People: the Idealist |
| |
| True idealists (as defined by Keirsey) make up only about 1/10th of the population, which you may think is a good thing if you’re the hard-driven, nose-to-the-grindstone, bottom-line type. Like other "difficult" types, they can make fantastic contributions to your relationship or organization if you understand how to deal with them and their lack of practicality.As Keirsey (www.keirsey.com) defines them, "educationally they go for the humanities, avocationally for ethics, and vocationally for personnel work." They're people who are guided by ideals, and are more interested in ideas than practical action. This can make them both slow out of the gate, and agitators if they th (read full article) |

| "I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I willbuild My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it." -Matthew 16:18 (NASU)The words of Jesus above spoken to Peter conveyed many meanings.They were not only an utterance of prophecy. They were meant alsoto build up and to give Peter a life of significance. Peter was aman given to impulse, a characteristic that belied an obviousneed to be esteemed.There are many like Peter, people who desire a life ofsignificance.

| Article Title :: Islam in the Workplace - suggested practice for HR personnel |
| |
| Muslims now form one of the largest religious groups in the UK. At a time when great misunderstandings and stereotypes circulate the media and society regarding the religion, it is crucial for an effort to be made at all levels to go beyond archetypal images and to begin to understand Islam and Muslims.With a population of approximately 1.5 million Muslims and growing, UK based companies are employing more and more young Muslim men and women. With this increase comes a greater need for HR practitioners to be aware of the respective cultural sensitivities. As with individuals from any background, if they do not feel comfortable and understood in their office or company, it is (read full article) |

| Islam is not the problem
Many people on religious paths are lousy advertisements for God. I'm sure that if there were some divine psychometric or behavioural screening mechanism in place, many wouldn't be permitted to be card-carrying representatives of their particular faith. A cautionary adage urges: "Don't judge the path by the people on it." In the case of Islam, it's particularly important to avoid doing so. The fact that there are, I understand, more than a billion Muslims around the world, means the chances of bad press for Islam, are pretty good. Example: The deeply ignorant evangelist, Franklin Graham, writing that Islam "is a very evil and wicked religion."
