We shall speak of hope

tjbrown7

And we now commence this work under the auspices of your name, O mighty Emperor Constantine, who were the first of the Roman princes to repudiate errors, and to acknowledge and honour the majesty of the one and only true God. For when that most happy day had shone upon the world, in which the Most High God raised you to the prosperous height of power, you entered upon a dominion which was salutary and desirable for all, with an excellent beginning, when, restoring justice which had been overthrown and taken away, you expiated the most shameful deed of others. … Continue reading We shall speak of hope

Your Word

“I have given them your word. And the world hates them because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world. I’m not asking you to take them out of the world, but to keep them safe from the evil one. They do not belong to this world any more than I do. Make them holy by your truth; teach them your word, which is truth. Just as you sent me into the world, I am sending them into the world. And I give myself as a holy sacrifice for them so they … Continue reading Your Word

We take our stand

tjbrown7

Only an all powerful being is able to solve the problem of evil. It is our duty as His creation to belief He can asnopposed to believe He can’t. “The just shall live by faith” Habbakuk 2:4 But so do the unjust just not in God. Only one of the above two faiths actually honors the Creator and leads unto salvation. Here is how Arnobius answers the problem of evil: But when, overcome, we agree that there are these things, and expressly allow that all human affairs are full of them, they will next ask, Why, then, the Almighty God … Continue reading We take our stand

Are men really good?

tjbrown7

Arnobius makes a pretty cool point below but first the only Jesus that has been spreading and enduring across this planet for the last two thousand years (the Jesus of the Bible): “The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I TESTIFY OF IT, that the works thereof are evil.” John 7:7 “Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men, And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man.” John 2:24–25 “Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, YE WOULD LOVE ME: for I proceeded … Continue reading Are men really good?

The message is offensive to mankind period

tjbrown7

“Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. … Continue reading The message is offensive to mankind period

Grant pardon

tjbrown7

Does it not occur to you to reflect and to examine in whose domain you live? on whose property you are? whose is that earth which you till?11 whose is that air which you inhale, and return again in breathing? whose fountains do you abundantly enjoy? whose water? who has regulated the blasts of the wind? who has contrived the watery clouds? who has discriminated the productive powers of seeds by special characteristics? Does Apollo give you rain? Does Mercury send yon water from heaven? Has Æsculapius, Hercules, or Diana devised the plan of showers and of storms? And how … Continue reading Grant pardon
