The True Hero Of The Titanic
John Harper was born to a pair of solid Christian parents on May 29th, 1872. It was on the last Sunday of March 1886, when he was thirteen years old that he received Jesus as the Lord of his life. He never knew what it was to “sow his wild oats.” He began to preach about four years later at the ripe old age of 17 years old by going down to the streets of his village and pouring out his soul in earnest entreaty for men to be reconciled to God. As John Harper’s life unfolded, one thing was apparent…he was consumed by the word of God. When asked by various ministers what...

Luk 2:1 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.

The service has already started and so Bill starts down the aisle looking...

“Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpeh and Shen, and called the name Ebenezer, saying, Hitherto hath the LORD helped us.” (1 Samuel 7:12) Many Christians have joined in the singing of a familiar verse in an old hymn, without knowing its great meaning: “Here I raise mine Ebenezer; hither by thy help I’ve come.” When the Ark of the Covenant was captured by the Philistines, the old priest Eli and his sons, Hophni and Phinehas, all died the same day, as did Phinehas’ wife, in childbirth. It was a tragic day for Israel. But then the people...

The most bone chilling horror I can imagine is being put to the question during the Spanish Inquisition.? For 500 years the fires raged, the prisons were filled, and the tortures continued. ?The Nazis were but a quick splash on the pages of history spanning but twelve destructive years.? Pure carnage and suffering touched nine generations of those living on the southern side of the Pyrenees Mountains.? Jews, Protestants and the oldest enemy of all…the Cathari were their targets.? When Pope Innocent initiated the crusade against them in 1208, he labeled them the Albigenses.? They...
