Jehovahs Witnesses New World Translation Bible Changes

 
This short article shows how the Jehovahs Witness Watchtower Society has purposely edited their own Bible to get it to agree with their false teaching regarding the Lord Jesus Christ. Since the Witnesses deny the godhood (deity) of the Lord Jesus Christ, they ran into a problem with their 1961 edition of their Bible because it mentioned in Hebrews 1:6 that angels worship Jesus. Since only God is to be worshipped, and… Continue reading

Evolution: Pretend-Science For The Willfully Ignorant

 
In the beginning Nothing created the heaven and the earth. And the Nothing found something and that something inexplicably exploded into lots of other somethings.

Christ Died For The Ungodly

by Horatius Bonar

The divine testimony concerning man is, that he is a sinner. God bears witness against him, not for him; and testifies that "there is none righteous, no, not one"; that there is "none that doeth good"; none "that understandeth"; none that even seeks after God, and, still more, none that loves Him (Psa. 14:1-3; Rom. 3:10-12). God speaks of man kindly, but severely; as one yearning over a lost child, yet as one who will make no terms with sin, and will "by no means clear the guilty." <continued>
