Passion 4 Him

I started reading this book on Kindle and it alarmed me to the rise of the Occult. This Satanic movement has been going on since time began but seems to have gained popularity. The sad reality is that many are being deceived and using the occult rather than seeking God. I wanted to highly recommend this book: https://www.amazon.com/Kingdom-Occult-Walter-Martin-ebook/dp/B005F69KIW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1543733410&sr=8-1&keywords=kingdom+of+the+cults+by+walter+martin+kindle

 (This article is by the late Dave Hunt and many of his other writings found here: https://www.thebereancall.org/ )   It has been suggested that the unique ability to form conceptual ideas and to express them in speech separates mankind from all lower creatures by a chasm that no evolutionary process could ever span. Although that is true, there is another capacity that separates man even further from animals. Paul explained it thus: “Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity [love], I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal” ( 1 Corinthians:13:1 ). To put it in a contemporary context, without love man is a robot—a computer programmed to meaningless reactions. In a word, it is love that makes a human being. God has given mankind marvelous abilities. Think of the great scientists and philosophers who have probed the mysteries of life; and the poets, novelists, and musicians who have expressed the depth of human exp...

In this article, Dr. Gary Hedrick, the president of Christian Jew Founda- tion Ministries (CJFM) Ariel.org and editor- in-chief of Messianic Perspectives, takes a closer look at spiritual identity theft. His article was first published in January of 2016 and is republished here with minor edits. By Dr. Gary Hedrick Who Is the Israel of God in Galatians 6:16?    We’ve all heard about identity theft, and some of us have experienced it firsthand. It’s a crime where a thief pretends to be you. He hacks into your credit card accounts and wreaks havoc, often stealing money right out from under your nose, making your credit score tank. It’s a serious problem, especially in our digital economy. During the most recent year for which figures are available, roughly 16.6 million Americans experienced at least one incident of identity theft. Financial losses for that year totaled a staggering $24.7 billion. However, there’s another form of identity theft that many people are...

Published by Dave Hunt 1991 During the temptation in the wilderness, Satan offered to give Jesus “all the kingdoms of the world...and the glory of them” (Lk 4:5-6). He wasn’t bluffing. This world really is Satan’s to give to whom he will. Jesus didn’t dispute Satan’s boast that this world had been “delivered unto me [by God]; and to whomsoever I will I give it.” The conditions upon which Satan offered this world to Christ were clear: “If you bow down and worship me”—which, of course, Jesus refused to do. Beware! For the kingdoms and glories of this world are still the favors Satan bestows in order to entice today’s recipients into worshiping him. Like their Lord, Christ’s true followers refuse the kingdoms and glories of this world. This refusal includes the highly touted new world order, which will still be under Satan’s control. Christ has promised believers something far better—an eternal and heavenly kingdom procured through His defeat of Satan at the cross. As a r...

Question 31: Is there a difference between the lake of fire and hell? Posted on  January 12, 2018   by  Ariel Ministries  Answer :  The term “lake of fire” is found in four passages of Scripture, all of which are in Revelation: The beast and the false prophet are cast into the lake of fire (Rev. 19:20); Satan is thrown into the lake of fire (Rev. 20:10); death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire (Rev. 20:14); and the lake of fire is called “the second death” (Rev. 21:8). From these four references, one can make four deductions: The lake of fire is the eternal abode of all those who are lost, both angels and men. The punishment includes both the soul and the body. Both death and Hades are cast into the lake of fire. Death refers to the material part of man, the body; Hades refers to the immaterial part of man, the soul and spirit. The lake of fire is a punishment for both of these. The lake of fire is associated with fire and brimstone ...
