This holiday season, it's seeing three to four items missing from its shelves. "I can see the need people have, they need to buy more but don't have the means to do it," store manager Maria Obregon says. You can't ignore the irony of the situation. The book that read, "Thou shalt not steal" is also one of the most-stolen books in the world. In San Antonio, Bible bandits are on the rise. Local bookstores say it's a problem they see year-round.

Christianity has permeated our culture in every way conceivable ... everything that happens in our society can be linked to the sovereign will of God and the role that sin is allowed to play in this great cosmic experiment here on earth. America was founded as a Christian nation. Although that premise has been challenged frequently in recent years, a clear look at historical documents and monuments show an overwhelming support for the Bible and the God of the Bible....

Revelation 17 is one of the key passages to consider. In Revelation, the “beast” is regarded as the AntiChrist. The “other beast” is considered the False Prophet. The “dragon” is considered Satan, “that old snake.” MichNews http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-religion/2418279/posts#comment Thu, 31 Dec 2009 13:22:34 GMT http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2418265/posts There is a massive power shift underway in Washington D.C. today, which is leading our nation to abandon our Judean/ Christian heritage and founding principles at an alarming rate. Many evangelical Christians are seeing the exponential change in this country toward a secular, socialist state – especially in the last ten months – which is, quite frankly, scaring them to death. This concern is noteworthy and quite merited in light of the significant changes that are now happening, but many Evangelicals are ignorant the Scriptural prophecies (predictions) describing these very events. They are stumbling over and wondering what Almighty God...

The rabbis told Ambassador Cunningham that it was time to try the Biblical approach to the dispute over the Land of Israel.

How many of us have our testimony as an historical narrative but have no current revelation of the Spirit’s work in our lives? Is there a momentum carrying you into whatever buffer zone still remains between you and Jesus? Do you think I am speaking of something mystical, something that God is doing specifically to bring you to a greater level of obedience, trust, and worship?

It is a “bestselling” book widely reverenced, but too many Conservatives reject its Divine authority and preeminence. These “Subjective Conservatives” cannot see out of this box called time, and thus they are oblivious to the realities of Holy Scripture truth. This includes the coming establishment of the literal Kingdom of Almighty God on earth, as well as their own eternity destiny (John 3:3-5; Romans...
