Baptist Church Bringing the Canon of Holy Hymnal Into Question By Singing a New Song

Kendallville, IN A local church has a group of young people experimenting with "new things", and it has caused somewhat of a stir within the church at first.  They are looking to embrace, or create new songs that are not found within the church's sacred Hymnal texts. "It started as we were reading through some Psalms in one of our weekly Bible studies.  We were reading where it is written to 'sing a new song'.  It got us thinking if it were possible, just maybe there were some hymns we had never sung out of the hymnal in church before.  You know, a new song.  I was really hoping to find a couple pages stuck together or something, and so we all looked.  It was quite exciting at first, but as it turns out all of the songs had been very well covered, and there was therefore no new songs to sing.  It was then that we found ourselves in the proverbial spot of between a rock and a hard place.  It felt like we could either obey Scripture, or the ...

Society That Condemns Decades Old Sins By Hollywood Actors And Public Representatives, Totally Convinced God Will Not Hold Their Own Sins Against Them From Long Ago

From Harvey Weinstein, to now Kevin Spacey, and of course our own current President of the United States, Donald Trump.  This is only a shortlist on a much longer one that spans throughout history of both Hollywood and public government officials whose sins have come back to haunt them.  Drawing public scorn, the backlash in these discoveries of such immoral behavior has threatened to end many careers; or at the very least, placing them squarely upon the unending scorn of the masses.  Many of these men and women will be fired, and/or blacklisted indefinitely or permanently by former friends, partners and supporters. Nevertheless, this very same society is hopeful that its own sins will not find them out when God judges.  When it comes time to stand before a truly holy Judge, a righteous God before Whom all is laid naked, before Whom even the very thoughts and intents of the heart are known--when it is their appointed time to die and to be judged by this all-kno...

Local Man Sits During National Anthem Every Time Someone Does Something That Irritates Him

Tucson, AZ A brave local man is righteously indigent against injustice, and not going to take it anymore, standing up. Cut him off in traffic; sits during next national anthem. Disagree with him on Facebook; sits during next national anthem. Make fun of his tie; sits during next national anthem. Call him a mean name; sits during national anthem. There is literally no offense you could levy against Devin Johnson that would not result in him sitting during the national anthem. "I just suddenly realized that every offense against me personally is bigger than one person.  It's bigger than me, and it's bigger than them.  It's a systematic problem with the nation in which we both commonly call our home.  It just makes sense.  Injustice has existed for a long time, we all know that.  There seems to be no end to it, but what are we really doing about it?  The injustice that exists such that each offense against me personally is not suc...

Local Congregation Sits During Corporate Singing, Bringing Awareness To Systemic Heresy Preached Around The World

Dallas, TX Much of the congregation at a local Baptist Church, Narrow Way Fellowship, have decided that enough is enough when it comes to heresy in the so-called church around the world, and that a greater awareness to this heresy must be brought to light.  This movement in a church of about 800 members started with married couple, Joel and Barbara Stag, and in three months has spread to about half of the church. "People have tried to tell me worshiping God is an honor, and I should stand with everyone else as we always have.  But, you can't force worship, and I do worship in my own way.  Just not in the usual way--not when there is a systemic heresy problem going on around the world.  I still hum the songs in my heart, sitting down, but I'm not singing out loud and standing up.  I don't mean to bring any offense to the leadership or other members of our church, but what are we doing about heresy around the world?  We totally respect God, and we res...

Theologically Ambiguous Lineup of Positive Christian Music Frequently Plays Just the Right Song at Just the Right Time

Des Moines, IA "It never ceases to amaze me that at just the right time, exactly the right song comes on the radio and changes everything."  That is according to Gill Youngblood, a frequent listener of the local Christian radio station "The Vibe", which promises to deliver "positive and uplifting" music from every song they play. "This one day, I was really just depressed.  Work was busy the day before, and then that night I totally missed Dancing With the Stars because I had to work on a leaking kitchen faucet.  I was driving to work that next morning and just then, a song came on singing about how no matter what I was going through, God is there for me.  Like wow, it just really hit the spot.  It was exactly what I needed to hear.  Another time I had just gotten a flat on the way to a football game.  I was sitting on the side of the road looking at my shredded tire thinking... why me?  Sitting there basically feeling sorry for myself, I ...

Evangelist Becomes An Alcoholic, Cross Dressing, Prostitute In Order To "Become All Things To All People", That He Might Save Some.

Moscow, Russia "I finally feel that I have laid it all down for the sake of Him Who called me.  I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some, just like the Scriptures tell us.  Right now, that means becoming an alcoholic, cross dressing, prostitute.  I'm going to move on to recreational drugs next, but I'm trying to ease into it." Saved at the age of 25, now after 35 years on the "straight-and-narrow", Charles Davis realized that there was an unreached world, often overlooked.  Moving from his home in California, he has left his old life behind--as he explained--including his wife and children (Mark 10:29), and for the last two years he has dived headlong into a totally new life, in order to save souls. "I saw an unreached world, and this was my way in.  I must admit, it's harder than I was expecting to leave my old life behind, for the sake of the lost.  There are days I wake up in my own vomit, laying besid...

Neil Degrasse Tyson: Proof God Doesn't Exist--"It's Not The Way I'd Do It"

"I respect people of all faiths, I really do.  The universe is a very big place.  I must also respectfully say that there is no God.  That is in all my time on Earth I have seen no evidence for God.  That's my belief, as it were, and hopefully you can respect that too.  Not that it's a faith or requires respect to be true, because I am a scientist and scientists don't operate on faith, therefore my position isn't really belief or faith, as it were.  When it comes down to it, all arguments for the existence of God are really based on circular reasoning.  It's because most people don't take a scientific approach to proving, or disproving God.  So that's my observation, and I have heard many arguments for the existence of God.  Think about this, okay?  Really, what makes it obvious to me that God doesn't exist, is that things in this universe aren't the way I would have done it.  Now, stay with me here.  You see, I'm just a sm...
