When I speak out against the depravity of the human heart and its end result, war, my hope is not to change the minds of the corrupted world but to reach just a few. I do not have any illusions of reaching hearts that have been hardened from many generations of approval to destroy those […]

I just finished a great book, Christianity, War and America’s Salvation Story by Michael E. Lewis. The book can be purchased at Sermon on the Mount Publishing in print or PDF format.

In this canon it was stated that Christians would be threatened with excommunication those Christian soldiers who insisted on quitting […]
By Christian J. Pinto http://www.adullamfilms.com/ “For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known.” (Luke 12:2) Perhaps more dangerous than yoga, psychology, or any of the new age doctrines that have crept into modern churches, is the ongoing love affair that some believers […]
