Actually, that is only a little off. God will help those who step out of the boat and keep them from sinking into the water if they keep their eyes on Him in faith. He just wants us to take that first step. Getting out of the boat is the hardest part. I’m trying to figure out how to get out of mine.

My favorite bible verse is Jude 3:21 “God helps those who help themselves.”

Uh, Aesop wrote that, and the book of Jude only has one chapter.

When the nation of Israel turned against the God of the Bible and rejected calls to repentance from Hosea and Amos, the Lord gave Amos the prophesy above. America and Britain, two of the greatest God fearing, missionary supporting, nations that this world has ever know have become like ancient Israel.

The list [of evidences] is pretty long. LOST tribes, indeed.

We know about liberal ignorance, however they look at it the opposite way. They believe that conservatives are Cretans and genetically inferior. Dinesh D'Sousa, a brilliant historian and Scholar, was just committed to psychiatric care because of his resistance to tyranny...
