Homeschoolers Miss Out on Sexual Promiscuity and Much More
Written by Ray Comfort
Home-schooling in the U.S. has become very popular in recent years. For a number of reasons, it’s also becoming more accepted, not only in Christian circles but also in the secular world. By not being educated by the public system, their kids will miss out on learning how to communicate using filthy language. They will also miss out on the use of illegal drugs. Home schooled kids will also miss out on sexual promiscuity and much more.

As I wept my way through the Holocaust doing research for a new book called Hitler, God and the Bible, I thought that I would uncover why Adolf Hitler so hated the Jews. But all I found were a number of theories; no one really knowing for sure as to why his hatred was so venomous. Some surmise that he was insanely jealous of the Jews because many were able to stay financially secure during the 1929 depression. Others think that he was bitter because he contracted syphilis from a Jewish prostitute. In Mein Kampf he called it a "Jewish disease," and this lead to speculation by some that he may have contracted the disease himself.
Still other authorities believe that his hatred grew out of a sense of rejection, after he submitted his paintings to the Vienna Academy of Fine Art. Hitler claimed that the professors that rejected him, were Jewish. Others believe another theory--that "The core of his hatred lies at the defeat of Germany in WWI."...

“Paradigm shattering! A most powerful message that will change and save lives!” ~ Johnny Berguson - Pres. Kingdom, Inc.
“As one who was scheduled to be aborted, this astounding video struck me at my core that this is needed more now than ever. It is more than powerful...it is a vehicle of God's voice to this generation, and must be seen!” ~ Ron DiCianni
The “180” project is the biggest evangelistic project we have ever attempted. On one day in the near future, 1,000 Christians will mobilize and give away 200,000 copies of a DVD that proclaims the gospel clearly, and does it biblically. This will be done in 100 of the nation’s top universities, again, in one day. Most of the 1,000 are not your average...

We can't live without water. An incredible 97% of it is in the form of salt water oceans and yet we can't drink it or even use it for crops. Drinkable water for the billions on the earth only amounts to 3% of the total amount. But 2% of that is shut up in the form of ice on the polar caps, and so that leaves just 1% of the earth's water available to sustain life on earth. This fresh water sits in lakes, ponds, rivers, streams, and in deposits beneath the soil.
However, there is one other place in which vast amounts of fresh drinkable water are stored. Trillions upon trillions of tons of water sit above us in the form of pregnant puffy clouds. These great water deposits float like feathers above our heads, and they do so because of fixed laws...

When I wrote a recent article on a scientist's attempt to make a bird, and how it infinitely fell short of the incredible design he plagiarized, an atheist responded with, "Here's one difference: The robot bird's maker showed up on stage to demonstrate it. He could show you his plans [and] outline the process by which he built it. He was there for all to see. Not so your God."
Athiesm is truly "senseless." Sir Isaac Newton's word in describing the belief was well-chosen. It lacks sense. It's about as sensible as a man who is in a dark room, denying the existence of light. His senselessness is seen in that he refuses to come into the light. A little investigation on his part would end his argument...

In mid-2011, Markus Fischer and his creative team at Festo built "SmartBird"-- a large, lightweight robot, modeled on a seagull. This amazing flying robot was unique in that it flapped its wings like a real bird. When Fischer spoke about his creation, the large audience sat quietly and listened to his every word. However, after they saw it fly around the room in which they sat, they gave him a standing ovation. They praised him for his brilliance. Plagiarism is the copying of someone else's ideas, and representing it as your own original work. Fischer copied his bird directly from God's design, and humbly took praise for it as if it was his own creation...

If you listen to most modern preachers, they will tell you how God can help you. He’s your friend and He’s there for your happiness. He has a wonderful plan for your life. However, with a spiraling world economy, the increase in global disasters, wars, unstoppable diseases, massive floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, droughts, tsunamis, and escalating violence, it’s not so easy to make the promise of a bliss-filled future for those who respond to the gospel.
Words mean different things to different people. While some preachers would say that a “wonderful” plan means that God will be with us in the lion’s den, they don’t mention the lions, and so they are disillusioned the first time a lion looks at them as lunch. God isn’t portrayed in Scripture as...

God told Jeremiah that He “formed” him in the womb (Jeremiah 1:4,5). While we may think that God created Adam and Eve and backed off, Scripture tells us that He is intimately involved with every one of us even before we existed.
God not only forms us in the womb, He knows each of us as individuals before we are created. He told Jeremiah that before He formed him, He knew him and set him apart as a prophet. Even before our conception, in the eyes of Almighty God each of us are a personality with worth and purpose.

In Psalm 1, Scripture gives us a clear picture of what a godly person should be, as well as the reward of this godliness.
Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and in His law he meditates day and night. He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall prosper. (vv. 1–3)
Let’s meditate on these verses to truly understand their meaning and consider how they apply to parenting.

It’s been said that if you have a question about something, ask a teenager. They know everything. Well, they think they do. One of my sons moved into an apartment with a couple of friends when he was a teenager. After about a year of his paying rent, I explained to him how much he could have saved if he had stayed at home. The thought of not paying rent, no utility bills, free food, and clean clothes must have spoken to him, because he moved back home and saved a bundle. He was soon in a financial position to support the woman of his dreams. This happened around the time he purchased a pair of generic sneakers for about $20. He said that he realized he had been wasting money on high-priced designer brands just to look cool. My boy had become a man.
