What Can We Learn From Matthew Perry? by Ruthie Alekseeva
That?s not an uncommon belief in the world. That, yes, Hell exists but not somewhere out there. Here. Right where we are. This life is Hell. That?s what Matthew Perry, a Hollywood actor on the sitcom TV show Friends, believed but it?s not true. Although this world has many pains, trials, distresses and sorrows, there?s another place completely different from here and it?s much worse than this.
Let's Find A Cure For Intellectual Disabilities by Ruthie Alekseeva
This article reviews a memoir written by Pearl Buckman, a woman who had an intellectually disabled child during a time when some hostels fed intellectually disabled people off the floor like dogs and at a time when they were hosed down twice a day because no one taught them how to use a toilet. The memoir ends with a heart-breaking appeal for a cure to be found for intellectual disabilities because perhaps the most complete and permanent way we can provide people with intellectual disabilities with the care need is simply by, once and for all, finding a cure for their intellectual disabilities.
What Can We Learn From Britney Spears? by Ruthie Alekseeva
Although I?ve never bought any CDs recorded by Britney Spears, attended any of her concerts or ever had much of an interest in her, her music or her dancing at all, when Britney released her autobiographical book, The Woman In Me, I decided I should read it.

In her book, she states she once took stock of her spiritual life, to try and get it in order. I hope she'll do that again really soon and that this time she won't stop until she returns to the durable and creditworthy teaching of the Bible that she most likely learned as a child.

THE THIEF ON THE CROSS by Jeffrey Hagan
Taking a brief look at the unique salvation experience of the thief on the cross.
Caught Up to Heaven Through Visualizing Jesus? Part 4 by Karl Kemp
For one thing, these excerpts make the relevant point that although there is no Biblical basis for visualizing Jesus or God the Father in order to come into contact with them to see them and carry on a two-way dialogue with them, the occult world has been using this technique to make contact with spirits, sometimes spirits that are impersonating others, including Jesus or God the Father and those they impersonate in seances.
Caught Up to Heaven Through Visualizing Jesus? Part 3 by Karl Kemp
The book War on the Saints: A History of Satanic Deceptions in Christianity and the Conflict between Good and Evil by Jessie Penn-Lewis (and Evan Roberts), published in 1912, deals with clever, bold demonic deceptions that took place during the 1904-05 revival in Wales (and other revivals) that helped shut down that revival. Evan Roberts was a key leader in that revival and Jessie Penn-Lewis was quite involved too. Most of the Christians were not able to recognize demons counterfeiting the presence of God, including His love, peace, healings, etc.
Caught Up to Heaven Through Visualizing Jesus? Part 2 by Karl Kemp
Franklin says that in one of her heavenly encounters Jesus took her back in time to observe His all-important crucifixion, but there are some serious problems with this "revelation": For one thing, it includes an often-repeated error about His supposedly receiving 39 stripes, but that isn't the only problem; I believe it is clear that this "revelation" did not come from God. We also consider the Bible passages that supposedly support the idea that it is Biblical to visualize Jesus or God the Father as a technique to be caught up to heaven to see and interact with Jesus or God the Father.
Caught Up to Heaven Through Visualizing Jesus? Part 1 by Karl Kemp
This book, Experiencing the Heavenly Realm by Judy Franklin and Beni Johnson, teaches that all Christians are invited to be caught up to the third heaven to see and interact with Jesus or God the Father through visualizing them and it presents the techniques for taking this trip to heaven. I don't believe this invitation is Biblical but that it can lead to interacting with demon spirit guides. Demons are experts at counterfeiting the presence, love, peace, etc. of God. This is serious!
BOOK REVIEW, PHYSICS OF HEAVEN, PART 7 by Karl Kemp
David Van Koevering, the author of chapter 12, misinterprets 1 Cor. 1:28 and wrongly states that light has been slowing down. Several authors in The Physics of Heaven state that the "sound" on the Day of Pentecost caused the other things to happen (tongues of fire, receiving the Spirit, speaking with tongues, great harvest of souls) and they are looking for a "sound" (a physical/natural sound) that will cause super-powerful things to happen in our day. I include some excerpts that help explain the New Age/Occult World.
BOOK REVIEW, PHYSICS OF HEAVEN, PART 6 by Karl Kemp
The primary thing I do here in Part 6 of this Book Review is to further disagree with different reasons that various authors of The Physics of Heaven give to try to demonstrate that it is OK for Christians to look to the New Age/occult world and quantum physics/mysticism to find things that will help us be effective Christians here at the end of this age.
BOOK REVIEW, PHYSICS OF HEAVEN, PART 5 by Karl Kemp
Here in Part 5 we discuss two interesting, powerful examples of demonic healings. It is clear that they were not borrowed from God's kingdom. We also briefly discuss whether Hatha yoga is safe for Christians.
BOOK REVIEW, PHYSICS OF HEAVEN, PART 4 by Karl Kemp
Several of the writers in this book say that the supernatural things that are taking place in the New Age Movement are "counterfeit" in that they have been stolen from the "authentic" supernatural of God's kingdom, which supposedly makes it OK for Christians to the search the New Age Movement to find the "authentic" supernatural that we need. For one thing, at least most of the supernatural that takes place in the new age/occult world has been part of Satan's kingdom throughout the history of man and has not been stolen from God's kingdom. God's people have always been forbidden to participate in the devil's supernatural.
BOOK REVIEW, PHYSICS OF HEAVEN, PART 3 by Karl Kemp
I have to disagree with much that Judy Franklin and Ellyn Davis say in chapters of the book that are discussed here in Part 3, including their interpretation of verses they use to support their discussions.
BOOK REVIEW, PHYSICS OF HEAVEN, PART 2 by Karl Kemp
We discuss the Foreword by Kris Vallotton and the Introduction by Judy Franklin of the Physics of Heaven here in Part 2. Both are important sections of this book. I have to disagree with a lot that they say here, very much including the interpretation of verses.
BOOK REVIEW, PHYSICS OF HEAVEN - PART 1: Exploring God's Mysteries of Sound, Light, Energy, Vibrations and Quantum Physics by Judy Franklin and Ellyn Davis by Karl Kemp
I have to strongly disagree with the idea that is presented by several writers in this book that it is OK for Christians to look to the New Age or to quantum physics to learn things that we need to know to be effective Christians in these end times.
To Him the porter openeth by Daryl Thies
God, throughout His word, has established and then defined the term porter. He set in order angelic porters in the heavens, and later made His first man Adam, the porter, or keeper of the earth. From angels to man and even in the animal kingdom, God has set in place the porter ministry. This teaching describes how His church redefine the porter ministry then resubmit to Gods original plan.

Muslims, Jews, and The Messiah by Dinora Trujeque
Isn't incredible that so many people ignore the truth in an era in which we can discover it by typing on a computer? Discover the truth about Islam, and the reason behind the hatred of Jews toward Christians by reading these excellent books.
"America's Blessings: How Religion Benefits Everyone, Including Atheists" by Anthony Weber
Christopher Hitchens claimed religion poisoned everything; Dawkins has compared a religious upbringing to child abuse. Are they right? Are religious groups really such a threat that these kinds of measures should be taken? Sociologist Rodney Stark draws from an impressive range of studies to make the case that the opposite is true. Religion specifically evangelicalism helps everything it touches to flourish.
Come off the Reservation by Wayne Brooks
What does it mean for a Christian to come off the reservation?
An Epilogue to the Book, "The Names of the Believers in the Bible in Types and Symbols" by Dr Surya Kumar Daimari
The names of believers are exceptionally rich and prolific in meaning. As I have researched these names through the Bible, I have been awe-inspiringly taken aback to see that a believer's life is eternally value oriented. A value which is eternal and non-perishing cannot be measured in terms of money and wealth, gold and silver. The symbolical terms such as special treasure, pearls, precious stones used for believers suggest how precious we are in the presence of God. The goodly pearls in the famous parable of Jesus are referred to non other than the believers. Jesus had to give away his own life as ransom to get these valuable pearls for himself.
A Prologue to "The Names of the Believers in the Bible in Types and Symbols" by Dr Surya Kumar Daimari
What is more fascinating, thrilling and exciting is that believers also have many wonderful names. It is really amazing to think that many of the names of believers are identical to Christ's names. They speak of believers' status, nature and attributes on this earth and their wonderful heritages in heaven.

Book Review: The Holiness of God By R.C. Sproul by Chris Gambrell
In my pursuit of reformed theology and the covenant of Grace, I was encouraged to pick up this book by a few online friends. While I admit that I was never really a big fan of R.C. Sproul, I really enjoyed this book. This book is enlightening to what it means for God to be holy.

The book contains a variety of inspired settings capturing the season we live as moved by the Spirit of Truth.

It's primary purpose is to forewarn and yet forearm us as Christians to be alert and in faith looking for His return.
