Does thinking about your death make you nervous about eternity? You don't have to be afraid of that monster in the dark anymore. ... The Word of God in I Corinthians 15:54 says, "Death has been swallowed up in victory. Where oh death is your victory? Where Oh death is your sting? The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law, but thanks be to God, He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." There's the last monster—the one that lurks in the dark no matter how old we are—death. http://hutchcraft.com/Life-Issues/Death/Only-an-Interruption 2008-11-19T15:46:42-05:00 Life's partings are tough, especially when someone we love slips into eternity. Death tears us up inside, and the grief seems almost unbearable. If you and your loved one belong to Jesus, then this is not the termination of your relationship. Only because of Jesus Christ, can this interruption be bearable. http://hutchcraft.com/Life-Issues/Death/The-Difference-Between-Life-and-Death 2008-11-19T15:44:17-05:00 There are eight powerful words from Zephaniah 3:17 in God's Word. It simply says, "The Lord your God...is mighty to save." He really is. He has both the love and the power to do whatever it takes to save you from the emptiness and turbulence of a life away from God and from the awful agony of an eternity without Him. God is in the saving business. http://peggiesplace.gospelcom.net/wordwalk.htm 2008-08-18T19:14:06-05:00 Introducing !WordWalk! - a new series at Peggie's Place, with daily byte-sized resources - Scripture, comment, a hymn, a fun or faith short story, daily news - and a great way to begin your day, walking with God!

It's easy to make that same mistake when you're shopping spiritually - for something that will satisfy your appetite for meaning in life. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Life-That-Matters/Radio-Program/Spirituality-Oprah-Style-A-License-to-Drive-8008 2008-07-24T16:36:32-05:00 Children were never meant to drive, and neither are we. And that’s the problem with an awful lot of the spirituality that’s out there. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Word-With-You/Your-Most-Important-Relationship/Bridges-to-Nowhere-5611 2008-07-21T11:44:30-05:00 Salvation is in no one else. We have to be saved by His name. How can this be? Mankind seems to know instinctively that we need some kind of bridge to get to God. We feel the distance between us and the one who made us, and maybe you do. We're trying to discover what will get us to Him. So, we have the Protestant bridge to God with good works that are supposed to take us to God, and the Catholic bridge with good Catholic things to do, and the Jewish bridge, and the Muslim bridge, and the Buddhist bridge, and the Hindu bridge, and the bridge of New Age spirituality, etc. http://lausanneworldpulse.com/themedarticles.php/970 2008-07-09T15:25:29-05:00 One of the greatest challenges the Church faces in the modern Western context is the general turn away from interest in and involvement with institutionalized forms of religion, such as Christianity, and the corresponding move toward an inward and subjective expression of spirituality. http://peggiesplace.gospelcom.net/biblebytes297.htm 2008-06-23T13:18:30-05:00 Promiscuity is running rampant in today's society - teen pregnancy common and recently in news headlines heard 'round the world. What does God say? Does HE have a plan?

But the message from Jesus is that we cannot rescue ourselves: “Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am He, you will die in your sins,” (John 8.24).
