Confident Living Magazine Articles: THE FOOL'S FOLLY


 This psalm describes the atheist and gives eight reasons why he is a fool. First, he does not acknowledge God (v. 1). He lives as if there is no God. He does not obey God (v. 1). Some people think that human nature is basically kind and good. Not so. We are abominably corrupt by nature (Rom. 3:9). He does not understand God (v. 2). If you don't have the Spirit of God, you can't understand the things of God. Atheists say they won't accept anything they can't understand. Actually, there is little in the world they do understand!

Hard Lessons Learned.

Theodore H. Epp The Founder Director of Back to the Bible Int.

On the fifth of July, 1939, during that first year of the ministry, our pantry was empty except for a can of beans and a little bacon. And we had only three cents in the cash box.

Our oldest daughter, then six, offered to go to the dairy and get a bottle of skim milk, which cost three cents. My heart was thoroughly discouraged. I paced the floor.

A week had gone by, and we had not received one single letter. This was Thursday. Friday’s broadcast was paid for, but we didn’t have one cent with which to pay for the broadcast the following week. What should we do? What could we do?

Obeying God’s Call

Abraham was chosen, or elected, on the basis of the sovereignty of God.  He has no Bible, so he was not able to receive his call through God’s written Word.  God sought a man, and on the basis of His sovereign will and purpose, He chose Abraham...

"Worry Free Living" A TOXIC WEB OF "WHAT IF?"

Winning Your Family's Battle Over Worry

Worry and its fraternal twins anxiety and stress, affect our mind, body, and spirit—and can make our families miserable. In these practical pages, Cole and Rose—with contributions from leading researcher Pamela Ovwigho, PhD—help parents to identify what's bugging their families, and to clarify and sort their worries into those they can and cannot do something about. This insightful resource includes Bible-based wisdom, advice, and treatment options from a variety of psychological and medical professionals. Ideal for individual use and group study, Worry-Free Living helps you:


·        Identify the Top 10 Worry and Stress Points and plot steps toward change

·      Understand the difference between the mind (what we think) and the brain (the physical processes of chemical reactions) and how both contribute to worry.

·        Discover tools to de-stress our thinking and calm down our bodies

Reject the myth that we are in control and learn to take Jesus at His word: "Come to
me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28).


The "Recap and Reflect" feature helps me to hear from God through others—and that may be the most important thing of all.
Brian Doyle, President, Iron Sharpens Iron National Men's Equipping Conferences


Great advice for every worrier in your life . . . Offers hands-on strategies on how to nurture a calmer, Christ-centered home front.
Dr. Trina Young Greer, Founder and Executive Director of Genesis Counseling Center

The M-Word: Masturbation: A biblical perspective

This one’s about masturbation. You’ve been warned.
Is there a more awkward subject in all Christendom? Controversial, sure–but mostly it’s just not fun to talk about. Of all the sex issues, it’s the squirmiest.
And if we’re talking about getting God’s perspective on it, there’s just not much to go on. In the past, people have tried to translate certain verses–including, notoriously, the sin of Onan in Genesis 38:6-9–to refer to masturbation, but it’s quite a stretch. There’s no rule to scribble on a post-it note and slap on the bathroom mirror. I dig deeper. I engage the Bible.

New Year (2014) Calendar From Back To The Bible India


AGING: From the Archives of Christian Writings

AGING - I

Picture Credit: vancouversun.com
The Bible tells us that “religion that God accepts as pure and without fault is this: caring for orphans or widows who need help….”  (James 1:27 NCV). 

  If I profess to be a practicing Christian, the reality of my faith will be reflected in my attitude towards the elderly in general and to my own parents in particular.  First, I am called to respect old age itself.  The Word of God tells me to “Show respect to old people; rise up in their presence….” (Leviticus 19:32 NCV).

 How long has it been since you saw a younger person rise to give his or her seat to an older one? Just as a matter of common courtesy, do our own children get to their feet when their grandparents come into the room? And when grandpa is out of earshot, are our words indicative of a spiritual obedience and a decision to indeed “Honor our father and our mother”?

….You see, it is not enough to care financially for our loved ones.  They deserve more from us than our pocketbooks.  They need above all else to know that we consider them valuable as people and that they are still Important to somebody, somewhere.  Do we have a sympathetic sensitivity to their severe desire for independence and their frustration or embarrassment of having to be dependent on us at all?  Have we appreciated the fear that they may have had of becoming just so much nuisance value to us?  We will have to work very hard to assure them that it is indeed a privilege and joy for us to care and give and do, not as a mere duty, but rather as a delight. 

 I believe that “honoring” or valuing our parents includes all of this.

AGING - II
Really you may not be as old as you think you are.  Is the age of fifty old?  John Wesley thought so because, as he approached the half-century mark, he very gloomily and hastily wrote his obituary that he might be remembered among man, but at the age of eighty-eight he was still living a joyous and a full life. At that age he was worrying about being remembered by others, but was thinking about how he could accomplish the will of God.

Is the age of sixty-five old?  Charles Elliott, president of Harvard, once thought so and was telling a friend that the expected to die pretty soon because of the old age he had reached.  Yet at the age of ninety-two he was living a more useful life than he was at the age of sixty-six.

The point is, you may not be as old as you think you are.  It has been well said, “Age is only a matter of the mind!  If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.”

Doctor Albert Schweitzer worked creatively and happily well past his ninetieth birthday.  He had many accomplishments he could point to.  He could have “rested on his laurels,” but he continued to believe that there were useful tasks which he could perform.  Even at the time of his death, he was working on the manuscript for a new book.

Go back to Robert Browning’s   beautiful poem:  “Grow old along with me!  The best is yet to be….”  No matter what your life is believe that your present age is the best age.  And it is very likely to be.

 Connected Bible reading portion: Genesis 17:1; Deuteronomy 34 1-7; Luke 2:25-38; Titus 2:1-5

Health & Sex — A Christian Perspective


Health & Sex
by Josh McDowell & Dick Day

Picture Credit. Google/tumblr.com
God created each of us as a total being, and therefore is interested in each of us as a total being.  Most important, He wants to see us grow near to Him spiritually.  He also wants to see our minds challenged.  He wants to see us emotionally and physically healthy.  He is interested in our moral conscience, desires, speech, social relationships, and plans for the future.  He is no less interested in our physical well being and how we treat our bodies.  The body is the vehicle for all the rest.


The owner’s manual for a car I brought was entitled “The Proper Care and Maintenance of Your Vehicle.”  If car manufacturers... are so interested in how I care for my vehicle…. How much more is God concerned about how we care for the “vehicles” He has placed us in?

We don’t put gas in the radiator or water in the engine.  Why? Because we know it will ruin everything… Yet even though we see the awful damage premarital sex continues to cause in lives all around us, millions of people engage in it nonetheless.  They may even glance through the Manuel and claim a knowledge of the subject, yet they continue to take part in sex out of the context God established.  If God tells us sex is wrong because it wrongs our bodies, He knows what He is talking about.  Remember, this vehicle is His design.


God wants us to be good stewards, good caretakers of what He has given us.  That goes for money, possessions, talents, spiritual gifts, and our bodies, everything entrusted to us
