I don't want to deny that there are doctors and hospitals, who only want profits than to help others in need. However, the whole video "Plandemic" is nothing more than a scam. I even remembered how Andrew Wakefield made a name for himself in a fraudulent study where he linked vaccines to autism. It was proven wrong and Wakefield got his license removed. However, that didn't stop the anti-vaccine movement from making him a hero for their cause. Yet, Wakefield (from what I heard) is known for his love for money and fame. Wakefield apparently charges huge bucks to speak at events. This made me think that the anti-vaccine movement is motivated by the love of money (1 Timothy 6:10). Why do I want to link the movement to the love of money? Some people in the medical industry are guilty of profiteering. Some doctors and nurses are into their jobs not because they want to help people but to profiteer from their patients. Conspiracy theories also make a huge lot of money. For ...

I remembered 9/11 or the fall of the World Trade Center (WTC) happened 20 years ago. The death of Osama bin Ladin happened 10 years ago. Now, I think about how I got engrossed in conspiracy theories from reading Chick Publications, Jesus-is-Savior, and Conspiracy Planet to name a few of the many. 9/11 was certainly a big event that shook the world. The genocide caused by two suicide bombers and the deaths caused by those trapped in the building was no joke. Then it invited discussion for conspiracy theorists (such as Cutting Edge Ministries and End Times Updates) to discuss about it. Not surprisingly, many of them supported the "testimony" of the late Alberto R. Rivera as a genuine man of God. Back then, I still supported Rivera as a hero of the faith and dismissed any accusation against him as "Jesuit-manufactured". I could remember the time when I was trapped in the nightmare world of Chick Publications. The "Alberto" comic book series was very fascinati...

I remembered a few years after I received Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior - I got into a Christian bookstore. There was some excitement. Before I got saved, I was able to read the "Alberto" series (in which the late Alberto R. Rivera was really a fraud ). I used to believe the "Alberto" series with all its creative artistic licenses (such as certain scenes in "Double Cross". I didn't use my critical thinking cap and thought of Chick Publications as a reliable source. Unfortunately, most people didn't see that Chick Publications is toxic . The late Roy Livesey was right to criticize Chick Publications as a huge obstacle in soulwinning. Too many Roman Catholics are too angry to listen especially if you show them the "Alberto" comics. There's bound to be more defensiveness by a Roman Catholic with the "Alberto" comics than they would if you shared to them "Catholicism: Crisis of Faith" and "Truth Encounter...

One of the doctrinal footnotes that I'm stuck in with the KJV Study Bible is "Failure of Faith". Failure of faith isn't only experienced by unbelievers but also by believers. How are these failures of faith listed by the footnote? Here they are: Failure to accept the work of Christ or God's will in one's life (Mark 16:11-14) Little faith which is faith and unbelief mixed (Mark 7:26) Weak faith or expressing it as mere legalism (Romans 14:1) These are all in contrast to strong faith or to be rooted in the promises of God. I was thinking about how those three areas are where I'm guilty. I tend to lapse to them (more often than not) and I recall how often my faith was failing especially in my teenage years and adult years. It also drives me to have conflicting desires (such as having romantic interests with an unbeliever in a Christian school) or when I want to forgive someone yet I also want to get even with that person at the same time. I was thinking of ho...

One of the many things that I started to question was why God allowed man to eat meat after the flood. Were the pre-Flood people vegetarian? The Bible doesn't seem to say but some scholars believe that the pre-Flood times were vegetarian.  Apologetics Press addresses the issue in this way: To answer the question, “Were all men prior to the Flood vegetarians?,” one merely can conclude that the Bible reveals God giving instructions only regarding the eating of food made from vegetation prior to the Deluge. God’s Word is conspicuously silent regarding the eating of animals. However, just because God apparently did not authorize man to eat animal flesh before the Flood, does not mean that mankind abided by this regulation. It seems likely that there were some people who went beyond what God allowed, and ate various kinds of animals anyway . It is not difficult to imagine those living just prior to the Flood, whose every thought was evil continually (Genesis 6:5), leaning over a sacrifi...

One of the arguments that I ran into some time ago is the cosmological argument for God's existence. Cosmology is the study of the universe. The Greek word "kosmos" means "world" and "logos" means "study". That means the cosmological argument of God is based on the study of relating with the origin and development of the universe. Cosmology is a branch of astronomy relating to the study of the development of the universe. Sadly, the study of cosmology today is tainted by the false doctrine of evolution by Charles Darwin - a view that pagans freely accept but Christians don't. Christians know evolution just can't be real based on scientific evidence. For the pagans, it's more of defending their religion since almost every pagan creation story is as messy as Darwin's views. Darwin was also from a family of Freemasons too. The more I study the science of the universe - the more it can be seen that it's not a result of random ...

I remembered back when I read the book by the late R.C. Sproul Sr. called "The Holiness of God". One of the chapters talked about God's justice. One line from the book says to be careful when you ask for justice - you might get it. How many times do I find myself really singing "Amazing Justice" instead of "Amazing Grace" never mind that I was forgiven of debt I couldn't pay? How many times have I really ignored the fact that I'm just a flawed human being in the need of God's grace to do right? Genesis 18:25 has Abraham talking about the Judge of the Earth doing right. Any truly saved person wouldn't want to punish the innocent along with the guilty. Such are poor standards today like in Communist countries or in Nazi Germany - the innocent suffered along with the wicked. Yet, one can also question God's justice such as the incident with the Tower of Siloam which caused 18 bystanders to die, or Pilate's massacre during the minis...
