Living in a politheistic society

 What is a politheistic society ?


A polytheistic society is one in which people worship multiple gods and goddesses.


In our society we have different religions, we have multitudes of denominations and we have things like atheism and witchcraft. 

Religious faith in such a society become confused.

Everybody believes they are right and so the mantra in such a society becomes "live and let live."

People will say ," you have your truth and I have my truth."  And yet these truths are in contradiction to each other .


How does that impact Christians?


Many Christians become paralyzed. Fearful of confronting others if their errors because they might be labeled as extremists. As a result we become open minded, accepting everyone with their particular belief system and celebrating with everyone in their beliefs.

Ecumenism is the result. Everyone coming together in "religious harmony" while they believe things that are in complete contradiction.  


Accepting the beliefs of everyone is simply cowardice. God has not called us to cowardice. Truth exist and we must preach what is right. While respecting every single person as a creature of God, we must actively work to promote the truth of God as it is found in the Bible. We must bodly say atheism, Islam, Hinduism etc.. are false religions.  We must preach against the lack of love in the heart of many Christians and we must promote Jesus Christ as only Savior. 


In a politheistic society we must be bold. We must confront the lies in our own belief systems, the lies of our own hearts and the lies of the society.

Our society wants us to be passive concerning our beliefs, but we must be bold and valiant for the truth.

If you believe in the Truth of God, preach it, proclaim it and your faith will strengthen. 

Don't wait until you know a lot to stand for God, preach what you know now and as you do, the Holy Spirit will guide you.

Constantine won the battle and started on the path that led him to become the sole ruler of the Roman empire.

On October 27 with the armies preparing for battle, Constantine claimed to had a vision which led him to fight under the protection of  the Christian God. According to the message of Eusebius of Ceasarea, around noon, Constantine saw a luminous cross in the sky and under it the inscription in Greek," in this sign thou shalt conquer. " Constantine also claimed to had a dream in which Christ commanded him to use the sign of the cross against his enemies. Constantine became the first emperor to convert to Christianity.  He ended the policy of persecuting Christians and in 313...

Second Beast of Revelation Revealed part 1

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. Revelation 13:11 This prophecy speaks about a nation rising at the end of time that will seem to represent Christ but will actually be against Him. In this small study, we will reveal that nation. Below are some symbolic terms in prophecy needed in order to follow this study. Beast : a political entity, a state or empire Earth : symbolizes a place that is not heavily populated, unlike the sea. The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues."  Revelation 17:15 Horns : Horns represent kings and kingdoms, or governments.

The spiritual nature and the degradation of marriage

Man was made in the image of God.  What does it mean to be made in the image of God? What is God like ? The Bible says "God is a Spirit." What comes to mind when you think of a Spirit? You think of something not limited by physical restraints, something unseen, something greater than the physical.  God made man in His image, He made a spiritual being covered by an earthly body. We all have the breath of God within us, we all have a spirit within us. The spirit within is the real person, the character.  With the spiritual nature we relate to God and with the earthly nature we relate to the earth.  So let's break it down a little bit so we can understand . What are the things we find in the spiritual nature ?  In the spiritual nature we find love, patience, longsuffering, mercy etc.. The spiritual nature is all about relationships, that's the most important to the spiritual nature, its highest goal. Why do I say this ? Remember what we said in the beginning, "God ...
