NEVER has there been a time when the TRUTH about child training has been more sorely needed. We are faced with a veritable LANDSLIDE of juvenile crime and lawlessness. Besides those future millions who will actually become entangled with law enforcement agencies, there are MANY TIMES that number who ...

It was during the Johnson administration. A leading weekly news magazine, editorializing on Mr. Johnson's chances in the upcoming elections, viewed the President's chances from the perspective of the violent antiwar demonstrations, the civil rights movement, the arms race, pollution, and, most e ...

The BIGGEST false doctrine today is EVOLUTION. Evolution is a FAITH - an almost religious-like BELIEF IN SOMETHING NOT SEEN - not proved! IS there a God? Did that God CREATE? Can you PROVE it? Evolutionists say no, and offer the theory of evolution as the only possible substitute for belief in God. ...

"POLICE BRUTALITY!" "Poverty!" "Unequal opportunity!" "Illiteracy!" "Poor housing!" "Police Chief Parker!" These are hurled back and forth as causes of the race riots in Los Angeles. Read, in this article, the REAL cause, and the powder keg ...

Many, today, are following after "another Jesus": A "Jesus, whose name was crudely painted on barns and rocks in the 30's. The same "Jesus" who was adored by the perpetrators of the Inquisition. A "Jesus, with long hair, flowing robes, halo, sick expression, thin aquiline nose, petulant lips. One ...

It's time you met the real Jesus. It's time you knew Him as He was: sometimes brusque, abrupt and authoritative. Always thoughtful, philosophical and profound. It's time you knew that Jesus could be the kindest and most gentle human being on earth, showing boundless love, mercy and forgiveness ...

Jesus was born sometime in the late summer or early autumn of 4 B.C. The first time I ever made this statement to anyone I was viewed with a combination of doubt, incredulity, hostility and outright pity. "How in the world could Jesus have been born before Christ?" I was asked. It so happens that th ...

In later years, Jesus was always making some "outrageous" statement, the way the Pharisees looked at it. If something was true, He said it. If something was false, He called it so. For example, Jesus once said, "Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad." What Jesus mea ...

Despite the fact that the Bible gives us only the briefest view through a keyhole, as it were, into the events of Jesus' birth, and gives us only one sentence, that of Luke 2:40, about His boyhood, most theologians tend to portray Jesus in only two major moments of His life; that of His birth, as ...

In the beginning of Jesus' ministry, the narrative in the sixth chapter of Mark shows that He "went out from thence," that is, from the shores of the Sea of Galilee, and came into His "own country" meaning Nazareth. The local officials in the synagogue were astounded when Jesus suddenly appeared i ...

The importance of Jesus Christ's life and death is recorded in the New Testament. Yet for those who do not accept the New Testament as accurate history, other records have been preserved which clearly show that the human life of Jesus Christ was fact — not fiction. In times past and present, ...

Scripture indicates Jesus was neither outstandingly tall, nor outstandingly short; He was therefore of the average height of the average Jewish young man of His day. Research suggests that men were somewhat larger then than they subsequently became during the Middle Ages; consequently Jesus could ha ...

John the Baptist's condition was desperate. He had just been thrown into prison, following his insistence that Herod would be breaking God's law to live in adultery. Then he heard, through several of his disciples, the rumors about Jesus' growing ministry. From the beginning, John had shunned ...

Jesus had no doubt spent many months in Capernaum during each year over a span of at least 18 years. He knew many of the people; and He actually knew the families from which He would eventually choose His disciples. Millions assume that Jesus recognized His disciples through some mysterious, mystica ...

Following the choosing of the disciples in John I, the scene immediately shifts in John 2 to a marriage celebration in Cana of Galilee, during which Jesus performed His first, and perhaps most famous and controversial miracle. Let us first read the biblical account in the book of John. Jesus' moth ...
