Schon vor 9000 Jahren wurden sie angebaut, buddhistische Mönche verbreiteten sie in Ostasien, mit der Industrialisierung begann ihr globaler Siegeszug.

Now, more than ever, an increasing number of experts are convinced that the Antichrist will not come out of Europe. Instead, they say, he will come from one of the Islamic nations that now surround Israel. However, this is one case where the experts are almost certainly wrong. Indeed, a thorough analysis of the pertinent data proves that it’s actually impossible for the Antichrist to be a Muslim or an Arab. And all of that data and analysis can be found in The Islamic Antichrist Myth - the powerful new essay by Charles K. Bassett.

Most people have asked, “Where is God when hard times hit?” Even great heroes of the Christian faith like Elijah, a prophet from the Old Testament. Elijah’s life was going great. He experienced spiritual victory after spiritual victory and had the favor of God on his life. And that’s when it happened! That’s when the bottom fell out of his life.

It’s a word that you can discover today!

As Jesus was celebrating his final Passover meal, he made some bold statements. First, he took the bread and said, "This is my body." Then he took the cup, saying, "This is my blood."

What happens when Christians take the Lord’s Supper?

Leo Tosltoy brings to light the struggle of finding true faith in this short story about a young man who desperately chases worldly accolades and social status before finding contentment in the last place he would have thought to look. After learning of a shame that he receives as catastrophic news, the young protagonist turns to the monastery to prove his moral superiority and his inability to be sullied by the ways of men. While outwardly he appears to be the perfect picture of holy devotion, Father Sergius continues to struggle with his desires and pride.

Leo Tolstoy describes the mental and emotional journey of Ilyich as he is suddenly confronted with his own mortality and must question his entire way of life. Ilych had chosen to ignore his family and the health of his own soul as he attempted to reach new heights in his career and social standing. As his ideas and opinions come under intense scrutiny, he begins to understand the futility and consequences of his way of life. In describing the deconstruction of this worldview, Tosltoy reveals the serious dangers of selfish and short-sighted living.

Every one of us gets anywhere in life due to three things: someone observes us, forms an opinion about us, and decides to give us an opportunity...or not. Likewise, we do the same thing with others. People have played this essential role in our lives, and we play it in the lives of those around us - and no matter how skilled we’ve become, we can play it even better.  

First published in 1903, James Allen's As a Man Thinketh has become an inspirational classic. A beautifully thought-provoking work, Allen's contribution to the New Thought Movement continues to encourage each of us to reflect on our thoughts and to work to regain possession of them.  Using Proverbs 23:7, "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he", as inspiration, Allen describes how man is the creator and shaper of his destiny by the very thoughts which he thinks. "A man is literally what he thinks."
