We've been watching one of our favourite documentarians, Chris Pinto or Christian Pinto. His ministry is called  Addulam Films (click for the link there)  . Here is part one of a really good series called Megiddo 2.  Megiddo  means and ancient city in Northern Israel, on the plain of Esdraelon, the site of many battles, often identified with Biblical Armageddon. Megiddo II

Too many times, I forget to pray for protection before researching the enemy's tactics and as a result, the spiritual battle increases. We don't have to be intimidated or fear the enemy if we are walking under Christ's His protection. We do need to be wise and remember to always put on the full armour of God and pray for protection before learning about the enemy's warfare tactics. .  [Eph 6:11-18 KJV] 11   Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places]. 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15 And your feet shod with the preparation of ...

illustrated by Anita Berglund 2015 [2Co 11:2-4 KJV]  2  For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present [you as] a chaste virgin to Christ. 3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or [if] ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with [him]. We always want to hear/watch videos from Christians who follow Bible based teaching, and who have a heart for sharing the Gospel and being Biblical Watchmen, warning of false doctrines and teachers and such. We have witnessed too many vulnerable people accept false teachers and be lead astray. So easy to trust and follow the words of humans instead of listening to or reading God's perfect Word. Sear...

I f you are a Christian, you know that Heaven is real, it is where God dwells and where we will spend eternity with Him. Over the years I have heard a testimony or two, about people who "died"' on the operating table or some such thing, and then experienced what some call heaven. You know the lingo, "I saw a tunnel of light or a great light..." When I first became a Christian I really struggled with these testimonies, wondering if they were true or not. As I always did way back then, I asked my big sister/mentor in Christ Sue, for the answer. She pointed out that we should look at what the fruit of their experience was. Did the experience draw them to, and honour Christ or did it do the opposite, leading people away from Jesus Christ? That helped a lot. Since then I have also learned more about the spiritual battle that rages on 24/7 not just against believers, but how Satan and his cohorts are always trying to draw people's attention to anything...

We may live in Canada, but the American presidential race is just as much a part of our daily lives as our own politics, after all, every Canadian news broadcast, provides us with a steady diet of American politics, especially as the big day approaches. On that note, it therefore seems appropriate to share this. The chill up my spine started when we first learned that Mitt Romney was a Mormon... What does that have to do with anything you ask? Well, let's first dis-pell the myth that what you believe in (faith wise) has no impact on anything regarding politics. What you believe in has everything to do with who you are and what you stand for and yes, ultimately, shines out through all you say and do. I say this as one who follows Jesus Christ and believe it or not, I was once was recruited to run as a candidate, in the 1995 Ontario Provincial election. No, I am not a politician, but as someone who believes it is important to speak up for certain issues such as, the protection of...
