Beware!!!!




If you have children or grandchildren, work with children at church,or you have neighborhood children whose parents you know, please take note of the information below and pass it along to others. Schools are distributing this book to children through the Scholastic Book Club.

The name of the book is Conversations with God.. James Dobson talked about this book twice this week. It is devastating. Parents, churches and Christian schools need to be aware of it. Please pass this information on to church/e-mail addresses, Parents, Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, friends.

Please pay special attention not only to what your kids watch on TV, in movie theaters, on the internet, and the music they listen to, but also be alert regarding the books they read.

Two particular books are, Conversations with God and Conversations with God for Teens, written by Neale D. Walsch. They sound harmless enough by their titles alone. The books have been on the New York Times best sellers list for a number of weeks, and they make truth of the statement, "Don't judge a book by its cover or title."

The author purports to answer various questions asked by kids using the "voice of God". However, the "answers" that he gives are not Bible-based and go against the very infallible word of God. For instance (and I paraphrase),when a girl asks the question "Why am I a lesbian?" His answer is that she was 'born that way' because of genetics (just as you were born right-handed, with brown eyes, etc.). Then he tells her to go out and "celebrate" her differences.

Another girls poses the question "I am living with my boyfriend. My parents say that I should marry him because I am living in sin. Should I marry him?"

His reply is, "Who are you sinning against? Not me, because you have done nothing wrong."

Another question asks about God's forgiveness of sin. His reply "I do not forgive anyone because there is nothing to forgive. There is no such thing as right or wrong and that is what I have been trying to tell everyone, do not judge people. People have chosen to judge one another and this is wrong, because the rule is "'judge not lest ye be judged."

Not only are these books the false doctrine of the devil, but in some instances quote (in error) the Word of God.

And the list goes on. These books (and others like it) are being sold to schoolchildren through (The Scholastic Book Club), and we need to be aware of what is being fed to our children.

The children of our nation are under attack. So I pray that you be sober and vigilant about teaching your children the Word of God, and guarding their exposure to worldly mediums, because our adversary, the devil, roams about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8). We know that lions usually hunt for the slowest, weakest and YOUNGEST of its prey

Being Thankful

I just wanted to start off my day being thankful to my wonderful Heavenly Father for all that He does for me. I had a stomach virus yesterday, and He graciously allowed me to get through our homeschool day before I was confined to the couch for the evening. He cares for us in every part of our lives. He takes care of us with the big things and the little. I want to be thankful every day for His many blessings. I heard a sermon preached by Paul Washer and he was saying that we shouldn't serve Jesus to "make" Him love us...we serve Him BECAUSE He loves us. I hope you all have a wonderful day...remember to find something to be thankful for each day :-)

passing info

I just got this email from ModestApparelUSA.com, so I'm passing it along to you, as this involves most of us:



Please check out this article. And please sign the petition and call your elected officials. This could put the entire children's clothing, books, toys etc out of business. Especially SMALL BUSINESSES.


http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=85735

The new law quoted in the above article will affect our ability to sell clothing to girls under the age of 12. The new law requires that every item sold to a child 12 or under needs to be certified lead free by an independent inspector which would be very costly. Barring any changes, this law will go into effect on Feb 10 2009.

Another great word from the Lord...

Deuteronomy 6:5-7 (King James Version)

5And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.

6And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:

7And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

God Speaks through His word

Just the other day I was talking with Austin (my 10 year old) about how God has a purpose for his life. I was telling him that God had a purpose for him before he was even born, while he was in my belly. ...Austin reads his bible before going to sleep each night. The night after our conversation, he had my Bible (he usually just has his New Testament), and the next morning, I asked him to share what he had read the night before. I had no idea what he had read and had never asked him to do this before...the passage that he had found to read was this..and get this..he said I read to verse "5" ...God is truly Amazing..

Jeremiah 1
1The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests that were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin:

2To whom the word of the LORD came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign.

3It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, unto the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah king of Judah, unto the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month.

4Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

5Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
