We all go through disappointments in our lives, the faithful and non. But, so you will never have the littlest doubt because you don't have miracles happen in your life, Google the Shroud of Turin to verify in your own mind and the minds of others that the testimonial is truth, that not even science can dispute.
May God bless us with His mercy in the coming days, for when the world comes to see the power of Christ I believe the time of judgement wil come to hand.
Evolutionist have their own religion....Evolution. They believe and have faith in something that doesn't exist (in the way our God doesn't exist). Their scriptures are the numerous articles written on the subject of their religion. They have preachers to convert those to their way of thinking (Dawkins and the sort), and disciples to keep them on the straight and narrow. They have a prophet (Darwin) and a savior (Mendel). This is what Evolution has to do with religion. Their churches are PBS and the Discovery Channel. They even got the Catholic Church to recognize them.
"Oh Mendel, our great savior, please lead the lost from the clutches of an imaginary friend. Use the bones that time has given us as tools to let the blind see. Let the promise of the Great DNA bring us all into agreement, so one day all human kind will advance to superior beings."
Think about it, the theory of evolution, you have to have some faith to believe in it.
Now, Here's what God said.
If evolution is associated with the Catholic Church, it has to be remove from the public schools, and soon from higher education. It had just turned into a religious icon. Recognize it as a valid belief so it can't be taught like the bible can't.
There's only one way out of this....present both views. Creation and Evolution, let the kids choose what they want to believe.
Life is difficult for us all, God puts us through suffrage to build our faith and character. Let's face it, a lot of people have been "humbled" in the last two years.
With should give thanks to the Lord for everything we have and thank God for the blessings we will receive in the future.
When I came across the video of this little girl I shed a tear, but think of the agony her parents are going through, and the fact she will not be fully accepted into society. To die because of persecution or stavation means there is an end to the suffering, but to live with a birth defect takes strength and those involved have to have faith in God.
So, Keep this little girl in mind when your burdens seem heavy. Remember her and her family.
If you ever feel the you are getting a "raw deal" and you think that your sufferage is hard, just search "juliana wetmore" and book mark that information. Take a peek at it everyonce and a while and know that God truly blesses you.

Since it is by faith we know our Holy Father you have to try their faith.
Since they cannot accept God because they don't see, ask them if they believe in something they haven't seen. Ask them if the believe in ufos and extraterrestrial life. Most will say yes because it is hard to believe we are the only physical entities in the universe. They have put their faith in something unseen. How different is that from our fatih in an unseen God? Plus if the existance of aliens is true, what do they (the aliens) put their faith in?
What if a race of creatures, much more advance than us, actually believe in God, seen the wonders of the Lord, and spoke to our forefathers about Him? If all that is true, such is the bible is true. Would it not be better to put their faith in the Lord rather than commit their souls to eternal damnation?
1)Exodus 20:1-2 God spoke all these words: I am God, your God,
who brought you out of the land of Egypt,
out of a life of slavery.
3 No other gods, only me.
2) Ephesians 5:25Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her 26to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, 27and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. 28In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church� 30for we are members of his body. 31"For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh." 32This is a profound mystery�but I am talking about Christ and the church. 33However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
3)1 Peter 3:1Wives, in the same way be submissive to your husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives, 2when they see the purity and reverence of your lives. 3Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. 4Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight. 5For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God used to make themselves beautiful. They were submissive to their own husbands, 6like Sarah, who obeyed Abraham and called him her master. You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear.
4)Exodus 20:9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work,10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates.
5) 1 John 3:11This is the message you heard from the beginning: We should love one another. 12Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own actions were evil and his brother's were righteous. 13Do not be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you. 14We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love our brothers. Anyone who does not love remains in death. 15Anyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life in him.
6)James 4: 11Brothers, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against his brother or judges him speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting in judgment on it. 12There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you�who are you to judge your neighbor?
7)Exodus 20:17 "You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor."
8)Matthew 6:19"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
9)Matthew 6: 31So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' 32For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
10)Leviticus 19: 11Do not steal. Do not lie. Do not deceive one another.
Julio, by the time they ask "Who create God?" that now means they acknowledge the Lord's existance, ask them about their belief in God again. Next ask them if they die, would they go to Heaven or Hell? Then you can ask them if they know the Ten Commandments. Remember them yourself because you will probably have to recite the commandments to them. Ask them if they keep all the commandments. Tell them the bible says, "If you're guilty of breaking any of the commandments, you're guilty of breaking them all. For all have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God." They will have to admit they are sinners and have to admit they are going to Hell.
From there you can start witnessing salvation through Christ and what Jesus did for us on the cross.
You don't have to use scripture when witnessing, have strength in your faith.
