		<description><![CDATA[Finding a church home may not be an issue for some, but for many within the Christian community, a stable church home can sometimes seem remote.
The facts speak for themselves. Churches are great at moving people within the Christian community, when the greatest growth ought instead to come from those in society who don’t yet [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is not an easy subject to talk about. In fact, nobody really wants to discuss it. Yes, we hear titbits about it in the news media at times. Even our leaders find it “politically incorrect” to really debate. And, you know, many of the clergy today find it “too sensitive” to address.
This is because, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Church of God &#8212; the people of God, that is, the body of Christ &#8211; is far more diverse than we may have imagined from our somewhat parochial worldview. And of course that&#8217;s quite understandable given that for the most part we operate locally.
In reading the latest edition of the Bible Advocate, I took heart at the [...]]]></description>

Did you remember God today?
I mean, in the busyness and blur of daily life, has God somehow, albeit inadvertently, been sidelined?
I mean, did you begin today in prayer? In fact, I suppose we could ask, what were our first, waking thoughts this morning: did God cross our mind at all?
There’s a constant thread running through [...]]]></description>

It’s a question worth exploring.
You see, a lot of people say they believe in a sort of “higher intelligence”, a God who is said to have made everything, and yet when you ask them specifically [...]]]></description>

[Or: Did Jesus tell His disciples they could eat anything and everything?]
Jesus was of the tribe of Judah,1 and He grew up as a Jew, and hence He would only eat the meat of animals which God had declared clean in His law.2

THREE VERSES in the text of the Greek New Testament where insertions or replacements of words supporting a concept of &#8220;Three Persons&#8221; have been made:

Matthew 6:13
1 Corinthians 8:6
and, 1 John 5:7-8

First, in Matthew 6, the insertion follows the ending of verse 13:
