					  <title>Why do we have to go through life and live on earth?</title>
					  <link>http://www.articleworld.net/articles/16024/1/Why-do-we-have-to-go-through-life-and-live-on-earth%3F</link>
					  <description>I believe it is the broad experience away from God. To know what it is to be out of His presence and what things are without Him. It&#39;s like learning the hard way. The problem is we can walk with Him now while we are on the earth and experience His presence through His spirit. </description>

					  <description>Truth, good and beauty. Every man thrives to accomplish and have their own perception of the 3. One man&#39;s good can be another man&#39;s evil. Right or wrong is, in aspect, wrong or right.</description>

					  <title>Our Spiritual Authority</title>
					  <link>http://www.articleworld.net/articles/10103/1/Our-Spiritual-Authority</link>
					  <description>The subject of authority can sometimes be confusing, so lets start by defining it. Strongs Concordance says; privilege, delegated influence:  W.E. Vines says this &#34;power of authority,&#34; the right to exercise power. I have heard one definition of authority that says authority is delegated power, and I think that is a very good description. Authority in itself is not power, but the bestowed right to use and yield that power...

					  <link>http://www.articleworld.net/articles/7330/1/From-the-School-of-Pain-to-the-School-of-Vision</link>
					  <description>Always there and waiting for an invitation from us, the Grace of God is truly the answer to our prayers and beseechings. When we embrace the Grace of God we are no longer forced to learn our life lessons at the mercy of pain, but we are open to living life guided by Vision and Inspiration.</description>

					  <title>The Miracle of Self Forgiveness</title>
					  <link>http://www.articleworld.net/articles/7329/1/The-Miracle-of-Self-Forgiveness</link>
					  <description>By coming to terms with my past, the gift of compassion was ignited in me -- a gift I can and do readily share with all those I teach and counsel. The miracle experienced from my commitment to forgiveness is the profound love I share with my first-born daughter, a love activated the moment we hugged that has continued to enrich my life ever since.</description>

					  <title>Moon as the Earliest Calendar</title>
					  <link>http://www.articleworld.net/articles/6895/1/Moon-as-the-Earliest-Calendar</link>
					  <description>Moon as the Earliest Calendar give readers of the Holy Bible information recorded in ancient times.  Lunar/solar calendars were common throughout the ancient world.  Three calendar systems that help our study of Bible times are the Jewish, Mesoamerican and the Egyptian calendars.  Changes in the appearance of the moon at night provide the seven-day week.  Time steps in the lunar/solar calendar accumulate for longer time cycles.</description>

					  <title>Leading a Growing Church</title>
					  <link>http://www.articleworld.net/articles/2174/1/Leading-a-Growing-Church</link>
					  <description>Recently I spent the day reflecting on my fumbling attempts to lead our church in growth. To say that I've felt unprepared for my current assignment is an understatementthe Three Stooges meet Forrest Gump strikes me as a more accurate picture. While my initial list filled three pages, here are four things I wish someone told me before my boat left the dock:</description>

					  <title>I Still Believe In Hell</title>
					  <link>http://www.articleworld.net/articles/2171/1/I-Still-Believe-In-Hell</link>
					  <description>At first glance you'd probably think I'm resistant to change. I don't drink Starbucks coffee. I not a big Abercrombie &#38; Fitch fan. I'm still not used to women having tattoos. I'm not getting an earring any time soon. The Palm Pilot craze has passed me by. I can't take pictures with my cell phone and I still can't program my VCR. My wife even says I still have the same haircut I had when I was in fifth grade. I assume she thinks that's a bad thing.</description>

					  <title>When God Says &#39;No&#39; After Promising to Move Mountains</title>

					  <description>It would be a lot easier to accept a negative answer from God if Jesus hadnt insisted on telling us about moving mulberry trees and mountains and receiving whatsoever one asks.  But he did say all that and when we dont get what we ask for it leaves us feeling a little confused.  We start to wonder why Jesus said it at all.</description>

					  <title>Where Have All the Disciples Gone?</title>
					  <link>http://www.articleworld.net/articles/2086/1/Where-Have-All-the-Disciples-Gone%3F</link>
					  <description>Five years ago my family and I started a new church in the suburbs of Philadelphia. When we arrived I wanted the first dollar our church spent to make a statement about the kind of church we were going to become. So I took every penny we had in our church's checking account, which wasn't much, and blew it all in one day.</description>
