From May:History of the World in a Year by the Conservative Voice
Salvation is a hard concept for those who don't know Christ. In fact sacrificing for salvation seems very unrewarding to atheists. What is Salvation and why is it needed?
People are born, live and die. There is a rhythm and through learning and studying the past we create opportunity to maximise what we get from our life. But the concept of sin is personal, not generational. It involves a relationship with God. Sin is a rejection of God. There are many ways to do it. Not praising God for blessings, cursing God for trials, not tithing, not helping friends, family or strangers. Not involving God in your life. Over the years, outsiders have developed memes related to sin. They conflate nature with God and refer to sins against nature. It is puzzling why anyone would need salvation when nature can be so forgiving for sins against her. Worse still, Christians have joined the debate and have begun referring to sins against nature too.
But salvation, as offered through the death of Jesus on the cross, and his resurrection, are for sins against God, not nature.
The person who becomes aware of their sin, and their need for salvation has not made a choice, but received the Holy Spirit. If the awareness is not there, they have not received the Holy Spirit. But they need to hear the word of God and they need to hear of their salvation and that happens when the word is preached. Then they can walk with the spirit and have their heart become aware of the Holy Spirit.
What a person says does not mean their heart is convicted. But a heart that is aware that it needs salvation, is a heart that is ready for it. And God has given it. And if you are saved, and hold to the Lord, He will never let you go.

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell rock
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle...

I'm a teacher with three decades experience teaching math to high school kids.I also work with first graders and kids in between first grade and high school. I know the legends of why Hypatia's dad is remembered through his contribution to Math theory. And I know the legend of why followers of Godel had thought he had disproved God's existence.
I'm not a preacher, but I am a Christian who has written over 28 books all of which include some reference to my faith. Twelve blog books on world history and current affairs, detailing world events , births and marriages on each day of the year, organised by month.

Remember Patrick Henry's words: "Give me liberty or give me death." Don't let illusions of impossibility silence you—act today to ensure free speech endures for tomorrow. What's one step you'll take right now?
Free speech has been challenged before. In the US, World War I and World War II imposed wartime restrictions. The prolonged nature of the Vietnam War made such restrictions obvious, as did the war in Afghanistan. However, the failure of the press to remain free has led to remarkable academic debate. It is now claimed—and widely accepted—that free speech is illusory and not truly possible. Minor restrictions on style are said to mean that speech was never free. This view is Orwellian. What happened?
In antiquity, was there free speech in Athens when Socrates was ordered to leave? He drank poison rather than accept exile, but he had had his say. When Athens defeated Persia at sea, scuttling an invasion plan, the successful generals were ...

What exactly have the Palestinians done to demonstrate they’re ready for a state?
Some observations:
📷 There are still 50 hostages in Gaza
📷 They refuse every ceasefire proposal
📷 The Palestinian Authority hasn’t held elections since 2006
📷 Corruption is rampant
📷 Children are taught to glorify terrorism
📷 There’s no accountability, no rule of law, and no democratic institutions
So tell us, Emmanuel Macron: what part of this looks like a state-in-waiting?
