I (Alexey Bogdanov) first came across 49 Lies about six years ago. Although I had been a Christian for over twenty-seven years, I had not fully realized that faith was not just the knowledge of the right doctrines in my mind, but the work of God's Holy Spirit and the living Word in my spiritual heart.

Kathy Privitera was confused so she sent me this email: Jesus says that Satan is the prince and even god of this world. But God is the one who sets up authority and leaders. He takes one down and puts one in place (Dan. 2:21). Though Satan is the god of this world, God still has ultimate authority and control? My logical head wants to understand how can Satan be the prince of this world and God the one who sets up the authority putting leaders in place? Can you expound on that?
I once attended a church where grace was rumored to mean that we were alright even if we never obeyed God. Grace meant God was cutting us slack. He knew we would sin so He lowered His standards of acceptance. We were saved by grace not by works so - why bother doing any works at all? I found this definition hard to reconcile with John 1:14.
Jesus, we thank You that You were willing to lay down your life so that victory could be won. May we do the same today.
If you are looking for a safe place to give money where you know that 100% of it will go to ministries in Ukraine that are helping refugees, then I have the contact information for you. It is Don and Myrna Paprocky who head up Glory Power Ministries and currently live in Jacksonville, Florida. Don’s parents are from Ukraine, and Don has many relatives there. Don and Myrna have been missionaries in Ukraine, so they have many ministry contacts.
God has promised to deal justly with mankind. God’s covenant blessings and covenant curses relate directly to those who hear and obey His voice, or don’t hear and obey his voice (Deut. 28). These promises are extensive and touch every area of our lives either lifting us up or destroying us, and they are re-affirmed to us through Jesus Christ: “As many as are the promises of God, in Him they are yes; therefore also through Him is our Amen to the glory of God through us” (2 Cor. 1:20).
Whether you are single, engaged, a newlywed, or celebrating your 65th+ anniversary, this course offers insight into God’s purpose for marriage. We are entering into a season known as the Kingdom Age where we are to pray down the Lord’s Kingdom on earth as it is in heaven. It is important to know God’s purpose for marriage and how to live within His covering as man and wife. Another important concept is to understand more fully the meaning of God’s grace and its role in our marriage.
The foundational beliefs which anchor us in times of distress
What a scary concept, that religious leaders are not going to make it to heaven! Here is what Jesus said: "For I say unto you, that except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven" (Matt. 5:20).
Two things come to mind: 1) I don't want to be a Pharisee; 2) I don't want to be shepherded by a Pharisee.
The following prophetic word is from Malachi Talabi. This word makes me feel that it's time we all get excited and expectant that God will use us in new and amazing ways.
