“We believe in a moral code. Communism denies innate right or wrong. As W. Cleon Skousen has said in his timely book, The Naked Communist: The communist 'has convinced himself that nothing is evil which answers the call of expediency.' This is a most damnable doctrine. People who truly accept such a philosophy have neither conscience nor honor. Force, trickery, lies, broken promises are wholly justified.” PeopleBelieveSaidBookPhilosophyLyingEvilForceAnswersAcceptingMoralBrokenHonorPromiseConscienceDenyConvincedDoctrineNakedCommunismCodeCommunistJustifiedInnateBroken PromisesTimelyExpediencyTrickeryMoral Code Book:Title of liberty Source: Title of liberty
“Advertisers regularly con us into believing that we genuinely need one luxury after another. We are convinced that we must keep up with or even go one better than our neighbors. So we buy another dress, sports jacket or sports car and thereby force up the standard of living. The ever more affluent standard of living is the god of twentieth century North America and the adman is its prophet.” NeedsBelieveAmericaForceSportsCenturyCarStandardsDressesConvincedNeighborLuxuryProphetConsumerismTwentieth CenturyJacketsOverconsumptionNorth AmericaStandards Of LivingAffluentAdvertisersSports Cars Book:Rich Christians in an age of hunger: a Biblical study Source: Rich Christians in an age of hunger: a Biblical study

“If we repeatedly read the Bible without the help of the Holy Spirit, it tends to reinforce our own prejudices and rock-hard doctrinal positions. We end up merely finding ammunition for what we already believe. We become so spiritually proud, so convinced of our own positions, that the Spirit is hindered in helping us to grow in the things of God.” IfsBelieveEndsHardGodHelpingChristianSpiritualSpiritFaithReadingBeliefGrowsReligiousLordRocksPositionProudBecomingHolyFindingsBiblePrejudiceConvincedChristian InspirationalDoctrineHoly SpiritPastorAmmunition Author:Jim Cymbala
