America's Spiritual Crisis and the Unintended Consequence of Spiritual Lethargy (pt.2)

It’s been a hectic few weeks for me. But I wanted to continue the discussion on Spiritual Lethargy. In the first post I stated "The world purposely fights the teaching of God in order to release itself from His submission. Like Satan, the world wants to be its own God." If you do not believe that then read some of the comments that are posted to Christian News articles. Yesterday it was announced that a group of Chinese explorers discovered Noah's Ark on the side of Mt Ararat. Only time will tell if it is indeed true. But flood story aside, the flurry of comments trying to debunk the idea of a Literal Ark that saved Noah, his three sons, and their wives from the Great Flood are almost comical. But in reality they are very sad and pitiable. The lack of understanding about the Ark story in the scripture is very prevalent; which indeed underscores the writing of this article.

America's Spiritual Crisis and the Unintended Consequence of Spiritual Lethargy (pt.1)

Welcome to Truth Inspires!!

I am glad you found it! I am so excited!!! The purpose of this Blog is to uplift the "Truth" as it is given and taught through our Lord Jesus Christ. I have been under a steady conviction now for about 1 year to get this going. But because of past experience, I have become a firm believer in waiting on the Lord for His direction. It’s the only way to succeed. It’s the only way to find lasting peace. It’s the only way to be free. So here it is...12 months later and, hopefully, just in time to give and receive advice to as many as God would send this way. I have no intent on demeaning or putting anyone down for not believing in Christ. So you will never see me do that. That's a promise. I have every intent on dissecting the Scripture to expose truth and to help guide others in the way that they may see the awesome power of God and experience the peace that will never be spiritually understood by the unbelieving. God has put so many on my heart. Every day I see people ma
