Christians Have No Voice?

By -

To my Christian friends:

I would urge you to vote in this election.  While neither candidate really reflects what I want in a president, one of them will come out on top.  People have fought and died for us to have this right as Americans to vote; not voting simply because you don't like your options is ignorant and irresponsible.  Know that you still have the choice not to vote, but I will not take you seriously when you complain about who wins the presidency.

Most importantly, remember to pray for whoever does win this election, regardless of how you feel and who you voted for.  If you don't like that advice, check out 1 Timothy 2:2 and 1 Peter 2:17.  All of this in love!!

LOTR On Prime: Timeline of The Second Age

THE PURPOSE OF THIS INFOGRAPHIC With Amazon's new show in the works, tentatively titled, "LOTR On Prime", you might be wondering what the show will be about. What content is available for them to use? Where are they getting this from? Will characters from the Lord of the Rings films be in it? This timeline was created to answer and visualize many of these questions, designed with the casual fan in mind. It is an infographic illustrating almost everything that takes place in The Second Age, which is when the show will take place (we say "almost" because, inevitably, there's always something else that could be included). WHAT IF I ONLY KNOW THE MOVIES? The Lord of the Rings takes place during the Third Age of the world. While this is certainly the most iconic story that J.R.R. Tolkien ever wrote, he also built an extensive world beyond that of The War of the Ring. The Amazon Prime show will take place primarily during The Second Age, which many events go on t

WHO IS THE BEST BATMAN?

I’m talking about the best live-action film version of Batman.   If we had to go to the greatest portrayal of Batman across all forms of media, hands down it would be Kevin Conroy as Batman in the Arkham games.   I firmly believe this series (specifically Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City) are the absolutely the best version of Batman, his villains, and the overall mythos. As far as live-action films, it’s clearly between three actors: Michael Keaton, Christian Bale, and Ben Affleck.   While they all have pros and cons to their performances, here’s what I think they are each able to do really well: MICHAEL KEATON No matter how you might feel about Michael Keaton’s performance, no one can argue that it defined how Batman would be portrayed for decades to come.   Before this, Batman was campy and not taken seriously.   When I look back and watch this late 80’s movie, I’m not particularly impressed (being born a few years after its theatrical release), but

What Is Speaking In Tongues?

SPEAKING IN TONGUES This can be a touchy subject among Christians.   There are varying viewpoints, and this issue seems to spark so much emotional and personal feelings it’s almost taboo to talk about it even among Christian circles.   I’ve decided to focus on answering 10 questions regarding speaking in tongues.             1. What is speaking in tongues?             2. Is speaking in tongues found in the Bible?             3. What is Baptism in the Holy Spirit?             4. Why is there so much division on this subject?             5. Is speaking in tongues still for today, or was that just for the Early Church?             6. Who can speak in tongues?             7. Is the “initial physical evidence” really that important?             8. Do you lose control of yourself when you speak in tongues?             9. Am I not saved / less of a Christian if I don’t speak in tongues?             10. If I’ve prayed for this gift, why haven’t I received it?
