Capital Punishment - Zero Crossings
There is a growing interest in our nation to abolish Capital Punishment. The death Penalty is God's law and the following is a scriptural study intended to enlighten those of you who may be unfamiliar with God's laws. God has given us very specific guidelines in His word as to how and when capital punishment should be carried out. God's law has not changed, nor will it ever change.
Some major church denominations openly speak out against Capital Punishment. In doing so, they have set themselves against God. Jesus warned the churches, in the Book of Revelation, if they lose their first love and do not keep His commandments, He will remove their candlestick. Removing a candlestick is the removal of a church.
Rev 1:20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.
Rev 2:4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.
Rev 2:5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
Has the church lost their first love, their love for God? Do they understand, teach and obey God's commandments? One major Christian church denomination that openly speaks out against God's law on Capital Punishment recently closed over sixty churches in one city alone. Is God removing their candlestick?
How long will God continue to bless our great nation, the United States of America, if we continue to turn our back on our Heavenly Father's laws?
I pray this study will open your mind and that God will bless you for opening His book and studying with Him.

A Prayer for Spending Money - Your Daily Prayer - May 29
No one is immune to the negative hold that money can have on our hearts in plenty or in want. I am a spender. I like to shop and get new things. However, God has taught me throughout my life to pray about my spending and to listen to the still, small voices that lead me in my financial decisions. God desires us to live a life of generosity, putting God before money. We cannot serve both God and money.
