This document outlines opportunities available to believers that provide unlimited potential for advancement. It discusses 6 key opportunities: 1) Eternal economy and government not subject to worldly systems. 2) Receiving God's blessing which orchestrates destiny beyond material concerns. 3) The indwelling of the Holy Spirit for fellowship with God. 4) Fulfilling one's predestined purpose rather than existing by chance. 5) Authority over all the enemy's power so nothing can harm believers. 6) Possessing the nature and capacity of the Spirit rather than limitations of physical nature. In conclusion, the document encourages considering what God can do through believers.
How do you respond to the idea that there are spiritual powers and demons in the universe that are working against God's will?
How are you aware of the spiritual warfare around you? If Satan is a "deceiver" and our Lord calls him "the father of lies" then how have his lies affected your life? What lies have you believed (in the past, or possibly now) about yourself, others and God? These and other questions are addressed in this study.

Should men rule over women? Why Genesis 3:16 does not support Complementarian...Tim Catchim

I also read this, during the slide with the pictures of the holocaust...
"An elderly German man who lived through the Holocaust tells the following story:
I always considered myself a Christian. I attended a church since I was a small boy. We had heard the stories of what was happening to the Jews; but like most people in America today, we tried to distance ourselves from the reality of what was really taking place. What could anyone do to stop it?
A railroad track ran behind our small church, and each Sunday morning we would hear the whistle from a distance and then the clacking of the wheels moving over the track. We became disturbed when one Sunday we heard cries coming from the train as it passed by. We grimly realized that the train was carrying Jews.
Week after week that train whistle would blow. We would dread to hear the sound of those old wheels because we knew that the Jews would begin to cry out to us as they passed our church. It was so terribly disturbing! We could do nothing to help these poor people, yet their screams tormented us. We knew exactly at what time that whistle would blow, and we decided the only way to keep from being so disturbed by the cries was to start singing our hymns. It some of the screams reached our ears, we'd just sing a little louder until we could hear them no more.
Years have passed, and no one talks about it much any more; but I still hear that train whistle in my sleep. I can still hear them crying out for help. God forgive all of us who called ourselves Christians, yet did nothing to intervene."
