God gave the Holy Spirit to His Church on the Day of Pentecost, but few now understand the meaning of this Holy Day. God’s Holy Spirit is vital for true Christian living, but many are unaware of what it is, what Pentecost is, and what these things mean to Christians today!

You may have seen the news – a new satire about God being developed by the Comedy Central channel.  It's a cartoon called "JC", short for Jesus Christ.  A recent Washington Post article of May 6 reports that this new cartoon show is "about Christ trying to get out from the shadow of his 'powerful but apathetic father' so He can lead a typical New York life" ("Comedy Central: No to Muhammad – but Yes! to Jesus").

On May 26, 2006—high on the north slope of Mount Everest—climbing guide Daniel Mazur, of Olympia, Washington, was faced with a life-or-death decision.

As a sportsman, I was disappointed when, upon moving to North Carolina, I encountered the "Sunday law."  No deer hunting on Sunday.  Period.  As a Sabbath-keeper, this has brought me no little consternation!  I will not hunt on Saturday, and according to the laws of the State, I may not hunt on Sunday.  That leaves Monday through Friday – not ideal for getting in quality hunting time.
