Jesus answered, " It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God ". ~ Matthew 4:4 Have you read through the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation?  Why not make 2018 the year to read the entire Bible, or take your family through the Bible? There are several reasons why we should read the Bible DAILY : as Jesus himself says (verse above) the WORD of GOD is bread to our soul  we are told to desire the WORD to grow by it (1 Peter 2:2)  we should meditate on GOD's WORD day and night (Psalm 1:2)  the WORD corrects, instructs, and equips us (2 Timothy 3:16-17)  Of course this takes commitment and discipline.  Accountability can be a great helper, so consider agreeing with other families to read through the Bible together.  This will also lead to some wonderful studies and discussions, since you will be covering the same topics at the same time! Here is a great, and very pr...

Leading up to our celebration of Canada Day 2017, we have looked at several examples of our Christian national heritage and the founding of our Country.  In this final post in our “ Christ In Canada 150 ” series, we will consider our Constitution. The “Dominion of Canada” was originally created in 1867 by an act of the British Parliament, and the Queen’s Assent, as a union of the Province of Canada (Ontario / Quebec), New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia.  This is known as the British North American Act, or BNA. It was not until 1982, under Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, that the Constitution was patriated; i.e. transferred under the authority of the Canadian Parliament.  In that Act, Part 1 is known as the “Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms” and it begins with the following preamble: “Whereas Canada is founded upon principles that recognize the supremacy of  God and the rule of law:” In the opening sentence of our Constitution, our Parliament and al...

As we look at some of the examples of Christian heritage in the history of Canada, we should also expect to find such Faith proclaimed in our music and literature.  In this third post in our “ Christ In Canada 150 ” series, we will consider our national anthem, “O Canada”. “O Canada” was originally written in 1880 for the St. Jean de Baptiste day ceremony.  The music was composed by Calixa Lavallee and the words, in French, by poet and judge Sir Adolphe Basile Routhier. Routhier’s original version, translated into English, contains the following stanza: Sacred love of the throne and the altar,   Fill our hearts with your immortal breath!   Among the foreign races,   Our guide is the law:   Let us know how to be a people of brothers,   Under the yoke of faith.   And repeat, like our fathers,   The battle cry: "For Christ and King!"   The battle cry: "For Christ and King!" There were several different versions creat...

As we approach Canada Day 2017, we continue to reflect on our National Heritage and the founding of our Country.  In this second post in our “ Christ In Canada 150 ” series, we will consider some of the emblems of our Nation.  In particular, we will look at our official name, motto, and coat of arms.  The name of Canada is officially the “ Dominion of Canada ”.  This was proposed by Sir Samuel Leonard Tilley, Premiere of New Brunswick, at the 1866 conference in London.  Delegates from the province of Canada (now Ontario and Quebec), New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia had gathered with officials of the British government in order to draft the British North America (BNA) Act. Tilley had been reading his Bible, as was his custom, and was impressed with a verse from Psalm 72.  When the question arose as to what name our country should be given, he proposed a “Dominion” because he was convinced our country should be a nation under GOD. Psalms 72:8 KJ...

As we approach the celebration of Canada’s 150 th year we are all filled with excitement at the planned events.   But it is also a time to be thankful, and to reflect on the history of our nation.  We ought to be thankful for the peace, prosperity, and freedom that we are blessed with in this country.  And, we ought to reflect on the Christian heritage that we enjoy, which was passed down to us by those who went before us.  In this series of posts we will look at just some of historical examples of “ Christ In Canada 150 ”. The first and most obvious example of our Christian heritage is our holidays.  The word holiday comes from “holy” + “day”; they are days that we regard as holy.  Perhaps the most widely celebrated holy-day is Christmas; the day we set aside to recognize the birth of the Savior! Luke 2:10-11 KJV   And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. ...

Get Answers! Does God exist?   How can anyone believe in religion when science has neither a need nor a place for God?   Is evolution happening today?   If God is a God of love, why do we suffer and die? Creation Ministries International is coming to Havelock, Ontario with answers to these important questions.   Come and hear Dr Jim Mason expose the bankruptcy of the evolutionary myth.   You'll be amazed to see how weak the scientific evidence for evolution is. This is an issue that affects everyone .   Evolution teaches us there is no need for God, there is no spiritual realm, and there is no afterlife.   According to the theory, spirituality is just an evolutionary trick of the mind! The Bible gives a very different picture about the nature of these things.   At this presentation, you will learn how the scientific evidence, when properly understood, confirms the details of the biblical account. At the same time, ...
