I am new to Soundcloud.com and I am testing its proficiencies
by uploading a 40-minute sermon. This is the latest from our pulpit at
Dorongan-Punta United Methodist Church. Since our congregation
is half-Ilocano-and-half-Pangasinan tounged, we preach in Filipino (although there
were few Pangasinan throws here.) This was on 1 Peter 2:18-25:
18 Mga alipin, magpasakop kayo sa mga
nagmamay-ari sa inyo at igalang ninyo sila, hindi lamang ang mababait kundi
pati ang malulupit, 19 sapagkat kapuri-puri ang nagtitiis ng parusa
kahit walang kasalanan, bilang pagsang-ayon sa kalooban ng Diyos. 20
Maipagmamalaki ba ang magtiis ng parusa kung ito ay dahil sa paggawa ng masama?
Hindi! Ngunit kung magtiis kayo ng hirap sa kabila ng paggawa ninyo ng mabuti,
pagpapalain kayo ng Diyos. 21 Ang pagtitiis ng hirap ay bahagi ng
pagkatawag sa inyo ng Diyos, sapagkat nang si Cristo ay magtiis para sa inyo,
binigyan niya kayo ng isang halimbawang dapat tularan. 22 Hindi siya
gumawa ng anumang kasalanan, o nagsinungaling kailanman. 23 Nang
siya'y insultuhin, hindi siya gumanti. Nang siya'y pahirapan, hindi siya
nagbanta; sa halip, ipinaubaya niya ang lahat sa Diyos na makatarungan kung
humatol. 24 Sa kanyang pagkamatay sa krus, pinasan niya ang bigat ng
ating mga kasalanan upang tayo'y mamatay na sa kasalanan at mamuhay ayon sa
kalooban ng Diyos. Kayo'y pinagaling na sa pamamagitan ng kanyang mga sugat. 25
Sapagkat kayo ay tulad ng mga tupang naliligaw, ngunit ngayon kayo'y nanumbalik
na upang sumunod sa Pastol at Tagapangalaga ng inyong mga kaluluwa.

compiled some of the most recent Christian MP3s that I have downloaded
(legally). All were (and still are) given away at Worship Matters, home of worship
leading resources by Bob Kauflin. If you want to download the MP3s, just look for the downward arrow found at the right of each player.
The goal of this command is love, which comes from a pure heart and a
good conscience and a sincere faith. ~ 1 Timothy 1:5
“Why Do You Believe What You Believe?” is the theme for the
second council meeting of the young people here at our district. It is enthusing
to learn that United Methodist youths are recapturing interests for Christian
apologetics. It is, therefore, timely to give away an apologetic book. Jonathan Sarfati “adroitly
makes light of the inaccuracies and fallacies of evolutionary theory, and
offers sound creationist interpretation of the facts” in his Refuting
Evolution 2.
Take a look at its table of contents:
Unit 1. Claim: Evolution is Science
Evolutionists insist that evolutionary
theory is science, and claim that creationism is religion.
Chapter 1: Argument: Creationism is religion, not science
Chapter 2: Argument: Evolution is compatible with Christian religion
Chapter 3: Argument: Evolution is true science, not ‘just a theory’
Unit 2. Claim: Evolution is well
supported by the evidence
Evolutionists claim that they have found
abundant, observable evidence of evolution.
Chapter 4: Argument: Natural selection
leads to speciation
Chapter 5: Argument: Some mutations are
beneficial
Chapter 6: Argument: Common design
points to common ancestry
Chapter 7: Argument: ‘Bad design’ is
evidence of leftovers from evolution
Chapter 8: Argument: The fossil record
supports evolution
Unit 3. Claim: ‘Problems’ with
evolution are illusory
Evolutionists argue that there are
reasonable theories for even the biggest ‘surprises’ of evolution.
Chapter 9: Argument: Probability of
evolution
Chapter 10: Argument: ‘Irreducible
complexity’
Chapter 11: Argument: Evolution of sex
Chapter 12: Argument: Evolution of
mankind

evolution that have been rejected
