Silver Crosses Make Wonderful Gifts

December 25th, 2009 No comments

Christian jewelry can be anything from a cross, to a WWJD pendant, even prayer beads are in; maybe a little extreme, but I have seen a growing popularity all over the place. And even if you are not christian, it does not mean you can’t wear them.

Now a days, wearing jewelry is all about style be it christian jewelry, or regular jewelry. However, over the last decade or so, there has been an increasingly popularity of crosses, it probably has something to do with the rise in horror movies, or even celebrities that wear certain jewelry make it widely popular.

With the increase in certain vampire movies, sales in crosses as increased a huge amount, as they say, when a celeb wears something, everyone wants to wear it too.

The most common are of course, gold and silver crosses, but I have seen pewter, glass and even someone who decided to use twine to tie 2 small sticks together.

However, if you still wear yours for your faith, then I admire you for that. Hey, just because they have gained in popularity does not lessen the fact the power of your faith.

If you don’t wear christian jewelry that is fine too, but that doesn’t mean that you couldn’t still pick up a cross pendant, or a WWJD bracelet to promote your faith, or even give as a gift. These are kind of things that are never going to go out of style, but will most likely gain in extreme popularity.

When thinking about what to give someone for a gift you should consider christian jewelry. christian jewelry is a unique gift that people can wear anywhere.

Christianity At A Crossroad; The Christian And The Fate Of Christianity

December 25th, 2009 No comments

Christianity faces a battle that it must win but can lose if the Christian community does not comes together. Over the last two thousand years we have experienced attacks and we have survived.

But we can lose this power to fight back if we do not organize. Now more than ever our societies are quicker to accept the contemporary view of the bible and the irrelevance of the Christian faith than we once did.

Over recent years there has been a lot of information in the form of movies and books that have had a significant impact on the Christian faith. Their attacks are packaged in a way to taint the Christian God and replace it with a modern view.

They tend to attack the bible, the main source of the Christian faith, by writing scholarly works that point out the incorrectness of the gospels. They argue that the gospels were written long after the crucifixion and therefore legends would have already developed by the time they were written.

Accepted movies and books do great damage to the Christian faith and the bible. They attack them in new ways and find methods to disdain accepted scholarly works with their scholarly work.

These new age scholars, writers and producers are shaping the way the public perceive the Christian faith. They are becoming successful because of the information age which makes it easier for them to provide their opinions especially on the Internet and crowding out traditional scholars.

They are dissuading even traditional Christians especially the educated ones. Their agenda is to make Christianity and the Christian God a thing of the past. These radical attackers of the Christian faith will use virtually any means at their disposal to reduce the Christian faith to irrelevance.

Our schools have been a sacred teaching place where the Christian faith was taught to the young and Christian morals were instilled. Gone are those days when our curriculum consisted of books that promoted creationism and not the idea of Darwinism. Our impressionable are vulnerable and are being taught concepts the Christian faith doesn’t promote.

We have to form a coalition of the willing who will come against this assault against our beliefs and our faith. Until we begin to fight Christianity will lose its importance in our lives and in our societies.
