YOU Can Be Saved.





By Pastor Clarence William Page




How to Get Saved

The Holy Bible characterizes man as being shapen in iniquity and conceived in sin. We are flesh and blood. The Bible further states that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God. None of us are so privileged as to not need an intecessor in order to be Saved. Man, in his sinful state, is not worthy to approach God. The intercessor makes the approach possible. The intercessor is Jesus The Anointed One (most often referred to as Jesus the Christ or Jesus Christ).

Those of us who have come to know God through Jesus Christ realize just how important is the work of the intercessor. As we learn more about God and His holiness we begin to understand why we could not approach Him on our own. That knowledge gives us a much greater appreciation for the...

A Look at 21st Century Challenges to Living

Medicine and religion have much in common - - so much in fact that some misguided people confuse them or substitute one for the other. In medicine the patient looks up to the doctor. In both medicine and religion faith, trust and obedience are important elements of the relationships. I would not be surprised to learn that some people have more faith in the doctor than in the deity. Medicine, because of the factors listed above, has great potential for good. It also presents opportunity for unscrupulous practitioners to do much harm. Modern technology presents the opportunity to increase the effect of both the good and the harm. For that reason alone we must all be vigilant. We must stay in control of our health care programs or make sure people that are fully trustworthy are acting in o...

The Christian Church at "Checkpoint Crisis"


The Church needs to fully understand current-day realities



a message to the Christian Church

by

Pastor Clarence William Page

Dearly Beloveds,

Greetings in the Name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Every now and then the Christian Church, like all other human entities, needs to examine the current-day realities that affect its operations. As your brother in Christ, I now lay out some of those realities.

I begin with the premise that the church is in crisis. That crisis is quite pronounced and driven by the forces of the Adversary that placed our Lord on the cross at Calvary.

For proper perspective, let's identify the Christian Church and differentiate it from it kindreds and neighbors.

In persona, Jesus Christ equals the Christian Church. Its relatives...

Being a Friend to Man

Yesterday I received a telephone call from a minister informing me of a man in distress. It seems that he was stranded in a strange city (U.S. city) and was weary, frightened and unsure of what would become of him.

Over the next eighteen hours I placed numerous telephone calls to that city in attempts to find a solution to what I deemed a temporary problem (better solutions, I felt, would manifest on Monday).

Time after time my pleas for help for the man were met with the brick wall of "rules". Person after person hid behind various excuses:

"I don't have the authority"
"My supervisor is not here"
"I am the intake supervisor but I am on vacation"
"Our medical intake person is not here"
"We don't let people stay just overnight"

Finally, after midnight, I called the city's police department...

The Mark of Opposition


By Clarence William Page


A Black Man Views Life on Planet Earth

'Wherever you go in the world you will be opposed' were the words of a Caucasian US Army Captain that day as we traded barbs in the desert-situated office. It was a long long time ago, so long ago in fact that I am no longer sure he used the term "opposed" (he may have said "discriminated against"). At any rate, the message was clear: Your Black skin is the mark of opposition. Never mind that I was a commissioned officer in the United States Army, serving in one of the most elite of all military professions and starring in my unit. None of that mattered to the "good Captain". His consolation was in the belief that I would never be free, never be fully accepted, never be "good enough" anywhere in the world.

Was the captain in error? Were his disparaging remarks...

COUNTERFEIT ETHICS

By Clarence William Page

Ethics is the study of right and wrong actions. A civilization without a sound and reliable ethical base will spiral out of control. Many stabs at establishing a system of ethics have been made. Various codes of ethics have been established. Some of the codes have worked fairly well; however, there are still many ethical problems that many societies have not been able handle.

The Twenty-First Century has seen the springing up of various titles that embody some variation of the word "ethics". Included among these is the title "biotech ethicist". Apparently, the "biotech ethicist" deals with issues that arise in the field of biotechnology. That the profession recognizes the vital importance of ethics is laudable. Further, that an effort would be made to address the complexities of the discipline is commendable. What is more...

A New Low


Twenty-First Century Tears
for
The United States of America

A nation reaches a new moral low when its justice system does not understand two basic facts:

1. It is wrong to kill an innocent person.

2. It is wrong and cruel to starve a person to death.
