    Prayer needs to be reinstated back into schools Allowing prayer back into our schools will help shape and mode the younger generations into mature ethical adults.

    Prayer in public schools has always been a “hot” and controversial topic. It is very emotional‚ and that makes people passionate about this subject. Prayer should never be included in public schools; prayer in the classroom deviates from the Founding Father’s vision‚ excludes other religious activities/rituals and ostracizes individuals who do not participate in prayer in the classroom. For generations‚ children have said the Pledge of Allegiance in school‚ but many people might not know that the

    Reflection on the Lord’s Prayer The Christological heresy of Apollinarianism and the Trinitarian heresy of Dynamic Monarchianism compromise Jesus’ divinity‚ humanity‚ and unity. A belief that compromises Jesus’ divinity‚ humanity‚ or unity is an outright denial of the incarnation. A denial of the incarnation of Jesus Christ distorts Jesus’ unity with the Father and sinners; which therefore distorts the meaning of the Lord’s Prayer as the Church would pray it‚ (Work “Loving Jesus the Wrong

    The United States‚ with all its rights‚ is beginning to hold back on one of its most important.

This includes prayer during school hours and after school hours (at football games‚ graduation ceremonies‚ etc.). Worshipping has never been a problem in our history‚ it is a wholesome practice that is not meant to offend anyone‚ and freedom of religion is a First Amendment

    PRAYER WARRIORS IN THE BIBLE BY Pr. David Munyere Who were the prayer warriors in the Bible? Prayer warriors are people who are known for regularly interceding on behalf of others before God. To intercede means to come between‚ so prayer warriors are‚ in effect‚ coming between God and the trouble in another person’s life. Prayer warriors are like advocates appealing to the Higher Court on behalf of their defendants. We’re all guilty before God‚ but God is merciful. Prayer warriors recognize
