 Author and Pastor Ron Craig Notice that in Mark 16:17, the Lord promised that (supernatural) signs will accompany believing ones, BECAUSE JESUS WILL BE WITH US BELIEVING ONES until the very end of the age (Matthew 28:20). Notice as well that those signs are to accompany believers, not only the original twelve apostles. That promise does away with the modern teaching that miracles were designed to be limited to the early days of the church, and even then to Christ’s original twelve trainees. Several New Covenant passages demolish that theology, for we read in the book of Acts that two DEACONS, Stephen and Philip—Acts 6:8 and 8:6—did miracles. Paul and Barnabas both performed miracles (Acts 14:3), although they were not of those original twelve. But, to clinch that truth, we need a number of Bible passages, not indirect observation, or theological speculation. Christ said in Luke 6:40 that the disciple is not above his Teacher (Jesus), but the one who is perfectly trained will be like his Teacher. That qualifies more than the original twelve for miracle-ministry. John 14:12 also hits that proverbial nail right on the head: “Truly, truly, I say to you, He who believes on Me will do the same works I do; and greater works than these will he do; because I am going to My Father [to send back the Holy Spirit to help the believer do the same miracles I did].”

Gehrke states, “Roy Moore did not win despite McConnell’s opposition, he won because of McConnell’s opposition. Going all the way back to the Primary, both Roy Moore and Mo Brooks promised that if elected, they would not support McConnell for Leader under any circumstances. They won because of open defiance to the Majority Leader. This is simply unprecedented.” Continue reading Moore’s win a direct rebuke of Mitch McConnell  Tony Riley Candidate for State Representative

 FREEMAN, SINCLAIR ELLIS  Alabama’s leading Political Columnist Steve Flowers The very interesting and entertaining Republican Primary for our open U.S. Senate seat culminates this Tuesday with the clash between two Titans. Judge Roy Moore and Big Luther Strange will be in a Titanic battle to fill the seat left vacant when Jeff Sessions became U.S. Attorney General. We will see if Moses with his Ten Commandments and Hebrew children of rural Alabama can slay the Philistine Mountain Brook giant. The results from the August 15 first primary were predictable. The turnout was about 18 percent, about what you would expect for a Special Election in mid-August, during 100-degree dog days of summer and one race on the ballot. Moore garnered 39 percent, Strange had 33 percent, and Mo Brooks received a respectable 18 percent. The early polling and constant polling revealed that Roy Moore had a hard-core 30 percent of the electorate. It was and still is a solid block of voters that are going to vote for Moore come hell or high water. Continue reading Steve Flowers: Senate race is Clash of the Titans  Publisher and Columnist Jeff Roland If you’re like me, you’re getting tired of seeing and hearing these millionaire NFL players whine and disrespect the country by not standing for the national anthem. I probably wouldn’t have called them a “Son of a bitch,” like President Trump did. But I see a pattern developing among these naysayers. I stood at a Sheffield Highschool football game recently for the anthem and the lowering of the colors. Sheffield won that night, by the way, but, I respect the flag and what it stands for regardless of who occupies the White House. Several professional athletes are saying the President is misusing his position as leader of the free world for calling them out when in reality, they are doing the very same thing. We have all heard the saying it’s like the pot calling the kettle black. This saying rings true during all of these recent verbal attacks. Continue reading Jeff Roland: Colin Kaepernick an unemployed hot potato Reverend and Author Ron Craig Actually, God is actively involved in relieving the world of its problems! (And the same is true for the Christian’s problems as well. If one believes for it!) However, He does not perform acts of deliverance apart from the active faith of believers, to whom He has delegated authority to minister deliverance in behalf of the needy, and in conjunction with the request of the needy, and the faith of the needy in what Jesus Christ purchased for them on the cross. “According to your faith be it unto you (Matthew 9:29).” God’s plan is to work in conjunction with New Testament believers through their faith in Christ’s Calvary-purchase. Remember that the apostles went out and preached the Gospel everywhere, the Lord working with them, confirming their word with miraculous signs (Mark 16:20). (I must explain that God is free to render due punishment upon rebels irrespective of the faith of anyone. That is proven by what happened to the King Herod of Acts 12:23. No believer had to release faith for that. That was God’s decision alone. King Herod was eaten by worms and died a horrible death. But, deliverance is tied to people’s faith in Christ’s sacrifice.) A prime example of that Bible Truth is the fact that the apostle James, John’s brother, was killed early on by King Herod. Obviously, the devil slipped up on the church, caught it off guard, and robbed the church of one of the original twelve apostles; into whose life the Savior had invested three years of His time and energy in training James for Gospel ministry. I cannot believe God planned for James to be eliminated so soon after entering the ministry. The main reason I am convinced of that is that King Herod arrested the apostle Peter as well, and intended to eliminate him as well; merely as a political favor to the Jews (Acts 12:3). However, the church got down to praying about that problem, and the Lord miraculously answered their prayer. God works not through just any old thing people call prayer, but through genuine prayers based upon genuine Bible Faith. How many people are qualified to solve world problems? And how do they get qualified? Next time!

Ron Craig: The devil slipped up on the church, caught it off guard  BIRMINGHAM – The U.S. Attorney’s Office today charged the former lead technician at a central Alabama pharmacy with tampering with vials of opioid painkillers used in the compounding of intravenous fluid bags intended for hospice and homecare patients.
