About Race: I Corinthians 9:24, Hebrews 12:1. Note: the word "race" referring to national distinction, is not in the Bible. Acts 17:26 is the only statement that refers to God's attitude toward different nationalities. Charles Darwin, the person who made evolution a famous theory, popularized the concept of race, as we know it today, when he divided people into classes according to their skin color. While the Bible lists many nations and tribes, there is a lack of skin color distinction to identify them. Again, the word "race" is not even in the Bible. God distinguishes us by the condition of our hearts. In His eyes, the only "race" is the one to be run in the Christian life.


About Parents Responsibility in Educating their children: Deuteronomy 6:6-8, Ephesians 6. Proverbs 29:17; Proverbs 19:18; Proverbs 29:17; Proverbs 19:26; Proverbs 29:15;



About Psychology: The entire Book of Proverbs is the most superior psychology book in the world because it shows the consequences of foolishness and the rewards of righteousness. The word of God is the only thing necessary for life. 2nd Peter 1:3

About division and denominations: Matthew 15:9; Ist Corinthians 1:11-13

About sin: Acts 22:16, Romans 3:25,

About being converted: Acts 3:19; the conversion of the 3,000: Acts 2, the Samaritans: Acts 8; the treasurer's conversion - Acts 8; The apostle Paul: Acts 9:18, Acts 22:16; The Centurian: Acts 10; Lydia - Acts 16:13-15; The Jailor - Acts 16:26-30; Crispus and household: Acts 18:8;

About drinking: Proverbs 20:1; Proverbs 31:4; Isaiah 5:11; Isaiah 5:22;

About feminism, socialism, Marxism and other isms: Their doctrines are false and opposed to the teachings of the Bible. Christ already liberated women when He made them fellow heirs and we do not need any isms or added doctrines to the word of God. People are equal when they obey the gospel.

About Class: There are only two classes of people: those who have obeyed the gospel of Christ according to His last will and testament, and those who have not. The attitude the saved should have toward the lost is that they have the responsibility of teaching them the gospel, when the opportunity arises. The attitude of the unsaved, thelost, and those who have not obeyed the gospel, is that they are outside of Christ, and must obey the gospel to get in Christ. 2nd Corinthians 5:17
