		<title>RICHES AND POVERTY &#8211; Trials of faith!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I used to wonder at the disparity among believers in terms of the privileges they enjoy in this life on earth. Some are vulgarly rich while others are the poorest of the poor. Yet, they all call God “Abba Father”! It became more obvious to me a few years back when I was teaching in [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mpunnackan.wordpress.com&blog=2231312&post=56&subd=mpunnackan&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Cain And Abel</title>
		<description><![CDATA[                   Abel, the keeper of the sheep; and Cain, the tiller of the ground!!
 
Gen 4:2 has the names of these two brothers listed for us in one place.  These two brothers in the first family represent two groups of people in humanity in general.  Some are keepers of the sheep while others are tillers of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mpunnackan.wordpress.com&blog=2231312&post=54&subd=mpunnackan&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Christian Attitude Towards Riches And Poverty</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Poverty is the results of sin.  God has permitted them for a season.  A believer should have a positive attitude towards them and make use of them for God&#8217;s glory.  Now read on&#8230;

The very first thing to remember is that today we are living in an earth cursed by God (Gen.5:29).   Before sin entered the world, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mpunnackan.wordpress.com&blog=2231312&post=46&subd=mpunnackan&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Worship God In Truth And In Spirit</title>

Answer Text.  Thank you for your question. In order to understand your problem, you [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mpunnackan.wordpress.com&blog=2231312&post=45&subd=mpunnackan&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Praying For One Another</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In  chapter 5 and v.16 James talks about praying for one another. “Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another so that you may be healed.”(Js.5:16). This verse is a misunderstood verse of the Scripture. Taking a cue from this verse, our Roman Catholic friends have developed confessions to priests. Surely [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mpunnackan.wordpress.com&blog=2231312&post=44&subd=mpunnackan&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>An Explanation OF Lk.16:1-12.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Question Text:   Kindly explain Lk.16:1-12.  What does this passage teach us?
Answer Text:  This is a portion of the Scripture which gives a lot of discomfort to casual readers of the Bible. Here our Lord seems to appreciate the character of an unfaithful servant who showed more shrewdness when he was dismissed from work and the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mpunnackan.wordpress.com&blog=2231312&post=43&subd=mpunnackan&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Faith Is Assurance; Faith Is Confidence</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I think the word ‘faith’ is one of the most misunderstood words in the dictionary.  To many people faith comes into play when evidence fails.  Faith for them works when there is no assurance whatsoever.
 One  Dictionary defines faith as ‘complete trust or confidence’.  That indeed is the basic meaning of the word. Thus it comes to [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mpunnackan.wordpress.com&blog=2231312&post=42&subd=mpunnackan&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Why God Demands Obedience From Man?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the dictionary definitions of obedience is &#8216;humble respect&#8217;.  God expects man to pay humble respect to all His laws.  In fact, the very first sin of humanity was disobedience to the command of God.  
 
The word &#8217;sin&#8217; is a totally misunderstood term.  When the Bible says all men are sinners, many are offended [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mpunnackan.wordpress.com&blog=2231312&post=40&subd=mpunnackan&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>You Can&#8217;t Do With Out Prayer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Have you ever wondered why is there such an emphasis on prayer in the Scripture?
I see two unavoidable reasons for such instructions. The first reason is that man is basically a dependent being. Physically we depend heavily on the air that we breathe and the food we eat. No one could imagine living physical life without [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mpunnackan.wordpress.com&blog=2231312&post=39&subd=mpunnackan&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Taking Authority In Prayer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As God`s adopted children through Christ (Eph.1:5; Gal.4:5) now we already enjoy spiritual authority with which we address God as `abba` `Father`(Rom.8:15; Gal.4:6). When Jesus, our Lord, was talking to His disciples in Luke 10, He said, `I give you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over the whole authority of the enemy.
