As tens of millions of children get dressed up for Halloween to get candy, and as millions of adults get dressed up in costumes ready to party the night away, little do they know that for over a thousand years Halloween has been celebrated by pagans, witches and Satanists as one of their most important holidays. While many people (including many Christians) defend this holiday as a night of childlike fun, the reality is that there is more animal sacrifice and even more human sacrifice on this night than on any other.

Have you ever watched a kid preacher preach against the theory of evolution? If you have, you have probably never seen any kid as good as the one in the video below. The video is in Spanish, but English translations are provided at the bottom of the screen. This little kid makes more sense than dozens of other preachers that I have seen who have tried to talk about this topic. Perhaps if the majority of the pastors and ministers out there continue to compromise and continue to water down the gospel God will raise up little kids like this to make a mockery of us all. I don't think I have ever seen such a young kid speak so eloquently. This little guy is really something special. Let's hope that he continues on this path as he grows older. He certainly makes a lot of great points concerning evolution and creation..... 
Dr Hormoz Phd a scientist tells about his his journey from Islam to Jesus Christ. Hormoz describes himself as an "independent thinker," he read the Koran, got some answers, but still felt empty. He came across a Bible and started to read that. At first he thought Jesus would be like the figure in the Koran, but the more he read it, the more he realized that "Jesus didn’t look like the prophet in the Koran." Jesus seemed strong and confident, he said. Hormoz was drawn to the teaching at the Sermon on the Mount, but found it the Sermon was nice but not practical. Who can live like that? "God used that," he says. "This convicted me. If this is the standard, we’re all sinners." Hormoz was in a tortuous state for some time. He couldn’t accept or not accept Christ. Hormoz started attending church and did accept Christ. Hormoz grew in the Lord and started a Bible study and by 1988 he started a church. Shockingly it doesn't end there! 
One of the most dramatic developments in prophecy is seen in what God is doing through Muslims throughout the Middle East and even in the United States. Many Muslims are seeing dreams and visions of Jesus. They are coming into churches explaining that they have already converted and now need a Bible and guidance on how to follow Jesus. This is in fulfillment of Biblical prophecy. Joel 2:28 "And it shall come to pass afterward,that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh;your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,your old men shall dream dreams,and your young men shall see visions" This is what happening in these last days. Muslims Encountering Jesus In Unusual Dreams Reported that among African Muslims, "42 percent of the new believers come to Christ through visions, dreams, angelic appearances and hearing God's voice." Over one-fourth of those surveyed state quite emphatically that dreams and visions were key in drawing them to Christ and sustaining them through difficult times. Rick Love, International Director of Frontiers, has recognized the pattern as well. He writes that, "Just as God used a vision to convert Paul, in like manner He reveals Himself to Muslims through dreams and visions. Just as God prepared Cornelius to hear the Gospel through a vision, so God is preparing a multitude of Muslims to respond to His good news." 
By far, the most compelling reason that a great number of other religious faiths turn their lives over to Christ is the power of love that is within Jesus. Nearly half of all Muslims who have made a shift of faith allegiance have affirmed that the love of God was a critical key in their decision. A testimony of a former Nichiren Shoshu Buddhist finds the master he was searching for. 
Bill Wiese was placed in hell to proclaim that Hell really exists, as Jesus told him that many of his own people do not believe in Hell. It is simply amazing to see so many Christians (of all people )who don't believe in Hell. Like the worldly point of view, these Christians surely grab ahold of all the goodness Heaven holds, but completely reject the absoute terror the bible speaks about Hell because they simply don't want to believe there can be a place so terrible. The simple fact is that when a Christian questions the reality of Hell in the bible, they are questioning the authority of the Bible and their savior Jesus in general. Jesus Christ spoke more about hell than anyone in the bible. Today more than ever people are clinging to religions with no concrete proof, becuase they do not want to be told that there is only one way to Heaven. Sadly, the majority of Christians are a product of their churches teaching, and sadly the lie from the pits of hell are parilizing Christians from spreading the gospel. So in some sense, if there is no hell, (as some Christians proclaim), then there is also no reason to reach out to people with the gospel. 
Unlocking the Mystery of Life documents how scientists are abandoning naturalistic explanations for the origin of genetic information and looking to theories of design for answers. This documentry begins by gathering theorists that are not satistified with Darwin's theories. UC Berkeley's Law Professor Phillip Johnson gathered together a number of theorists to discuss the scientific questioning of evolution. The documentary then follows the development of the intelligent design movement through insightful interviews with key design scientists Paul Nelson, Stephen Meyer, Dean Kenyon, Michael Behe, William Dembski, Jonathan Wells, Jed Macosko and Scott Minnich. A growing number of scientists around the world no longer believe that natural selection or chemistry, alone, can explain the origins of life. Almost every scientific discipline are now accounting for new found evidence that supports the theory of intelligent design. For instance, in molecular biology, the presence of information encoded along the DNA molecule has suggested the activity of a prior designing intelligence. Watch the whole documentry here 
Since new evidence has surfaced showing a 3D image on the Shroud of Turin's cloth, talented artists Mark and Trish Carew have created a video that combines the heightmap image from the Shroud of Turin and an artist's sketch from the Shroud to create a 3d model of the face of Jesus. Check out the picture, and the video here.
