Only in Christianity and Judaism do you find the concept of “The Book of Life”—mentioned sixteen times in the Bible. Since God is omniscient—and He knows all things past, present, and future—why would He need a book or a registry of all who are gifted with eternal life? Could this just be metaphorical, a symbolic way God compares a heavenly truth to an earthly object we are familiar with? Or is “The Book of Life” literal? www.thetruelight.net

Hearing the phrase—“the evil eye”—strikes fear in the hearts of those who are superstitious. It involves a belief that a malevolent glare directed toward a person can cause misfortune, harm, injury, and even catastrophic problems. Is this true? Does a person need protection? When Jesus identified an “evil eye” in His teaching, what was He referring to? www.thetruelight.net

Does the Statue of Liberty, that beloved icon of freedom and hope, contain occult symbols promoting false religious belief systems? If so, are they innocuous and unimportant, or proof of dark, ominous, evil influences invading our culture and contaminating our nation? You decide after listening to all the facts. www.thetruelight.net

What does the tree of life represent? Intriguingly, this spiritual symbol is discovered, not only in biblical Judaism and Christianity, but also, in Buddhism, Islam, and Kabbala (which is the mystical branch of Judaism), as well as other world religions. When we understand the biblical revelation concerning this renowned tree, the door will open to some of the deepest mysteries of the kingdom of God. www.thetruelight.net

The King James Version of Isaiah 45:7 quotes God as saying, “I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil.” This translation makes it sound like the Creator is the source of all the evil in this world. How could that be true? What is the correct translation and interpretation of that controversial verse? www.thetruelight.net

Two direct encounters with Satan taught me numerous lessons that have been part of the foundation of revelation in my walk with God. Both occurred at night, in a dream-like state. In the first dream, the Holy Spirit rose up with me to rebuke the enemy. In the second dream, God Himself rebuked the enemy. What was spoken in both dreams is extremely important. www.thetruelight.net

Is Satan’s personal name really Lucifer? Was he the worship leader of heaven before he fell? Did he hover over the throne of God in heaven? Did a third of the angels fall with him? Often believers repeat biblically-based ideas like these without fully researching them in Scripture. It is possible they are based on wrong assumptions. You may change what you believe after listening to this teaching. www.shreveministries.org

So many beliefs about Satan cannot be proven by Scripture. Just because they are generally accepted doesn’t mean they are right. Is Satan’s skin red? Does he have a tail and batwings? Does he reign in hell? Can he torment you daily? Many questions need to be answered. Once you see the truth, it will completely change your way of looking at this arch-enemy of the church. www.thetruelight.net

Were the Nephilim giants of Genesis 6 the offspring of fallen angels and earthly women? If so, why are they mentioned after the flood too—since everyone except Noah’s family were drowned? Is this mysterious passage simply about rampant polygamy or sexual contact with supernatural entities? www.thetruelight.net

Should human beings seek angelic encounters, initiating conversations with them? Some Christian teachers insist we can and should. Is this pure, biblical truth or an erroneous approach also found in New Age spirituality? You decide! www.thetruelight.net

Can believers command angels to do their bidding? Some teachers of the Word say we can. Angels are ministering spirits sent forth to minister to and for the heirs of salvation, so shouldn’t we exert some kind of authority over them? What does the Bible have to say? www.thetruelight.net

Angels are mentioned over 250 times in the Bible. Their God-given purpose is inseparably intertwined with God’s plan for humankind. Does every person have a guardian angel? Is there such a thing as “an angel of death”? What are the divisions in the angelic kingdom? Both truths and misconceptions need to be addressed. www.thetruelight.net

Angels fill many roles: worshipers, warriors, watchers, messengers, ministers, protectors, and administrators of God’s affairs in heaven and earth. They are vitally important to the plans and purposes of God. However, there are many misconceptions and differing opinions in various religions concerning their nature, their functions, and to what degree human beings can interact with them.

Some pluralistic thinkers propose any name assigned to God in any religion is legitimate and appropriate. Is that true? Or is there a correct revelation of the divine name that uniquely and powerfully grants access into a personal relationship with Him? The answer is profound and extremely important. www.thetruelight.net

Prema Sankarsingh was raised in a Hindu temple, however, as a child, Jesus appeared to her in two dreams. Twenty years later, through a miraculous coincidence, she was led to true salvation. Though she worshiped many of the 330 million Hindu gods and goddesses, the true God revealed Himself to her and everything changed. A powerful interview you will want to share.

Is “The Law of Attraction” a legitimate approach to success in life? Does it work? Is it the same as “The Law of Sowing and Reaping” in the Bible? What are the differences? What is “The Secret” and should it be embraced by people of all religions? Many questions about the societal megatrend need to be answered. www.thetruelight.net

Is it necessary to receive forgiveness from God? Is it necessary to forgive others? Though all positive religions emphasize the second, many do not embrace the first. Learn what Buddhism, Hinduism, New Age Spirituality, Shinto, and New Thought teach concerning this crucial issue. www.thetruelight.net

Learn to be more receptive to God's voice and the wisdom He shares. This teaching will help you more clearly identify when and how God is speaking to you. The Eternal Shepherd of our souls communicates 12 different ways to guide us into His divine order, His blessings, His will, and His purposes—a life-changing revelation.

Muslims and Christians hold ten similar beliefs that can help build a bridge of communication between the two worldviews. Use these points in your next conversation with a Muslim and see if it doesn’t open the door to sharing valuable revelation about Jesus (Issa) being the Savior of the world.

The world is full of religions that practice idolatry—the representation of various manmade deities in statues, images, or drawings that are used as objects of worship by devoted followers. Is this wrong? How does the true and living God feel about idolatry? www.thetruelight.net

Eight primary meditation methods are found in eastern religions and new age spirituality, such as breath meditation, chakra meditation, and mantra meditation. In the last episode, we focused on the true biblical approach to meditation; on this episode, we will examine non-biblical practices and arrive at some very important conclusions.

Almost all religions teach methods of meditation. Not all are acceptable to God. If meditation techniques are mechanical, mindless, monotonous, mundane, magical, or even overly mystical, they are probably the wrong approach. Biblical meditation is relational: the overflow of loving communion between the heavenly Father and His sons and daughters. www.thetruelight.net

From Masonic ceremonies to Luciferianism to the depiction of Greek gods and goddesses alongside George Washington, the capitol building in DC has been spiritually under siege since 1793. What does God think about this and what do we need to do? www.thetruelight.net

There is a belief among some Christians that the second coming of Jesus Christ is spiritual, not literal, that it will happen in His people, that there will be no visible return of Jesus to the earth, and that all the scriptures dealing with that blessed hope are metaphorical and should be spiritualized. Are they right?
