Part 2 BRIDGING BELIEFS: Communicating the Christian Faith to Hindus

Hinduism is a vast faith with around one billion followers, emphasizing concepts like karma and samsara, which relate to life’s cycles and spiritual liberation. The pursuit of moksha, liberation from these cycles, is central to Hindu belief, but Christianity offers an immediate path to salvation through Jesus Christ’s death and resurrection. Key theological distinctions exist between the two faiths, regarding the nature of God, humanity, and salvation. The article encourages respectful dialogue while sharing the gospel, highlighting the transformative message of Christ as fulfillment and offering hope beyond the cycle of karma, alongside affirming equality and unity in God’s image.

Exploring Mars, Embracing God’s Creation: A Pastor’s Reflection on Science, Scripture, and Salvation

As pastor of En-Joy Ministries, I marvel at God’s creation through space exploration, from NASA’s Mars rovers to the Space Shuttle’s legacy. Yet, as a young Earth creationist, I reject carbon dating’s flawed billions-of-years claims, affirming a 6,000–10,000-year-old universe per Genesis. Mars’ Jezero Crater, possibly once a lake, declares God’s glory, not alien life. Humanity, one race from Adam and Eve, is Earth’s focus. I pray Elon Musk, via SpaceX, finds Christ, his influence glorifying the Creator. Let Mars and the cosmos point us to Jesus (Romans 1:20, Psalm 8:9).

The Creator’s Hand: Four Scientific Evidences Pointing to God’s Design

The universe’s precise order, sudden beginning, fine-tuning for life, and the complexity of cells reveal God’s purposeful design. Romans 1:20 declares His eternal power is evident in creation.

As pastor of En-Joy Ministries, I invite you to follow science’s path to God, worshipping Him for His divine plan revealed in the cosmos and life itself.

A Pastor’s Call to Pray for Donald Trump and Elon Musk

As a pastor, I’ve long prayed for Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s salvation. Trump’s life was spared by divine intervention, yet his actions don’t clearly show Jesus as his Savior. Musk’s SpaceX work reveals creation’s wonders, prompting my message to him about Romans 1:20. Both need Christ to have their names in the Lamb’s Book of Life (Revelation 20:15). Join me in praying: Father, lead Trump and Musk to accept Jesus’ sacrifice (1 Peter 1:18-19), that their influence may glorify You. Amen.

Oil’s Not Dino Juice—So Why Fossil Fuels? A Young Earth Take

Oil’s Not Dino Juice—So Why Fossil Fuels? A Young Earth Take What if everything you’ve heard about oil taking millions of years is wrong? Growing up, I pictured oil as squashed dinosaur goo, but that’s a cartoon myth. Oil’s really from ancient sea plankton, not T-Rex. Still, science slaps “fossil fuel” on it, claiming it […]
