Visitation to the

Throne Room of God

by Peter Tan

In 1986 when the Lord Jesus Christ appeared to me, I was then sitting on a sofa chair. He stood in front of me on my left. I thought He had come to answer one of my prayers - which was to visit heaven. So I put out my hand and told the Lord, "I am ready to go." The Lord smiled at me and said it was not time for me to go yet. He began to talk about other things like the anointing of the Holy…

Your worldview is your philosophy of life—the way you look at the world.  ‘Could be a Christian worldview which has its inception in God the Creator, or a secular one, which probably does not.  Either way, how you look at life on a daily basis is affected by it.  Whether life seems to be ordered or random, including one’s sense of purpose, is affected by personal worldview.

Some people just ask the hard questions earlier in life, I guess.  She had a head full of blonde curls and big…

This is my first post. Though a little drawn out, be patient. There is a blessing at the end.

If we are to consider the attributes of God the following traits come to mind. He is loving, kind, full of grace, compassionate,…

I don't understand people...I hear so many stories about trials & tribulations...hurdles that people find difficult to surpass...it saddens me because human beings run away from others who deal with the above mentioned. You need to be a child of God and as a human being, help others in need. God has always accepted us as His children -- regardless of our mistakes, He has always loved us, helped us, and been there for us. We need to look at that as an example and although we cannot be…

Oprah made the term ‘spiritual’ very popular—think about it.  However, on the last day of her show she seemed to fully claim Christianity.  What does it mean to say that we are a Christian?  Many people call themselves ‘Christian’ but if asked to define what they believe, they would be hard pressed to explain just what a Christian believes.

These are the non-negotiables, and the Scriptural support for them:  Essentials of the Christian Faith

1.  In the beginning, God.…

I couldn’t duck the question anymore.  Truthfully, there is a part of me that would like to avoid answering the question.  I just know too many women who put great stock in what Oprah has to say . . . I know too many women who plan their afternoons to watch—and even more who record to watch at their leisure—her daily program. 

‘Wondering about a person’s stance on anything?  Listen to what she says, and then take a look at the positions she espouses.   “I am a Christian who believes…

MARRIAGE is instituted by God.The principles of marriage must be taken from the Bible to ensures it's success. Many marriages fall apart because husbands and wives do not know the Biblical concept of marriage. What does God teach about marriage?

Malachi 2: 14

"Why has God abandoned us?" you cry. I'll tell you why; it is because the Lord has seen your treachery in divorcing your wives who have been faithful to you through the years, the companion you promised to care…

And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.

“The Lord shut him in.” - Genesis 7:16 Noah was shut in away from all the world by the hand of divine love. The door of electing purpose interposes between us and the world which lieth in the wicked one. We are not of the world even as our Lord Jesus was not of the world. Into the sin, the gaiety, the pursuits of the multitude we cannot enter; we…

Before I launch deeper into the worldview/Oprah discussion, I felt prompted to send this today.  There is nothing like the truth and power found in the Word of God.  I am confident that there are some of you who need to consider God’s promises to you at this very time . . . Pakistan?  Ghana?  UK?  Singapore?  The Philippines?  Wherever you find yourself, in whatever circumstances – these promises are for you.

Promises are significant and telling.  When someone keeps his promises to…

What am I for?

As time has gone on, I have taken a stand on some issues here at AllAboutGod.NET, for which I sometimes get accused of being offensive, hostile or an agitator. None of those are my goals, nor my heart. I did not come here to offend, I came here to be a blessing and hopefully be an agent of the Love of Christ. I am not for anything or anyone, but the Gospel of Christ; I do not represent any church, denomination or group. I would…

Prosperity, a sacred treasure:

Prosperity is not ~ to produce a tangible fortune,

It is to succeed;

Success is not ~ to gain money,

It is to progress;

To progress is not ~ to expand worldly possessions,

It is to mature in character;

Maturity hasn’t a matter in common with money or appointed authority,

Maturity denotes a conduct that builds positive characteristics,

It embodies the persona of…

What is your worldview?  We’ve all got one . . . a worldview.  Simply, it is the way we see the world . . . our philosophy of life.  Whether or not we have articulated it, we live by it every day.  Our worldview is shaped by many things—upbringing, education, what we read and watch, (Oprah), opinions of friends and family, and the culture in which we live.

The question I put before you today is this:

              Is your worldview a godly one?

                     Is it…

Colossians 3

Living as Those Made Alive in Christ

Contentment seems elusive these days. 

I sat across from her at lunch today, as she told me “something is missing from my life”.  To look at her, you certainly wouldn’t think that!  I mean, she is attractive, affluent, of mature age and wisdom, well put together, confident, and has been in a friendship with God for many, many years.  Yet she is unsettled.  After talking for a while, I think we hit on the reason.  Perhaps her struggle might just define yours, so let’s talk.  Yesterday…

This is the day the Lord has made.  I will rejoice and be glad in it!  The psalmist said it, but my heart is right there with him today.  I am sitting on the beach, looking out at the Pacific Ocean, and remembering.  Driving the two miles down the hill from my SoCal house, ‘me and my posse of boys’ noted how many American flags were displayed.  Today is that day that Americans have designated Memorial Day – a day to remember those who have sacrificially served our country.

I wish to…
