The Words of God?
by John Steinreich
|
"As I stood there transfixed on that tragic morning [September 11, 2001], staring at the repeated televised images of the calamity, as well as in the days that followed, I was overwhelmed by the fact that it was the religion of Islam that propelled the zealots who were responsible for those terrorist attacks ... I did not know whether it was authentic Islam or corrupted Islam that fueled the terrorist's fire ..."
As most of us, John Steinreich, the author of the new book The Words of God, (now available on Amazon.com) was shaken to his core by the unspeakable acts of September 11, 2001.

 How does our pace of life, especially for those of us in the first world, affect our walk with God, our relationships and family? While most of us would agree that our pace of life does affect these areas, and often in a big way, most of us just keep on living the same pattern.

This isn't a new concept, but it has recently exploded into popular culture and society's collective conscience. This Law of Attraction is one of the biggest spiritual cons of our time; a fake that has permeated not only the culture around us, but also the inner circles of our Christian communities. In order to prove this, let's examine this teaching in the light of the four components of any good con: truth, value, low cost, and a sneaky lie.
Truth: Watch The Secret, read The Power of Positive Thinking, or listen to Oprah in her New World series, and you will quickly realize that much of this idea rings true. Unquestionably, a negative outlook on life hurts us in many ways. It is also true that a positive attitude not only makes people want to be around us, but it is healthy and good.
