Compte Donatien Alphonse Francois de Sade (1740 - 1814), better known as the Marquis de Sade, was a famous French atheist and writer. He spent 27 years of his adult life in the prisons and insane asylums of the French monarchy, the French Republic, the revolutionary terror and Napoleonic Imperial France.
In short, his sexual perversion and cruelty was restrained by every form of French government of his time.

The Bible is liberal. That's a statement that would make most any modern political commentator cringe.
I will show you that if the Bible's laws were implemented in today's society some modern laws (certainly not all) would actually have to be liberalized to conform to the Bible.
Secular people claim that the Bible is an ancient book that spoke only to an ancient society.

One of the things we all have in common is that sometime in our lives we all experience times, technology, terror, tears and truth. We experience what the times do to us - times of exultant joy, times of deep grief, times of unbelievable passion, times of unbearable loss, times of quiet calm, times of heartrending sadness, times of undying love and times no one can comprehend.

If you can, imagine that the direction and will of God are moving in a given course like a mighty River. You want to move in the same direction that God is moving, so you get into the River. When you are in the River, you start learning how the River works - how it flows, the direction it is going. You learn not to fight it if you want to end up where the River is going.

Mark 11:26. "Then your Father in heaven will forgive your sins." (Contemporary English Version)
We all want to be forgiven but we aren't so sure that we need to, want to, or can forgive others. Because of course, what they did to us was worse then the sins we did to them or to other people in our lives. Deep down, we know there are many people we need to forgive, even though they do not deserve it.

Finding the Lord and welcoming the Holy Spirit into your heart can change your life. It can fill you with a peace that is unexplainable. However, as Christians we are compelled to take action once we have come to know the Lord.
If you are a believer, you must take action and share your faith with others. When you evangelize, you are becoming a shining light to the world and a disciple doing the Lord's work.

If Jesus was suppose to be a warrior king, then why did He come as a peacemaker? Why did Jesus associate with the poor, prostitutes, tax collectors and those who were considered to be sinners? Why was Jesus crucified when all He did was good works during His lifetime?
Many great theologians of the Bible try to answer these questions by asking even more questions.
