| 212 Degrees--Boiling Point Get On Fire For God!! |
| What is 212 Degrees--Boiling Point?? Are you wondering exactly what this thing is? Follow the link above to find out the mission statement and purpose for this new Christian zine! |
| SNACK SHACK The Bible says that man (and the rest of us) does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of God. Soooooo, why not grab a dr. pepper (or soda of your choice) and some chips (hey, fat grams and calories don't count on-line!!) and check out these "snacks" from God's Word. :) | TELL THE WORLD The Bible says to confess with your mouth what God has done for you...where He's brought you from...and what He's doing in your life. Tell the world!! This section of 212 Degrees--Boiling Point is set aside for testimonies. Maybe something you've gone through or are in the middle of right now can help someone else in their situation. Maybe God can use your testimony, your story, to bless someone else and in turn bless you as well. And maybe you can benefit from something someone else has to say. If nothing else, testifying results in giving glory to God, and THAT is our divine purpose! |
| MAIN STAGE This is the place where you can find all kinds of Christian music news. From reviews on the latest albums, to the artists' testimonies, to links to Christian music sites. This is the place to be! |
| POETRY CORNER Welcome to the Poetry Corner! Make yourself at home. There's some giant bean-bags to sit on over in the corner over there... Do ya still have some snacks left from your visit to the Snack Shack? If not, help yourself to some refreshments...the ones laid out on that table over there... Now that you're all settled in, enjoy the selection of poetry for this issue of 212 Degrees--Boiling Point. | ISSUES WE FACE Do you ever wonder if God's Word has any practical advice concerning the issues we face today? Well, guess what! The Bible has plenty to say about most of our modern-day problems and concerns. Maybe it doesn't actually use the same terms we do now...but as King Soloman advised in Ecclesiastes, "there is nothing new under the sun". The Bible was written a long time ago, times have changed a little since then. But God hasn't changed a bit, and neither have his commands! So, let's explore some and see just what the Bible does have to say concerning some of the issues we face today. |
| KNOW THE TRUTH When you get depressed it is easy to *feel* like no one cares, like God is far away, and like you are very much alone. As Christians we are supposed to go by what we *know* and not by what we *feel*. What do you *know* about God? What kinds of things does the Bible tell you for certain about God? And what kinds of things has God shown you personally about himself? In this part of 212 Degrees--Boiling Point we are going to keep a running list of things we *know* to be true about God. But I also want to challenge each of you to start your own list on a regular piece of paper or notebook. Add to your list every day, and when you start feelilng depressed or alone, turn back to your list and see how awesome God is!! Know The Truth!! |
THINK ABOUT IT Throughout the Bible we find many parables that Jesus told the disciples and crowds that gathered around him. He used these parables to help make it a little easier and clearer to understand some of the harder things he was trying to tell them. These parables really caused people to think, back in Jesus' time and now in our time. Well...these "parables" featured here aren't from God's Word, but the messages behind them are. Read them and see if they cause you to "think about it". |
| SPECIAL INSERT ARTICLES This section of 212 Degrees--Boiling Point is for all the special insert articles that are not for a regular column, but are just as important to read! :) I hope you enjoy them!
