Sunday and Easter Presumptuous Sins?
Comments Off on Sunday and Easter Presumptuous Sins?, Filed in Videos, by CGP.
Presumptuous sins are willful sins, sins of taking to ourselves authority that is not our own, sins that take advantage of our pride.

Are we guilty of this kind of arrogance, relying on our own intellectual reasoning, instead of carefully following God’s instructions. Are the observance of Sunday and Easter presumptuous sins?

Life and Death: Assisted suicide, Who Decides?

Canada’s Supreme Court has just given the green light to “doctor assisted suicide” in spite of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms that supposedly guarantees a “right to life.” So who really has the right to decide whether you should live or die? Does God have something to say about this contentious issue of life and death?
