It is very easy to circumvent Covenent Eyes and beat it. Here is a workaround that will let anyone watch any video or visit any website unmonitored:1. Go to Amazon App store and choose any Test-Drive App that has a built in browser. 2. Click on "Test-Drive," navigate to Google and enjoy any kind of video or website unmonitored - CE can't pick up any activity going through this Amazon service! Here is one example of such an app: http://www.amazon.com/Global- News/dp/B005G5GQQQ Enjoy! |

Really, it makes me sad when at a time that we should be awake to the spirit of this world that brothers and sisters of our Fathers Kingdom, are seeking to split hairs about what is God and what is not of God. Jesus said it like this when His disciples came to Him complaining about miracles : John said to Him, Teacher, we saw a man who does not follow along with us driving out demons in Your name, and we forbade him to do it, because he is not one of our band [of Your disciples]. But Jesus said, Do not restrain or hinder or forbid him; for no one who does a mighty work in My name will soon afterward be able to speak evil of Me. For he who is not against us is for us. (Mark 9:38-40 AMP)And then Jesus said to his disciple who wanted to know about John's future, " what's this to you? Follow me!" As you are very aware of the fact that satan is the accuser of the brethern .... Consider the spirit you are walking with. You may have your personal opinions, but keep them before God. For with the same measure that you are using against this brother it Will be Multiplied back to you! For the rest brethern. Think on these things, whatsoever is of a good report..... Build each other up in LOVE. This is not your job. Heed the Words of Love Himself. |

I hate to burst peoples bubles here, but the Bible DOES mention sins and abominations that WILL NOT be acceptable to God and WILL NOT allow the partaker of those sins to enter. People need to stop looking for excuses to live lazy and live wrong. They need to start looking for reasons to live RIGHT. The Bible says to DENY YOURSELF, take up the Cross and follow HIM - not our own lusts, not our own greed and not our own selfish ambitions. A lazy mind gives way to bad habits. The "once saved always saved" makes Christ and all of the penalties of sin, written in the book, as though it was written for nothing. If I want to believe that I'm "once saved always saved", I'll sit on the couch, skip work, drink beer all day, act no different than a Heathen and not even care because "once saved always saved", right? WRONG. Read your Bibles. |

All new Lockman Bibles are made in China now. And you can add Crossway to the list as the latest to downgrade.I just received my ESV Large Print Thinline Reference Bible in Top Grain Leather made by Crossway (ISBN: 1433532786). Nowhere on any of the advertisements or packaging does it say where it is made and I assumed since Crossway is making most of their Bibles in the USA that this one was too. Not so! I can't tell you how disappointed I was to see the "Printed in China" on the Copyright page. Crossway is making the move to China like everyone else. Not all of them are produced there yet, but we'll see how that goes. I called their customer service and the lady I spoke to, let’s just say, had received other calls about this same thing and was not too happy to receive my inquiry. She gave me the same reason that every other Bible manufacturer that has made the move to China. They are trying to make Bibles more economical for people. Well I see so many people out of jobs walking around with $500 cell phones complete with data plan. It is not really a matter of if we have the money; it is a matter of priorities. And Bible makers cheapening God's Word is not the solution to an increase in value. My belief is that if Bibles cost us more, we would value them more. |

On one hand, I don't have a problem with Bibles printed by Buddhists, Muslims or Atheists or whatever. But, I can't be sure that Buddhists or Muslims (Uihgers) are not being held at gun point by atheist communists.I can't risk my religion depending on that. Neither can you. I have slightly different standards for regular life and sacred spaces. I can't ask everyone to never buy anything from China, but I can ask people to never risk people being mistreated in the name of Jesus or my religion. (and don't dare ask people to be mistreated in the name of the H%%% Spirit..ever) One person mentioned that Zondervan is working with a group called Amity that they say is an honorable group. I hope that is so, but I still feel it is wrong. |

I was contacted several years ago by a rep from Strathmore - I'll admit, I was a skeptical, because I've been established in my industry for over 15 years, so the sudden interest in my business was both surprising and confusing. It was a back and forth battle, and I agreed to an introductory membership of 1 year - I'm not a hired gun for the company, and I can understand the distrust of anything that costs money, but my experience has honestly been nothing but positive. I've made several contacts in my field, and have since upgraded to a 5-year membership - and the plaque that I received, although many people seem to be bashing it, has been a useful tool in establishing credibility when an average Joe walks into my store and sees it. Spending less than $100 a year to bring potential business in has been worth it for me, but maybe it's a niche market depending on your industry or field. What I'd say to these "WHAT A SCAM" people on here is how established are you really? How successful are you really that a minimal investment in your business is a "scam"? |
