AtricleZine - A Conscience Is A Terrible Thing To Waste
Agents and publishers will make money if an author’s writing is successful. Publisher’s will get their money either after sales or up front. Agents get their cut after the royalties come in on the author’s sold book. If they do a good job, both deserve and earn what they make. The problem is with the publishers and/or agents who are not ethical.Let’s start with “publishers.” Some who ask for up-front money are legitimate, if they provide certain services such as professional editing, promotion, and production of a quality product. Those services should be included in the price paid for the books the author agrees to buy. However, if the “editing” provided is at best a spell check, then beware. A publisher will provide at least one professional editor who will work with the author to improve, tighten, and error-proof the book.
Simply put, we are naturally sinful and lustful creatures with no hope of redemption aside from Christ. Without Christ we will never please God. Nope...NEVER.
"So then those who are living the life of the flesh [catering to the appetites and impulses of their carnal nature] cannot please God, or be acceptable to Him." Rom. 8:8 (Amplified)
Ouch! That one hurt. As I take notice of the philosophies and the moral corruption in the youth of today, my heart just aches. These young people are not being taught and brought up in God's Word. The world has influenced th
Are you planning on selling a home? If so you may want to read this article. As a home seller you have to make a decision whether you will sell your home through a real estate company, for sale by owner or a combination of both. Not many sellers know they can do both—it all stems around the language of the listing agreement (contract) you enter into with the real estate agent and their company. If you are a smart negotiator you can have the ability to sell both ways expressed in the listing contract in a way that basically creates a “race” to sell the property between you and the agent. The concept is easy to do but hard to explain within the space limitations of this article—any real estate attorney can help you negotiate and write the face of the listing contract to reflect your dual selling option during the listing contract period. Actua
"For that which is known about God is evident to them and made plain in their inner consciousness, because God [Himself] has shown it to them." Rom.1:19 (Amplified)
If someone has an inner consciousness, they will also have a conscience. It's that inner voice or feeling that guides us through things. Either we obey or we don't, but no matter what we choose to do, our inner consciousness will leave us feeling satisfied or it will eat away at us with guilt. Where did this come from if a Creator didn't put it in us? It seems to be too far advanced to have been illogicaly evolved and what purpose was it meant for, if not to know the Lord?
"For ever since the creation of the world His invisible nature and attributes, that is, His eternal power and divinity, have been made intelligible and clearly discernible in and through the things that have been made (His handiworks). So (men) are without excuse [altogether without any defense or justification]." Rom. 1:20 (Amplified)
In other words, we can't look at any thing and say there is no God, because He made it all. Even Charles Darwin later admitted that he made a big mistake and realized his own theory of evolution was totally ridiculous, but unfortuneately it's still being taught in schools today. This is the world we live in and we need to take it back and make God the center focus as He created us. I just don't like thinking that I evolved from slime and from that into an ape and eventualy became who I am today. Rather, I love to believe that my Creator took alot of thought into my creation!
It's a fact that every human person is born into sin, it's a given. It's also a fact that God has given us a conscience in which to reach us. It's His way of letting us know we need some help. Guilt will result from wrong doing without ever being told. God put this into us so we could realize that we need a Savior to free us from guilt and condemnation. People are just naturally sinful creatures. Until a person accepts Christ, they are considered to be living life of the flesh. It's self pleasing, no matter who else may be hurt by it, including God. It's SIN!

The importance of ergonomics and sitting correctly in your office chair is becoming more and more important as the world is working longer hours sitting in front of the computer. With more and more repetitive motion injuries being reported every month, it is no wonder. Your office chair and how you use your workstation is critical to long-term health with good ergonomics helping you on the road to staying healthy and productive at your job.Sit Back in Your Chair, No Slouching:Good Ergonomic Chairs are designed for sitting for long periods of time, not to be sat upon like a stool. If you are able to sit you’re your spine straight and remember to slightly recline throughout the day, you will greatly reduce your risk of long-term injury. The slightly reclined position is now considered the desired ergonomic posit

Many people each day are searching the Internet for Internet marketing information, and even more are looking for business opportunities and how to make money online. I would say that anyone that wants to run any type of business online, should first invest some time and money into their Internet marketing training. Learning how to market on the web through courses or coaching will help develop your business much faster than you would with out it.Making an investment in your own Internet marketing training is an excellent way to build a solid foundation for a successful business online. When I say investment, I not only mean by buying a course but by taking the time to learn marketing principles and how to promote your business effectively.When buying an Internet marketing training course, make sure you choose one that teaches you st

If you’re a small business owner, you know just how tough it can be to get yourself and your products or services out there. Even if you’re picking up a franchise or moving into an area you know could be lucrative, often making a return on your investment is difficult—if not impossible. But it doesn’t have to be: no matter what size your business is, you just have to know how to sell it.• Friends: Your first stop for picking up any business should always be friends and colleagues. Remember these are the people who helped you get to where you are today—and more often than not, you’ll find them willing and eager to help. Always keep them posted of changes in stock, new promotions and special events where they can show you support.• Family: Of course your family has to help, right? Well, not necessarily—but if you ask them nicely a

One of the biggest mistakes poor salespeople make is that they lose control of the sales process. There are many ways they accomplish this feat. Here are a few for your consideration:1. They quote price – just because the prospect has asked (before they have had a chance to build value). 2. They don’t ask enough questions early in the sales process. They just ramble on. 3. They send out literature when asked, without first qualifying the prospect. 4. They deliver proposals to the prospect’s door and wait for an answer. To buy or not to buy, that is the question. 5. They fail to set appointments that are convenient to them – always bowing to the customer. 6. They lug equipment to demonstrate in the prospect’s office rather than getting the prospect to visit their office. 7. They don’t get deposits and hope the p

"So then those who are living the life of the flesh [catering to the appetites and impulses of their carnal nature] cannot please God, or be acceptable to Him." Rom. 8:8 (Amplified)
Ouch! That one hurt. As I take notice of the philosophies and the moral corruption in the youth of today, my heart just aches. These young people are not being taught and brought up in God's Word. The world has influenced them the way Satan has planned. Sexuality is taken so lightly and until the consequences catch up with them, (and they will) they are having a free for all. For example I know of one young man barely in his twenties who is paying child support for two young children and he has no intent of settling down with either one of the children's mothers. In fact these two half-siblings are only months apart in age. This young man continues to explore his sex life with as many women as he can. He thinks this makes him a "real man". Has he given any thought at all about what his children will say to him one day when he was not there for them? My bet is he hasn't thought that far ahead. And the really tragic thing of all is this pattern will be repeated in their lives one day unless they come to know Christ. Even when this young man does turn from his sinful lifestyle, he will still have to pay the consequences. God will and does forgive ALL sins, but He lets us learn from our tragic mistakes. These may last a life time.
God's Word tells us over and over again that lusts and desires of the flesh will destroy us every time. But Christ gives us all a new start. I'm so thankful that my Lord is forgiving of all my shortcomings.
"For the wages which sin pays is death, but the (bountiful) free gift of God is eternal life through (in union with) Jesus Christ our Lord." Rom. 6:23 (Amplified)
How do we come to Jesus? By confessing our sins and letting Him take control. God calls this being born again.
"I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, that unless a person be born again (anew from above), he cannot ever see (know, be aquainted with, and experience) the kingdom of God." Jn. 3:3 (Amplified)
Jesus said this in all seriousness. He was very solemn when He said this. Salvation is our "get out of jail" card in life's game board. If you don't accept Christ, you will be held a prisoner by Satan forever.
You might be saying, "But I'm a good person, I believe in God." But Christ Who is the living God says this;
"I am the Way and the Truth, and the Life; no one comes to the Father except by (through) Me." Jn. 14:6 (Amplified)
We can never hope to get out of jail unless we follow Jesus and go His way. He leads us in truth, (unlike the world does) and in return He gives us eternal life. There just is no other way. How do we go about doing this? Again we have directions for this too.
"Because if you acknowledge and confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and in your heart believe (adhere to, trust in, and rely on the truth) that God raised Him from the dead, you WILL be saved." Rom. 10:9 (Amplifie
