Three military recruiters are asked to speak at an auditorium packed with high school students. The Navy recruiter steps up first and spends twenty minutes discussing how great the Navy is and the benefits of being a part of it. Not to be outdone the Air force recruiter spends the next twenty-five minutes lauding his branch and speaking highly of the opportunities offered within.]]> hmullan<hmullan@nospam.com> Tue, 31 Aug 2010 19:31:29 -0500 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.198.11 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.197.11 hmullan<hmullan@nospam.com> Tue, 03 Aug 2010 13:55:11 -0500 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.197.11 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.196.11 Is dependency ever a good thing? Most would agree that dependency on drugs can certainly be an extremely destructive and debilitating condition but what about other dependencies? Gambling dependencies has led even the well off to poverty and extreme squander. Being dependent on the approval of the world makes even the believer impotent to do real good and stand up for what is right.

We can go on and on about how many forms of dependency we admit are bad, but there is a form of dependency that is becoming more acceptable even in the Christian community that is quite troubling. That dependency is a dependency on the government. ]]> hmullan<hmullan@nospam.com> Fri, 09 Jul 2010 12:51:28 -0500 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.196.11 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.193.11 hmullan<hmullan@nospam.com> Fri, 16 Apr 2010 14:29:48 -0500 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.193.11 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.191.11 hmullan<hmullan@nospam.com> Tue, 09 Feb 2010 14:20:19 -0600 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.191.11 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.156.11 In Galatians 3:28 God, through the apostle Paul, makes very clear
There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
God was stating that even though man considered these differences listed above, slave and free, Jew and Greek to be insurmountable, He would tolerate non of it. In Christ Jesus all mankind were on an equal footing. This is a consistent message throughout the New Testament.

Dr Martin Luther King agreed with this principal when he stated I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.]]> Editor<Editor@nospam.com> Mon, 18 Jan 2010 04:49:55 -0600 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.156.11 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.190.11 What greater love is there than to offer a slave their freedom?
Only the truth from Jesus can set men free. In John 8 we learn that freedom is wholly available to anyone who is willing to trust in and listen to Jesus.

In this account, the Jews who had historically been enslaved by many nations, spoke defiantly to Jesus claiming they had never been slaves to anyone. Their inaccuracy was not the result of misinformation but rather a willful decision to ignore the obvious. Infact so great was their desire to not admitt to this truth that they ended up accusing Jesus Himself of being posessed by a demon.]]> hmullan<hmullan@nospam.com> Thu, 14 Jan 2010 15:26:50 -0600 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.190.11 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.189.11 hmullan<hmullan@nospam.com> Thu, 07 Jan 2010 01:10:09 -0600 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.189.11 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.186.11 hmullan<hmullan@nospam.com> Thu, 24 Dec 2009 14:57:51 -0600 http://www.chemicalrecovery.org/news.php?item.186.11
