Intellectual property theft (IP theft) is a serious and difficult crime to combat that has been increasing steadily for several decades. Intellectual property basically consists of ownership of an intellectual creation, i.e., something that a person comes up from his own mind.

Being A Servant: The Path to Greatness
What is the whole work of a servant? It is to serve. Even though Jesus is God and King, He gave up all claims to honor and glory in order to be a servant to man. Since He was willing to yield Himself to the lowest position of a servant in order to serve the…
A Victim of the Wrong Destination
Many think that they can just get on a track that seems right when it comes to really finding God and entering Heaven and they will surely arrive at the feet of God Himself, along with everyone else on other parallel tracks. The Bible spoke of this and its outcome thousands of years ago: “There…
Faith or Just Hope?
Is the object of our faith… just a hope that a plane will get us to our destination? Or do we place our faith in the pilot with his wisdom, training and experience… to get us to where we are to go as safely as possible? How often the child of God feels inadequate when…
A Lie in Disguise or Truth Unclothed?
We live our life as a façade. We have pretty curtains on the windows with a nice welcome mat on the front step, and at the same time, we surround everything with a massive wrought iron fence. Our doors are padlocked and dead-bolted, but the painted stucco covering the walls is magnificent. The front yard…
Living Simple and Dependent on God
In this world, a little child is generally considered to be at the lowest level in society regarding knowledge, maturity, experience, and gullibility. Yet in God’s plan, this concept is completely the opposite. We are to be completely dependent on God and not on our self. He looks with great favor upon little children, more…
No Fence is Superior Than Jesus
A simple chain-link fence was all that separated me from the Great Blue Heron standing at the pond’s edge. Hoping for the “perfect shot,” I carefully inched closer, camera in hand. With each successive step toward the fence, the heron became more wary of my presence. I slowly raised my camera to the fence top,…
The Way to Greatness is “Wash my feet?”
“…He poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith He was girded. Then …Peter saith unto Him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet? …Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.”…
Is Jesus the Focus of Our Faith?
Where is the main focus of our faith? Is it in the head of a religious organization, or maybe the person speaking at a church service? Is it in what is written in the Bible or our effort spent in reading it? Is it in the actions of an alluring individual healing the sick? Is…
Pushing Fear Out of Your Life
Whether it’s something small, like a pen running out of ink in the middle of an important exam, or something major, such as a bomb detonating on an airplane, there will be fear in our life. None is exempt from having this, regardless of age, background, standing in society, or physical location. Now fearing something,…
Pleasing God by Faith
“…without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.” Hebrews 11:6 We all encounter many kinds of complications as we go through life. Most people go along with no hope of going through…
Worry Over Food, Clothing, and More?
Jesus specifically said, “Take no [distracting] thought for your life…” So why do you concern yourself with “what ye shall eat…drink…put on…”? Does He really want you to worry and constantly anxious, distressed, or puzzled about how to get what you need? Having this attitude leads to despair and unbelief, which do not honor God….
