About me - Ashley Newton

I am a teenager with a desire to spread the truth. And I do not like to talk about things simply based upon opinion. I enjoy "proving what i preach" as you will hopefully see in my articles. I have absolutely no problem with hearing your thoughts on my work,

Education > Education (Other) Should children have cell phones at school?: 3 of 60
Children should not have cell phones at school. I do understand that the initial purpose of having a cell phone is to minimize unnecessary trips to get things accomplished. And the use of cell phones can save us in sticky situations. But when a cell phone is given to a child of any age, there is room for negative activity. A ... More..
Parenting & Pregnancy > Teens (Other) Should schools give teens birth control?: 2 of 15
The answer is definitely not! Birth control should not even be a concern of the school system. The school was originally set in place to accomplish one goal. And that goal is to educate and prepare children for their future. Apparently, the educational system has lost sight of this somewhere along the way. But don't get me wr... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Christian Doctrine & Issues Is it necessary to be baptized in the name of Jesus?: 3 of 22
OF COURSE! Acts 2:38 (KJV) - Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. This scripture is quite plain about the baptism, yet the following scripture seems to baffle numerous minds. Matthew 28:19 (K... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Christian Beliefs & Culture Judas Iscariot: Good guy vs. bad guy?: 7 of 34
Yes, there are most definitely two sides to every story. And it is to my knowledge that the Bible (KJV) states that everyone one is born in sin and shaped in iniquity. I refuse to say assuredly that Judas Iscariot was born with a foul heart. Indeed, there must have been something in him that even resembled Godliness, otherwis... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Christianity (Other) Reflections: God provides, He always does: 6 of 16
I remeber being in my English class in the eleventh grade. And I sat next to a boy whom I will call Kev. Kev was a unique character, just like everyone else in the room. But one week I recall seeing Kev come to class and not say a word to anyone about anything at all, which was highly unlike himself. So I took it upon myself ... More..
Celebrations & Holidays > Easter The pagan roots to Easter traditions: 4 of 10
Many people celebrate the holiday known as Easter without knowing the history behind it. Easter is a pagan holiday and was originated long before Jesus was even born. So how can one say that they are celebrating it because it symbolizes the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ? The history of Easter is quite lengthy, so bea... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Spiritual Insights Is it possible live a life without sin: 19 of 46
How does one even ask such a "profound" question with such a simple answer? The answer is written in various locations throughout the Holy Bible (KJV). In Matthew 5:48 (KJV) Jesus said, "Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect." And what he meant by perfect, is, free from sin, doing all that... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Religious Speculations & Criticisms Does the Bible allow women of the church to teach men?: 3 of 5
Indeed, this is a touchy subject, hence the amount of articles that have been written about it. I have skimmed the previous articles and do somewhat agree with what has been mentioned. To answer this question, I will refer to I Timothy 2:12 (KJV). It states, "But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the ... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Christian Beliefs & Culture The "must" factor in being born again: 4 of 6
I would usually start this article with the words, "It is my opinion that...." But the answer to the topic addressed is not of opinion, but of fact. It is Jesus's intention that every soul be born again, leading to eternal life with himself. Unfortunately, numerous citizens misunderstand and misinterpret the Word of God, lead... More..
Relationships & Family > Gay & Lesbian Issues Marriage should be a sacred institution between only a woman and a man: 118 of 156
In order to discover the official answer to this statement, one must consult the Holy Bible. I myself am in agreement with the comment that marriage should be a sacred institution between only a woman and a man. Of course, in the beginning, God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve, not Amanda and Eve. That act alone shoul... More..
