Sin: The Struggle, The Revelation
Contributed on Jan 31, 2021
Romans 3:23, "All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God." Even the Apostle Paul was one of the “all have sinned.” Only Christ was without sin. Paul sometimes disappointed people, sometimes made mistakes, and sometimes just plain messed up.

Last Words
Contributed on Jan 28, 2019
The Bible records seven last statements that Christ uttered while he was on the cross. While Christ was on the cross, he was doing his greatest work; he was uttering some of his greatest words.
Last Words. Not too long after my twenty-second birthday, I arrived in Vietnam, a machine-gunner in the 199th Light Infantry Brigade. My first combat was only a few days later. Combat tends to grow one up quickly. The man to my right, whose shoulder was only a foot away from my own, got a face ...read more
