     | 48 views

Let not the one who eats despise the one who abstains, and let not the one who abstains pass judgment on the one who eats, for ...read more

    Unity Demands Theological Integrity

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 21, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 187 views

    Christians are united through commitment to biblical truth, which is reflected in love for Christ and for His people. Professed love without theological integrity destroys unity.

    “I have given [My disciples] your word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Sanctify ...read more

Even on the male and female servants in those days I will pour out my Spirit. “I will show ...read more

    Contributed by Michael Stark on May 24, 2025

What do I mean when I use the term “vulgar?” The ...read more

     | 463 views

And he found a Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to leave Rome. And he went to see them, and because he was of the same trade he stayed with them and ...read more

    Deceitful Religion

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 6, 2025

     | 322 views

    Jacob's sons distorted the Faith; the Shechemites attempted to co-opt the religious practices of the Israelites to enrich themselves. Both groups attempted to use religion to obtain their own ends, resulting in death and destruction. Deceitful religion always leads to ruin and destruction.

    “Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob, went out to see the women of the land. And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her, he seized her and lay with her and humiliated her. And his soul was drawn to Dinah the daughter of Jacob. He loved the ...read more
