Saved From Guilt

Contributed by Colin Mcgeer on Jul 6, 2023

Guilt can be crippling. Jesus did not come to condemn but to save. When Jesus died we died. We have been raised a new creation. No more the old guilty man

For more than 50 years I lived in guilt. Even though I knew I was forgiven by God. I had been abused at eight years old and I could never tell anybody about it. At least I felt I could not speak about it because I had made my abuse my own and I felt ashamed. In later years I felt afraid to be found ...read more

Contributed by Robert Butler on Jul 21, 2023

Evangelism is sharing the hope we have within us that many do not want to hear because it means admitting our rebellious, sinful nature AND there is a qualified to judge.

So maybe you’ve heard it said, ‘read your bible’ so you tried and failed. Our hope as leaders is that all of us will pick up God’s word and come to understand the true nature of God. After all, the bible is God’s Word curated over centuries detailing His nature, His will, the meaning of life and ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Nov 14, 2019

An in-depth, multi-part biblical look at "Deliverance Ministry," curses, "sins of the father," the position, rights and authority of every Born-Again Christian.

AMEN Now, by family I don’t necessarily mean family by some blood DNA, but family as “God’s Family”. If you really ...read more
