    Since God has shown us such great love in dying for us & saving us, we should respond with love for Him. As we do, our Father transforms us into the children He would have us be. Are you the Christian God would have you be?

    INTRODUCTION: Psychologist Karl Menninger asked this most significant question: WHATEVER HAPPENED TO SIN? This is a haunting question. It lingers with us, and must be addressed from the perspective of Holy Scripture, and with undaunting courage. * - TODAY, we want safe sex, so people in our ...read more

The foundations of true friendship as you meet people for the first time and you know that there will be a bond between you. I have friends like this that after years we can get ...read more

    John goes to great lengths at the start of this passage to assure us that we are members of God’s family now. It’s not how we live that guarantees us a place in God’s family. We are God’s family. But how we live shows that.

    So what is to be the Christian's relationship to sin? Strictly speaking, he should not have such a relationship!

    THE CHRISTIAN AND SIN. 1 John 3:1-10. “Behold,” says John. Pause for thought and reflection. For it is indeed a wonderful demonstration of God's love that “we” should be called the sons of God (1 John 3:1). This was not what we deserved, but as we know from other Scriptures, it was ‘while ...read more

    With the day to day, the endless list of things that need to be done, the never ending mountains and valleys Christians all too often get lost in the lies of the world and need a gentle reminder of who they are - A Child of GOD!
