Prepare For Revival Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 5, 2022

Revival affects our relationship to God, but also to one another. Peter talks about how as our salvation affects us it should give us a love for the unlovely. Jesus goes so far as to say, by this will all men know that you are my disciples that you love one another.

"Peter, Feed My Sheep” (2 Of 21)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 11, 2022

How Holiness Theology Transformed My Understanding Of Christianity

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 27, 2021

Let me begin by saying that you should trust the scriptures over the words of any men. We must trust the scriptures much more than Luther, Calvin, Arminius, Wesley, Edwards, Whitefield or any Pope or bishop.

"As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, since it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.” -1st Peter 1:14-16 ESV Let me begin by saying that you should trust the ...read more
