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.

The Fears Of The Faithful Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 29, 2021

The Eternal Word Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 29, 2021

When the Bible is no longer our ultimate authority then only weakness can follow. The strength of the past came from Bible educated people.

And that the first murderer in the Bible was Pilate? And that Isaiah was the son of Solomon? These are some ...read more

Cross Purposes 3: Redemption Series

Contributed by Vic Folkert on Dec 13, 2019

Redemption is like purchasing a slave to free them. Jesus 1) made a personal investment, and 2) paid a price. We are free as we 1) recognize our worth, and 2) chooses to be slaves of God.

CROSS PURPOSES 5: REDEMPTION For the past 4 weeks, we have been asking, “Why did Jesus Christ, the Son of God, die on the cross for us?” We keep asking the same question, because the cross impacts our lives in so many ways, that we can’t exhaust them all: The cross shows the love of God. ...read more
