Late, Yet On Time

Contributed by Wann Fanwar on Jul 19, 2006

This sermon deals with a simple biblical truth: God’s ways and his sense of timing are not the same as ours. Many times God does not seem to fit our schedule. However, his ways and his time are best.

He is frequently late. For the sceptical among you, allow me to elaborate. Some people are ...read more

The Cross And The Conscience

Contributed by Chris Mccall on Feb 5, 2007

God gave man a conscience. No animal has this gift. It is an internal ability to discern what is right and what is wrong. That is why the laws of most nations are basically the same, even if the Bible is not the basis of their laws
