     | 6,469 views

    Are Christians bound by the Law of Moses? As a result of misinterpretations of God's word, unsubstantiated allegations AND misperceptions that arise from misguided Biblical teachings, the church is MORE divided today than EVER.

    “For it seemed good to the HOLY SPIRIT, AND to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things: that you ABSTAIN from things offered to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality. If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. Farewell.” ...read more

    Sexual Immoraity In America

    Contributed by Steve Greene on Feb 4, 2020
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,569 views

    One of the clearest indicators of rebellion against God is the blatant rejection of God's guidelines for sex. When we sin sexually, we hurt ourselves, we hurt others, and we break the heart of God.

    We are ALL broken people born into a broken world. The evidence of that brokenness often shows up most obviously in the area of our sexuality. So many people—professing Christians included—are willing to give their heart to God, but it seems like they want Him to stay out of their bedroom and out ...read more
