    In A World Gone Mad, Where Is God?

    based on 3 ratings
     | 8,844 views

    When we cry out "It's not fair," we are forgetting that God has fixed a day when He will judge the world in righteousness. Followers of the Christ must look to Him to make right the wrong that now permeates the world.

    “[God] has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed; and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead.” [1] Sexually frustrated men driving vans on city sidewalks intent on killing innocent and helpless women, out-of-control ...read more

    Colorful Marriages

    Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Dec 6, 2019
     | 2,190 views

    I love a chocolate and vanilla twist soft yogurt cone. Mixing flavors can bring about a beautiful and tasteful marriage experience. Yet, you do not mix gas and oil or saved and unsaved or one sect with another without peril.

    I saw an article on interracial marriage and since race has been a big issue in recent days I figured I would say just a bit on this topic. First of all, race as we use the term is really an evolutionary term and should not even be considered or used by believers. There are no races. There is but ...read more
