We argue over the best methods to win people, including whether we should have altar calls. Perhaps we should stick to the message.
A Proper Altar Call Acts 2:37-41 The “Altar Call” plays a very important part of many Evangelical worship services. We want people to accept Christ as Savior. This is right because the Scripture states that God Himself is not willing that any perish. Considering the dread alternative of eternal ...read more

The world emphasizes the importance of putting yourself first, and being the greatest. Jesus' disciples argued about who among them was the greatest, the most loved, the most important.
The Greatest of the Kingdom Mark 9:30-37 As they walk along, Jesus tells the disciples what to expect in the coming days. He says, "The Son of Man is being handed over to the hands of men, & they will kill him; & when he is killed, on the third day he will rise again" (Mark 9:31). Now, ...read more

I choose not to argue with the words of God found in the Quran, Torah, or Holy Bible because the truth must be spoken whether it offend our sinful souls or not.

He is the God found in the Quran as well as the Holy Bible. Now in all of the aforementioned books, the reader digest versions of God ...read more

Ordinary Proper 20: The disciples argued about who was the greatest. Jesus told them that He - the Creator - would be betrayed and be killed. Jesus showed greatness through humility.
What a ride! Can you imagine – I mean can you even begin to imagine – hanging out with the Creator of the universe!?! To see Him smile; to hear Him teach; to watch Jesus as He lived life with the zest and with the love that our Creator intended from the beginning – what a rush! But I wonder if ...read more
