    Sometimes we think that battling for the Lord ought to be easy. I mean, here’s a Guy who created the universe by talking!

It was given to the disciples, the followers of Jesus, and reveals much practical application to the lives we live. In our last ...read more

  • Idols

    Contributed by Je Layugan on Oct 17, 2023
     | 2,177 views

    To become a fan is generally fine. “Everyone is a fan of something or someone, but we must exercise caution and be mindful of the dangers of idolatry. Because a simple admiration or desire can turn into idolatry. Idolatry is often a good thing that becomes a "god thing". That will ...read more

    Do you feel a lack of growth? It could be that you are experiencing the effects of bad doctrine or that you need to re-connect to the root - Jesus Christ.

    The Colossians were Christians - they knew Jesus as their Savior. But what threatened them in the proto-Gnostic heresy was a lack of maturity.
