There Is One Hope Series

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Apr 12, 2023

Living Water

Contributed by Samuel M on May 20, 2024

Living water first heals before infusing (bringing) Jesus' life into our lives to make us live. The living water heals our past, present, physical bodies, minds, and all that occurred as a result of the fall of mankind.

And it shall be that every living thing that moves, wherever the rivers go, will live.

Salvation - In Three Tenses

Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jun 16, 2024

Salvation is to be experienced by us in three tenses- past, present and future. We have been saved from the penalty of sin. Now we must be saved from the power of sin. Then finally, we will be saved from the very presence of sin.

It is a good saying that half-truth is even more dangerous than a lie. A lie we can detect at some point of time in the future. But if we believe a half truth, there is a possibility that we would never come to the full truth. Gospel is the gospel of God. It doesn’t need any human touch on it. It ...read more
