The Strange Children Of The Last Enemy

Contributed by Daniel Olukoya on Apr 17, 2009

The greatest fear of man is the fear of death. The fear of death does a lot of things to people. Hebrews 2:15 says, “And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.” So the fear of death can put a person in bondage f

The Danger Of Chronic Complaining Series

Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Feb 20, 2024

Make no mistake, murmuring is sin. "Do all things without complaining and disputing, that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world" (Phil. 2:14-15).

I want to write about a man who always complains and murmurs at all times. He is never satisfied with anything and always finds fault in every situation. He complains about his life, his job, his family, and even his church. He is like the Israelites in the wilderness, always grumbling and ...read more

Standing Before God

Contributed by Nickolas Kooi on Oct 24, 2019

What determines our standing before God? The Pharisee, tax collector, and disciples give us an answer.

Overwhelming Grace: The Prodigal Son, The Unjust Steward, And You!
