    Can A Christian Use Marijuana?

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Aug 28, 2015
     | 5,867 views

    With the legalization of the recreational use of marijuana, the Christian must evaluate if using pot is an acceptable practice or a sin.

    In those States where the use and sell of Marijuana is illegal, the answer is straightforward. The Christian must abide by the laws of secular government (Romans 13:1-2, 5) which means that the use and sell of Marijuana is clearly prohibited. As our Nation moves closer to the legalization of ...read more

    The Trial Of Our Christian Faith

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Sep 10, 2015
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,381 views

    When we talk to the genuinely curious, we show God’s love. We show that we want to be with God and want others to be with him. We will love the things and people that he loves. We will hate the things and people that he hates. We will love others.

    The reading we heard from John 5:30-47 a few minutes ago takes place during a “trial”, but it was not held in a courtroom. Jesus had just healed the paralyzed man at the pool of Bethsaida, and the healing took place on the Jewish Sabbath. The Jews had strict rules about what could and ...read more

    The only problem with lying is that God takes it a lot more seriously than we do.

     | 4,570 views

    Jesus wasn’t focusing on outward performance like going to church, giving, or serving. His concern was to mark out how a disciple should be on the inside.

    When’s the last time you heard someone say, “If you want to succeed in life, try being meek?” Or, “If you want to rise to the top and get somewhere in life, display meekness along the way?” Unfortunately, meekness isn’t a valued quality in our day. The ...read more
