Contributed by Grant Adams on Nov 13, 2019

Oaths and swearing are as common as food and clothing in our life today. This should not be so.

Oaths and swearing are as common as food and clothing in our life today. This should not be so.

Contributed by Grant Adams on Nov 13, 2019

Revenge might well be called the battle cry of the modern age. Everyone wants to get even or get back or get to someone else. The world is full of inequality and always will be.

Snoring Christians

Contributed by Bala Samson on Oct 1, 2020

Why this spiritual lethargy and carelessness? Where are the tears over the perishing? Where is the groaning? Where is the fasting and hard prayer for our loved ones who are lost, people we work with and for people who have never heard the Gospel??

The Christian And Riches Series

Nearsighted Christians Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 31, 2021

A Christian with spiritual myopia is all caught up with an entangled with what is under his nose, but he has lost the vision of the distant past and the upcoming future in God's plan. He is forgetful of the cross, and blind to the glory of the future.
