The Garden (Genesis 2)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jun 3, 2024

What are some lessons we can learn from the garden? This will probably make some people mad, but let's not be offended, let's search for God's will in our lives. We'll be in Genesis 2.

The first creation account does not actually end in Genesis 1, but continues into the next chapter. Let’s look at Genesis 2. Did God bless the seventh day from creation? Did God later reinstitute this day during the Exodus? Did Jesus or the Apostles command this day for the church? What spiritual ...read more

Gog And Magog: God's War On Israel's Enemies (Ezekiel 38-39)

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 13, 2024

Ezekiel 38-39 contains one of the greatest prophecies in the Bible, describing a massive invasion of Israel in the "latter years" by a great confederation of nations. The aftermath will show that God Almighty is the protector of HIs people.

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

This verse is often quoted in connection with various prayer campaigns, like National Day of Prayer and other times when we are called to seasons of prayer. We are familiar with this verse, but now let’s look at the background of this verse.

We know that prayer is the Christians vital breath of life. How is your prayer life? How long has it been since you really dwelt in the presence of God?

The Freedom Of Forgiveness
