    Our faith and the natural moral law written on our hearts, and basic human biology all agree

     | 2,200 views

    During the days after the Civil War up thru the 1960s, there were many "Christians" in the U.S. who embraced bigotry and mistreated the black people around them. Why would supposed Christians do that, and how do we protect ourselves from that kind of evil?

He once said: “The time is always right to do what is right.” Today, our sermon is going to be on racism, not because I think any of us are racist - but because, as Christians, we need to know what the Bible says about it. Martin Luther ...read more

    Intro: Jesus told this woman, that if she had only known "the gift of God" and who it was that she was talking with, she would have asked of Him to give her to drink. This world seems to be in the same condition as was this woman. Satan blinds people as to the true identity of the Lord Jesus ...read more
