Predisposed To Sin And Opposed To Accountability

Contributed by Travis L. Billings on Sep 8, 2019

God has made it abundantly clear to mankind that we are responsible for our own sins and will have to give account to Him for our actions. We need to stop blaming others for what we do.

The Reality Of Accidents

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 5, 2021

Christians have different views of accidents. Some feel there are no accidents, but that all is God's will. In this message I make it clear that accidents are real and seldom ever God's will.

No doubt everyone of us has had our share of accidents. If not in a car, or with a knife, or some other sharp object whereby we cut ourselves, then all of us have at some point in our life fallen down. It is a part of growing up to fall down, and so it is hard to conceive that even baby Jesus did ...read more

The Apostle Of Love Addresses Sin

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Mar 20, 2017

Driven To Denial Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Nov 28, 2018

Although there were clear warnings, Peter ignored those and denied Jesus. We may tend to be critical, but we have been guilty of failing to heed the warnings of the Spirit. Warnings left unheeded are of no value.

Driven to Denial Mark 14: 66-72 The long night of pain and suffering for Jesus had begun, and the difficulty continued to mount. He suffered in agony, praying under a heavy burden in the Garden of Gethsemane. After His prayer had ended, Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, led a multitude, sent by ...read more

The Battle For The Mind

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Jul 25, 2021
