    Contributed by Austin Mansfield on Jun 28, 2007
    based on 18 ratings
     | 5,872 views

    Jesus said “No one comes to the Father except by me.” It is clear then that not all religions are equal; that not all religions are true; and that not all religions lead us to God. Those that reject Christ lead us away from him.

    In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to you, Lord, my rock and my redeemer. Amen. (Psalm 19:14) In our pluralistic society today, we often hear people say that what someone believes in isn’t as ...read more

    In this series we are looking at the 5 Solas of the Protestant Reformation. This message is based on the 5th Sola. Everything we do is for the glory of God and God alone. This is where we find our purpose in life.

    “Who will get the Credit?” Romans 11:33-36 It has been said that history repeats itself. Now I believe that to a point but I think that it is more accurate to say that people repeat the same mistakes in the same choices and the same decisions others have made before them and that’s why history ...read more

The first was the elimination of the “fidelity and chastity” language from our ordination standards. The second one was the lordship of ...read more
