Are We Ready?

The Helmet Of Salvation Series

Our Change Of Masters

Contributed by Grant Adams on Apr 15, 2023

Man was made to rule. When God created man, he gave him priority over all things. Yet it is equally true that man was made to serve.

In the beginning, man was placed in the garden to keep it and to address it. He was to serve his maker. We find within man a war, two great forces seeking the mastery of his life. Galatians 5:17. Evil and good, sin and righteousness. If evil seeks to rule man, so also the good spirit. That spirit ...read more

The End Times Series

Someone asked: “What’s all the fuss? Why are some Christians giving so much attention to the end times? There are so many different theories. Everyone thinks his or her theory is right. Where did these theories come from? It is all very confusing.

Depending on what you’ve heard, it certainly can be confusing. However, it should give us great comfort to know that God has a plan for our world, and it is all coming together according to His Divine purpose. Almighty God, who knows the end from the beginning, will make sure that everything turns ...read more
