    based on 9 ratings

    things Jesus defeated on the cross

    Intro: Romans 1:15—Paul states he was eager to preach the cross. Everywhere he went his message included the cross. Why was he so persistent in preaching this subject?

    There are phrases we’ve heard and used over the years that are not true even though we use them as if they were.

    This morning, we’re going to talk about the “The Lies (L-I-E-S) That We Believe “ And the reason I titled it “The Lies We Believe” is because that’s what the Lord told me to title it.
