Earlier this year I was struck by how uncivil our society has become. I can’t remember if it was a personal encounter with someone or something I saw on the news or read on social media. But I do remember thinking: Why can’t we just be civil to each other, what can’t we just be nice? It seems that ...read more

Jesus Christ stands as heaven’s Commander—our Defender, Champion, and Warrior—declaring in every battle that no one is like God.

Faith Not Legalism (Galatians 3)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Apr 18, 2024

What about Christians who insist on the works of the law? Is the law continued in spirit, discontinued in the letter, and thus transformed ...read more

Illus: John was like some people we meet. They do not say a lot, but they have the most to say when they do ...read more
