    No 'dead Dogs' In God's Eyes

    Contributed by David Mcnally on Jan 28, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,530 views

    The Bible says: 'Encourage one another'. So many people believe that if there is a God, He could not, should not love. If salvation is possible, that they are 'not good enough to be saved'. That they are unworthy or too sinful. This is a lie of the devil.

    OT – 2nd Samuel 9:1-13 NT – Matthew 5 verses 11-16 Sermon: No dead dogs to God ‘I feel like a dog!’ So someone said ‘How long have you felt like that?’ The answer was ‘Since I was a puppy!’. I know things are bad for many people. None of us and ...read more

    Salvation is by faith not works but believers should be aware that God is in us and part of us, and this should help to keep us from doing anything that He would not approve of.

    1st Corinthians 6:19-20 Our body - a Temple of the Holy Spirit We have all heard people say: "It's my body" and "I can do what I want so long as it doesn't hurt anyone else."
