Take Up Your Cross Series

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 7, 2016

What are we projecting to other people about our service to the Lord if we are complaining about it instead of having fun while we are doing it? We get hung up when people in the world try to trip us up and slow down our walk to a crawl.

The Law Removes The Offense Of The Cross Series

Contributed by John Lowe on May 5, 2020

The apostle was accused by the false teachers of teaching circumcision in some places, and they said they were teaching no more than he taught. Or it may have been inferred from the fact (which was undoubtedly true) that Paul in general complied with the customs of the Jews when he was with them.
