Three Ways We Sin

Contributed by Jenny Franklin on May 28, 2022

I was going door-to-door. I met a woman who said, “I have never sinned.” I knew this wasn’t true. It couldn’t be true; the Bible tells me this is not true.

None does good, no not one. Romans 3:12, Psalm 14:3 All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23 We are all like sheep; we’ve gone astray: everyone has turned to his own way. Isaiah 53:6 I’m reminded of the story of “The Rich Young Ruler,” recorded in Matthew 19:16-26, Mark ...read more

Three Ways To Deal With God

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 30, 2022

In this sermon, I want to deal with a STATEMENT we find in the scriptures that says, “There is no God!”

But we definitely need to put this statement into context. The whole verse says, “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.” Since God can not be seen, some foolishly say there is no God. Now if He could be seen they would not be able to state that. But just because we can not see Him ...read more
