    Problems With Oneness Theology Series

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 16, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,530 views

    Oneness theology denies the Trinity doctrine and claims that there is one person in the Godhead who has manifested himself in three different forms: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Is this belief true?

Please note, though, this is not saying there are three competing and separate gods (polytheism). The ...read more

     | 6,375 views

    Allow God to orchestrate the affairs of your life and be blessed. God is not a puppet-master in the sense that pulls all your strings 24/7/365; Rather think of it as Him being the master harpist.

    Reformed theology that God turned His back on Jesus on the cross. Is this Biblical?

This verse, and one from Habakkuk which states that God cannot bear to look upon evil were used to prove this. ...read more

    A paraphrasing of Jesus & the woman at the well. I used it as a Christmas Eve story explaining the real gift.

The story begins with Jesus sitting alone ...read more

    In our darkest night, when situations border on the shades of death, in our darkest hour when all help and comfort seems to flee, it is comforting to know that our weary and wandering spirit finds solace in the God of our salvation.

    Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
