You're Right! You Don't Have To Get Baptized! Series

Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 15, 2013

It is interesting how we can allow what we have always been taught by others to affect how we look at what the Bible teaches. The subject of baptism is one such subject in which what many have always been taught leads them to suppress the truth.

I have had many discussions about the subject of baptism with people, and it never fails that sometime during the discussion, they just deny what the scriptures say about the topic. They at times just say, “I deny what you are saying about about baptism,” ignoring the fact that all I am ...read more

“he Was Tortured By The Romans” Series

Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Apr 20, 2015

The Romans tortured Jesus out of ignorance. But is that a justifiable excuse?

It’s interesting to contrast how the suffering of Jesus is portrayed. There are depictions that are rated PG. There’s hardly any blood; and Jesus looks more annoyed than in pain. There’s a heavenly glow around His head, as He gazes into heaven. Then there are depictions that more ...read more

Qualifying Sin

Contributed by Robert Sickler on Sep 21, 2015

It is very simple, when we fail to obey everything Jesus taught we are sinning; when we continue to sin we are living a sinful lifestyle; when we live a sinful lifestyle we are lost and going to hell.

QUALIFYING SIN Blinded By Ignorance People do not seem to enjoy hearing sermons about sin; perhaps that is why we seldom take the time to really preach on the definition of sin. We leave people with an unclear perspective on sin in their lives. As a result, people consider sinning to be ...read more
