A Journey To A New Beginning

Contributed by Raymond Lu on Aug 8, 2010

To reform is to become a better person. That is what reformatories intend to do. But to transform means death to our self and to be spiritually born into Christlikeness. That is what the Holy Spirit can do.

Won’t We Get A Second Chance? Series

Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 20, 2011

Universalism suggests that everyone will be saved because they will realise their error shortly after death. God warns that such thinking is wrong, and now calls all people to life in His Son.
