    The Only Way To Salvation!

    Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Feb 6, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,677 views

    There is only one way to be saved. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through Me." Jesus is the only way to Heaven. Reject Him, and you reject everlasting life!

    Acts 4:12 says, "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under Heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved". Salvation is the theme of the text here; but what does salvation mean? When anyone is saved, does it simply mean that he or she is saved from ...read more

    Sooner or later the cock is going to crow, and if it's like the rooster across the way from my house, it could be...at any time! Like Peter, we are sinners in need of a Savior. But, like Peter, we have a hint that the rooster is going to crow, eventually, no matter what.

    Should We Change The Way We Do Church?

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jan 23, 2023
     | 3,639 views

    The decline in North American Christianity is prompting various efforts to revise the way we do church. Some of these efforts are clearly counterproductive. Acts 2:42-47 reveals eight practices that must be incorporated in any church model.

    Should we change the way we do church? That question is being asked by a lot of people in America. Something is not working as it should. Almost everyone agrees on that. For the first time in U.S. history, church membership fell below the majority according to a Gallup poll conducted in 2020. This ...read more
