My dad used to say this all the time when I didn’t complete my chores or just do what he said in general. Now, some of you have probably imitated your parents and now you say the same thing or ...read more

    Many people believe Jesus for the things that He does. That’s not the kind of belief that Jesus is looking for.

    Second in a series looking at spiritual warfare not on the basis of popular Christian views, but on biblical teaching.

Now it looks like three. And frankly, we could spend many more weeks on the subject of spiritual warfare. As I ...read more
