What Must I Do To Achieve Eternal Life?

Contributed by Peter Fisher on Jul 19, 2010

Looking at the question that generated the story of the Good Samaritan

Jesus From Eternity, And Prophesied. (No Comparison To Muhammad) Series

Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Sep 1, 2015

As I state in the message, comparing Jesus and Muhammad is pretty unfair. Jesus is eternal. Muhammad was temporal. Jesus is God. Muhammad is mere man, and admits it. Jesus is the Son of the Father, Muhammad was a spokesman for a distant god.

JESUS: First, Last, and Best 1. Introduction There was a man named Muhammad. And there was a man named Jesus Christ. These two men call for your allegiance, one out of the history books, one by His ever-living Spirit. Their sayings and their lives are in total contradiction to one another. If one ...read more

Satan’s Limitations: Satan Is Not Omniscient, Satan Is Not Eternal Series

Contributed by Jenny Franklin on Sep 12, 2022

Job 1-2 reveals Satan’s limitations. Satan is not God’s equal opposite. Unlike God, Satan isn’t omnipresent (everywhere), omnipotent (all-powerful) or omniscient (all-knowing). This session’s focus: Satan isn’t omniscient, Satan isn’t eternal.

*********************** Satan Is Not OMNISCIENT (All-Knowing) Remember at the opening of the first scene, God asked Satan, “From where have you come?” Job 1:7 Since God is omniscient (all-knowing), He doesn’t need to ask this question. He already knew where Satan had been. Satan had been where ...read more

Life After Death: Law, Eternity, And The Changed Mind

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on May 3, 2021

There are two pieces, at least two parts of the human experience that every human will partake of: being born, and dying. That's right. The death rate for humans is 100%. I don't think people like to be reminded of that. It's a shocking thing to consider in fact.

Salvation In Christ Alone: Eternal Security Or Conditional Security?

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 27, 2021

The exegesis of scripture surrounding salvation is perhaps the most important to understand.
