    The Heart Of Jesus

    Contributed by Troy Borst on Nov 1, 2024
     | 1,266 views

    The theodicy often centers on the question: If God is omnipotent, omniscient, and benevolent, why does evil exist? Theodicy seeks to reconcile the existence of a good God with the reality of suffering and injustice in the world.

    Living In The Tree Of Life (Part 1)

     | 4,611 views

    Many believers are living in fear, guilt, shame, and condemnation. They are partaking of death instead of life; unknowingly eating from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, instead of eating from the tree of life.

    This morning I want to talk about life, not the facts of life or difficulties of life, but how to have true life in the Lord. In our United States Declaration of Independence we encounter the phrase, “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness,” which is one of the most well known statements in ...read more

    Fortunetellers, Witchcraft, And Magic

    Contributed by Dennis King on Oct 25, 2021
     | 3,513 views

    The Bible does not differentiate between “good” and “bad” magic. Scripture doesn’t distinguish whether the magic is supposed to be used for good or for bad; it’s forbidden when and if it appears from a source other than God's powers or implementations.

    Over the course of your life, you probably have been exposed to discussions on white or black magic. White magic is often considered and described as “good” magic. This is in contrast to black magic, which is a power or phenomenon evoked by evil spirits. Some people believe both variants exist. ...read more
